This advanced technology enhances the reading experience with vibrant, paper-like colors and high contrast, making it ideal for comic books, photos, and highlighting text in various hues.
Alongside the Kindle Colorsoft, Amazon has also unveiled the second-generation Kindle Scribe (2024), as well as updated versions of the Kindle Paperwhite (2024) and the entry-level Kindle.
