- Amazon officially announced the new 2024 Kindle lineup but pulled down the announcement.
- The new devices include the Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition, the first Kindle-branded e-reader with a color display.
- Other refreshes include new versions of the Kindle Scribe, Kindle Paperwhite, and the Kindle.
Kindles are great e-reading devices thanks to their lightweight design, distraction-free UX, insane battery life, and easy access to books and digital media. However, Amazon has largely stuck to black-and-white displays for its e-readers, shunning color to focus squarely on a great text-reading experience. But change seems to be on the horizon, as the company has announced (and unannounced) its first color Kindle, the Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition.
Amazon prematurely announced four new Kindle e-readers, only to pull down the announcement, although The Verge summarizes all that was presented. It’s possible that Amazon will reannounce the device later on. Considering this was an official announcement, one can place a high degree of confidence in it.
