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.

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Read in any light: Adjust the display from white to amber to read in bright sunlight or in the dark.
  • 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.
  • Try the Page Color: Try the Page Color feature to invert the black text and white background of pages inside books. While different than Dark Mode, it enables comfortable reading while still displaying colorful images and covers.

Q: Does this kindle have wirless charging?

A: Hi Becka25, No the Kindle Colorsoft 16GB does not have wireless charging. However, the upgraded Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition 32GB does support wireless charging along with additional features like auto-adjusting front light, double the storage, and extended battery life (up to 10 weeks vs 8 weeks). Both models charge via USB-C, but if wireless charging is important to you, the Signature Edition is the way to go. You can use it with the Made for Amazon Wireless Charging Dock for convenient charging. Thanks for reaching out, I hope this information helps!

Q: Does this kindle comes with AD free?

A: Hello Carla. Thank you for your question. Yes, this Kindle Colorsoft 16GB comes completely ad-free! You won't see any special offers or advertisements on your lock screen, so you'll have a clean and uninterrupted reading experience from the moment you set it up. Hope this helps and have a great day!

Q: Can. Highlight sentences in color

A: Hello Paxo! Thank you for your question. Yes, the Kindle Colorsoft allows you to highlight text in different colors while reading. Since this model features a color display, you can choose from various highlight colors to organize your notes and mark important passages in ways that are meaningful to you. This can be especially helpful for studying or keeping track of different types of information in your books. I hope that helps and have a great day!

Q: is this add free?

A: Hello kind and thank you for your question! Yes, the Kindle Colorsoft is ad free. Hope this helps! Have a great day!

Q: Can you take notes?

A: Hello TJG. Thank you for your question. Yes! The Kindle Colorsoft allows you to take notes while reading using the on-screen keyboard. You can add text notes, create bookmarks, and make highlights in your books. These annotations will sync across your other devices when you're signed into your Amazon account. However, please note that this model doesn't support handwritten notes since it doesn't come with a stylus - if you're specifically looking for handwriting capability, you might want to consider the Kindle Scribe instead. Hope this helps and have a great day!

Q: what generation is this item

A: Hello and thank you for your question! This Amazon Kindle Colorsoft is the 1st Generation - 2025 edition. Hope this helps! Have a great day!

Q: Can I connect to the internet and check emails, go on Facebook etc.?

A: Hi Mazzieman! The Kindle Colorsoft is primarily designed for reading, and doesn't support apps or most modern websites. If you are looking for a device that's great for reading on the go but still allows internet browsing, I'd suggest checking out the Fire HD 8 tablet. It comes with the Kindle app built-in, but also allows app downloads from the Amazon App Store and features a full web browser! I hope that helps, have a great rest of your day!

Q: Will it connect to my google play books account

A: Hello Multiuse and thank you for your question! No, the Amazon Kindle Colorsoft does not connect to the Google Play store, it connects to the Amazon Kindle Book Store. Hope this helps! Have a great day!
