Oh and those ads on the battery life are based on 30 minutes of reading a day.
So I don't think you have anything to worry about.
If you are still concerned contact Amazon and return it if it is still under warranty.
With your comments in the OP, I would recommend either a paperwhite or basic kindle.
I am referring to the device itself. I read without the cover.

Perhaps the Oasis is intended only for lighter readers? That would come closest to a reasonable explanation yet. It's strange, though, that such a high-end niche device as the Oasis would be targeted at lighter readers. It's seems self-contradictory to me.

If you're a heavier reader, and you read without the cover, my charging experience is far more similar to a cell phone. Yes, a cell phone will show little change in charge capacity in the first year of use. It's years two and beyond that will be telling.
