I thought that maybe it would be OK for a book with a lot of pastel colors. I didn't have any books like that, but got one to support an author being attacked for writing a children's book telling the story of her grandparents' love story in a detention camp and to see how pastel illustrations looked. (They were dark and muddy. Is this what the amazon Colorsoft vivid mode addresses?)
The colors are more colorful. But when compared to a Kobo Libra Colour, there is more detail on the Kobo the the Kindle. The Kindle loses detail for the graphics. Look here and you'll see the muddiness of the Kindle compared to the Kobo. The link is set to show the comparison when you watch the video.

Here is a still from the video showing this.
