This aside, the buttons on the Oasis were the best of any I've used. The Libra buttons aren't quite that good, although again they're not bad either. Only the outer ends of the buttons are responsive, not the inner parts. That should be kept in mind to avoid futile presses.
Thanks for that. Yes, I'm considering it as an alternative to my Oasis 2, and that's very helpful. While you're here, having handled both, could you compare the stiffness of the buttons of the two devices? I would prefer the Oasis buttons were a little softer, easier to press, but I think that might be an unpopular opinion.
