We also found that using the data took a big toll on the battery life, so you may want to be careful using this handy feature.
The Kindle Oasis also comes in a 4G model which will come in handy if you want to read new books while on the go, however, it’s worth noting that it won’t work with audiobooks. Since the Oasis comes with multiple storage options it’s more accessible to audiobooks, since Audible purchases are going to make a bigger dent in your storge and regular books, with the audiobook for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phonix coming in at almost 1GB. The Paperwhite Signature Edition has more storage, at 32GB, but you need to splash out.
The Paperwhite is a little more complicated, as the amount of storage you get depends on which edition you opt for, as this model, unlike the previous Paperwhite, comes with just one storage option, 8GB. The Oasis comes in two flavours, with 8GB or 32GB of storage.

Seeing as both the Paperwhite and Oasis are Amazon machines, they both come with free cloud storage for Amazon content and run on the same software. The extra LED lights will make the Oasis easier to use on sunny days, without review noting that the light is spread evenly across the entire display, with a range of brightness levels to suit all environments.īoth devices include the same warm light feature, so it seems overall if you would prefer a bigger and brighter screen, as well as physical buttons, the Oasis could be the way to go. Overall, the Oasis has a larger screen with physical buttons and a place to rest your hand, with our reviews noting that both e-readers are lightweight enough to hold with one hand. The inclusion of LED lighting on both devices makes it easier to read in brighter conditions, like during a sunny day. It features a 6.8-inch screen, 300ppi, glare-free E-Ink display, but with only 17 LEDs compared to the Oasis 25. The Paperwhite is a little smaller in comparison. During testing we loved the feature, finding it makes it much easier to read in lower lighting without straining your eyes. It has a warm light feature, which is also found on the Paperwhite, which brings in a variable orange hue when used in the dark. The Oasis has a 7-inch, 300ppi glare-free E-Ink display with 25 LEDs. The screens of both devices differ pretty sharply. Kindle Paperwhite 2021īoth devices have the same IPX8 waterproof rating, meaning that both can handle continuous immersion in water in up to two metres of water, though we would recommend trying to keep your readers dry.
This is largely due to a slight lag on the screen input. We also noted that the particular design of the Oasis makes it great to hold in one hand and that a case works better if you want to hold it like a book, with two hands.Ĭompared to the Paperwhite, we thought that the metal casing of the Oasis was more unwelcoming, though we prefer the use of physical buttons over tapping the screen, as you need to on the Paperwhite. It comes with two page-turning buttons on the side, which our reviewer noted were responsive and clicky. The newest Kindle Oasis kept the wedged design, with the same thin body and a display that sits further to one side. it was last updated in 2019.īefore we get into the specs, it’s clear that the Paperwhite e-reader is the cheaper option and we’d say it is much better value. The Kindle Oasis is the most expensive reader Amazon sells, meaning that it starts off at £229.99 with no ads.
