    Good for Focused Reading, Some Features Fell Short

    This is my first time owning a Kindle, so I kind of went all out. I’m not a big reader, but I’m trying to make it a habit, and this device definitely helps with that. The color is very nice, and even my coworker—who has an older Kindle—loved it so much that it made her want to upgrade. That said, I was a little disappointed with a few things. I thought audiobooks would work more like a read-along where you can follow the words on the page, but it feels more like listening to a podcast. I also hoped I could tap on a word and have it pronounced, but the only way to do that is through accessibility mode, which talks nonstop and requires double-tapping for everything. If that mode were customizable, this would be an amazing device.

    I absolutely love this Kindle. It is brighter and more vibrant than my black-and-white Kindle paper white. I have both. But I do enjoy having the availability to notate and highlight in color. Though I wish it was a bit more vibrant. I like the look of it. I also wish they had different highlighter colors.

    An absolute amazing piece of tech. Has made reading far more enjoyable again and the hint of color just makes it a bit more awesome. Getting it on sale was an even bigger bonus.

    I love it! The picture makes it seem like the reader is large, but it can fit into a medium bag. The battery is long lasting, I can highlight, and there's a dictionary built in. A great purchase!

    Got the Colorsoft version for my wife. She loves it and I’m kinda jealous! Having color is nice for those books that have maps or other images that reference various things. Great battery life in the same small factor as the paper soft.

    Amazing item! Got it as a gift for my wife and she's absolutely loved i, we've been able to save so much money on buying books and having such a diverse library on the kindle really allowed her to find new books she wouldn't of read.
