The Kindle Oasis is slowly trickling back onto Amazon. Earlier, it was marked as sold out in most regions where it was available, accompanied by a note suggesting it might not be available for purchase again. This led many to speculate whether it could mark the end of the road for the Kindle Oasis or if it’s a way to clear pending stocks for a whole new Kindle Oasis, something users have been clamoring for quite some time now.
Now, the good news on this front is that the Kindle Oasis is starting to reappear on Amazon after a brief sojourn. Many users on Reddit claim the Oasis is already available in their area with decent shipping times as well. So, those looking for gifting options can always consider the Oasis ahead of Valentine’s Day.
The Oasis is the most unique among Amazon’s Kindle lineup, boasting a 7-inch display and physical page-turn buttons. Its design, which includes an asymmetrical shape with one side thicker than the other to accommodate internal components like the PCB and battery, started a new trend in the e-reader segment.
The basic idea behind this design scheme is to provide a comfortable grip while reading. While it may not sit stably on a flat surface, e-readers are typically held while reading rather than placed on one. The super lightweight design adds to the reading pleasure, complemented by the 300 PPI display that ensures clear and crisp text.
It’s no surprise that the Oasis remains the top choice for those seeking a reliable e-reader with plenty of practical features, despite being on the market for several years.
