Kindle Oasis vs. Paperwhite comparison

2016-05-12
I just got the new Kindle oasis this thing is super thin it's super fancy and it comes with this great cover I mean I I just feel smarter already okay why did you spend nearly three hundred dollars on a Kindle because I have the old paper right here and it's totally fine yeah but this is new and this one's just a hundred bucks it's also square and this one's rectangular which is more like an actual book here's what you need to know about the new Kindle it's thinner and lighter than the previous model it weighs just 4.6 ounces and it's really comfortable to hold in one hand especially if you're holding it on this side okay the paperwhite is a little bit heavier than that it weighs around 7 ounces but I can still hold it comfortably in one hand also like I mentioned earlier this one's square it still has a six inch display but it's crammed into a more compact body I still don't see what the big deal is with square it's more ergonomic also it has physical page turn buttons on the side here oh yeah well you can just tap on the screen here to turn pages on this one yeah new Kindle Oasis lets you do that too the display on the new Kindle Oasis has a resolution of 300 PPI or pixels per inch so does the Kindle paperwhite yeah but the Kindle Oasis has 10 LED lights for brightness and page lighting consistency what does yours have this one has 4 LED lights but it still looks pretty even also when you turn the Kindle Oasis upside down like this the page flips with you this one doesn't do that but your fancy new Kindle over there still isn't waterproof and it's called the Oasis I mean they literally named it after an area of water and it's not waterproof and it's $300 sorry did you say something I was reading on my new Kindle Oasis let's talk about covers yes let's talk about covers this cover comes with the new Kindle Oasis for free unlike other Kindles and it's super easy to put on and take off well this one's really is gonna take off debut just you just get your nail in there you go just just pop out the corner and it clicks there it is it was too breezy this one even smells good like actual leather-bound books well listen that thing is basically a battery pack disguised as a fancy leather cover and Amazon says the new Kindle louis's will get months of battery life but without the cover it just it gets weeks of battery life which is just like every other Kindle so what it's a cool design and it's a good way to add extra battery life without adding bulk to the actual hardware listen the end of the day this new Kindle Oasis is the Kindle to be it's smaller it's thin it's light it has a nice evenly lit display it has physical buttons here it has a touchscreen and it comes with this great cover that extends battery life okay I'll admit that Kindle is pretty nice but it starts at $290 for a model that shows you ads on the lockscreen and then goes up to three hundred and eighty dollars for a top-of-the-line model and that's a lot of money you can still get something like the paperwhite or like the Kindle voyage for a lot less and have a pretty nice ereader I'm sticking with this one Alexa read it out loud Alexa download the everything store Alexa call me an uber you know she doesn't work on that I wasn't able to understand the question I heard
