First of all, if you will buy an Oasis 2 or Oasis 3 you should look for an used one cause a new Oasis will almost certainly come with the latest SW-Version. But before buying an used one you should ask the seller about the SW-Version on the device and additional to that, check if this SW-Version works with the jailbreak.
The warm light on the Oasis 3 is adjustable by a one finger gesture at KOReader and it works great.
I’ve had them both, the Oasis 2 and the Libra H2O. Unfortunately I deleted the pictures of the devices after selling them so I can’t compare them anymore. At this time my Oasis 2 wasn’t jailbroken to run KOReader on it, at the Libra H2O I had installed KOReader.
Now I’ve the Oasis 3 and the Kobo Libra 2. My favorite reader out of all my devices is the Oasis 3. I love the flush screen, the material and the possibility to JB and use KOReader on it. The last two things, JB & KOReader, took him to my loveliest one.
The display of the Oasis 3 is top, same at the Libra 2. The Libra 2 have the newer display technology. I’ve no battery issue with both readers and KOReader works at the Oasis 3 without problems.
I don’t know what issues with the Libra 2 and KOReader are existing. I load a book to the device via calibre, open the book and turn pages for reading, set him in sleep mode with the cover and this works. I love KOReader and all the things KOReader is able to do but in use, the things above written is my doing with KOReader.
And with the Libra 2 & KOReader it’s similar.
If you won’t have a risk about the SW-Version etc. for an used or new Oasis I would recommend to you a Libra H2O or Libra 2. Then you will have nothing to think or worry about.
Otherwise, if you want to take a risk, an Oasis is definitely worth it in any case.
Edit: I guess some of the people who offer their Oasis, especially the Oasis 3, are looking to the Scribe and will probably buy the Scribe.
