(Sorry. Didn't read the the "ad" close enough.)

Some folks mentioned they liked the original Oasis better.

Kind of not such a great deal without the charging cover. Amazon seems to have none in stock, and there are no 3rd party charging covers.

Interestingly, Amazon still has Oasis 8th gen for sale ($289) with charging cover So only $289 to get a cover, with an Oasis 8th gen for free!

I didn't read that long title. I just assumed that a "refurbished" Oasis was complete. Sorry. I'll edit my original post.

Sorry I missed it. I would have gotten one.

I already have two charging covers but I seldom use them because the connection between Oasis and cover is so glitchy it keeps either forgetting it's attached or freezing up and having to be reset.

I just got a new Oasis (8th gen) three days ago, via Amazon's trade-in deal. I sent in my PPW 1 and Amazon gave me a $25 credit + 25% off, for a total of ($97.50) total credit to use towards the Oasis 6".

At first I thought it was just for the newest generation, but it works for ALL new Kindles.

I have always charged my Oasis without the cover. In fact I don't even know what the 'charging cover' is for. I do know it won't stay connected to the reader.

You can charge the Kindle without the cover. What you can't do is charge the cover without the Kindle -- which always seemed quite stupid to me.

I actually bought a spare cover but it wasn't very convenient to have to switch the covers to charge them. Since neither cover would stay connected to the Kindle anyway it's a moot point. I ended up using a sleeve instead and reading the Kindle with no cover -- and charging it more often that I liked. In the end I've mostly switched over to my Kobo Aura H2O2, Kobo Clara, and Nook Glowlight 3. Not that I have an ereader problem or anything.

Apologies, I got it wrong. Though you'd be charging it a lot if you didn't have a cover.

Got it this time.

I also ordered a PW4 today. I hope I can at least continue to resist the new Kobo Forma.
