As part of Amazon’s official Black Friday sale, you can pick up the new 16GB Kindle Colorsoft tablet at an absolute bargain. It’s currently at a new lower price, making it the most affordable than ever. It’s down to $169.99, saving you $80 off its original listed price of $250. This newer model of the popular Kindle Colorsoft just released earlier this year, so if you’ve been eyeing one for easy reading, now’s the perfect time to grab one at a discount before the holidays.
The 16GB Kindle Colorsoft Is On Sale Now
The Kindle Colorsoft is one of the best ways to read comics and save space on your bookshelf. The 7-inch high-contrast display doesn’t strain your eyes too badly, so reading for extended sessions is fairly comfortable. You can highlight sections of your book or graphic novel using various colors, and its optimized screen for reading in color helps panels pop. A single charge can last up to eight weeks, and its adjustable display settings allows you to read in dark or bright settings with ease.
Digital comics are a great alternative to physical comics, as compendiums and omnibuses are typically some of the largest books around. With a Kindle Unlimited subscription, you’ll have thousands of comics, manga, and other graphic novels available to you at the press of a finger. Check out our Kindle Unlimited subscription guide to figure out which tier makes the most sense for you. There are also plenty of other ways to read free comics online if you’re not interested in a subscription service.
The Best Kindles at Amazon
We haven’t quite seen Kindles drop this far in price since July’s Prime Day, but it looks like Amazon is offering even better deals for Black Friday 2025. Compared to the Kindle Colorsoft, regular Kindle tablets are optimized for black and white reading, so it’s generally recommended to leave comics and magazines to the Colorsoft. You can also pick from thousands of books if you decide to sign up for Kindle Unlimited subscription, so no matter which Kindle option you go for, the library of available books is endless. You check out our best Kindle deals at Amazon explainer to figure out which tablet suits you.
