Amazon has refreshed its entire Kindle e-reader family in time for the holidays.
That really shakes things up when it comes to choosing thebest Kindleto buy this year.
There’s a new Matcha (green) colour and it is capable of lasting for “weeks” on a single charge.
The Kindle Paperwhite, which wasalso accidentally posted on eBaybefore being officially launched, also gets an upgrade, with faster page turns and speed of use.
An oxide thin-film transistor enables higher contrast than before, while the screen itself has grown in size – up to 7-inches.
It comes in Raspberry, Jade and Black colours, while a Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition has also launched, with double the storage (32GB) and an auto-adjusting front light. It comes in Metallic Raspberry, Metallic Jade and Metallic Black.

Amazon goes all Colorsoft
Now onto the all-new entrant to the family. The Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition (as it’s called) has all the best properties of its stablemates – high contrast, fast page turning, auto-adjusting front light and long battery life (up to eight weeks) but throws full-colour into the mix.

The 7-inch screen is capable of showing colour books and comics in 150ppi, while the resolution is upped to 300ppi for regular black and white text.
Last but certainly not least, the Kindle Scribe has had a facelift. It now comes with a flush-front display with white borders and an upgraded Premium Pen.

The screen size is the same – 10.2-inches and 300ppi – but is a touch more paper-like to draw and write on. You can now write in eBooks too, to take notes or circle passages, thanks to an Active Canvas feature.
It;s also worth pointing out that there are new Kindle Paperwhite Kids and Kindle Kids editions too.
