With the new 7-inch Kindle Oasis getting released this past week, the 1st gen Kindle Oasis has been relegated to the bench. Amazon doesn’t even advertise it on their main Kindle page anymore, and it’s been removed from all the Kindle banners and comparison tables. But now the 1st gen Kindle Oasis is as cheap […]

Kindle Oasis 2 vs Kindle Paperwhite 3 Comparison Review (Video)
Yesterday I posted a video review of the new 7-inch Kindle Oasis, along with some first impressions, and today I wanted to put together a comparison review between the new Oasis and the Kindle Paperwhite.

New Kindle Oasis 2 Video Review and First Impressions
The new 7-inch waterproof Kindle Oasis was released earlier in the week, on Halloween of all days. The high price is a bit scary but other than that it seems like a really nice high-end ereader, and it hasn’t tried to kill me yet so it would appear there is no Halloween curse. I put […]
