  • Beautifully sharp, Solid front-lighting, Excellent design, Long battery life, Water resistant, Option for 3G with worldwide free data
  • Expensive, Because it's a touchscreen, water makes it go a little crazy
  • Occasional touch issue and price aside, Amazon's 7 inch 2017 Kindle Oasis is a great little eReader, and one that is definitely worth checking out, even if that dollar figure can stretch a little high above all.Built for people who love to read, Amazon's...

  • Abstract:  I'm not terribly fussy about how I read. I used an old Kindle Keyboard until a stray pen in my backpack broke its display, and I've long happily used a Paperwhite without so much as considering the fancier Kindles Amazon has released since I got it back i...

  • Abstract:  When Amazon released the Kindle Oasis back in the spring of 2016, we said it was the best e-reader ever made. But that doesn't mean it was perfect, and in the year and half since it came out, it's become clear there was room for improvement.With a starti...

  • The Kindle Oasis (2017) represents a long-awaited upgrade to Amazon's ereader product line. Waterproofing and Audible content support lift it above the competition.At the same time, Amazon keeps the experience familiar and comfortable. That's partly becau...

  • Large, high resolution E-Ink screen, Waterproof, Looks gorgeous
  • No microSD expansion, Pricey compared with regular Paperwhite
  • There's plenty to like about the new Kindle Oasis, with its abundance of new features. It's waterproof, offers audiobook/ebook synchronisation and has a larger screen. And the best part? Amazon has also reduced the price.At £229, the company's high-end e-...

  Published: 2017-12-21, Author: Dan , review by: T3.com

  • Lovely and lightweight, Still so thin thin, Charging case a nice touch, Waterproof
  • Expensive, 3G version is even more, Not for everybody
  • There's a lot to love about the Kindle Oasis, even if many of the core features are available on the significantly cheaper Kindle Paperwhite. But that's missing the point – and if you've got this far we'd bet that won't bother you. The new larger screen i...

  • long battery life, light, easy to hold, excellent screen, even autoadjusting frontlight, great pageturn buttons, luxurious feel, faster, Audible integration
  • expensive, cover not included, no support for thirdparty audiobooks, no headphones socket
  • The 2017 Amazon Kindle Oasis is the Rolls-Royce of e-readers – a premium device that does little more than the excellent Paperwhite, while costing more than twice the price. But that's ok. It isn't the Kindle you should buy, but it's the one you'll want t...
