WinFuture reports suggest that the screen housing may feature more rounded corners and a potentially recessed E Ink panel. While technical specifications regarding storage, battery life, and screen resolution remain unconfirmed, the hardware changes point toward a more substantial update than the modest backlight and page-turn improvements of 2024. Amazon has yet to comment on the timeline for an official release, though the timing aligns with their historical pattern of refreshing e-reader lineups ahead of the peak holiday shopping cycle.
