Kindle Oasis

I'm the same. I'm even considering soldering a USB-C port to my Kindle Oasis just for convenience

All other Oasis out there will have the same battery issue. I traded mine in roughly 2 years ago because the battery was kaput. If you want the form factor you're going to have to look to other manufacturers like Kobo or Boox. Boox is nice since it's Android based you can run the Kindle app on it an

Unfortunately Amazon already phased out Kindle Oasis line with 10th gen is the last your best bet is a used Kobo Libra 2 (Libra Colour is there too, but colour) or had to sacrifice the button with Paperwhite 5/6. Or sacrifice battery life with Boox Go 7

I guess it depends on what one compares it to - I can read about two regular novels on one charge on my Boox (with wifi off but frontlight on halfway through), which seems “decent” to me compared to, say, phone or iPad. But fair enough, I’m used to Kindle Oasis which was notoriously the Kindle with

Oasis 3 is several years newer and depending on how it’s been used, should last better (not as well as any other Kindle to be honest, as I think the Oasis line had the worst battery life out of all Kindles even as new; the “six weeks” isn’t saying a lot as it depends on whether you use it half an ho

Boox chooses some pretty weak batteries and the Android OS isn't as optimized as a focused OS: it is basically designed to waste energy. I use mine offline 99% of the time and it is set to turn itself off after 1 hour of standby and I still find the battery life laughable compared with my old Kindle

So I have both kindle oasis and kobo libra colour, kindle oasis' battery is not good, never has been, 6 weeks is a dream unless you're not using it at all. You don't really need to disable the touchscreen, I never used that option on the oasis, and I never missed it on the libra, because the wide si

If Koreader is easy to do, I think I'll first do it on my Kindle Touch to see how it behaves etc, and then I would think of buying Oasis maybe, but the battery life is very concerning indeed, thank you for letting me know!

I have a jailbroken Kindle Oasis 2 and while calibre WiFi transfer works like a charm and reading on it is fun... it has two major flaws. My battery measures around 90% of its claimed capacity so it should be still fine. But it sucks. Even without using the light a lot and with WiFi off. It feels li

Ah yes! I originally had a Kindle Oasis and recently bought a Kobo Libra Colour! Oasis has shitty battery life. I adore my libra, it is better overall regarding functionality, although the buttons are better with the Oasis!
