The Kindle Oasis is a high-quality e-reader. It has a large display, ample memory and a pleasant light.
This is what the Kindle Oasis is designed for
With the Kindle Oasis, you get the luxury e-reader from Amazon. It’s named because the eBook reader has a specific purpose. To help you immerse yourself in text, an oasis of calm so to speak. You can enjoy a book with the e-reader without being distracted by notifications.
- The 7-inch screen puts crisp text at your fingertips. The fluid user interface is designed to create an oasis where you can focus entirely on the book. The thin design makes the device comfortable to use.
- E-book readers are more comfortable for your eyes than LCD or OLED displays. With the Oasis, the light is on the front and shines across the screen. This makes for a much more relaxing reading experience than a backlit tablet.
- You get a soft and even light from the 25 built-in LEDs. In addition, you have the option of switching from white lighting to a warm amber shade. The adjustment of the light works conveniently via a slider.
E-Reader comparison
The Oasis comes in two versions. Either with 8 or 32 gigabytes. The memory of the standard version is completely sufficient for e-books. Only audio books need more space. Then there is a 32 gigabyte version, which is more suitable for audio book lovers.
- The Oasis is a solidly built, sophisticated e-reader. However, you should consider whether you need the extra features. Also, the bar with the page-turning buttons makes the device less compact. The Kindle Paperwhite is a great entry-level device if the Oasis is too much for you.
- With the Paperwhite, you get a lower screen resolution of 167 ppi. The largest of the screen is 6.8 inches. It is a compact device with a good price-performance ratio.
- If, however, you prefer an e-reader in the upper price category and want a large display, it is worth taking a look at the Epos 3 from Tolino. This offers you an 8-inch display. It also looks similar to the Kindle Oasis.
- The Epic 3 has an open system and supports all common e-book formats. The Smart Light is also adjustable in brightness and colour temperature. Furthermore, the device has an E Ink Carta display with 300 ppi. You get a storage capacity of 32 gigabytes.
