Not as comfortable to hold with battery cover attached, Shorter battery life than older, less-expensive models
With similar performance to other e-readers that cost much less, we can't recommend Amazon's Kindle Oasis to everyone. But for voracious readers with a taste for luxury, this e-reader's light weight, excellent ergonomics, and even backlighting are wor...
