It’s been big few days for Amazon’s popular range of e-readers with the online retail giant unveiling four new devices. There’s an update for everyone in this latest release including a faster entry-level Kindle which gets a striking new Matcha (green) colour as well as feature-packed upgrade to the ultimate Kindle Scribe which now gets a new look with white bezels along with a screen that feels more like writing on paper when you scribble using the stylus.

Perhaps the most eye-catching of the Amazon products is the new Kindle Colorsoft which does exactly what it says on the tin. Yes, for the first time ever, the Kindle is ditching its usual black-and-white visuals and now includes a colour screen which means you get to see glossy book covers in all of their glory.

It’s also possible to view photos and mark up books using coloured highlights.

Amazon says that its Colorsoft display includes a new light-guide with nitride LEDs that, when combined with its custom algorithms, enhance colour and increase brightness, all without washing out details.

It’s also waterproof so you can use it in the bath or beach without having to worry.
