The battery life is not that bad. It's not as good as the Paperwhite but seriously you have to charge your phone nightly or every two days. I read a lot and can go about a week and a half on the battery. Many people just want to complain about nothing. You will enjoy the page turn buttons. One of the best things about the Oasis. I hope they update it with USB-C and if they do I will get the newest version as all my devices will now be able to share one cable. Enjoy.
I’ve had an oasis for 3.5 years and I’ve never had a problem. I’ve dropped it multiple times and I’ve never scratched or dented it. I honestly don’t find the battery bad at all and I’ve used it A LOT lol. It charges fairly fast too. Hope you love it!
I hope so too because at this point the paperwhites more advanced and up to date which has never happened that I can recall. Hopefully an updates near 🤞
@@annabanabanana The Kindle Oasis is Still far Superior to the Paperwhite. The Screen on the Oasis is much better as is the hardware. You have no idea what is inside of them. The technology in the Oasis is Superior to the Paperwhite, that is why the Oasis costs more it uses higher end electronics.
I have an oasis and just bought a paperwhite. Surprisingly enough the oasis was making my carpal tunnel act up! So for prime day I got the paperwhite so my hand didn’t have to be in one position very long ! It’s helped so far !
I have the onyx boox leaf 2, which lets me read from kindle, kobo, scribd, etc, which I love! It has the same structure as the oasis with the 2 buttons. I’m pretty new to reading ebooks, just this year, but I love it
I am going to be getting the Kindle Oasis 7 inch in champagne gold and I am so excited to get my first e reader and I am going to be getting a Rose gold Case for my kindle oasis 7inch
I have the kindle paper white and I love it! I've never really been interested in the Oasis. I'm not sure any of the features appeal to me, plus I just like the shape of the paper white better. But it is pretty cool that the screen can flip when you change directions!
I had the Oasis but then they updated the paperwhite with the warm light setting. I actually ended up hating the hold of the oasis after a while but the paperwhite is my jam. Was so happy that they added the features of the oasis that I loved to the updated paperwhite
I've wondered about the Oasis, but the price point discouraged me. I just started using Kindle like 5 or so years ago and I went with a Kindle Fire for my first one. I love it, but feel the battery doesn't last long and with the internet and games, it can distract me from reading. I got my Paperwhite for Mother's Day this year, and I love it. It's so convenient and easy to use. I take it everywhere with me. Glad you love your new Kindle. 💜
I bought the kindle paperwhite signature edition. I have an oasis 2017. I love the oasis, but it doesn’t get much updates so decided to go for a PW. I’m keeping the oasis for my bedroom reading, the PW for daytime/evening reading.
I have a kindle oasis and a kindle paperwhite signature edition and i love both of them!! My oasis actually has great battery life so i dont know if i just got a good one or other people just got bad ones. Im so excited for your new oasis!!
I recently bought a kindle paperwhite for prime day and I’m obsessed. I have a Kobo Libra 2 which also has buttons and it’s not the greatest which the battery life but I love the buttons so much so I’m just ignoring it lol. Enjoy your Oasis.
I love how I'm not in the market for a new kindle anytime soon, but I still watched this whole video. Can't believe how thin the Oasis is 😮. I always wonder how comfortable it is to hold whenever I see it since it has that indent in the back.
I have the 2020 oasis and have no issues with my battery life. I read a book or two each day, battery life hasn’t been an issue. I’m talking 8-10 hours of reading. I don’t charge very often at all. When I do I plug it in and it’s fully charged in less than an hour.
@@Nikkilodean19Not True!!! The Amazon Claim is it will last 2 weeks if you read it 1/2 an hour a day. So that is only 14 hours of Battery Life. His Oasis easily gets 24 hours of Battery Life from what he said. The Kindle Paperwhite claim is with the Light set to 4 out of a possible 24. So the light is on so low it is useless. I use my light at full brightness on my Oasis and the Battery Life is around 8 hours. People Love to Complain but they usually have No Clue what they are talking about. There is really No difference in Battery Life between the Kindle Oasis and the Kindle Paperwhite. If you don't need to use the light, turn off Bluetooth and WiFi they will both work for continuous reading for more than 24 hours. Why do people complain about a device's Battery Life when it will last them all day... How hard is it to plug it in when you are Not using it???
I have a basic one from around 8 years ago and a paperwhite I got earlier this year. Im in Australia and with both of them dont get ads and also you can touch anywhere on the screen to turn the page rather then swiping. Its weird that in different countries they are slightly different
I got my Kindle Paperwhite 11th gen? around 2-3 months ago and been loving it so much. I read on it all the time and it super easy to carry around and fit practically all my bags. The only downside it if I like the book to much, I also went out and bought the physical book. Haha. So yeah. Like recently I just read the whole ACOTAR series. I know, I'm late to the party. But after I read all of it, I went out and bought the paperback and reread them. I even annotated them. Now I have to start saving so I can buy the hardbacks and the custom dust jackets. Arghhh. Nway nice video. Sorry I'm over 2 months late 😅😅😅
I got a Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition last month and love it. I charged it to a hundred percent when i first got it and the battery life is still good on it. I haven't had to charge it yet.
I just got the paperwhite for Mother's Day. I like it so far! I just don't like that I can't read Hoopla on it. I tend to get things through hoopla a lot faster than Libby so I end up still reading those on my iPad.
I love mine. Battery lasts long for me but i don't keep mine super bright. And i love the warm light option it has for less eye strain. My previous one didn't have that. And it doesn't lag like my previous one as well.**forgot to mention mine is 13g idk if that makes a difference when it comes to battery etc.
I upgraded to an Oasis when I was looking for a Kindle that has warm light (at the time, it was only the Oasis). I find battery life to be fine: I found if you just use default auto brightness it does use more back light (so having a high brightness and warm light setting is going to drain your battery). When you're setting up the Kindle, the battery is also draining more quickly when it's syncing your books. What I really like is the balance of the Oasis. It's less fatiguing to hold it in one hand vs my old Paperwhite. I can see why e-reader reviewers aren't recommending Oasis in 2023: it's still expensive when the current Papperwhite has newer features (including a version that has a charge cradle). Amazon should have already refreshed the Oasis: it's one of the few devices I still have that require a micro USB instead of USB-C. And also with the Oasis, it seems I have to do more fiddling to get the micro USB inserted.
Shorter battery life not an issue for me. I charge my phone and Samsung tablet every day or 2 anyway. I'm also not a big reader but trying to read books on a heavy 10 inch tablet or my phone just isn't working for me.
Hi Jessica I have Kindle Fire 7 and I have Kindle Fire HD 10 Tablet. I only use my Kindle Fire HD 10 Tablet. I love reading my thick books on my Kindle. It is so much easier to read them on my Kindle. Take Care & Happy Reading ❤️🤗🔰📖📒📚❤️
I ordered both the paperwhite and the oasis during prime day to try them out, and now I'm stuck with the agonizing decision of which one I'm going to return...though I'm tempted to keep both. 🤫
Thanks for the video! I have an oasis and always wanted to see a comparison between that and the paperwhite. I never thought about adding a popsocket... 🤔 FYI, I was able to turn off the ads in device setting by having the kindle show my current read. (I do have an older oasis but it may still work for you!)
I’m the total opposite, I have the current PW and looking at the Oasis due to the page turn buttons; but I’m waiting for the upgrade which will HOPEFULLY be this year.
That is absolutely a Ridiculous statement. The changing cable for the Kindle Oasis has been around for 10+ years. It was made the standard charging cable for phones Many years ago. Since USB C came out everyone has been obsessed with wanting everything to have a USB C charging port. I have a lot of speakers and electronics that use the older cable and guess what they All charge plenty fast. Why is it a problem to have a charging spot for your Kindle Oasis? It is a bad idea to use only one cable to charge all your devices. Charging cables don't last forever. They will stop working faster if they are used for numerous different devices. People really Love to have something to complain about.
@JesusSavesSinners Well considering the new standard is a reversible port (there is no right way up or down), supports modern data transfer speeds, and is now on every single new device being made...I'd venture to say micro-usb has been on its way out for the past 10+ years.
@@Ryno_D1no Not every device currently being made is using USB C. I recently bought New Bluetooth speakers and they are still using the older cable. You are Ignorant about USB C cables. They are All Not made the same. For Data transfer you have to buy a different USB C cable. The cables that come with Devices that charge with USB C are only charging cables. The fast charging USB C cables are rated 33% faster charging up to around 57% from what I have seen. Phones that have fast charging will come with a cheap cable that doesn't work that good. I know I have phones that I had to buy new cables for. These cables are Not data transfer cables. The standard USB C cable that comes with electronic devices is only good for charging and doesn't charge faster than the older cable that the Kindle Oasis uses. You just Love to complain. My Kindle Oasis goes from 0 charge to fully charged in 1 hour. It is really easy to have a spot for charging your Kindle Oasis and another spot for your phone and another spot so on and so on for your other devices. People like you Love to complain...
I just have a middle age paper white. It’s not the oldest or the newest, but honestly I don’t use it that often. I’ve kinda migrated to audiobooks for the most part. That does look very nice though!
People act like the battery life is so major, I see it as a chance to take a break and do something else. You can also get one of those battery things people use, if it’s really that major. The form factor of the Oasis is so much better to me, the PW is a winner also. Just read the one you like and be happy.
It isn't the same thing!!! An iPad uses completely different technology than a Kindle e-ink reader. Why do iPad users think an iPad is Better than a Kindle... It is a Snobbish False Feeling of Superiority. There is No better device for reading than a Kindle e-ink reader.
I'd get a flip cover for all of my kindles, if I were you. It'll make the Oasis a tad heavier, but I feel it's a lot more comfy to hold that way--as opposed to being naked. Especially because the metallic body could get really cold and distracting most of the time--in a AC room, particularly. I love the Oasis more than Paperwhite--except for the battery, yes.
Tip if you’re reading outdoors. You can save a ton of battery life by turning brightness all the way down to zero. Unnecessary if there’s any sunshine.
I have both the paperwhite and the oasis. I love both but the battery life of the oasis is definitely not as great as the paperwhite, so like you, I use the paperwhite for travel. You can also set a timer for the warmth mode on the oasis.
What do you feel is the advantage of having a kindle product vs reading on an iPad using the kindle app? Love to read e books but need to weigh benefits of changing from iPad vs price of an oasis or paper white. Thanks for helping me decide!
Why is that a problem??? I don't understand that complaint. It works perfectly. Mine charges plenty fast. The obsession with having everything charge with USB C only is irrational and not necessary.
@@Nikkilodean19 For the price, battery longevity, mobility and size, the paperwhite outshines the Oasis. The paperwhite is more bang for your buck since it’s pretty much everything you need.
my kindle oasis lasts about a full day of reading, like 10-12 hours? it’s so annoying but it’s not like i’m not near chargers. i wouldn’t bring it camping or anything like that. i don’t like that the top button scrolls forward. you can switch it, but the top button unfortunately makes sense because it’s the one that easier to reach. i like being able to go forward while holding it in my left hand and that makes pretty much any of the cons a non-issue 😂

highly recommend keeping the kindle on airplane mode when reading! saves the battery a ton.. havent charged mine in over a month 🤍
