As far as portability, the Paperwhite is better for me. I bought one last summer to take on a beach vacation, and it's become the one I take with me when I leave the house.

For me, the only real place the Oasis is better is because it has more LEDs.
I have to disagree with the larger screen. I like it. I hae a 6.8" screen with my H2O and I do not want to go back to a 6" screen. The larger screen just feels better when reading.
