Kindle Colorsoft Ereader Gets First Major Discount At Amazon
Amazon's recently released Kindle Colorsoft is on sale for a substantial discount for the first time since its release last October. For a limited time, you can get Amazon's first full-color e-ink tablet for $230, down from $280. The Prime-exclusive discount gets even better if you have an eligible trade-in device. If you trade-in an old device--it doesn't need to be a Kindle--you'll save an additional 20%.
If you want to take notes on your Kindle, Amazon has preowned Kindle Scribe ereaders in like-new condition for as low as $234. You can also secure steep discounts on Kindle Fire HD tablets.
Kindle Colorsoft
$230 (was $280) | Extra 20% off with trade-in
The Kindle Colorsoft has a 7-inch full-color display, eight weeks of battery life, and a front light that automatically adjusts to your surroundings. If you enjoy saving passages in books, the Colorsoft has the added benefit of letting you highlight text in color, making it easier than ever to organize important sentences you want to return to later.
Other notable features of the Colorsoft include support for wireless charging, no ads on the lock screen, and 32GB of storage. If you like reading by the pool or relaxing in the bath, the Colorsoft ereader is waterproof and carries an IPX8 water resistance rating, which means it can be fully submerged in water at a depth of 6.5 feet for up to 60 minutes.
The biggest reason to pick up the Colorsoft is if you’re interested in making the jump to digital comic books and graphic novels. Its color display is leagues better for the format than black and white ereaders like the standard Kindle--and at $230, it’s easier to recommend.
As mentioned, you can save even more with an eligible trade-in item. You'll automatically save an additional 20%, even if you send Amazon a cheap device like a Fire Stick. The 20% is calculated from the sale price, so in this case, you'll save an extra $46 simply for trading in any eligible device. At the moment, that means the Colorsoft's price drops to $184.
