Amazon has added two new color options for its Kindle Paperwhite. The e-book reader now comes in plum and sage, basically a light purple and light green.

With the addition of plum and sage, the Kindle Paperwhite is now available in four color options. When the e-reader launched in November 2018, the only color available was black. Amazon added a twilight blue last year. 

The 2018 model of the Paperwhite is thinner and lighter than its earlier versions. The e-reader is also fully-waterproof and features a 6-inch touchscreen E Ink display that is readable in direct sunlight, similar to the high-end Kindle Oasis.
