The Kindle Oasis reaches 30% thinner and 20% lighter than the predecessor: here Oasis, the new leading Kindle. Looking at it is possible to roll a strangeness at first, but over time you may notice that your visual aspect that concentrates weight and thickness basically in one corner makes sense and is good.
Looking the front of the device, you can see that the edges are also distributed in a different way from the usual Kindle line, with all the “black band” getting only one side.
You must be curious to know what the new reader Amazon can, right? So, come on. Is it worth investing in Oasis or Voyage is still in the running? ! Read our review and find out
Settings
The only specs confirmed by Amazon are:
- 6 Screen inch Paperwhite E-Ink Letter ™ technology with a resolution of 1,440 x 1,080 pixels (~ 300 ppi);
- 4 GB memory internal;
- Input USB 2.0
- Connection Wi-Fi b / g / n;
- Weight: 133 grams
It was not revealed what processor gives life to this new device, but as the predecessor came with a CPU 1GHz, we speculated that Oasis count on something similar. But of course, it’s all speculation.
With regard to the glass that covers the screen, it is anti-reflective, microtexturizado and form a single piece with the edges, which is great, because it prevents the accumulation of dust around. Given the proximity of the E-ink with external glass, here we have a great reading experience, with the same feeling of reading on a piece of paper. This means that Oasis does well even under the sunlight, quite different from the LCDs we are used to.
Usability and performance
As for performance, the new Kindle brings results similar to those of his two predecessors – Paperwhite and Voyage – with immediate exchanges between pages and fast menu navigation and precise.for example).
around the buttons there is broad support for holding the Oasis without bumping on the touch screen. Just grab the gadget around, placing the finger on the button, and you have no problem with accidental clicks – they are firm enough to avoid this kind of situation. (Photo: Canaltech)
Looking at the back of the new Kindle, we have a strange shape, with a bump: the fit to your hand. It is absurdly comfortable holding it with one hand only, and physics explains the reason: to play all the weight for that slot, the center of gravity of the Oasis moving and nullifies much of desgradável feeling of holding a book with a single to. It simulates the spine of a physical book and it is excellent
In short,. We like and approve the ergonomics of the gadget. It is comfortable, firm grip on and just works. The anatomy here was very well thought out.
Battery and accessories
Despite having a battery of only 250 mAh , a full charge of the Oasis can get to last up to two weeks. The secret to doing well here is the screen with electromagnetic ink, which does not spend energy to display content. He just needs energy to illuminate the screen (when necessary) and to change the pages
But then you should ask yourself:. With a battery of these it has lasted up to two weeks, why not put further charge? But know that yes, there is more cargo. The basic kit Oasis comes with a magnetic loader cover and just touch the device in it to begin charging. In there are more 1,290 mAh, which should ensure the alive Oasis for up to two months.
The downside of magnetic cover is just your size and weight, which completely spoils the lightness of experience and ergonomics product. It weighs 100 grams, which, combined with the weight of the appliance, let it all with 233 grams. But of course, connect and disconnect the cover is simple and you can recharge while not reading
It is worth
The worst of the best products is always the same: the price. To take a Kindle Oasis home, you will pay no less than R $ 1,399.99, a value unfamiliar to other product line of digital readers from Amazon.
In addition, the arguments in favor of this gadget are very scarce indeed. That’s because microtexturizado glass screen, with that face paper, the Voyage also has, and it costs $ 899. If the matter is the display pixel density, the Voyage also features the same 300 ppi – and here to the Paperwhite, which goes for $ 479, is a valid option
Another problem:. Oasis comes with price above Voyage, but do not bring your sensor for automatic adjustment of backlighting. In short, the only real justification for buying this new Kindle is its format, sensationally comfortable to hold with one hand, more like a physical book
So the tip is:. Either a Kindle? Go Paperwhite. Want a high quality Kindle? Go Voyage. Want to pay dearly for comfort? Go to Oasis.
