Amazon Kindle Oasis review: First class reader, first class price

The Amazon Kindle has been fairly predictable over the past few years, walking a path from button-laden ebook reader at its 2007 launch , all the way through to the ultra-refined and ultra-simple Paperwhite and Voyage generation. The Kindle exists for one reason and that's to read books.
Pros:
  • Light weight design
  • fast page turns
  • great battery cover
  • lovely even lighting
  • premium feel
Cons:
  • Price
  • no adaptive front light

Unhappy

The non-glare screen, size and weight were wonderful. However, the display is in shades of grey (no colour) which was disappointing. The browser is terrible but, then, why would it be anything else when it's in shades of grey.

Kindle Oasis

The Kindle Oasis is the most luxurious, high-end e-reader ever made by Amazon. It's ridiculously thin, weighs very little and is a pleasure to use. In addition, it's supplied with a clever leather case into which the device slots, which not only provides protection for your e-reader, but also an...
Pros:
  • Included leather case is great
  • Fantastic display
  • Gorgeous looks
Cons:
  • That price..
  • No adaptive front light

Amazon Kindle Oasis

Reading on the Oasis is sublime. Simply tap the right or left side of the screen to turn pages, as you would on any other touch-screen Kindle. You can also use the physical Page Turn buttons on the side, which I found to be perfectly situated beneath my thumb.
Pros:
  • Sharp, bright screen
  • Long battery life extended by leather charging cover
  • Ergonomic design
  • Built-in accelerometer
  • Vast ebook store
Cons:
  • Expensive
  • Not waterproof
  • Cover doesn't protect entire reader

Amazon Kindle Oasis review

Amazon's Kindle range hasn't seen an innovation like the Oasis since 2014, when the Kindle Voyage appeared. Ever since the original Amazon Kindle hit the virtual shelves back in November 2007 the company has managed to refine the design with each passing generation, nipping here and tucking there to...

Amazon's New Kindle Oasis: The Gizmodo Hands On

Just after 11 am on Saturday morning, I became the proud parent of my very first Tamagotchi, freshly hatched from its virtual egg. By yesterday afternoon it was dead; its passing a poignant reminder that the gadgets we adored as kids aren't always as awesome 20 years later when we're grownups.

I love the thing!

A great pick up, although I'm starting to notice slight ink burn as I'm moving from one page to the next. I've had the device for about three weeks now and I've charged it once. Honestly I could've went with the mid-tiered kindle but either way I'm happy with this purchase.

A Significant Step Up In Quality!!

I've had my Kindle Oasis for three months now, it being my fourth version. Having used it almost daily, I think I'm well placed to provide a balanced review of this product. I find it difficult to make any negative comment about the Oasis. It's very slightly larger than my Kindle Voyage.

Lovely new kindle

I took the kindle out the box, set it up to charge and added my email and all my books were there ready for me to download when I was ready. If you have had a kindle prior to this you will be aware there are no instructions in the box but to be honest most of the settings are self explanatory -...
