I would rate the following as contenders for the title of "best ereader ever":

Kobo Aura H2O
Pocketbook Inkpad
Kindle Voyage

All three are uniquely wonderful in their own way. But the Oasis? It feels like a cut-down Paperwhite.
My initial impressions are similar. I think my Kindle Voyage is a more premium device than the Oasis. I miss the light sensor and the haptic buttons. I also like the origami style cover better. However I've only spent a few hours reading on it so maybe my assessment will change with more time.
