Today we look at the lighting system on both of these e-readers. We take a look at the front-lit displays and the color temperature system.
This e-Reader is available now INTERNATIONALLY!
When it comes to the build quality, they are identical; Screens and all!
But there are a few differences we’ve found. Check out this vid to see more !

Thanks for the review and comparison…
any chance you can teach us how to uncase the kindle oasis 2 ?
I'm going to get the 3 because I don't have a Kindle at all but I'm super pissed that I'm buying a nearly $300usd device that does not have a usbc port. What were they thinking?
Cant they add a blue light filter on the older kindle devices via software update if they really wanted to?
It's surreal that a feature as old as immersive reading is apparently just never coming to the oasis lol… I was going to buy one and I realized just downloading the free app to my phone has more functionality than the highest end reader.
The Display of my Oasis has more a yellowish tinge. Buy two Kindles from the same type and you will get two very diffrent looking displays. I bought two oasis and send the one with the more blueish tinge back to amazon.
I just updated from Paperwhite to Oasis 3. Do you guys use the auto light-adjust function? I feel it is not very comfortable but it just needs some time to get used to.
This ancient technology has already been used on my old kobo. Is this herald the end of innovation? Just like smartphones in recent years?
My Oasis 3 screen is very uneven and has an ugly warm-white tone to green tone gradient when at warmth setting 0. ALSO the left side of the screen (opposite of the buttons) is way lighter than the side with the buttons on it. I cannot read not one line of text without this glaring distraction. It's very annoying im returning it.
The G2 and G3 are not identical. The sleep/wake sensor isn't the same. G2 covers do not wake up a G3 unit. Apparently, some third party G2 covers don't fit the G3 at all. However, I can't confirm because mine does. I think the comments I've read about it had something to do with a minor difference in the size of the battery casing.
👍 Hi Peter!
The new gen is a complete ripoff. I got a good deal on Prime day which was the last gen $200 32 GB model oasis. Love it.
There are two problems with kindle oasis 3.
Firstly it happens to stop supporting traditional Chinese Edision ebooks.
Secondly, the kindle oasis 3 awake/sleep magnet is differ to kindle oasis 2 which makes their case different.
So do you think it's not worth upgrading from Oasis 2 to Oasis 3? I like having new things so was considering it.
The new oasis doesn’t have rear magnets so many cases will no longer “attach” iPad-style.
all I considered is about the battery`s life. when Kindle oasis 2 released they said it last for weeks at light lv 10 for short reading. I bought it, use it, and guess what, I have to charge it at least once a week, if I didn't do it, it can not last for 7-8days. yes, I didn`t use it lightly, I mean sometimes I read 1-3 Hs, mostly around 90mints. However, in the same situation kindle voyage works much better than oasis 2, it really lasts for weeks. so if kindle oasis 3 `s battery is not improved, I would continue to use voyage till the next one which can replace it. the warm light system is cool, but I hardly use it. as an E-reader, there are 2 things is important, first is portable, and the other is how long can it last for. because it`s not a phone that we have to charge it daily, I love the 7 inch screen, but I have to say, voyage is the best kindle so far.
you can put it in your pocket, not the bag, and it really lasts for weeks.
I don't think they changed enough to justify a name change. They should have called it Oasis with warm lighting or something.
Still not sure why they didn't put the warm light on the 2 to begin with. I'll just stick with my OASIS 2 and my KOBO FORMS for now.
The page layout is slightly different when I open the same book with the same settings on both and hold side by side. The sleep/wake function does not work from 3rd party covers anymore and if you have those sweet magnetic covers from Ayotu then forget it. Will not stick to the back of the Oasis 3. Also, the Oasis 3 is brighter at the same light settings.
Amazon getting lazy.
Pathetic upgrade
Another possible difference: a lot of third party cases seem to have issues activating the sleep function when closed on KO3 but not with KO2.
How’s the battery life of Oasis 3 compared to Oasis2?
You guys forgot to mention the larger battery….it was a minimal bump but it's there…
I wonder why the newer one on the left has Special Offers, while the one on the right doesn't…
These videos for KO3 are not consumer friendly when someone looking for information before they purchase one.
The issue is – they are too modular and cause confusion. Look at the comments below. You have three questions that are answered in three separate videos.
Take this video for example. This should have been how your KO3 review should have started (with differences between the last mode KO2). Not a separate video and it definitely should have been added in your KO2 vs KO3 video.
So with future reviews. Please start with what's new (from previousmodes), then hardware and save software till the end (it's so redundant for kindle users).
I think what bothered me with your KO3 review. That it sounded like the KO2 never existed and. That everything in the KO3 was better (prossing, battery, display), because you never compare in your review.
Also in the future be careful when comparing Amazon kindle lighting starting temperatures. I bought a couple family members a couple paperwhite 4 as a gift and eatch one had a slightly different temperature from more white, to more, blue, to more orange. I think your mileage may vary with these starting lights.
I like my KO3 (never had a two), but think a fare a question(s) that you should have been in your review (for being a E-reader reviewer channel). Should people get the original KO2 for a cheaper price, or buy the new KO3 and should you upgrade from KO3 for a premium price.
I like your videos, but I'm not sure I liked how you handle this product.
Can you compare the warmth light with the Kobo Forma?
They’ll have to prise my Voyage out of my cold, dead fingers.
USB-c?
Good content, man.
