Coming from a B&N Nook ST which used to last for several weeks to a few months on a single charge, I was initially appalled at the Oasis 2's battery life. I need to charge it every few days if I'm reading daily for more than an hour. And that's with wifi off, airplane mode on, and the frontlight at around 7 most of the time.
But I've gotten used to it now. Since I'm never far away from a charger, this isn't a huge con and the reading experience is a huge upgrade over the Nook. It also helps that the Oasis 2 charges very quickly. In less than an hour, the battery is fully charged.
