## Description

desertcart Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition (32 GB) – With colour display, auto-adjusting front light, wireless charging and long battery life + Kindle Unlimited : desertcart.co.uk

Review: Colorsoft is beautiful. No issues with my purchase 1/25 - Its not often I am an early adopter of new technology but a coloured e-reader or Kindle has been something that has been on my own technology wish-list for several years. Finally this year through Kobo with its Clara and Libra Color (colour from here on out). I am well entrenched in the desertcart ecosystem and due to my vast library and pretty much positive experience I am happy to stay there too. I will say that prior to a colour reader from desertcart, the Kobo did catch my eye and I was almost going to get one but decided to wait. They look a fun device but for me it is missing the certain something and it looks not as premium or well made as a Kindle (no joke intended). Also I have searched for many books I own on Kindle on the Kobo store and not found them available so that was another mark against the Kobo. Then desertcart announced the Kindle Colorsoft and my dream came true… Then it came out and was what people feared it to be a rushed product that was blighted by issues since launching. Notably a yellow band across the screen and (something common to both Kobo and Kindle) dead pixels. Due to the backlash and negative feedback the device has been limited in availability and taken off shelves up until just before Christmas (typically when all presents have been decided and bought). I decided I deserved a New Years gift and it was in stock so on the 4th January I ordered it expecting it the 7th and to my surprise it arrived on the 5th and dear reader… She is beautiful! Is she perfect? No, but we can overlook all that. It was with baited breathe I waited for the delivery and opened it, having read reviews and posts and seeing other peoples experiences I was expecting at least a hint of yellow banding but to my surprise it is perfect. No yellowing or dead pixels at all. I have been using it for a few days now and I have to say I am pretty impressed with it so far. It is not perfect but it is a wonderful step into the World of Colour and e-readers. Price It is an expensive piece of kit? Worth it? That is subjective and for me yes it is worth it and I will enjoy using this device and get value from it and many years of use. I expect it to be another 2 or 3 years before a second coloured Kindle. Given the amount of issues with QC I would not keep a premium product at this price point unless it was 100% perfect. I wouldn’t settle if it was just a little yellow etc. Screen With the new technology going into this, it is going to look a little different to the previous models of Kindle, it is a completely new technology. The screen looks papery, not as crisp and clear as a normal Kindle but not too bad either. Looks a bit like thin tracing paper laid over the screen. Colour is where this shines and compared to Kobo it looks a lot more vivid and clear and less ghosting when zooming. The implementation of the technology has been superior in Kindle. The colours pop nicely and compared to the greyscale normal of the kindle the colours do make a difference. Contrast is where it is let down as it is very dark and renders the colours not too good especially the darker it is. I do prefer my brightness up. How the screen is affected by the sun I don’t know yet and haven’t tried (UK here!). Images are not glossy like a magazine, similar to a news paper, if you want vivid images read on a tablet with Kindle App. I did expect more from it and the lock screen, it is cool to see the cover and in colour but like all Kindles the lock screen isn’t backlit so you don’t really see the colour. If there are future devices I would love to see a wake function for the lock screen where the screen can brighten and show off the cover without opening the Kindle. Performance Excellent performance, feels more snappy and quicker. Not had any issues with anything especially once all the indexing was completed. No stuttering or ghosting encountered. Other I do have the Jade vegan case to go with the Kindle, my first desertcart case having only ever used third party cases and if feels good quality and well made. Certainly feels a premium product to go with the Colorsoft. A big negative is that with the generation of Kindles (possibly the last too) desertcart has done away with the “Download and Transfer” feature for the new models. Which means you can no longer download a copy of your purchased titles to transfer via USB. It still works for older models but not the new ones. Overall A great device and addition to the Kindle and e-reader family but a device that can be so much more. For the first one it is an admirable effort and hopefully can be built upon and do more with it. Imagine a Kindle Scribe Colour or a Kindle Oasis Colour? Would that be more making the Kindle a tablet and too similar to a Fire tablet? Where do you draw the line? For me some slight adjustments to this and you have a perfect reader. The same screen technology with the Scribe = perfect. Perhaps an illumination feature for the lock screen to show off the book covers. Perhaps too the long requested buttons? Could also have a toggle for Colour/B&W? So many possibilities. All in all a great product and certainly a base to build from
Review: Completely won over, eventually - I bought the Colorsoft at launch. On my settings I don’t have an issue with a yellow band as do some other reviewers although there’s a barely detectable tint at the bottom of the screen. Despite my enchantment with the pastel colours, I didn’t take to it at first, comparing it unfavourably with the Oasis. The reason was habit. I’ve had to unlearn the muscle memory I’d developed for the ‘cradle hold’ I used for the physically wider Oasis. Adapting was a slow process of becoming conscious of these habits before letting go of them to begin to appreciate differences as improvements, and for a while I flipped back and forth between Oasis and Colorsoft. The Colorsoft is narrower than the Oasis so there are more ways of holding it that avoid fouling the off switch on the bottom edge (unintentionally switching it off when not using a case, my preference). Presumably it’s there for aesthetic reasons so that the hardware ‘controls’ (on switch, charging port, LED) are grouped together, in a departure from the laudable asymmetry of the Oasis. After finding it frustrating because I had grown accustomed to an on/off switch at the top, on the Oasis, and not having auto rotate for the display, I came to accept the choice. Auto rotate is arguably unnecessary since the device is symmetrical. There is a landscape view, which you can set manually (not seemingly automatic when zooming diagrams, as with the Oasis). I didn’t use a case for the Oasis: it has a metal body that slips in and out of a jacket pocket when on the move. An index finger poised at the top easily switched it on or off without having to rely on a case’s auto wake function. The narrower Colorsoft slips into a greater variety of pockets, (upside down when without a case, to avoid its own weight switching it on). I missed the physical, and satisfying to operate, page turn buttons on the Oasis where you can keep a finger rested on the ‘next’ button throughout your reading or slip it down to hit the back button. The Colorsoft touchscreen seems more responsive and reliable than previous versions, at the expense of grubbiness (fingers on screen rather than buttons), but it’s only recently that I noticed (a software upgrade?) the double tap (back or sides of body) for page turning (because there’s an accelerometer, although that doesn’t yet seem to activate anything else). I have enabled page turn animation (Font > More tab, scroll down) and the two used together come close to the feel of physically turning a page. The understated colour is hard to resist even when most of my reading is b&w. Colour in the covers, and highlighting, becomes something you miss: it’s a pleasant surprise to come across a hyperlink among black text, and find it displayed in blue, and the occasional cookbook is more rewarding with colour photographs or illustrations, in place of monochrome. Pages (or rather, their appearance beneath the mask on the glass front) are not squared off at their corners as on the Oasis, they have small radiuses not generally noticeable (a tad more pronounced than those of the earlier PaperWhite Signature, I see) but perhaps adding an unconscious impression of greater quality. It’s around 30 grams heavier than the Oasis, plus the effect if using a case. Its display is murkier when off (perhaps misleading some reviewers to think book covers aren’t displaying in colour), compared with the Oasis display, though there’s negligible difference when using the backlight. I can barely see the yellow at the bottom of the screen with my preferred screen settings. I’ve only once had a problem with a Kindle (a string of dead pixels creating a horizontal line across the screen of a Scribe) across many models. I’m picky but perhaps have been lucky. (People complained about uneven lighting on the first screen-lit versions, which I found settled within minutes of first use, maybe as the strip of LED lights equalised). It’s a neat package overall, most of the best improvements over time have been incorporated: Faster, Narrower, Waterproof, USB C. Book covers display in colour when off, without having to switch to vibrant as one reviewer suggests (though with the screen light also necessarily off, it’s not always apparent. Easier to see under artificial light, or maybe strong daylight). Sometimes it’s unexpected pleasure when a cover is attractive, for example Barbara Pym’s Excellent Women, or Tokyo Express. It seems faster than earlier models, but not quite fast enough to make viewing graphic novels seamless. I tried it with one of the Stéphane Heuet volumes of Proust, where you have to use the zoom facility (particularly because the pages are noticeably smaller than the screen, perhaps victim of aspect ratios) and while you don’t have to wait for the zoom, you do for a second for the frame colours to resolve.
