Cyber Monday is starting to wind down, but there's still time to save on all manner of tech devices. We've spotted the Amazon Kindle Colorsoft (16GB) for just $170 for a limited time. That saves you $80 over its usual price of $250.

CNET's David Carnoy says says, "I gave high marks to the Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition in my review and preferred it to the latest Kindle Paperwhite, which was released at around the same time as the Colorsoft."

This Kindle Colorsoft is 7 inches tall and displays your ebooks in their full, colorful splendor. It has a gentle paper-like color that lets you comfortably read for hours without disturbing anyone if you're in confined spaces, such as an airplane or bus.

It's waterproof and its battery lasts up to eight weeks on a single charge. Additionally, you can read any books available for purchase at the Kindle store or add a Kindle Unlimited subscription for endless reading options. Enjoy reading at night? You can use the paper color feature to darken your pages similarly to how you'd use Dark Mode on other devices.

On top of the current discount of $80, you can save an extra 20% off through Amazon's trade-in program.
