The protective case does not fully cover the Oasis. So (IMHO) the protective case is not all that protective.

Sounds to me you broke it in the fall.

Is this another one of those superb advanced Amazon features that seeks to replicate the damage on the ereader what happens book corners over time? I wish other companies had the foresight, wherewithal and technological advancement to build superb advanced devices with paint chipping off corners.

Only if you pay extra for the super-premium paint option. You can't really expect that kind of finish to come as standard

Note that Amazon doesn't *call* it a protective case (or do they?). They call it a cover. There are some felt envelope sorts of case which might be beneficial, in addition to the charging cover.

I've dropped my PW2 lots of times and never had chipped color. The front kindle logo is fading fast though.

Introducing the new Stonewashed Kindle, with that special "broken-in" or is that "broken end" look, so that people will think you read more than you actually do.
