    Picture quality is top notch. Girlfriend was using the same kindle for 10+ years and this is exactly what she wanted for Christmas. No complaints and got a good deal on it as well.

    Even Lightning

    This is actually my first Kindle. I have only used Nook and Kobo in the past. The lighting is even with no bars or gradient. The color aspect of it is as expected and it’s lightweight. However the home screen is too crowded and junked up. There is also no direct access on the device itself to my local library ebooks available (like Kobo offers). Overall, it’s a great device with a couple of cons. I’ll keep it and use it alongside my Sage.

      Hi Mulan33! Thank you for your feedback about the Kindle Colorsoft. I'm glad to hear you're pleased with the color display quality and lightweight design, which are key features of this device. I understand your concerns about the crowded home screen interface and the lack of direct access to local library ebooks on the device itself, especially since you've experienced the convenience of this feature with Kobo devices.

      Regarding the home screen organization, you can customize your Kindle experience by adjusting your view settings—tap the three dots menu on the home screen and select different sorting options (Recent, Title, Author) or switch between Grid and List views to reduce visual clutter. You can also create Collections to organize your books by category, which helps streamline the home screen by grouping related titles together. To hide recommended content and promotional materials, go to Settings > Device Options > Advanced Options and disable "Home Screen View" recommendations if available in your region.

      For accessing library ebooks, while the Kindle doesn't offer direct library browsing on the device like Kobo, you can still borrow library books through OverDrive or Libby on your smartphone, tablet, or computer, then send them directly to your Kindle via the "Read with Kindle" option. Once borrowed and delivered, library books appear in your Kindle library just like purchased content. You can also visit your library's website on a browser, borrow books, and have them delivered to your Kindle email address for seamless access. Thank you for sharing your balanced perspective on the device's strengths and areas for improvement. AmazonDevices

    Screen reminds me of a nicer Game Boy Color, which is nice. CPU is slowly than expected, but manageable.

    Had a Kindle paper white before, this one is a bit too big for one hand to handle, not really sure about the color quality either, I guess I am not reading the right book to test
