Amazon Kindle Oasis 8GB With 7” display and page turn buttons

• Amazon Kindle Oasis 8GB With 7” display and page turn buttons Waterproof (IPX8) so you can read in the bath or by the pool. Your Kindle has been tested to withstand accidental immersion in water.
• Thin and light ergonomic design with page turn buttons.
• Reads like real paper with the latest e-ink technology for fast page turns.
• Instant access to millions of books, newspapers, and audiobooks.
• Works with Audible – pair with Bluetooth headphones or speakers to switch seamlessly between reading and listening.
• While Amazon has diligently made regular updates to its Kindle devices, the evolution of the e-reader’s software has been much slower. That means if you’ve owned any Kindle in the last few years you won’t have any particular problem using the new Oasis right out of the box. Devices settings, Goodreads, and the book store are all parked where you’d expect them, in the top toolbar along with the Home and Back buttons.

• The waterproof Amazon Kindle Oasis 8GB With 7” display and page turn buttons can be safely read in the bathtub and will even survive if you drop it in the water.Text on the 300ppi display of the All-new Kindle Oasis is noticeably crisper than on either my 8th-generation or All-new Kindle, both of which top out at 167 ppi. It’s the closest I’ve seen an e-reader come to the experience of reading a printed text on paper. Of course, you can customize the font, type size, line spacing, page margins, and more to your liking.Now that even the entry-level Kindle includes front lighting, the feature doesn’t seem so novel anymore, but it’s still welcome inclusion for nocturnal readers. As with the warmth lighting, you can adjust it manually in the settings menu. I found it easier, though, to leave it to the device’s built-in light sensor to adjust it automatically based on the room’s ambient light. I usually found its level selection just right.

  Reading on the Oasis remains a luxurious affair. I’ve always found it a little awkward to hold the basic Kindle or Kindle Paperwhite. Holding with thumbs on their bezels inevitably results in errant page swipes, so I typically resort to cupping those devices by the edges. That solves the page-turning issue but makes my hands fatigue faster. The Oasis’ battery bump makes the perfect handle for cradling the device comfortably in one hand. From there you can easily manage the page-turn buttons with your thumb, which I find much more precise than finger-swiping the touchscreen. Its feather-light weight allowed me to read for hours without any physical discomfort.

  I’m not bathtub reader, but in the interest of stress-testing the Amazon Kindle Oasis 8GB With 7” display and page turn buttons waterproof feature I submerged it in a bowl of water. Other than a few page turns, no doubt from the pressure of the water on the touchscreen, the device showed no signs of malfunctioning. Again, odds are the Oasis won’t be subjected to that level of water exposure during real-world reading, but it can handle a few drops of rain or a splash in the pool.
