There was no built-in light in the touchscreen (Amazon does now offer this feature even in its entry level models). Next in my lineup was the super-basic Kindle 8 I bought in 2016. My little brother still uses it today, which just goes to show that these things are built to last. It wouldn’t have won any prizes for beauty, but it got the job done. I personally have been using various Kindle devices for about a decade, dating back to when my dad first bought the Kindle Keyboard in 2010.
After all, there are a host of cheaper ereaders out there including the Paperwhite, also sold by Amazon. But what this Kindle Oasis review aims to examine is whether or not it’s actually worth it. While it's nice to know that your Kindle Oasis is safe to use at the pool, beach, or in the bath, if it does become fully submerged in salt water, chlorinated water, or soapy water, you will need to rinse it with fresh water before allowing it to completely dry.There’s no doubt that Amazon’s flagship device is one of the most expensive ereaders available on the market today. It's also important to note that an IPX8 rating doesn't make your Kindle Oasis waterproof against water at high pressure, so pool jets, waves, and hoses are a no-go. While this certainly makes it more waterproof than the base-level Kindle models, it still won't tolerate immersion in salt water, and Amazon still recommends quickly retrieving and drying your Kindle if it accidentally gets wet. The Kindle Oasis has an IPX8 rating, meaning that it can withstand complete immersion in fresh water for up to 60 minutes at up to 2 meters depth. Like the Kindle Paperwhite, the Kindle Oasis has been designed to withstand a certain amount of exposure to liquid, but that doesn't make it truly waterproof.
