However the second one has a tiny pinhole in the text area. I will have to read on it and see if it is distracting. Overall I'm very disappointed in the screen. It may be whiter than my Voyage, but I still think my Voyage has more uniform lightning and less shadows than either Oasis and my older Paperwhites. I was hoping for an improvement and not a step backwards in my opinion.
I'm sorry to hear this. I too was hoping for a better screen on my 2nd Oasis which I don't have yet. Right now my Voyage has a better screen than my Oasis and if the 2nd one isn't better it looks like the Voyage will be the Kindle I keep for the next year.
