The Kindle Colorsoft is a legitimate product from Amazon, but it is widely considered an underwhelming first-generation device. It suffers from significant screen quality issues, such as yellow banding, and lacks the crisp text and battery performance of the more affordable Kindle Paperwhite. Most reviewers recommend sticking with the Paperwhite unless you have a specific, non-negotiable need for color on an e-reader.
