I think oasis 3 screen is the same as oasis 2 which I had. The only advantage over a PW3 was larger area. The Oasis 2 screen is OK, but not any better than any other similar type. The PW4 (only) seems slightly poorer than PW3 or Oasis 2, but I've not seen later kindles. The later kindles sound OK from reading about them.

Edit:
The Voyage is only 6"? It's quite old.
Likely a PW5 is a better buy than Oasis or Voyage, but I prefer my Libra, Libra2 and Sage to my PW3 or Oasis 2 (3G /WiFi / 32G).
