Amazon Kindle Colorsoft Hits Record Low Price

If you missed out on the Prime Day Kindle deals, there’s good news! Best Buy is offering an excellent opportunity to snag Amazon’s first color Kindle at a fantastic price. The Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition is available for just $180, which is a generous $100 off its usual price of $280. But don’t delay; this deal ends at 11:59 PM EDT on August 6.

Interestingly, Amazon hasn’t matched this offer, keeping the e-reader at its regular price. However, they’ve applied a 10% discount to the Essential Bundle, which includes a wireless charging dock and a plant-based leather cover.

The Colorsoft Signature Edition, Amazon’s first e-reader featuring a color E Ink panel, is perfect for readers who enjoy manga, color comics, illustrated books, and graphic novels. Its 7-inch glare-free display comes with an auto-adjusting front light and adjustable Warm Light, although it lacks the dark mode found in its monochrome siblings. With 32GB of storage, you can easily keep thousands of books at your fingertips. Plus, its IPX8 certification allows for worry-free reading by the pool or beach.

Although the battery life of eight weeks is four weeks shorter than the Paperwhite’s, it’s still impressive compared to typical electronics. The device supports both USB-C and wireless charging, along with Bluetooth connectivity, so you can pair your headphones and enjoy audiobooks via Audible.

For those looking for a more budget-friendly option, Amazon offers a cheaper version of the Colorsoft for $250. This model comes with half the storage and does away with wireless charging and the auto-adjusting front light.
