Amazon is shooting it's self in the foot.

Ditched Amazon years ago because 1. What you're speaking on. 2. Hardware team just gave up after the Oasis 7" and have spent the past decade putting out nonsense with zero vision other than marketing while Boox, Kobo, Pocketbook keep iterating form and size and bezel considerations and 3. Other comp

Amazon restocking the kindle oasis

I feel like it's old stock they found that they hadn't planned on selling because they didn't realise how popular it actually was (based on my other theory that Amazon doesn't invest in any meaningful form of customer focused input or social listening when it comes to business decisions about Kindle

RIP Kindle Oasis - What's next?

There are a few Android eInk devices that are very similar to the 7’’ Oasis 2 and 3 in size and shape - Boox Go 7 for example, but there are others. They won’t have the battery life of good dedicated e-readers (Kindle, Kobo, PocketBook) but offer all sorts of flexibility. (And battery life isn’t as

Amazon to end support for older Kindles, prompting user outcry

I keep it on airplane mode all the time, which is what annoys me. I've also jailbroken it, following all steps to ensure no updates occur. It's a Kindle Oasis. Still, it reverted the process overnight despite no update being pushed. I had to factory reset it. Right now, I'm waiting for a brand new X

Feeling conflicted switching to Kobo

It depends on each person's use case, so I'll explain why kobo works for ME better than kindle. Amazon discontinued the kindle oasis and I didn't want to get a device without buttons. Kindle doesn't support Canadian libraries, but kobo has overdrive integration. Kindle's UI is horrible, the home pag

Ask Me Anything About My E-Ink Tablet Collection

I have a Kindle Oasis too and would be interested in OP’s opinion. I’m not a huge fan of it. I find it slower than I’d like in the menus and the sorting of books is kind of messy. I wonder if OP has thoughts on if the best model for speed and UI navigation.

Best Ereader for actually owning your books?

I’ll use my kindle oasis till it dies. But I only buy books on kobo for pc or direct from publisher now. Hate the stranglehold kindle has on indie authors.

What made you choose PocketBook over Kindle?

Really I wanted the ability to easily read a book I purchased outside of Amazon. Kindle made that EXTREMELY difficult. Most of the time the send to kindle was broken and just gave errors. It was so frustrating. My Oasis was a good device from a build and tech standpoint, but if it cannot read my own

Ereader purchase

10th gen Paperwhite - during Covid so couldn't get physical books. I had a Kindle keyboard but it was still attached to my mom's Amazon account and didn't want to turn the wifi off to put it on mine. Oasis - this one was super unnecessary. I just wanted to test it out and see what the fuss was. 12th
