5 things I did first on my Kindle to improve my reading experience

Here are five things to try out on your Kindle when you first get it.

The Kindle Colorsoft is perfect for comic books

It has a paper-like 7-inch color display

The Kindle Colorsoft is worth considering, especially if you’re interested in reading comic books, manga, graphic novels, magazines, travel guides, and more. It features a 7-inch E Ink color display that looks and reads like real paper. This technology is much easier on your eyes over time and adapts better to different lighting conditions compared to the LCD screens found on other reading devices like Apple’s iPads.

Both versions of the Kindle Colorsoft are on sale: one with three months of Kindle Unlimited and the other without. Since both are priced the same at $225, I highly recommend getting the Kindle Colorsoft that includes three free months of Kindle Unlimited. When

I first got my Kindle
, one of the first things I did was subscribe to Kindle Unlimited, as it gives you access to over four million ebooks to read. As a first-time user, this is incredibly handy for diving into a wide array of books on your Kindle right from the start.

It’s important to note that the Kindle Colorsoft initially launched with a

yellow banding screen
issue that caused Amazon to temporarily delay deliveries. This issue has since been resolved, and our Pocket-lint review found it to have a “vibrant color E Ink display” that is easy to read. If you’re into comic books and other colorful publications, the Colorsoft is an excellent choice. However, if you prefer novels, then the more

affordable Kindle models
may be better suited for you. This Kindle Colorsoft deal is now available for a limited time on Amazon.
