There's also plenty of storage space onboard, with 8GB being the starting point, but you can get a 32GB version of the Oasis if you've got (or planning on having) a large digital library. The buttons to turn pages are within easy reach of the thumb even if you have small mitts and have the smoothest performance of any asymmetric ereader on the market that sports these buttons. There's also the usual Kindle Oasis features we saw in the previous generation – a high-quality and large 7-inch display with E Ink technology that makes words on the page crisp and clear, and a 'ridge' on one side of the sleek metal body that has been designed for easy and comfortable single-hand use. The backlight can be adjusted from white to warmer yellow hues to reduce eye strain, and it can even be scheduled to become warmer at bedtime (say, 9:30pm for example). While it might be getting a bit long in the tooth (considering tech these days has a quick turnaround), it's still our pick for the most premium ereader you can get today.ĭespite an aluminum chassis, the Oasis is lighter than the plastic-bound Kobo Libra 2 listed above and its IPX8 waterproofing means it can easily handle an accidental dunk in the bath, the pool or the kitchen sink. If money is no object and you want the most luxurious reading experience a digital ebook reader can give you, then it doesn't get any better than the 2019 version of Amazon's Kindle Oasis.

Read the full review: Amazon Kindle Paperwhite

It really does make a huge difference compared to cheaper ereaders. It's a little pricey for a Kindle but it's a worthy investment. Also, it's waterproof with an IPX8 rating so it's perfect for using in the bath or while relaxing in the pool on holiday. Charging is faster too thanks to USB-C support, with up to 10 weeks of battery life possible here (an improvement over the older version).Įlsewhere, an adjustable warm light means you can change the screen shade from white to amber and get things just how suits you. Amazon promises up to 20% faster page turns than before and such differences soon add up. In addition, it's speedier than its predecessor. The screen offers a resolution of 300ppi with a glare-free display that means you can read it in bright sunlight without a problem. Even better, thinner borders means less plastic to hold onto or look at. It now has a larger display being 6.8-inches, and this is a big selling point as the previous model was a little on the small side.

The best Kindle right now is also the latest one: 2021's upgrade on the Kindle Paperwhite feels like a big jump up from its predecessor, making it the first port of call for people who want an Amazon ereader.
