- Color your pages – Highlight your favorite scenes in yellow, orange, blue, and pink.
- Marathon reading – A single charge via USB-C lasts up to 8 weeks.

For anyone looking, there is also a bundle below with the clear and fabric case for only 1.99 more at 171.98. The case is normally 36.99 so it seems worthwhile even as a backup case
Unfortunately, while a kindle user since ~2010, I don't think 16gb or even 32gb is even adequate for my needs. If I'm going with color, I'd prefer something that can natively read cbr/cbz and not have to convert and swap things off and on. I have some cbr/cbz that are 100mb+ per volume, with many volumes in the series. Maybe I could deal with a jailbroken kindle and loading cbzs from a nas, a google drive or swapping conversions in and out on my amazon account or something, but I don't want to count on that.
The only color ereader that really intrigues me is the Boox Go Color 7 because it has access to the play store and a microsd slot, so I'd have a ton of flexibility in both local cbz readers and manga repo apps. Supports a pen too (though kinda rudimentary, not for drawing). Costs twice as much though...

Plus, the Colorsoft and less pricey Paperwhite are both waterproof, so you may want to consider if you have a need for that. I love my paperwhite, but being waterproof wasn't a deciding factor for me. It might be for some. I think they're all pretty cool, from the cheapest to priciest, it's just down to what you need and how the kids will use them. "Kids editions" of ereaders have 2-year warranties. If I remember correctly, you can return anytime in two years for a replacement. If your kids tend to be rough on their belongings, that's another consideration.
And the discount at 20% off is $34. That's very worth the trade-in if, like me, you have loads of all kinds of old Amazon devices you don't need anymore in a drawer. Plus getting extra money for the device you trade as well. Though it would be worth just doing 15% if you really wanted to keep your old device and had nothing else to trade.

some users have reported receiving specific, limited-time "upgrade offers" directly tied to very old Kindle models where the terms and conditions explicitly stated that recycling or sending in the old device was not required. These are generally exceptions to the standard terms and are not the default for most trade-ins.
Basically, if you have such an offer, it will be clear that you have it, and it sounds like it's not something most of us will have.
