The Kindle Colorsoft is Amazon’s first full-color e-reader, but recent reports highlight a mysterious yellow bar at the bottom of the screen. Here’s what you need to know.
Imagine investing nearly $300 in the first full-color Kindle, only to notice a subtle yellow tint at the bottom of the screen that doesn’t seem to go away. This has been a common observation shared by new Kindle Colorsoft users on social media, with responses ranging from mild annoyance to requests for refunds.
Amazon introduced the Kindle Colorsoft a few weeks ago, sparking excitement among fans. This new full-color Kindle is especially appealing for readers of comics and graphic novels, and even those upgrading from older Kindles can now enjoy vibrant, full-color book covers.
This shouldn’t stop customers from buying the new full-color Kindle. However, if the sight of the yellow tinge bothered me enough to return a device because of it, I’d hold off on buying a Kindle Colorsoft until the issue was fixed.
