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.

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.

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

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

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.

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.
