Kindle Oasis Stock Depleted - Possible Launch of New Model?
Amazon is anticipated to unveil new Kindle e-readers shortly, with indications that some existing models may be phased out. The Kindle Oasis in Merlot and Walnut colors is no longer available, and only a limited number of the black versions remain in stock. While Amazon typically provides a return-to-stock date for products, it appears that they might be working on a second-generation Oasis. This upcoming model is rumored to feature an enhanced internal battery and improved ergonomics, making it more comfortable to handle without the need for an accompanying case.
According to Michael Kozlowski, editor-in-chief at Good e-Reader, the Kindle Oasis has been discontinued and it is unlikely that Amazon will release another e-reader with page-turn buttons, a distinctive feature of the Oasis. Instead, the focus seems to be on newer models like the Kindle Signature Edition, which offers improved storage and wireless charging. However, these models lack the page-turn buttons and unique design elements of the Oasis.
If you are seeking improved ergonomics and battery life, you may want to consider these new models as alternatives, but they do not directly address the specific design or functionality of the Kindle Oasis. Good e-Reader has not reported on specific details regarding the features of the rumored second-generation Kindle Oasis.
The Kindle Oasis, equipped with page-turn buttons, may no longer be available, and it seems Amazon is working on a second-generation version that promises enhanced battery life and improved ergonomics. Meanwhile, newer gadgets like the Kindle Signature Edition, which offer improved storage and wireless charging, are gaining attention in the realm of e-reader technology.
