Amazon's Signature Edition Kindle Colorsoft may be facing discontinuation.
=========================================================================
The Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition, with its 32GB storage, quick charging, and ambient light sensor, is currently available but primarily in Europe and Japan. Amazon is gradually rolling out this 2025 model to more countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada. However, as of August 2025, there is no specific confirmation that the 32GB version is directly available for purchase in Australia or Canada through official Amazon channels.
In these regions, Amazon has released newer 16GB Kindle Colorsoft models at a lower price point along with a Kindle Colorsoft Kids edition. These models lack wireless charging and the auto-adjusting ambient light sensor found in the Signature 32GB model. The 32GB Signature Edition has seen a price drop recently in some markets, indicating it is still sold, but its geographic availability primarily highlights Europe and Japan.
For those in Australia and Canada specifically looking for the 32GB Signature Edition with quick charging and ambient light sensor, you may need to check third-party retailers or Amazon’s international sites with shipping options. Alternatively, the 16GB model with manual adjustable light is officially available at a lower price locally.
In conclusion, the Kindle Colorsoft 32GB Signature Edition is still in production but is officially confirmed for Europe and Japan primarily and not yet broadly for Australia or Canada, where only 16GB non-Signature versions are confirmed sold. The new Kindle Colorsoft devices, featuring new screen technology for a colorful experience, are now available in these regions as well.
It's worth noting that the original Kindle Colorsoft 32GB edition is the only version of the device that still includes quick charging and an ambient light sensor. The article about the Kindle Colorsoft devices was written by Michael Kozlowski, who has been writing about audiobooks, e-books, and e-readers for the past eighteen years. The product listing for the original Kindle Colorsoft 32GB edition remains available on the Kindle Landing page.
However, there are rumours that Amazon may be discontinuing the Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition, as it is no longer listed on the Kindle Comparison Chart. The yellow band issue, which occurred when the front light was on, causing a persistent yellow bar to appear at the bottom of the screen, was a concern for many users last year, and it took Amazon almost five months to resolve. Despite this, the original Kindle Colorsoft 32GB edition is still available for purchase.
Michael Kozlowski resides in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The new Kindle Colorsoft devices have the same body as the Kindle Paperwhite 12th generation. The original Kindle Colorsoft 32GB edition is the only way to buy the 32GB version of the device, and it can only be purchased via the main Kindle Landing page.
- For individuals in Australia and Canada who prefer the 32GB Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition with its quick charging and ambient light sensor, they may need to explore third-party retailers or Amazon's international sites that offer shipping options, as the official 32GB version is not yet available for purchase through local channels.
- Despite rumors of its potential discontinuation, the original Kindle Colorsoft 32GB Signature Edition with unique features like quick charging and an ambient light sensor, remains available for purchase, making it the only way to buy the 32GB version of the device.
