GoKawiilLeaked photos show new colors, redesign for Amazon's next basic Kindle

GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Moving the power button could reduce accidental sleep activation, a common complaint with the current design, while new colors may help refresh interest in Amazon's cheapest e-reader line. WinFuture speculates that images showing a recessed E Ink panel could mean multiple display variants are planned, though details on storage, battery, and pricing remain unknown ahead of an expected pre-holiday launch.
