one minue silence for kindle oasis

[@chocolatefudge5263]

Lol!!

[@Nikkilodean19]

😂

[@FocusandFinishPlan]

it was so funny and harsh, but fair 😂😂☠️

[@bitmoji95]

Ahahahha I have an Oasis and is superb.

[@rineeshparai1780]

This is the kinda reviews we need

[@kingkam9982]

Kindle basic isn't just the budget friendly one, it's actually a pretty great option. Especially if you wanna be able to just throw it in you pocket. I chose it over my paperwrite

[@kabtnimahdi9000]

i chose it for that exact same reason so that i dont have to take a backpack everytime i am out as i can put the basic in my pocket

[@alyssablake345]

Curious why would you need a backpack/ why can’t you throw the paper white in your pocket? In the market for a kindle so I don’t know much about any of them!

[@Ramdas_Devadiga]

For me, nothing beats the Oasis. The metal shell, the balance of the device in my hands, is what makes it absolutely the second best thing to read from. #1 is physical books of course.

[@kevinju123]

Same for me. Its way better and I had the Paperwhite as well. I upgraded when the first Oasis was released and the one starting with "V" (doesnt remember) with the Buttons was discontinued.

[@anastasiay5137]

Same, I love my oasis

[@Qasibr]

I’m torn between getting an Oasis or a Paperwhite. The Oasis screen uses an older gen though, paperwhite has a newer model. Hardware buttons are pretty awesome though.

[@Sheerin777]

I have the ancient one with the keyboard on it. It's still going and it's awesome.

[@Prabhgunsobti7777]

😂

[@mble]

Removing the keyboard from Kindle was such an odd move. Like how are you supposed to reply to emails on that thing?

[@tushargupta4262]

​@@mbleit's not made for emails. Just reading.

[@Eileen_Lola]

My dad bought it for my mom forever ago to use to read books. She only uses it for scrabble lol

[@suave-alpaca8412]

Same. However my personal fave is the non touchscreen Kindle 4th gen. The page navigation buttons on both sides is my fave feature. I like it better than using touchscreen

[@axwal]

I have the Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition. One of the best tech I bought this year!

[@stinkystinkystinker]

Haha i bought the original 2012 kindle paperwhite back in May and its one of the best purchases ive ever made despite it being very old. It runs very well and I can read whatever I want (sailing the high seas if ykwim)

[@ykvs]

hows the battery? is it still good? does it strain your eyes as oled/lcd?

[@rossco7214]

all those models recently became unsupported

[@i_dont_know_who_i_am69]

[@ryanmc8583]

Man, I have to give you props. I can't stand these "reel" type videos KZbin has generously jammed into my selection on my subscription page but your reel + content was the perfect mix.

[@mikeagore]

This short looks like it was cut from your last Kindle overview, but I'm curious if the new base Kindle (USB-C, high-resolution) changes your recommendation at all

[@LadJamma]

I have an Oasis and love it. Reasons? Metal shell, power button on the top, and physical page turning buttons. I actually turn off the touchscreen. Only thing I’d change? I do wish it wasn’t so ‘square’ in shape.

[@LadJamma]

Update: Got my hands on a Paperwhite Signature the other day as based on what this guy is saying, I was considering changing. It felt cheap, and like it would break easily. I’ll keep my Oasis thanks. No idea on what grounds this guy is saying the Oasis is not worth buying. It’s probably the Kindle with the most tangible points of difference over the other Kindles.

[@wolfrig2000]

The reason to buy the oasis is because you want the physical buttons. I bought the oasis specifically for the buttons, got the LTE connection and the big storage, came out to like $400ish, and then I just use my tablet/phone and never bother because being stuck on Amazon services suck. Money wasted, but never regret something you wanted, especially if you worked hard and achieved it!

[@psy8917]

​@@rumiaesthetic776oh shit a beggar point and laugh

[@TheGracchi-pl3op]

I have the paperwhite & oasis. i use the oasis 95% of the time. It's just better all around. If they go on sale grab one.

[@T-Rex49.]

I have the 2012 Kindle Paperwhite. It still works. Pretty suprising

[@user-kq3xn3jp7m]

As an oasis user, I am deeply offended. The oasis gives you a level of comfort that the others don’t. It’s like paying for a Rolex, similar enough function, but that extra bit of glam

[@Vulpinate]

a rolex is a waste of money though, LMAO

[@Tracywhited2]

Oasis forever. It's the most comfortable to hold for people that read for hours at a time. It's lighter than the new paper whites which feel like a brick in comparison. The buttons are much more enjoyable for page turning imho. Well with the few extra bucks.

[@TrucVanThanhLam-w5h]

Great list of top eBooks! Immersive Translate, a web plugin, can help you enjoy these books in any language.

[@NightingaleNews]

“No reason at all to get a Kindle Oasis….” Excuse me, sir? 😒

[@anhnguyenthe9370]

I'm hate touching screen when I'm reading. So Kindle oasis is the best choices of me

[@CharlieJohnson963]

Actually, the power button on the top of the Kindle Oasis, is what makes the Kindle Oasis so much better to use. I cannot tell you how many times I have turned off my Kindle paperwhite by actually bumping the power button on the bottom, which becomes very annoying.

[@NadaAlawadhi]

I have oasis and I love it, easy to hold and flip through the pages. But these features are no very necessary.

[@eddiew2325]

Found the oasis user

[@mdtaranto]

No mention of battery life, weight in the hand, amount of lights around the screen. This is just a lazy "review" that is a waste of time. Funny that your comments seem to be pro Oasis, sort of telling, no?

[@minixmuffin88]

I love this review. Very honest & straightforward 😂

[@bonniemiles]

Ali is so productive he doesn’t even have time to stop and take his coat off before filming a quick video. love your videos, Ali!

[@sangpeters]

I'm buying the 6"

[@lorenzo.danese]

I usually agree with Ali, but not on this. If you're addicted to reading, the Kindle Oasis is a game changer.

[@pakistan_aviation]

You forgot Kindle Scribe

[@Bishlambo]

There’s absolutely no reason to own a kindle. Change my mind.

[@mav48185]

Oasis for me since it has cellular

[@SkullsDev]

Bro was speedrunning this video 💀

[@user-qx4ow8ho3z]

Can u pls do more vdo on kindle comparison?

[@nickyangelo]

Someone tell me which one runs side by side with audible so you’re able to read and hear at the same time having the words show up on kindle as audible reads it

[@kahj840]

iPad/phone is your only bet there unfortunately. I’d actually use my kindle for audiobooks if it had this functionality. Kind of ridiculous it doesn’t.

[@scarahjolielaide]

I think they call it whispersync?

[@Chess1503]

Scribe & voyage are also there

[@What-a-save]

never heard about voyage

[@begallampung]

standard is more than enough, others are just waste of money

[@HadiZulkipli]

I disagree, the Oasis with physical buttons rocks!

[@gregforcey827]

Agree. Also the Oasis is easier to use with one hand, which I frequently do when lying in bed.

[@HadiZulkipli]

@@gregforcey827 I've added 2 popsockets at the back of my kindle which makes one handed reading sooo much better

[@mae388]

Only reason I could get the oasis was because of the prime day sales haha

[@holyhellitsautumn]

What exactly is the problem with the basic kindle?

[@jdoh8078]

Oasis worth it for the physical buttons.

[@nerdalert244]

Great graphics!!👍👍

[@Dopeitsrico]

I rather just read physical books and have an iPad mini

[@nickNcar]

I love my oasis and love having physical buttons BUT planning on getting one for my girlfriend and yea...no way I'd spend that much again for 2 buttons 😂 plus I know she would be mad if I spent that much on her for an E Reader

[@tigsik3128]

I bought the standard due to its size

[@AetheriaLLili]

I have a 2013 kindle and it works amazing but it’s impossible to find a case or anything for it so I just bought a new kindle paper white

Plain and simple it sucks and has a tendency to spontaneously combust

[@Nikkilodean19]

May I ask why you don’t recommend the Oasis? Some people say the buttons are game changers.

[@AverageWagie]

Nobody ever mentions this but if the kindle model you're buying has a screen resolution of 300 ppp (some earlier versions of base kindle were only 150 ppp) it's literally perfect for reading manga

[@latte2221]

id like the kindle paper white but i already bought an ipad pro, is it still worth buying?

[@trym2121]

Well yeah if you can handle that ecosystem difference. Kindle is Amazon exclusive so you gotta use Amazon service

[@RuthEeeey]

I have both since I get highly distracted if I try to read with the iPad. With the kindle your focus is purely on what you’re reading. It’s also better on my eyes. Much less eye strain. That being said you can easily use the kindle app on your iPad and see how you like it.
