Finally, color Kindle. Amazon, the dominant force in readers, has finally brought a color eink to its line of devices — and we’ve reviewed it. Kindle Colorsoft is a solid premium reader ideal for readers of comics and graphic novels. The company has improved the page-turning speed and the handy pinch-to-zoom function makes it easy to fully enjoy the detailed images.
But $280 is expensive. More expensive than competing color readers, even. However, it’s hard to argue with the convenience and ubiquity of the Kindle ecosystem. The library is seemingly endless (with regular discounts on books and titles you plan to read), complete with Prime Reading and Kindle Unlimited. If you are tempted, meet us detailed review and comparisons with other readers.

With excellent battery life and solid image quality, the only downside is slightly less sharp video. However, if low-light performance is key, jump straight to the Action 5 Pro. DJI’s new action camera costs $350, while the Hero 13 Pro and Insta360’s Ace Pro 2 cost $400. DJI excels in both battery life and is on par with its competitors when it comes to stabilization.
They also have slightly brighter screens and better webcams.
After the 24-inch iMac, and then the adorable new Mac mini, Apple is also bringing the M4 chips to the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro. And in addition to the basic M4 chip and M4 Pro, they can also be configured with the newly announced M4 Max. In addition to the internal specification boost, the new MacBook Pros have slightly brighter screens that can reach 1,000 nits of SDR brightness (up from 600 nits before), and there’s also the option of a nano-textured display that dramatically reduces glare for working people. in very bright environments or in direct sunlight.
This is the perfect Halloween announcement.
It doesn’t glow at night, but it shines.
