Kindle Oasis on the left, Voyage on the right (Photo by Anthony Karcz) This is one e-reader where you won’t be straining to read the text. And the brightness provided by the 10 LEDs (the Voyage only has 6) is readily apparent. Powering it up, it’s snappy and responsive. I was surprised by how solid it felt even though it was shorter than my Kindle Voyage (the Oasis sports a square form factor). Right out of the box, I was impressed with the feel of the device. It’s hard to deny that the Kindle Oasis is a premium product. The question then becomes, are the extra features built up around that screen worth the extra cash? After all, you can pick up a Kindle Paperwhite, that has the same screen, but without the paucity of LEDs (4 to the Oasis’s 10) or page-turning buttons for over $100 less (or even less than that if you are quick and cash in on the Prime Day deals). The problem when it comes to comparing different Kindle versions is that the base functionality of the devices is exactly same (at least among the e-ink readers): you can read and purchase books on a crisp screen that lasts for weeks. Beyond the best-in-industry 300 ppi screen that it shares with the Kindle Voyage and Paperwhite, the Oasis features a unique form factor, 10 LEDs, and an included leather charging cover that can power the device for months.
