Indeed seems like a really minor change, which is what puzzled me when I saw that thread. I would expect the updates to their flagship device after three years to be a bit more significant.
Seeing that Apple was forced to replace their Lightning connector on the new iPhones in the EU with USB-C, could it be that Amazon is simply changing the connector to be in line with EU regulations? Somehow that’d be surprising because micro-USB, although old, is still an open standard and I don’t believe it is challenged in the same way as the Lightning connector is.
Anyway, I hope they do not miss this opportunity for a real revamp, the Oasis is sure due for one!
