The Amazon Kindle Colorsoft allows you to read your comics and other colorful books on the go. Read the review to find out whether it's worth the $280 price tag.

Early adopters of the Kindle Colorsoft e-reader are complaining of screen issues, and Amazon is responding by delaying the product's launch.

The new Paperwhite features a slightly larger screen, improved performance and slightly better contrast. Should you ditch your old Kindle for it?

Amazon is cancelling the shipping of their first color e-reader, the Kindle Colorsoft. They are suspending the delivery for up to a week or more. Anyone who ordered or pre-ordered the device will not receive it until November 9th to 18th in the US and November 26th in the United Kingdom.

This week started with reports from owners of the new Kindle Colorsoft e-reader claiming that a distracting yellow band appeared at the bottom of the screen. Amazon acknowledged that they were aware of the issue.

A Reddit user posted a thread with images (see below), saying it’s most obvious when the Kindle “is supposed to be evenly lit and colored like a piece of paper.” Many others with the same issue say they’ve exchanged their Colorsoft for a new one or simply returned it.

The Kindle Colorsoft only just launched, and it seems that this new color-screen e-reader has been nothing but beset by problems.

As its name suggests, the $199.99 Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition is an upgraded version of the $159.99 Paperwhite, both of which have been refreshed for 2024. Like the latest Paperwhite, it offers a slightly larger screen and faster performance than the 2021 model.

Amazon says it’s working to fix issues with the Kindle Colorsoft, its first color e-reader, following complaints from early buyers that a yellow band of discoloration appears on the bottom of the display.
