Amazon’s Kindle Colorsoft Gets a Dark Mode (2026)
亚马逊 Kindle Colorsoft 迎来深色模式(2026)
I’m a nighttime reader. I usually read in the dark with my e-reader of choice in its native dark mode (if you’re unfamiliar, it’s the mode that turns the background black and all text and lines white, making it much dimmer but still easy to read). That allows my husband and even my almost-4-year-old to snooze next to me while I read, with no beacon of light blasting from my device.
我是一个习惯在夜间阅读的人。我通常会在黑暗中使用电子阅读器的原生深色模式(如果你不熟悉的话,这种模式会将背景变为黑色,文字和线条变为白色,使屏幕亮度大幅降低,但依然清晰易读)。这让我的丈夫,甚至我快 4 岁的孩子都能在我阅读时安稳入睡,而不会被我设备发出的刺眼光芒所打扰。
It’s no surprise that, as such a nighttime reader, the lack of dark mode on the Kindle Colorsoft or Kindle Scribe Colorsoft was a big complaint for me. Yes, you can turn the page color black on books (but not on imported documents, including AZW3, which is designed specifically for reading on Amazon’s devices), but the menu bars and homepages would blast me in the eyes in a dark room if I wanted to switch what book I was reading or use a menu feature. It was one of the many features we found lacking in the Kindle Colorsoft, but it’s the one that keeps me from using it over another Kindle. I’d rather grab my Kindle Paperwhite and know I won’t be blinded at 11:45 pm.
作为一名夜间阅读者,Kindle Colorsoft 或 Kindle Scribe Colorsoft 缺乏深色模式对我来说是一个巨大的槽点,这并不令人意外。虽然你可以将书籍的页面颜色设置为黑色(但无法应用于导入的文档,包括专为亚马逊设备设计的 AZW3 格式),但如果我想切换书籍或使用菜单功能,菜单栏和主页在黑暗房间里依然会刺痛我的双眼。这是我们发现 Kindle Colorsoft 缺失的众多功能之一,也是让我不愿用它替代其他 Kindle 的主要原因。我宁愿拿起我的 Kindle Paperwhite,因为我知道在晚上 11:45 时它不会让我感到刺眼。
That all changes today. Amazon announced that dark mode is rolling out to Colorsoft Kindle devices today and continuing over the coming weeks. It’ll include customization options, in case you don’t want everything on your Colorsoft Kindle to go dark when you use this mode. If dark mode has kept you from getting a Colorsoft, you can take that off your list of cons.
这一切从今天开始改变。亚马逊宣布,深色模式将从今天起向 Colorsoft Kindle 设备推送,并将在未来几周内持续覆盖。该功能还包含自定义选项,以防你在使用深色模式时不想让 Colorsoft Kindle 上的所有内容都变暗。如果深色模式是你此前未购买 Colorsoft 的原因,现在你可以将其从缺点清单中划掉了。
If you’re already a Kindle Colorsoft owner, you can start checking your device today for updates, but they might not appear right away. If you don’t want to wait, you can download the update here from Amazon, but you’ll need to install it on a desktop computer and follow these instructions to manually update your Kindle.
如果你已经是 Kindle Colorsoft 的用户,从今天起就可以检查设备更新了,但更新推送可能不会立即显示。如果你不想等待,可以从亚马逊官网下载更新包,但你需要将其安装在台式电脑上,并按照说明手动更新你的 Kindle。
The Colorsoft dark mode will also give you options. You can choose to darken some screens while leaving others on the regular, brighter screen. This seems primarily designed for the Kindle Scribe Colorsoft, the digital notebook version of the colorful Kindle line, so you could choose to leave your digital notebooks in light mode while having your home screen and books in dark mode. But it’ll work on all Colorsoft devices (and so far, only Colorsoft devices, but we’ll see if that changes over time). Amazon says you can access this by clicking on dark mode in the Quick Actions menu, and you’ll be able to customize what gets dark mode from there.
Colorsoft 的深色模式还提供了更多选择。你可以选择让某些屏幕变暗,而让其他屏幕保持常规的明亮状态。这似乎主要是为 Kindle Scribe Colorsoft(彩色 Kindle 系列中的数字笔记本版本)设计的,这样你可以选择让数字笔记本保持浅色模式,同时将主屏幕和书籍设置为深色模式。该功能适用于所有 Colorsoft 设备(目前仅限 Colorsoft 设备,未来是否会扩展尚不可知)。亚马逊表示,你可以通过点击“快速操作”菜单中的“深色模式”来访问此功能,并在此处自定义哪些界面应用深色模式。
Amazon also confirmed that any color you’ve used on the Colorsoft Kindle Scribe notebooks or colorful highlights you’ve used to annotate your ebook on any Colorsoft device will remain the same color when the device switches to dark mode.
亚马逊还确认,无论是在 Colorsoft Kindle Scribe 笔记本中使用的任何颜色,还是在任何 Colorsoft 设备上为电子书添加的彩色高亮标注,在设备切换到深色模式后,颜色都将保持不变。
