Anyone who’s made the move to digital books know how convenient it is. No waiting until the book store opens to get that next novel in a series, no stacks of books in a carry on, and no volumes clogging up your shelves.

There are several e-readers on the market and virtually any tablet can become a reader too. Amazon Kindle is one of the originals, and the Kindle Oasis, the most expensive E Ink e-reader from Amazon, has been refreshed for 2019. Amazon released the original Kindle Oasis e-reader way back in 2017 which was slick, thin and lightweight and featured a high quality E-Ink screen than the competition. But it’s definitely costly at about $249USD or $359CAD.
Amazon Kindle Oasis: Features

The Kindle Oasis is a simple and elegant e-reader but the design comes with a few gripes, of course. For one, this Kindle feels a bit clunkier than the previous Kindles. The aluminum back features wedge-shaped grip design, which, according to Amazon, makes it easier to hold the device. Some love it; some don’t like it—it’s personal preference. I don’t mind it, I guess. The device, however, feels much lighter and thinner than a real book.

On the front, you got two physical buttons for turning pages. Hitting the top button will turn pages forward, while the bottom one will turns pages backward. The buttons are responsive and work pretty well, but they seem somewhat superfluous. You can turn pages with a swipe already. Again, will some folks prefer the buttons to the repetitive swiping motion? Maybe

When it comes to the display, Amazon has made some improvements.

The Oasis has a 7-inch monochrome display with 300 ppi, which is sharp and incredibly responsive compared to other e-ink displays. Reading on the Oasis is a delight as the texts look crisper and more precise—thanks to the e-reader’s e-ink technology, which matured tremendously over the last decade. Furthermore, the reading experience gets even better thanks to the device’s adjustable back light feature.

The device actually has 25 LED lights behind the screen that allow users to adjust the color tone from cool to warm color tones manually or on a timed schedule automatically to match daylight and night conditions. Why? There are debates about whether the color tones of smartphones and e-book readers affect sleep. Various studies show that blue light emitted from screens can make it harder to sleep, so being able to employ warmer light as you’re reading to fall asleep should help your circadian rhythms in theory.

Let’s talk about software now. Amazon’s Kindle software still remains some of the best in the industry. There are a ton of customization options, including changing the formatting, fonts, font size, boldness levels, page spacing, margins, themes, and many more. Additionally, you can create your own themes and font size with a pinch-to-zoom gesture.

Other benefits of the Oasis; it suits both lefties and righties. The screen of the device reorients the reading position if you rotate it 180 degrees when you grip it with your left hand as opposed to the right.

Battery life

The battery of the Oasis is one of its significant upsides. Amazon says the Oasis will last up to 6 weeks of 30 minutes of reading a day with the brightness level set to 13. In real-life scenarios, you can read two 300-page books at an average reading pace with medium brightness levels on the Kindle Oasis on a single charge. That’s remarkable, and weeks longer than most tablets.

What does Oasis have that Kindle and Paperwhite don’t?

The Kindle Oasis, like the paperwhite, is waterproof, while original Kindle is not. Oasis is the only e-reader from Amazon with Adjustable warm light and auto-adjusting light sensors to adjust tones to the time of day. It’s also the only one with buttons to turn pages and the only one that will automatically reorient itself if you turn it upside down, but the other devices don’t use buttons so there’s no need to re-orient.

Reading experience

If you’re not familiar with e-readers, they can take some getting used to. I was a die-hard paper book reader until I finished book one of the Mockingjay series and desperately needed book two at 1am.

The convenience of e-books can’t be understated, but yes, you’ll face an adjustment period.
What can you expect in an e-book reading experience? You can keep your place at all times, even while flipping around the book. The text is very easy to read; it’s sharp and dark and pops off the page. You can make and export notes if you like to read books for work or school and integrated Wi-Fi means you can look words up or do quick searches too.
