I know many folks dismissed the differences as to be hardly worth mentioning when I brought up this topic for the previous Oasis contrast. Yet, when reading for long periods of time, the contrast is very important to me—perhaps the most important aspect of any e-reader for me.

I must confess I am a tad bit disappointed: I want to like the new Oasis, but will have to hold one physically in my hand to make a better determination on the Oasis 2, as I really like the features it has in being water proof, audible integration and screen size. But horses for courses and this is merely my personal preference.
Interesting how different people see things. I didn't order an Oasis 2, but in the pics I think the Oasis screen looks superior to the voyage. To my eyes the Oasis 2 screen looks clean and even, the voyage does not. I also prefer the softer off white color to the starker cooler toned voyage. Much easier on the eyes, imo. I wouldn't let yourself be disappointed solely going by the pics. Wait until you have it and use it first.
