I also want to express my frustration having bought an Oasis a few days ago. I've already sent it back, the lightness gradient was too big of an issue for me.

At first glance it was really hard to tell. At second glance I noticed the little clouds at the thicker side. At third glance I saw the lightness gradient from the thinner (lighter) to the thicker (darker) side.

I might have said OK, whatever, I'll still keep it, but, when I turned the Oasis upside down and thicker side was on the left (to hold it with left hand), the gradient was now even clearer, so clear that I would have totally been unable to use the device this way (with the thicker side to the left). I also counted the LED lights, there didn't seem to be one missing. Reading about the issue here also made me think that this is an issue related to the design of the device hence I returned it.

I got the Voyage instead. Yes, my Voyage also has a slight gradient from top (darker) to bottom (lighter) but to me this is way, way less distracting than the Oasis issue. Once they produce an Oasis with a totally evenly lighted display I'll immediately buy it.
What a travesty.
