Pros & Cons
Pros
The size is perfect, the battery life is ridiculously long. The battery lasts for a much longer time than my gen 2. It's not that much of a big deal to keep the charging cover in a pocket and just do a quick mobile recharge when the battery winds down... Read More
The library of books available is endless. The fact that it flips around for either right-handed or left-handed reading is great.
It's light and the screen is good. The backlight is not too bright to hurt your eyes. In the bathtub, i like to read with the cover off because the reader itself is light as a feather. And sometimes, reading at the pool, i keep the cover and don’t hav... Read More
I was compelled to grab this gen 1 oasis because it was priced at 149. Portability of this one is amazing compared to even the latest models. I like this oasis, which is refurbished.
The sleek design makes it easy to carry with you. Everything is excellent. Best kindle ever.
Cons
Switching hands was a bit more uncomfortable than the paperwhite. The oasis disappoints in both of these regards. This is my first impression review and i may be changing this later on, if something were to substantially change between now and then. T... Read More
Kindle oasis loses 50% of the battery over 24 hour and it is not in use.
Oasis 8th generation is my favorite because it is so light-weight. I wish i could love it, but its battery is lousy. My third complaint is that i can’t buy a cute cover for the oasis.
Amazon gave me a 40 dollar refund. By some random coincidence the warranty only lasts a year on it as well.
Reviewer says he can't even turn it off to reboot. Technician agrees there's a problem but wants me to do what i already have done repeatedly (reboot) but now doesn't sync. Have to plug it in and reset/start it all over again.
Highlights
Quality
In the bathtub, i like to read with the cover off because the reader itself is light as a feather.
The battery has trouble lasting through more than a single book with the light off in airplane mode.
I am soooooo happy that i found this as a renewed product!
Competitiveness
It allows both a seemless connection and easy removal that avoids the awkward pushing and pulling and opening and closing.
I purchased this oasis in 2016/ have hundreds of book on it.
