Thin and light, Long battery life
No colour, Pricey
When it comes to reading, I do most of mind on large dual-screen monitors and as the hours tick by and night falls, my eyes often protest. The display on the Kindle is fundamentally different technology and means your eyes will be happy, even after hours...
The e-ink screen doesn't always feel as responsive as it should and environmental lighting remains a factor even if there are some cool gains in battery life to be found here. If you're looking to spent $400 on a dedicated e-reader, this is definitely the...
With similar performance to other e-readers that cost much less, we can't recommend Amazon's Kindle Oasis to everyone. But for voracious readers with a taste for luxury, this e-reader's light weight, excellent ergonomics, and even backlighting are wor...
So, should you buy one? I've got a few answers to this question. If you demand the very best out of every piece of hardware you own, cost be damned, then yes, you'll be happy with the Kindle Oasis. Despite the shortcomings of its cellular connectiv...
So thin, so light; Cover included in the box; Free cover includes a battery to recharge the reader; Great screen technology left over from the Kindle Voyage; Can be held in either hand, making it an ambidextrous eReader;
Expensive; Ads on the screensaver; No adaptive light feature for the front-lighting;
While the Oasis is very expensive, especially for an eReader, it has something no other eReader can currently lay claim to: that beyond the ubiquity that portable screens have already become, this does feel like a piece of the future.Strangely, you have t...
Innovative new design, Great new backlit screen, Vast selection of ebooks
Shorter battery life, Most expensive Kindle ever, Only leather case options
Amazon's new Kindle is beyond anything you've ever paid for an ereader before, but if you're heavily invested in the world of ebooks it may be worthwhile purchase...

Very thin and light, improved screen, long battery life, comes with a cover with a builtin battery
Expensive
Without a doubt, the Kindle Oasis is the best e-reader Amazon has produced. For anyone who loves reading their books in digital form, it doesn't get better than this...
The Kindle Oasis is the lightest Kindle yet at 4.6 ounces and is 3.4 mm at its thinnest point. A slim leather battery case is included and adheres magnetically to the device, bumping battery life up to a 9 weeks without WiFi on. The integrated light has b
It's pricey, isn't any zippier than the Voyage or Paperwhite, and isn't waterproof
If you don't mind the high price, the Kindle Oasis is the best e-reader you can buy today...

Abstract: I didn't think I could be surprised by a new Kindle, but, well, Amazon got me with the Kindle Oasis. In more than one way. It's weird-looking, and the $449 price tag is shocking.That leak earlier this week was bang on, and Amazon's latest e-reader has an...
Abstract: In almost every way that matters, Kobo and Kindle's latest premium e-reader offerings stand in stark contrast to each other.The Oasis is pricey while the Aura One is budget-friendly. The Oasis is small while the Aura One is big. The Oasis is about premium...
