There’s a lot to like about the Kindle Oasis. ![]() Amazon has also added a night-mode feature that shifts the display’s color temperature you can set it to change automatically on a custom schedule or at sunrise and sunset, but it doesn’t automatically adjust based on ambient lighting conditions. The Oasis is no longer the only waterproof Kindle, but it does have an auto-brightness feature that automatically adjusts the screen’s brightness level based on ambient light. Overall, the Oasis’s larger size makes it less practical to carry and hold than the Paperwhite. The Oasis is a little wider than the Paperwhite, though it weighs about the same, and it also has a larger 7-inch screen. Its design is unique compared with that of other Kindles, as it features an asymmetrical body (0.13 inch on the thinner edge, 0.33 inch on the thicker edge) with physical page-turn buttons along one edge. (The Kobo Clara HD, as with other modern Kobos, also has seamless OverDrive integration some other readers require a third-party software client running on a computer to transfer the files to the ebook reader.)Īmazon’s Kindle Oasis (10th generation) is the most advanced, and the most expensive, e-reader Amazon sells. ![]() With the Kindle Paperwhite Kids (and all other Kindles), OverDrive uses Amazon’s storefront, as well as the same wireless delivery you’d expect from a purchase. All of the ebook readers we tested allow you to use OverDrive to borrow free ebooks from your local library. Just a few examples include the capability to share purchased books with people on your Amazon Prime account X-Ray, which helps identify notable people and terms in your books the optional Kindle Unlimited service, which gives you on-demand access to a huge catalog of books for a flat rate every month and Amazon Kids+, which provides access to kid’s books, movies, TV shows, and more (a free, one-year subscription is included with the Kindle Paperwhite Kids). The huge collection of services that Amazon and its partners offer is a major reason why we love the Kindle Paperwhite Kids. While all readers allow you to side-load unprotected content, it’s important that they provide easy access to a large library of commercial books.
