As part of the now live Big Spring Sale, and joining the deals we are tracking on the “works with Alexa+” smart displays and speakers from $30, Amazon is now offering its best price ever on the Kindle Colorsoft reader. You’ll now find the new Amazon Kindle Colorsoft down at $224.99 shipped from the regular $280 list price to deliver the best deal we have tracked since its release last fall as part of the latest slate of new Kindles. 

We have only seen a couple of chances to save on the new Colorsoft since its debut, both of which landed the new color tablet at its previous low of $230. Today’s deal, however, is taking things down a notch further to deliver a new all-time low as part of the Big Spring Sale

The Kindle Colorsoft is the very first model to feature a color display. It debuted alongside the the “reimagined” Kindle Scribe and the fastest Paperwhite model ever back in October 2024 – both of these models are also now on sale for the Big Spring Sale event as well. 

The Colorsoft was, for many, the real headliner model in the new lineup, delivering the first Kindle reader with a color display – you can now browse book covers in full color on both the Kindle store and within your personal library, not to mention full color book photos and images alongside the ability to “add color highlights that you can easily search later.”

It comes equipped with an oxide backplane-equipped 7-inch display said to deliver a higher-contract viewing experience in both black and white and full color elements – “high contrast, fast page turns, an auto-adjusting front light, and weeks of battery life.” The 8 weeks of battery life and waterproof design join the usual instant access to “over 15 million titles in the Kindle Store worldwide.” 

A complete rundown of all the new Kindle models is at the ready in our launch coverage right here

Kindle Colorsoft features:

  • Read in color – The new 7″ Colorsoft display is high-contrast and easy on the eyes, with paper-like color that brings covers and content to life.
  • Color your pages – Highlight your favorite scenes in yellow, orange, blue, and pink.
  • Marathon reading – A single charge via USB-C lasts up to 8 weeks, or power up with the wireless charging dock (sold separately).
  • Adapts to your surroundings – The glare-free display and auto-adjusting front light let you read in the brightest sunlight or late into the night.
  • Waterproof and worry-free – Take your stories by the pool, in the bath, or anywhere in between.
  • Massive selection – Instantly access over 15 million titles in the Kindle Store worldwide, and add a Kindle Unlimited subscription for all-you-can read access to a catalog including best sellers.
  • A brand-new experience – The Kindle Colorsoft display is optimized for reading in color and is different from the Kindle Paperwhite display, which is optimized for black and white reading.
