John Lewis, a high-end department store chain in the UK, has briefly listed a new Kindle that isn’t available at anyone else. It’s the upcoming 12th generation Kindle eReader, which Amazon hasn’t announced yet, although its information was already leaked a few times before Lewis prematurely published a listing for it.

In the retailer’s description, Amazon referred to the Kindle as the 12th generation.

Its frontlight is 25 percent brighter at maximum setting than previous versions, and it has a higher contrast ratio, but you still can’t adjust the light cooler or warmer like you could on more expensive Kindles. However, the device allows for faster page turning than previous Kindles and has a new dark mode feature that inverts the colors of the e-ink display, it says The edge.

In addition to the basic 12th generation Kindle, John Lewis also released the listing for its Kids Edition version. It’s the same device, except it comes with a colorful case and includes a free six-month subscription to Amazon Kids+.

Meanwhile, the Kids Edition will cost you a bit more as the retailer has it listed for £115 ($150).
