Ай бұрын

​@@ongjanette​of course! I was already looking for something smaller and cheaper. The only difference between them is basically the water resistance and the size, and those things didn't matter to me at the time, so it was not worth paying more for the paperwhite only to have those 2 features. I have the basic one for over 5 months now and I love it! I read for hours every single day and I only charge it every 15 days or less, also the kindle is so small that fits every single purse that I have so I can carry with me everywhere I go. I also use it for work uploading documents that I'll need to read and check while working.

Been searching for a side by side comparison of the screen lighting of the different Kindles! Thanks for this. I use an Oasis (and love it) but preparing for its eventual phase out. I hope I am wrong, but there hasn’t been any real news about it being upgraded. I’m partial to its asymmetrical shape and buttons… but if I have to choose another replacement, I’ll was hoping for a non-flush screen one like the Basic but the difference in the number of LEDs between the Oasis and the Basic will probably be too noticeable to me. But there’s something about a non-flush screen - I remember my first one, the Kindle Keyboard! Wonderful device :) completely sold me on ereading.

I have 2mm crack on my 2016 Paperwhite screen due to dropping an eye glasses case about a foot above the Kindle. It doesn't have the flush glass screen over the eINK display. When this happened the Kindle was in a neoprene case. For the basic Kindle I'd suggest a hard cover. For your Oasis cover I'd check the Dollar Tree for a thin cutting film you could cut to size to fit in what looks like an outer pocket. If the Oasis display is facing the plastic sheet but not in contact with it in the outer pocket you might have more protection if something like keys or a cell phone was dropped on the display.

Before I saw this there was no way I was going to buy an Oasis. You completely changed my mind. You reminded me of how the kinesthetic enjoyment of holding a book or device is almost as important as the enjoyment of the reading itself. Unfortunately, I saw this video in late March when the Oases were gone. I was crushed. I flailed around a bit trying to decide what to buy and finally settled on a PW SE. The very next day Amazon put a batch of certified refurb Oases up for sale. I quickly cancelled the PW and ordered the 8Gig ad-supported Oasis that I really wanted! I have been reading on it for the last 10 days or so and couldn't be happier with the Oasis. Your video was definitely spot on for me. Liked and sub'd. Thank you!

Hi. Thank you _so_ much for this! I believe that the "Basic" models you are showing are the 10th Gen. There is, I believe an 11th Gen option now, which, sadly is not available in white (no fingerprints!) I was always an avid reader, but bought a Kindle 4th Gen about 10 years ago, which, like yours, revolutionised my reading. That lasted till a couple of years ago, when I "upgraded" to the Basic White, 10th Gen, which I keep in a MOKO snap shut case, which I much prefer to the OEM Amazon case, as it's much lighter, but has the same functionality. However, I also have a nice, bespoke "sleeve," for when I want to go naked! 😱😱 Not sure that I really need to upgrade again for a while, as I much prefer the white option. I wouldn't mind if they brought back the page turning buttons though! 😉😉📚

I think older software allowed you adjust sensitivity to adjust for this. My favorite way to use the new paperwhite is with a case that stands on a table. It’s battery life and slim Denmark it a great travel companion Ergonomically and build quality the Oasis is unmatched.

One thing that i didnt see mentioned was Night mode options. The Paperwhite seemed warmer then all of them while Basic seemed more white. Do they have all have options to warm up the screen at night or just dimming options?

Great video! I am definitely the guy with 3 Kindles because I love them all. The only correction I would suggest is that the Kindle Scribe is not waterproof.

Thank you for this comparison! I love my Oasis, but it’s too heavy for me after about 30m. I was hoping the newer Paperwhite was lighter, since it now has warm tinting. I guess that warm light apparatus just makes everything heavier.

Hi! I was wondering if it was still worth it to buy a paper white this time of year because there should be an update soon?

@onemanbookclub2585

Depends on how long you want to wait! There haven't been any announcements, just speculation. The buzz I have heard is that the new editions will be color Kindles, which may or may not be interesting to you. I don't think you ever go wrong with a Paperwhite.

Maybe it's because I grew up as a kid with digital devices like iPhone/iPad but the Kindle Paperwhite makes reading so much easier for me and feels more natural than a real paper book. I like both but find myself having to reread the same sentences to comprehend with a physical book as where that doesn't happen on my kindle. Was born in late 90's maybe I'm messed up in the head. Kindle solved my reading problems though + ability to hold down on words I don't know for quick dictionary meanings.

No discount, but when you log into your new Kindle with your Amazon credentials, it will automatically recognize your Kindle Unlimited access. Good luck!

I still have my Kindle Voyage but I always end up on my phone to read & my tablet for cookbooks. I don't plan to upgrade my Kindle until they have a Kindle ereader with color because I own a lot of cookbooks.

Color tech in eReaders does exist, but it's not very good so far. Maybe soon?

I’m thinking about buying a kindle so I have an easy way to read books when I am in bed with a newborn. I’m trying to decide between the Paperwhite and Oasis. Which is best for one-handed use? I’m thinking having the page turn buttons would be easier than having to move my hand from left to right to turn pages, but how frequently will I actually be turning backwards? Any commenters have an opinion on which device is best for nursing mothers? Also, how is the screen responsiveness? All of them look pretty laggy in all the videos I watched. Any first hand accounts to share?

I think the creator mentioned in the comments that the Oasis is unavailable right now and hadn't been updated for a while. If I were you I'd want the most lightweight wch is the basic. Or Paperwhite if you don't mind a holding something bit heavier but with a much brighter screen. If you've been used to the 120hz scrolling or promotion, Kindles would seem laggy, but I don't mind especially as it doesn't tire my eyes as much and I can control font size. You don't need to swipe with the basic Kindle, just tap a bit to the right going forward, or a bit to the left going backwards. I have an old 2011 basic model though, but I doubt they would regress the functions with the newer ones. So I mean you can read with 1 hand on even the basic or Paperwhite even without buttons.

@onemanbookclub2585

@ongjanette is right, sadly. The Oasis is no longer available, although there have been referbs available on Amazon occasionally. If you can get your hands on an Oasis, I recommend the Paperwhite!

lm tempting to get the scribe. I got the paperwhite edition, but found that its too small, and Im not really enjoying the reading experience. Not sure if I should just stick with my ipad Pro... I can always switch off the brightness on my ipad so that it doesnt hurt my eyes... what I really like to see with the Kindle device is some colours. Even just blue, red and yellow color would help tremendously.

@onemanbookclub2585

If size is the thing, the Scribe would certainly help there. Hold an 8.5 in x 11 in pad of paper in your hand--that's about how big it is. But the trade off is the weight. To me, it's a bit too heavy to feel comfortable as my primary reading device. IMO its note taking features are what makes it a winner. You might see if you can find an outlet near you that has a Kindle Oasis you can demo. Oddly enough, the more square (and slightly larger) screen make a significant difference in the reading experience vs the Paperwhite. It may just be enough bigger for you. Good luck!

I switched back from Android apps to Windows but hate the e-reading on a laptop. I dug out a 2019 Kindle 6inch I had and it says updates to 2025 so I am looking. Thx for these comparisons but you forgot one thing: how does the OASIS particularily fit on a stand? The small 6" is a joy to read on a Moko cell stand. Im sure the Paperwhite wouldn't tip over but The Oasis charging side may be too thick. Any experience with stands for it? I want the slightly larger screen size and the buttons are an added feature over the Paperwhite.

Good review. I was so eager to get the bigger Scribe that I traded in my Oasis to buy it. A mistake! As you point out, the Scribe isn't really something you can read at night before bedtime. It's kinda big. Also, I seem to have problems getting the right settings on it for reading. I went back on Amazon the other day and bought a used Oasis, one of the last ones they had, I think. Hopefully, it'll last a while! I'll try using the Scribe for notes and such.

@@onemanbookclub2585 Fortunately, I was able to buy a used one on Amazon before they disappear. They sent me a 32gb w/o ads and it seems to be in good working condition. The resolution is much better than the Scribe, for me anyway, so I’m back to cruising through books. I’m sure I’ll miss the amazing battery life on the Scribe, though!

The Paperwhite will be perfect! There are some nice cases to add for a gift too. I'd only recommend the Scribe if the writing capability will be valuable to them. It's just a bit too heavy IMO to use as a casual reader.
