I'm quite sensitive to ghosting so it does bother me, especially considering the Oasis cost x3 as much as my perfect Paperwhite. I probably won't return it even though there are also 3 annoying black dots on the screen (not dead pixels, more like flecks of ink stuck in the glass layer) because I bought it for a long overseas trip and it's difficult to return now!
Given how bad some Oasis models seem to be at ghosting and given that it bothers you, might it not be time to move away from Amazon and get a different brand that doesn't ghost so bad?
