If the Oasis broke, I would not replace it, but if the Voyage broke I'd get a new Voyage.
I forgot about the case and power button.

I read with the kindle on a table to my left or right while I eat and in either hand when I hold it.

The Voyage cover is easier to open and close and works better as a stand and I press a button on whichever side I feel like at the time. The Oasis is a pain when I have to rotate it and I also have trouble from time to time with the power button getting bumped and turning it off or on when I don't want that to happen.

In fairness, when the Voyage goes to sleep in the cover, it is easier to close it and open it than trying to get to the power button
