I just received My kindle oasis today 10/5 as a 28 month clean and sober gift from family. Loving it so far but I stuck on how to navigate this thing. This is a great video. So helpful and I was hit by a car about a week ago and got a shattered tibial plateau and kneecap. So I'm going to be reading for months. Hope all is well darling.
Enjoyed your video. I also have an Oasis 3 and it is an excellent device. I do think it is great that the new Paperwhite has brought several of the great Oasis features down to a more affordable price. The Paperwhite is a my primary general e-reader recommendation. However the Oasis is still a more premium device. I use mine without the case and I really like how comfortable it is to read with one hand due to the weight being more concentrated at the hand. And then there is the excellent page buttons which I find preferable to touching the screen. Also the excellent build with aluminum and glass add to the pleasure of using the Oasis. I am hoping we see an Oasis 4 in a few months with USB C, wireless charging, and a few other goodies that will give us an excuse to get it.
Ruby, I’m glad you mentioned about holding the Kindle Oasis and that it was easier than holding a book where you get hand cramps. This is one of the reasons I am looking at a Kindle, as my hands are small and struggle in bed to hold the book without it hurting my hands! I’m definitely going to save up for the Kindle Oasis. Thank you so much for your excellent, in depth review from a user point of view rather than a technical one. 😊
I upgraded to the Oasis this week (it's coming today!) mainly because I donate plasma twice a week, and needed something I could read with one hand! I can't wait to get it.
I just bought mine today after deciding that my iPad was too heavy to read with and was giving me a headache with the screen. I really went back and forth between this one and the paper white. Before I got to the store I was pretty sure I was leaning towards the paper white due to the price difference. But once I felt the oasis I just knew it was the right one. I like the way it feels and the back of it looks more sleek and doesn’t show as much dirt/smudges. The buttons are definitely a plus too!
Thanks for the video! I just received my oasis and I like it! I would recommend to anyone to visit an Amazon store and look at the oasis and the new paperwhite before purchasing! The build quality of the oasis is far superior to the pw, and hand positioning is more comfortable/ adjustable on the oasis. When I picked up the pw in my hand, it felt cheaply made with the plastic build. I still would not by even buy it, if the oasis were not available. The extra money for the oasis is worth it!
Great video, thank you 😊. I also got an oasis in the amazon prime day sale last year and I love it ❤. Favourite thing is the ergonomic shape and super light weight because my hand also used to cramp up holding heavier physical books and even the older kindle models. I'd definitely reiterate your point about storage, I got the 32GB model so I could store more audio books but found playing them on the kindle drains the battery too fast as you need to connect to headphones/speaker via Bluetooth. I now use my phone for audio books and kindle just for reading so the 8GB model would have been the best option.
You should have gone with the 16gb. It only costs a bit more This is the third review I have watched and no one has discussed whether you can use landscape mode. They all say it switches from left to right only so can you advise? Good review.
When you said excuse the sirens I had to pause the video. Because it sounded like it was on my end too. When I paused there were sirens outside blaring for me too.
I bought the 32gb version, 10gb of audio books, 890 books and tons of manga series, I need the 32gb version and i don't want to add and remove things all the time. If you have 1 manga comic book its at lest 100 to 200 mb so 8gb isn't that much.
Good review, but now the best option is Kindle paperwhite 2021 and signature Edition, almost same screen (6,8 vs 7), Paperwhite now have usb-c, warm Light, fast processor, and infinite better battery.
Hi thanks for the video you know (or maybe not!) In couple of days ago Amazon release new Kindle paperwhite model and that's really great and near to previous oasis model (3th gen) but tomorrow I gonna buy oasis model for just 150$ not used model!! And I'm really excited about that 🤠🤠 Your video send me a lot of hopes to buy Kindle! Thanks again.🤎
Guuuurl, you sold this to me so well that I'm literally riding home on a bus with a new Kindle Oasis 😅
OMG ENJOY!

Watching this while waiting for my Oasis to arrive in a day or two! Can't wait!!!!!!! Your video calms me.
Enjoy your Kindle Oasis! You're going to LOVE it

The 6.8 inch paperwhite is what I have and love it. Hopefully they will refresh the oasis and give it usb c.
Ottimo 👍, oggi mi deve arrivare il Kindle Oasis …mi serve questa recensione. Mentre eri in attesa potevi meditare 🧘♂️

Really love reading on my oasis. I watched your video when you first got an oasis thank you been subbed since then.
Wow, thanks for the support! Enjoy your Oasis
You look like a queen in oasis 😍
I got mine 2000 kindle oasis you sold me on it love it when i got it i can't stop reading on it
Hi! My name is Ruby too and I love my oasis as well! Love your review!
Yes, please share more bookish goodies. 📚 Thank you.
Your hair is stunningly beautiful.
Thank you so much!
You’re seriously the cutest. 😍😍
Agree 100% with this video, but if buying a new kindle I think the new Paperwhite 2021 is a better deal overall.
Honesty I think you can't go wrong with a Kindle in general, but for me the Oasis is still my favorites
@@RubyLocknar Oasis is definitely the best, and worth the money :)
You should have gone with the 16gb. It only costs a bit more
This is the third review I have watched and no one has discussed whether you can use landscape mode. They all say it switches from left to right only so can you advise?
Good review.
I really didn't need the 16gb! The 8gb holds a ton
When you said excuse the sirens I had to pause the video. Because it sounded like it was on my end too. When I paused there were sirens outside blaring for me too.
lol
"Hand cramp" is real! I get it all the time on my paperwhite. Last night was my first reading session with my new Oasis - no hand cramp yet:)
So glad someone else gets it!
I would love to see more booktube content. Thank you for sharing your love for the oasis kindle.
More book/ reading content is definitely on the way!
I wouldn't trade mine for any of the new Kindles. I was hoping they would update it instead they discontinued it. 😢
@@alvinmarcus5780 I will NEVER understand why they discontinued it
I bought the 32gb version, 10gb of audio books, 890 books and tons of manga series, I need the 32gb version and i don't want to add and remove things all the time.
If you have 1 manga comic book its at lest 100 to 200 mb so 8gb isn't that much.
Good review, but now the best option is Kindle paperwhite 2021 and signature Edition, almost same screen (6,8 vs 7), Paperwhite now have usb-c, warm Light, fast processor, and infinite better battery.
Still no buttons on the new Paperwhite though.
@@xavierrethore3778 I dont like buttons, but if you want buttons kobo libra 2 is a cheap and better option.
@@Minwalin I might end up with a Kindle AND a Kobo: best of both worlds.
I have the exact same case, I have some fraying on the edge and it’s slippery to hold. This is my least favorite case of all time
I just ordered today
Enjoy!
Not sure about the kindle..
But your eyes are surely readable
Asking for birthday
👀 bla bla bla
You can always just click out of the video!

Yeah I saw that a new paperwhite came out! I think it's great for those who love to read, but the Oasis is still great for the constant reader
