Amazon has refreshed its Kindle lineup with three new models: the Kindle 12th Gen, Kindle Paperwhite 7th Gen and Kindle Colorsoft 2nd Gen.
All three bring thinner and lighter designs, updated colors, and longer battery life. Amazon is also offering aluminum-backed versions across the lineup.
Kindle 12th Gen
The standard Kindle keeps its 6-inch e-ink display, but now uses more rounded corners and a flush front design.
The new color options include Ube, Graphite, Alpine Sky and Seaglass Green. The Alpine Sky and Seaglass Green versions use aluminum backs.
The new Kindle is 1mm thinner than the previous model. Plastic versions weigh 140g, while the aluminum-backed variants are around 20g heavier.
Amazon also claims books open 30% faster than on the previous-generation Kindle. The power button has moved to the right side, while battery life is rated at up to six weeks.
The 16GB Ube and Graphite models start at $150, while the 32GB aluminum-backed versions cost $190.
Kindle Paperwhite 7th Gen
The refreshed Paperwhite retains its 7-inch e-ink display, but Amazon says the panel now delivers a better contrast ratio for improved outdoor reading.
The device is also thinner and lighter and offers up to 12 weeks of battery life.
The standard model comes with 16GB storage in Graphite for $200.
The Paperwhite Signature Edition adds an aluminum back, an auto-adjusting front-light sensor and 32GB storage. It comes in Graphite and Seaglass Green for $250.
Kindle Colorsoft 2nd Gen
The second-generation Kindle Colorsoft is also thinner and lighter than its predecessor.
It is available in Graphite and Fig, while the Signature Edition adds an aluminum rear panel.
The standard Kindle Colorsoft costs $290, while the Signature Edition is priced at $320.
New Kindle Accessories
Amazon also introduced three new accessories.
The Kindle Click Bluetooth page-turn remote costs $35.
A Page-Turn Cover with built-in page-turn buttons is priced at $80, while a new charging dock costs $60.
