Is a Kindle Oasis worth buying for $70 in 2026?
Hello all!!
I'm thinking about buying my first e-reader, and after going back and forth between a lot of options, I came across an opportunity to buy a Kindle Oasis for $70. It's supposedly unused, still in the original box, and from what I can tell it's in mint physical condition with no obvious signs of use. My main concern is whether it's still worth buying in 2026. I know batteries can degrade even if a device hasn't been used, so that's definitely something I'm thinking about, but I understand even in bad condiction, it will work good. Since this would be my first e-reader and I'm still figuring out what I like, would the Oasis be a good starting point and then maybe upgrade to a newer device years later? Or would I be better off saving up and buying a new generation e-reader instead? I know opinions will vary, but considering this would be my first Kindle and I'm a bit hesitant about spending money on something I'm not yet familiar with, what would you do: go for the Oasis or buy something newer? Thanks in advance for any advice! |
