Summary

Amazon recently unveiled its refreshed Kindle lineup, introducing a new basic Kindle, Paperwhite, and Colorsoft. The new Kindle Colorsoft starts at $290, while the Signature Edition, which I’ve spent the past few weeks testing, costs $320. The base model comes with 16GB of storage, while the Signature Edition doubles that to 32GB and is available in graphite or a maroon-like Fig finish with an aluminum back. Amazon first brought color to its Kindle lineup in 2024 with the launch of the original Colorsoft.
