Amazon has finally given a release date for its new Kindle Scribe Colorsoft and Kindle Scribe: They’ll be available to purchase starting on December 10th, Amazon spokesperson Rachel Erickson tells The Verge. They’ll cost the same as what Amazon announced back in September: $629.99 for the Colorsoft and $499.99 for the Scribe, which includes a frontlight. The company won’t be taking preorders.Â
Amazon’s updated Scribes have larger 11-inch screens, weigh 400 grams, and are 5.4mm thin (which is thinner than an iPhone Air). The screens use a “new texture-molded glass to improve the friction when the pen glides across the screen,†according to Amazon, and the versions with frontlighting have a new system that uses miniaturized LEDs. The updated Scribes also come with a new pen with stronger magnets for snapping to the side of the device.
However, the more affordable $429.99 Scribe without a frontlight won’t be available on December 10th; that’s still set to launch sometime in 2026.
