You can turn pages either by pressing the buttons to the righthand side of the ereader or by tapping the display, It has builtin Bluetooth so you can connect a pair of wireless headphones and listen to Audible spoken books on the device too, It's waterpro
It's very expensive, It only supports its own book format or MOBI, so you won't be able to rent ebooks from your local library to read on it, You can't power down the device, you just simply turn off the screen or restart the restart takes a whopping 1 mi
There's no doubt this is an expensive e-reader! That's in part thanks to the built-in 3G (the wi-fi only version is £60 cheaper) but it really is the best money can buy. Simple to use and waterproof to boot, this new Kindle offers features that others don...

Abstract: I've got a struggle, everyone. I've been using the new Kobo Aura H2O off and on for the last few weeks, switching between reading on it with reading on my overpriced but super damn slick Amazon Kindle Oasis. The two aren't entirely comparable: The Oasis...
The Kindle Oasis is a fantastic device for book lovers who can take advantage of all the updated features. It may not be as affordable as the paperwhite but is still the best e-reader you can buy in India. If you love to read at night before going to bed...
Another excellent e-book reader for those who love to read on the move. The Amazon Kindle Oasis is premium Kindle and comes with a premium price tag – starts from Rs. 21,999.Rating 4.8 out of 5You can buy this Amazon Kindle Oasis from Rs. 21,999, Wi-Fi...
Well built, Long battery life, Crisp display, Smooth performance
No Audible support in India, Expensive, Lacks grip
The second-generation Kindle Oasis is Amazon's flagship device for what an e-reader should be. It has a great build, long battery life, twice the storage when compared to the other Kindles, along with a larger display. The fact that audible isn't active i...
Large 7-inch screen is brilliant, Solid build quality, Waterproof
Might be bulky for some, No Audible support for India, Priced on the higher side,
At a starting price of Rs. 21,999, the second-generation Kindle Oasis is slightly cheaper than the first one that was launched starting at Rs. 23,999. It comes with a better design, offers long battery life without any cover and is waterproof. The water-s...
Abstract: It's been a long time since I've given up books. No it doesn't mean I've given up reading. It's just that I graduated to a Kindle. My Kindle, which also happens to be a gift from a dear one, is an essential gadget that I carry with me almost all the time...
Amazon Kindle Oasis is easily the best iteration of the Kindle out there. The idea to go with a larger display size is quite interesting and you get a lot more text per page as compared to the older Kindles. The Oasis is well-built and the water resistan...
Well, this is clearly the most premium Kindle you can buy. It is also thinnest, lightest, brightest and most advanced Kindle ever. But all that comes at a price and I am not convinced the premium really makes sense when the more affordable Kindles do such...
