Amazon Black Friday deals have brought a slew of discounts to the company’s own devices. Aside from Prime Day, Black Friday is the best time to pick up things like Fire TV Sticks, Echo speakers and Kindles. In the latter category, one of the best deals is on the Kindle Colorsoft e-reader: it’s been discounted to $170, down from its usual $250 price.
The model came out earlier this year and we gave it a glowing review, calling it “the missing link in Amazon’s ereader lineup.” It’s the first Kindle ereader in color, which makes this thing one of the best ways to read comic books and graphic novels. The pinch-to-zoom feature lets you get closer to details, to make each panel really pop.

This is also a high-end ereader, color or not. We found the load times to be exceptionally fast and the same goes for turning pages. There’s an auto-adjusting front light, which comes in handy. There are also no lock screen ads by default and a single charge lasts eight full weeks of regular use.
The major downside here is the price. It’s tough to truly recommend any ereader at $250, or the original launch price of $280. It’s a lot easier to recommend at $170.
Amazon is also selling similar products at a discount, some of which made our list of the best ereaders. The base Kindle is down to $80, which is another record low. The Paperwhite is on sale for $125, yet another record low price. And keeping with the theme, the current-gen Kindle Scribe is on sale for as low as $280, the cheapest we’ve seen it.
