  • Colorsoft color experience is what I wanted
Option: Without Kindle Unlimited
I purchased the Amazon Kindle Colorsoft so I could have color images and graphics on many textbooks in my collection, as well as the ability to highlight in different colors, a feature I used a lot on my Android Kindle app but couldn't with my 2021 Paperwhite. The book covers are nice in color, too, bringing a level of dimension to my library that I enjoy a lot. I am giving this five stars as it satisfies my main objectives: The color is good, color highlighting excellent, and the speed of page turns and library browsing is excellent (noticeably faster than my 2021 Paperwhite). The only thing missing is a satisfying "dark mode," as it only affects the book pages and not the whole interface as with the Paperwhite. Perhaps this will change in a future update, but it isn't a big issue for me and the white text on a black background is still excellent for night reading, especially with the amber glow turned to the max. Color highlighting in this mode is also excellent. I do have some caveats, however: The battery drains a lot quicker than the Paperwhite, and the 32GB storage fills up a lot quicker. Also, the "Vivid" color setting seems to switch back to "Standard" sporadically, even if it still says "Vivid" is selected (this might be happening after I select a Restart). These are not serious issues as I just need to charge more frequently and will refrain from downloading my whole library as space fills up, and a reset to "Vivid" handles the color issue until a software fix is available (assuming this isn't just my imagination). In addition, the price is very high for what it offers, so unless color is very important to someone (to view comics, highlighting in color, etc.), the new 2024 Paperwhite might be the better option. UPDATE: An unfortunate issue a lot of reviews have mentioned is a yellow band at the bottom of the screen. At first, I didn't think my Colorsoft had this issue, but now I see a very faint band at the bottom of the screen when reading with black text on a white background. To be fair, I might not have noticed this without the issue being pointed out, and it is a lot less noticeable than some photos I've seen (I have the warmth setting set to 10 normally, which might camouflage the band a little). It looks to me like an issue of the calibration of the LEDs as it doesn't appear when the backlight is off. It is also undetectable with images and using the white test on a black background. Still, it is there, and I am requesting a replacement for when the issue is resolved. I'm keeping my review 5-stars because Amazon has been very responsive regarding this yellow banding issue. Contacting customer service via a chat was a simple process and a replacement request was quickly queued up (replacements, alas, aren't available yet while the underlying issue is being investigated and resolved), and I can keep using my current Colorsoft in the meantime (while noticeable, the yellow band isn't distracting while I read). One of the reasons I keep coming to Amazon is their fantastic customer service, and this is a good example of them doing what they can for an unfortunate situation. UPDATE #2: I received my replacement Kindle Colorsoft and the yellow banding issue is resolved. Again, I feel the customer service response to this issue was excellent and it is a primary reason I continue to use Amazon. ... show more

  • Looks like paper!
Option: Without Kindle Unlimited
This is my first kindle. I had seen them in the wild and always scoffed at the idea of an reader. I have always been the type to buy the book and either add it to my bookshelf or donate it when done. But recently I started reading in the Kindle app on my phone. Not sure why, maybe it was my mom retiring and using her kindle Paperwhite. But as I started reading books on my phone I decided getting a kindle was that next step. I weighed the Paperwhite against the color soft and the price difference left me leaning to the color soft. The black and white doesn't look much different than my mom's Paperwhite but the color is very soft in tone as the name implies. I was not surprised at that as there is many reviews online that show the color. So why color? Well if you like to read the occasional comic or graphic novel or just like to see some color covers or color highlights then the color soft is for you. If color is not the issue then go with the Paperwhite. As for memory, I am glad I got the 32gb model. After the Kindle pre installed software and such you are left with 25 gb. Black and White text books are only a few mega bites but a graphic novel is easily 250 megabytes. Of course you can always remove your books while still seeing them in your library. I did take Amazon up on the Kindle unlimited trial. Not sure I will renew as between work and my kids I can only read 3 or 4 books a month. Buying your books has the benefit of reading them at any time without a subscription and books are only 3 to 5 dollars. If you read several books a week then Kindle unlimited is for you. The colosoft is very sharp and clear. Text is customizable by size and font. Works good in sunlight and I like that it's waterproof. Not that I am taking it to the pool but if I split my drink I would know I am ok. I know there is a lot of reviews that mention the yellow bar but my Kindle has none of that so I assume that has been resolved. My only minor issue with the Kindle is there is a faint white halo around the border where you can kind of see the backlight shining through but is barely noticable once you start reading and is less of a defect than it is how it is designed. The screen is a nice glare free matt finish and the Kindle case is easily installed and a nice accessory. The battery life is sufficient but I feel like the way the battery life is advertised is a bit false. They say 8 weeks but apparently that's based on 30 minutes a day of reading. Who reads 30 minutes a day. I am a light reader and even I read more than 30 minutes a day. I would say you get about 24 hours of reading. Which is still pretty decent. Overall I would give it 4.5 out of 5 stars. I really like my Kindle and it feels like I am reading from a paper book. ... show more
