Unfortunately Amazon has ruled that buttons are unnecessary on current and future Kindles. The only other slightly modern Kindle that has buttons is the Voyage. It is different in that the buttons are haptic and are on both sides of the screen. The power button is on the back towards the top of the device.

Does the oasis really have the power button at the top and charging port at the bottom? Or perhaps it has the power button at the bottom and the charging port at the top… is the glass half full or half empty?

For the Oasis 2 and Oasis 3, it depends on what you mean by top and bottom. The left handed might have a different perspective than the right handed.

The default orientation is turn buttons on the right and power button on top. It can be used in either orientation, but will always power up as if the buttons are on the right side.

If its one of those clip to the side of your screen ones and you hold a clicker it'll work with any e reader that has a capacitive screen.

You cannot say future Kindles. You do not know what Amazon has in mind for future Kindles.

They said it in an interview. They have no plans to release a Kindle with buttons.
