Kindle Colorsoft Review: Great Device, But Wait for a Sale
I have been a Kindle user for over 20 years and love these devices. I left my Kindle Paperwhite in a foreign country, and it didn’t make sense to have it shipped back to me, so I went looking for a new Kindle. I had been following the release of the Kindle Colorsoft before I lost my device. I thought it was priced high and saw there were issues with the yellow bar, but it still looked like a good iteration of Kindle technology. When I lost my Kindle Paperwhite, there happened to be a sale on the new Kindle Colorsoft. I’ve had the Colorsoft for just under a month and have read multiple books on it. Here are my thoughts:Overall Quality: I think this is a great Kindle. The software works well, and it feels like an upgrade over the Kindle Paperwhite I lost. I like the 7-inch size of the Colorsoft—it’s easy to hold and doesn’t feel heavy. I’ve never had issues with Kindles breaking or lacking durability, and the Colorsoft feels just as sturdy as other versions I’ve owned.The Color Display: When I was showing my new Kindle to one of my children, he remarked, “The color makes it look like artwork”—it wowed him. I really like the color display. Yes, the colors are muted, but that’s what makes it so appealing, in my opinion. I’ve read picture books with my Colorsoft and thought the colors were excellent. If I wanted more vibrant colors, I would read on my phone or tablet, but I use my Kindle specifically to avoid reading on those devices. One review I read mentioned that the Colorsoft was easy on the eyes, and I agree.Price: I think the price is too high at full retail. I wouldn’t have bought it at the original price, but I was able to get it on sale and also do a trade-in, which finally made it worthwhile for me.Yellow Bar Issue: I haven’t encountered this problem yet. I’ll update my review if it appears.Overall: I really like the Colorsoft and gave it 5 stars because it’s a great device and I was able to purchase it at a reasonable price.

Great E-reader for those who like to see the colors
I wish the colors were brighter but the battery is really GREAT! I absolutely love my kindle colorsoft. This is my second kindle. I have the paper white as well and I love the colors of the colorsoft especially with highlights and seeing the covers. It’s more appealing to the eyes when picking a book. I think the size is perfect, but I would love to see it larger, it is super light weight and doesn’t hurt your wrist holding it. It’s super easy to navigate and set up! I wish you could listen to the audio book WHILE reading but hopefully that’ll be an update soon! As far as functionality it is great for those who are avid readers because it allows you to read on the go and fits in your smaller purses perfectly.It works for what it’s used for! I enjoy having hundreds of books at my fingertips while on the go and traveling without having to bring and carry a ton of books! I average 40-60 books a month so the storage is more than enough!

Love it.
I bought it for my wife, she loves it. It hits the perfect trifecta of reading pleasure: incredibly lightweight for long sessions, a beautiful and gentle soft color screen that is easy on the eyes, and phenomenal battery life that lets you forget the charger exists. It’s the perfect companion for any book lover.

Definitely worth it!”
I’m really impressed with the Kindle Colorsoft. The screen is bright, colorful, and easy on the eyes, even during long reading sessions. The adjustable warm light is a great touch, and the device feels lightweight and comfortable to hold. Battery life is solid, and having no ads makes the experience even better. Definitely worth it!”

New and Improved – Just Get It!!!
1000x better than the Kobo Libra Color. With the kobo I experienced so much eye strain and migraines. With this new colorsoft, I feel like I am reading on the paperwhite. They eye comfortably that this device provides is amazing. The responsiveness of this device is fast. I have not experienced any freezing. The device works the way it’s supposed to work.When it comes to screen quality, it does look like I’m reading an actual page off of a physical book. There is a tinge of graininess but the right kind of graininess (again, like an actual page out of a book). The text is still readable and surprisingly sharp. The battery life could be a bit better but remember, it’s a colored device and that requires upping the brightness a bit. Even with the light off, the device is still readable like a regular paperwhite.I was lucky to only have spent a little bit on the device because I had some credits including the trade in credits but apart from that, I would say it is a little bit pricey especially because there are no turn page buttons.!!!!!!!!!THERE IS NO YELLOW BAND!!!!!!!!!!This is the best color device to have if you are looking for a device that provides color and comfortability… hands down.And lastly, there’s only a slight difference when it comes to changing between standard and vivid. The colors look amazing either way!I am so happy with my device and if you are contemplating whether to get it or not… just get it. You won’t be disappointed! Just bear in mind that it’s “16 gb.” Which in reality, you only get about 10 gbs free storage. I mainly only read text only books so this isn’t a problem for me.
