Oasis

I switched from Kindle to Kobo last summer after accidentally dropping a tungsten box cutter on my Oasis. Best accidental ereadercide ever.

I switched from Kindle Oasis to Kobo Libra Colour and will try to answer some of your questions. You can change the screen zones from the settings, I can't remember what the default was but I have the whole middle part for the menus not just the bottom of the screen, and you can drag from the top to
