International Version – Kindle Oasis – Now with adjustable warm light - 8 GB, Graphite

My Kindle pedigree is one Kindle, then 2 Paperwhites and now an Oasis. I am disappointed with the Oasis. All of the others worked fine everywhere. The Oasis is almost impossible for me to read in bed. Since this is one of my favorite times of day - needless to say I am not enjoying the Oasis and have gone back to reading regular books at night. I am hopeful this one will go bad soon. Then I can go back to one of the others JackH

Much more practical than physical books. Though it has these annoying flaws that I expect to be gone with the next generation of Kindle readers: 1. Not exactly like white paper of a new physical book. The background has an earthy grey tint. You need more light for acceptable contrast. 2. No purely red light night time mode. The warmest color setting still emits plenty of blue and green light that lowers your sleep quality. 3. Its cold and slippery. Doesnt feel that good in your hands. No good grip.

I like it, just got it so need some time to adjust.

Battery life is terrible. Have had this for just about a year and if I let it sit overnight even after charging all day this thing will be dead in the morning. Have a cheaper older Kindle that I keep I my car and only gets charged when the car is on and I dont have any problems with that one keeping a charge even with it sitting in a car in the cold and heat. I would normally get a case for any hand held device, but even if I didnt want to, this one needs one, it is very slippery to hold without one. This is not to say that I dont like this device, just wish the battery life wasnt an issue.

Upgraded my kindle paperwhite to oasis a month ago. Love it, was a bit expensive but worth it! It is lightweight, lighting adjustable and else same experience as paperwhite.

Me encantó, estoy leyendo más ahora que tengo un dispositivo que me proteje mis ojos

As a product claiming itself international version and charge us 20US dollars more, I would expect a product with some common sense in it. I am living in Hong Kong and we are using English and Traditional Chinese as our official language. Yet, the kindle store is forced to simplified Chinese store, which we do not read and write here. What will Dutch people think if they are forced to German store? What will German people think if they are forced to a French store? Hey, at least give us an easy way to switch to a language we understand, or do it properly without using the wrong language store, right? Yes, if I can get to the Internet and remember my password of Amazon account, I can switch it to the profile of my amazon account, to avoid the wrong store (simplified Chinese). But as a former British Colony, we speak and write English (UK) instead of English (US), thats why I chose the UK English. But if we made that choice, the Traditional Chinese input method is then unavailable, without a clue. Until I am forced to switch to English (US), I can find those input methods of Traditional Chinese, which is ridiculous. As a product costing nearly 300 US dollars, with a lot of Traditional Chinese books on store, with the population of 23 Millions in Taiwan and 7.5 Millions in Hong Kong, I cant understand why Amazon is still unable to provide a Traditional Chinese interface, instead of the simplified Chinese interface. It is rather sad the Quick input method of Traditional Chinese is still unavailable as well, which is said can be done easily by rooting the device, but voiding the warranty, so I havent tried. As a company with such a scale, would you just improve it?

Oasis is great in every way except the dictionary takes more than a second to pop up definitions.

Es muy buen producto, pero para ser tan Premium me resulta molesto que tenga un poco más de efecto fantasma (rastro de imágenes o letras de páginas anteriores en nuevas paginas) que por ejemplo en mi caso lo pude comparar con mi otro kindle paperwhite, obvio no afecta en la lectura pero para ser tan costoso debería ser mejor en todo a los anteriores modelos. De resto me parece perfecto en todo lo demás.

Its good, except if in a case for some reason the battery just depletes a lot quicker. Out of the case I had battery life of a week average. Gets a bit uncomfortable to told after a while
