Amazon Unveils New Kindle Lineup Featuring the First Color Kindle and Reimagined Kindle Scribe



Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition


The Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition introduces color to Kindle readers for the first time. The new display allows users to browse book covers, view photos, and highlight text in color. It maintains key Kindle features, such as high contrast, fast page turns, and weeks of battery life.

The device uses an oxide backplane, optimized LED lighting, and algorithms to ensure sharp, vibrant colors without washing out detail. Readers can zoom into images without pixelation and switch between standard and vibrant color modes. Wireless charging, water resistance, and up to eight weeks of battery life make the Colorsoft practical for everyday use. It is available for pre-order at $279.99, with shipping starting October 30.

Kindle Scribe


The Kindle Scribe merges e-reading with note-taking by letting users write directly on pages using its Active Canvas feature. Notes remain visible and anchored to their location, even if the text layout changes. The device comes with a Premium Pen that feels well-balanced and includes a soft eraser tip.


An AI-powered notebook feature allows for handwritten notes to be summarized into concise bullet points, which can be easily shared. The Kindle Scribe is available for pre-order starting at $399.99 and will begin shipping on December 4.

The new Kindle Paperwhite features 25% faster page turns and improved responsiveness. A 7-inch display provides a larger reading area, while the thin design keeps it lightweight and easy to handle. The screen uses an oxide TFT (thin-film transistor) for high contrast, making text and images sharp and clear.

This version is waterproof and offers up to three months of battery life. It comes in Raspberry, Jade, and Black, with a Signature Edition offering 32 GB of storage, wireless charging, and an auto-adjusting front light for $199.99.
