Rumor is that a color Kindle is coming next year. Maybe the next Oasis will include it. I expect it to be very expensive too so don't be surprised if it has a $300 price tagLove my Kindle, but I wish it had a color option for comics. I hate reading them on my phone
Absolutely, I've been on the Kindle train since the Kindle Keyboard dropped. I typically read mine in bed or when I'm laying on the sofa.Got it. Really makes the reading experience better. Can’t lie.
The Oasis is done. They have the Scribe as the high end Kindle, the Paperwhite in the middle and the basic for the lower end. From a functional standpoint the Paperwhite is as good as the Oasis minus not having page turn buttons.Rumor is that a color Kindle is coming next year. Maybe the next Oasis will include it.

The Scribe seems like it's for an audience like the DX was way back in the day. I have no doubt we'll see a Scribe Color and I can see that gaining a wider audience.The Oasis is done.

The newest Paperwhite is better than the Oasis to me. The Oasis was actually my first Kindle and the battery life was terrible. I read a lot like at least an hour and a half a day if not more and I had to charge the Oasis twice a week. I charge the Paperwhite once every 2 weeks.The Scribe seems like it's for an audience like the DX was way back in the day.

I think it would be a big miss if they don't release a 7" (maybe 7.5" or 8" since the PW is now 6.8") device that can take notes on the page, has turn buttons, and is in color to rival the Kobo Libra Colour. The Oasis form factor has been so much of a favorite that other companies have copied.
Well the Oasis was 10th gen compared to the recent Kindles which are 11th gen with a faster CPU.The newest Paperwhite is better than the Oasis to me.

I just have a hard time seeing them having 4 different Kindle models going now. The 6.8 to 7 inch screen is almost a wash. I imagine the Paperwhite is much cheaper to produce than the Oasis. They likely sell more Paperwhites too. Maybe the next Paperwhite uses a pen and has a color screen.
The first color kindle is finally here
