Proper after Amazon launched the Kindle Colorsoft, folks began reporting a problem with a bizarre yellow band on the backside of the display screen attributable to the frontlight. Amazon acknowledged the issue and promised to repair it, however have they actually achieved something about it?
Amazon nonetheless has the “We Need You To Know” disclaimer on the product web page for the Kindle Colorsoft that claims a “small” variety of clients have reported a yellow band alongside the underside of the show, and that Amazon has “made the suitable changes to make sure that new gadgets is not going to expertise this difficulty shifting ahead”.
However is Amazon actually doing something in regards to the frontlight difficulty? I nonetheless see folks getting new Colorsofts with the very same drawback as initially reported, and the identical could be mentioned for these which can be getting replacements. If you happen to kind by most up-to-date opinions at Amazon, individuals are nonetheless reporting the identical actual yellow band difficulty.
I’ve seen a couple of footage of the Kindle Colorsoft posted on-line that don’t seem to have a yellow band in any respect, so it does appear doable to get a great one, however it nonetheless seems just like the yellow band difficulty is fairly widespread.
A few of the twelfth gen Kindle Paperwhites undergo from the identical uneven frontlight, however it appears to be much less widespread on the Paperwhite. The frontlight on mine is somewhat on the yellow facet total, however I prefer it that means and a minimum of it’s a fair colour throughout the display screen, not like the Colorsoft that I despatched again.
Does anybody on the market have any constructive information to report on this difficulty? Anybody get a Colorosoft lately with out a yellow band? Did you get a alternative with out the difficulty?
In some unspecified time in the future I plan on shopping for a second Colorsoft to see for myself if Amazon has fastened the issue or not, however I’ll most likely wait till it goes on sale for the primary time.
