But there are his publications. Since the end of 2014 are more than a hundred short stories, two
looking for the” book 2.0 “, the conventional texts with multimedia extensions linked to Amazon has come up with an interesting new format. eBooks from the division “Kindle in Motion” can be on dedicated readers browse, play all their strength but only on smartphones and tablets from. Readers of the first hour are excited.
Enhanced eBooks have a short and highly convoluted history. In the book industry, they were by 2010, the year of publication of the first iPad, as the next big thing. Because large investments in complex multimedia projects such as Rowohlt Digital Paper Plus series but faced only marginal revenues, Enhanced eBooks have become an exception (and successful title a true rarity).
In the industry has faith prevailed, books on smartphones and tablets would have to be completely rethought. One example is Oolipo, in the read-streaming app of Lübbe should be told about the Whatsapp messages-style short stories. All the more deserves more attention, what Amazon has come up with “Kindle in Motion”. The online retailer introduced the new format without any notice, first noticed it was by members of the authoring Forum Kboards
animations, videos, backgrounds -. On switching
background of KIM-title
So far, there are only 6 Kindle in Motion titles, all from Amazon itself postponed (and correspondingly also designed) were. Even when visiting one of the article sides it comes to eye-opening experience: The cover is a video, the background of articles adapted. Both elements, videos and thematic backgrounds, can also be found in the “Kindle in Motion” eBook again. There are also matching animations that “support the story” according to Amazon.
The enrichments are displayed only on request and only on compatible devices, ie tablets and smartphones. Unlike “conventional” Enhanced eBooks, the title can also browse normally on an ebook reader. Then there is of course only the text.
The eBook costs with and without animation matter. Amazon stressed “Kindle in Motion” there was “no extra cost” to the reader. This is only half the truth – the production costs and, consequently, the economically reasonable selling price is higher, E-Ink reader subsidize it were enriched reading experience of LCD readers
Outstandingly positive reader echo
the Fachblog the Digital Reader has looked at some of the 200 to 400 Mbyte heavy Kindle in motion titles and is done. Especially the custom backgrounds would enrich the reading experience clearly. They are implemented technically clean and adapted themselves to a variety of text and screen sizes.
Also, the echo of buyers of Kindle-in-motion title is outstanding positive. The animations are described mostly as “great bonus”. Some readers already wished, each book would “Kindle in Motion”.
High marketing value for Kindle platform
“movie in the book”
Amazon is the positive feedback register very accurately. If the enthusiasm is reflected in the number of downloads, the experiment will be extended with safety on other Amazon Publishing titles.
As often happens with Amazon should not direct funding are paramount. With several KIM launch titles professional actors were hired for the video enhancements, these costs is to recoup solely through additional sales because of these enhancements (!) Again unrealistic. Another unique feature of the Kindle platform “Kindle in Motion” can also have a tremendous marketing value.
In indie circles will now, of course, discussed whether a tool to enrich the own title is in sight. If, then would it be a very standardized modular system. The technical effort to make about bats flying through a page, but is enormous.
Self Publishing is the German book industry clearly in vogue. This also shows the Kindle Storyteller Award, which takes place for the second time this year.

e-reader can see almost the same -. And still is the choice of a Readers significant than with a smartphone or tablet. Because the purchase falls not only on the hardware, but it decides also, where you can buy ebooks with its Reader -. And what books are even available
are particularly strong, the boundaries between Amazon Kindle and other competitors like Kobo Tolino or pulled – they are not compatible in terms of e-book formats with each other. But even if you have already decided on Kindle, Kobo, or Tolino: Each manufacturer offers different models at prices 70-290 euros, which often differ only in technical nuances
If you already. know what brand you want to buy a reader and only have to decide between the different models, you can directly jump to buying guides below:

Why at all a E- book reader? Also on tablets or smartphones can read e-books, for example with the Apps Kindle or Tolino. But e-reader are special readers whose hardware is perfectly tuned to reading. They are relatively light and handy for their size, have a paper-like display and significantly longer durations than a tablet or smartphone. When the LED is off all readers run more than 24 hours straight
But your biggest advantage is its reduction to the essential. They are not distracting from reading. Whoever reads on his cell phone, is nuf a tap away from distracting apps like Sports Ticker, Pokémon Go or email client. When e-reader however, one can very involved at the book – as in paper.

e-reader as display technique so-called electronic ink. It is now almost exclusively produced by the market leader E Ink, inserting its panels in all known Reader models. On them see texts as printed and remain excellent readable even in sunlight – unlike tablets. Because E Ink panels work without a backlight, they consume significantly less power than LCD. The presentation of a book page alone requires no electricity again until the leaves

remain after the break pale residue of the previous page. In poor readers which looks something like a printed newspaper in the show through the letters back. To remove these residues completely, the reader invert the page content every few pages, which can interfere with the reading. The inversion can be switched off on nearly all readers, or at least reduce. On newer readers these residues are barely perceive, so that with them the inverting only happens when you scroll through the menus and after 10 pages or even less frequently.
E-book panels are just like LCDs prone to scratches or cracks in the display. An additional case is therefore advisable, if one takes the reader everywhere and also likes to put in a full backpack.
Kindle vs. . Tolino, Kobo and Co
Technically, the e-books of all manufacturers are similar – a decent device found anywhere. The biggest difference is in the software: Amazon has built up a complete ecosystem around its e-reader Kindle. The reader is compatible with the in-house formats Mobi and AZW with and without copy. The DRM system of Amazon almost every book in the Kindle Store is provided. The usual with most other booksellers Epub not open the Kindle. Whoever opts for a Kindle, will later buy his e-books at the online retailer
The competition is open:. Tolino, Kobo, Pocketbook and most other readers manufacturers support the open source format Epub and it aufsetzende proprietary copy protection system Adobe DRM. Books can be there so easily exchange between different reader models. In addition, you can buy e-books from various dealers: A purchased Thalia Tolino does have the Thalia store only pre-installed, but no problems synchronisert ebooks from ebook.de, worldview and other – with the Kindle can not do that.
Both systems have advantages and disadvantages: the close relationship with Amazon and the good shop concept provides an extremely high level of comfort when managing and sale of books. If one has his reader linked to a Amazon account, it makes all previously purchased from Amazon e-books available for download, including highlights, bookmarks and current reading progress. This one has always been a backup on hand and has the change to a new unit immediately as his entire library in your luggage. Is the Reader times not within reach, to read with the Kindle app continues on your smartphone, tablet or PC. synchronized on the more expensive Kindle models and I buy e-books even via UMTS in Germany and abroad with no ongoing fees; as comfortable it is with any other reader. For all the books there are excerpts, mispurchases may be returned for 14 days.
Meanwhile, Kobo and Tolino have drawn level in comfort. While managing does not work quite as convenient as Amazon, and no other is so accommodating when returning e-books. But they also offer browser and smartphone apps and sync via Cloud between devices. The Tolino binds via the telecom cloud a the accounts of all Tolino partner, so you can combine purchases at Thalia, worldview, ebook.de, Hugendubel and some other booksellers. At Tolino readers can also use the Wi-Fi hotspot Telekom
e-book listing. Epub vs. Kindle
German eBooks offering in Kindle and other e-book readers is almost identical, the prices are due to the book prices the same everywhere. In English-speaking Amazon has far ahead: There is the greatest supply, also are English e-books from Amazon sometimes significantly cheaper than at Kobo or ebook.de. Some vendors like Thalia or worldview have few English-language e-books. Here you have to buy in doubt the books on the PC via the browser in other Epub providers and then upload via USB to the Reader.
Also an advantage is the Kindle for self-publishing titles, ie books, the authors brought out even in the back without major publisher. Here, Amazon has the largest offer, although now other publishers and booksellers have followed with their own self-publishing platforms.
Paid E-Books have long been almost always provided with copy protection, this is changing. In our last test in the spring of 70 percent of our test-basket of 50 current bestsellers and classics without copy protection were available. However, this applies only for Tolino, Kobo and Co., because the Kindle almost all e-books are also provided with copy protection.
On all readers but can also read e-books from other sources, for example, public domain works of gutenberg.org. This one invites easiest via USB to the reader – that goes for all manufacturers. In principle, therefore, one can most readers also use without ever buy in the shops of the manufacturers books, they can even operate without user account. Exception Kobo: Here a user account must be installed, otherwise the reader from Kobo not start
rental services such as the popular in Germany eLibrary work exclusively with Adobe DRM;. so they can be used only with readers like Tolino or Kobo. Amazon provides for an e-book flat rate for 10 euros a month to (Kindle Unlimited). There you but rarely gets unlike the eLibrary Bestseller, which is why the offer for most not worth it.
E-Books for children, social media, foreign languages
In terms of practical additional software beats the Kindle its competitors by a mile: children can log in with restricted user account and families with multiple accounts and readers share content. The Kindle is optional on the most popular marks of other users and makes it possible to post text strings on Twitter and Facebook. Convenient for Language learning: From the looked-up words of Kindle generates a vocabulary-learning box and displayed in English books in unusual words in small print about a statement a

Easy Kindle vs.. Paperwhite vs. Voyage vs.Oasis
All four currently available models of the Kindle have a decent hardware on which reading is fun. All have an E-Ink display in paperback size (6 inches), connect via wireless to the Kindle Store and be operated by touch screen. Be careful when buying a used device: From the entry-level Kindle and the Paperwhite there are older versions, some of which are equipped with significantly worse display – some do not even have a touch screen. We have the Kindle Paperwhite of 2015 and the simple Kindle 2016th
Kindle (2016) for 70 Euro is right for all those who read only occasionally and no great demands on have a Reader. The software works just as smooth as the more expensive Kindle models, and provides them otherwise not to. However, the E-Ink display is worse: With 167 dpi of the reader solves low and the contrast of the E-Ink Pearl display is slightly weaker. Also adversely falls on the more beefy, not particularly nice plastic case – which is about 160 grams but relatively easy. But major disadvantage is the lack of integrated LED lighting. When it gets dark, you need an external light to read the simple Kindle. On the Start menu and in the lock screen displays the Kindle advertising. Those who do not want the 10 euro more expensive version has “no discount” buy.
Kindle Paperwhite offers from all readers the best value for money. For 120 euros, there is a higher screen resolution than the best Kindle and integrated LED lighting. Who is much traveling abroad should definitely consider the version “WiFi + 3G Free” into consideration. The is from 180 Euro are considerably more expensive, but it allows one to download and abroad at no additional e-books and in some countries even to surf. Real fun surfing on a e-reader not – but at times get the news or the weather forecast, that’s enough

Kindle Voyage in test

Kindle Voyage has over the Paperwhite few advantages: practically the touch keys to scroll, and automatic adjustment of LED lighting – the housing plan with its surface and only 7.6 mm also a bit fancier than the Paperwhite. That alone does not justify, in our view, the 70 euros extra: The Voyage costs depending on the equipment 190-250 Euro

Kindle Oasis is innovative and looks chic, is at prices starting at 290 euros but extremely expensive. If one uses it without battery casing, it is by all readers handiest and is best suited for one-handed reading. The scroll buttons are ergonomic and easy to operate. The thicker side can be used as a handle; because the display contents can be fully rotated, it works well for left-handed, holding the handle just in his left hand. in the c’t laboratory test The Oasis showed comparatively short battery life: he ran only 12 hours lighting at 50 cd / m² (about average brightness level). but If you put it in the enclosed battery cover, he comes to a record 30 hours, 105 hours without an activated LEDs.

The standard equipment of Tolinos is comparable to that of Kindle: All connect via WLAN with the shop, all have a 6-inch E-Ink display, all can be operated by touch screen and have no mechanical scroll keys.
Tolino Page costs the same as the entry-level Kindle about 70 euros. He has no major weaknesses: The screen dissolves somewhat coarser than the more expensive reader, but is just as rich in contrast, because it already uses the latest E-Ink-generation Carta. On the not particularly stylish enclosure have to get used, the reader is but handy and relatively easy. The greatest disadvantage compared with Shine and vision is the lack of LED lighting: When it gets dark, you need a reading lamp
image 1 of 13
Tolino vision 2HD (left) and vision 3HD (right) if the LED (image: c’t)
also the Tolino Shine 2HD is not particularly chic: As the Tolino Page one uses it exclusively via touch screen, below the display, there is a button that always leads to the home screen. Compared to the Page you get a higher-resolution display and LED lighting. For 119 euros, the Shine 2HD is the appropriate e-reader for anyone who wants to have a decent reader with LEDs and no Amazon.
In the Vision 3HD you pay 40 euros more than for the Shine: the worthwhile mainly because the reader is waterproof and looks more beautiful than Page and Shine. Although our experience, endures every reader water splashes and even a light rain, because the housing have few openings. There is a simply more secure when you have to worry about water damage when reading in the bath or on the beach though.
Otherwise, the hardware is almost the same as in Shine 2HD. The special function “tap2flip” is a matter of taste: Scroll be tapped with the finger on the reader backside. That works only reliable when little harder knocks and could our test very convincing.

Kobo Touch 2.0 will cost 90 euros and provides for only a low-resolution e-ink display with the no longer current Pearl technology. This corresponds to the entry-level Kindle which is a bit lighter and more.
Kobo Glo HD is for 130 euros approximately at the level of Kindle Paperwhite and Tolino Shine in terms of technology : high resolution display, good LED lighting, smart and handy case. Compared to the competition, he scores with something fancier menus and the connection to the online service Pocket, which brings marked by WLAN sites in an eBook optimized view to the reader.

Kobo aura H2O
The aura H2O is water proof and can withstand a water unharmed.
Kobo aura H20 will cost 180 euros. He plays technically in the same league as the Tolino Vision 3HD and Kindle Voyage. Its most outstanding feature: The Aura H20 is the only reader with a larger display. 6.8 inches diagonal sound towards the reader usual 6 inches is not exceptional, but make reading quite a difference: The panel has the size of a normal paperback, while other readers are slightly smaller. Thanks to the angled on the back to the sides plastic housing of the Reader is still just as handy as the smaller Reader. The H2O is also waterproof. (

Some vendors like Thalia or worldview have few English-language e-books. Here you have to buy in doubt the books on the PC via the browser in other Epub providers and then upload via USB to the Reader.
Also an advantage is the Kindle for self-publishing titles, ie books, the authors brought out even in the back without major publisher. Here, Amazon has the largest offer, although now other publishers and booksellers have followed with their own self-publishing platforms.
Paid E-Books have long been almost always provided with copy protection, this is changing. In our last test in the spring of 70 percent of our test-basket of 50 current bestsellers and classics without copy protection were available. However, this applies only for Tolino, Kobo and Co., because the Kindle almost all e-books are also provided with copy protection.
On all readers but can also read e-books from other sources, for example, public domain works of gutenberg.org. This one invites easiest via USB to the reader – that goes for all manufacturers. In principle, therefore, one can most readers also use without ever buy in the shops of the manufacturers books, they can even operate without user account. Exception Kobo: Here a user account must be installed, otherwise the reader from Kobo not start
rental services such as the popular in Germany eLibrary work exclusively with Adobe DRM;. so they can be used only with readers like Tolino or Kobo. Amazon provides for an e-book flat rate for 10 euros a month to (Kindle Unlimited). There you but rarely gets unlike the eLibrary Bestseller, which is why the offer for most not worth it.
E-Books for children, social media, foreign languages
In terms of practical additional software beats the Kindle its competitors by a mile: children can log in with restricted user account and families with multiple accounts and readers share content. The Kindle is optional on the most popular marks of other users and makes it possible to post text strings on Twitter and Facebook. Convenient for Language learning: From the looked-up words of Kindle generates a vocabulary-learning box and displayed in English books in unusual words in small print about a statement a

Easy Kindle vs.. Paperwhite vs. Voyage vs.Oasis
All four currently available models of the Kindle have a decent hardware on which reading is fun. All have an E-Ink display in paperback size (6 inches), connect via wireless to the Kindle Store and be operated by touch screen. Be careful when buying a used device: From the entry-level Kindle and the Paperwhite there are older versions, some of which are equipped with significantly worse display – some do not even have a touch screen. We have the Kindle Paperwhite of 2015 and the simple Kindle 2016th
Kindle (2016) for 70 Euro is right for all those who read only occasionally and no great demands on have a Reader. The software works just as smooth as the more expensive Kindle models, and provides them otherwise not to. However, the E-Ink display is worse: With 167 dpi of the reader solves low and the contrast of the E-Ink Pearl display is slightly weaker. Also adversely falls on the more beefy, not particularly nice plastic case – which is about 160 grams but relatively easy. But major disadvantage is the lack of integrated LED lighting. When it gets dark, you need an external light to read the simple Kindle. On the Start menu and in the lock screen displays the Kindle advertising. Those who do not want the 10 euro more expensive version has “no discount” buy.
Kindle Paperwhite offers from all readers the best value for money. For 120 euros, there is a higher screen resolution than the best Kindle and integrated LED lighting. Who is much traveling abroad should definitely consider the version “WiFi + 3G Free” into consideration. The is from 180 Euro are considerably more expensive, but it allows one to download and abroad at no additional e-books and in some countries even to surf. Real fun surfing on a e-reader not – but at times get the news or the weather forecast, that’s enough

Kindle Voyage in test
The Kindle Voyage dissolves with 1440 x 1080 pixels (300 dpi) on. (image : c’t)
Kindle Voyage has over the Paperwhite few advantages: practically the touch keys to scroll, and automatic adjustment of LED lighting – the housing plan with its surface and only 7.6 mm also a bit fancier than the Paperwhite. That alone does not justify, in our view, the 70 euros extra: The Voyage costs depending on the equipment 190-250 Euro

Kindle Oasis is innovative and looks chic, is at prices starting at 290 euros but extremely expensive. If one uses it without battery casing, it is by all readers handiest and is best suited for one-handed reading. The scroll buttons are ergonomic and easy to operate. The thicker side can be used as a handle; because the display contents can be fully rotated, it works well for left-handed, holding the handle just in his left hand. in the c’t laboratory test The Oasis showed comparatively short battery life: he ran only 12 hours lighting at 50 cd / m² (about average brightness level). but If you put it in the enclosed battery cover, he comes to a record 30 hours, 105 hours without an activated LEDs.

Tolino Page vs. Shine 2HD vs. Vision 3HD
The standard equipment of Tolinos is comparable to that of Kindle: All connect via WLAN with the shop, all have a 6-inch E-Ink display, all can be operated by touch screen and have no mechanical scroll keys.
Tolino Page costs the same as the entry-level Kindle about 70 euros. He has no major weaknesses: The screen dissolves somewhat coarser than the more expensive reader, but is just as rich in contrast, because it already uses the latest E-Ink-generation Carta. On the not particularly stylish enclosure have to get used, the reader is but handy and relatively easy. The greatest disadvantage compared with Shine and vision is the lack of LED lighting: When it gets dark, you need a reading lamp

also the Tolino Shine 2HD is not particularly chic: As the Tolino Page one uses it exclusively via touch screen, below the display, there is a button that always leads to the home screen. Compared to the Page you get a higher-resolution display and LED lighting. For 119 euros, the Shine 2HD is the appropriate e-reader for anyone who wants to have a decent reader with LEDs and no Amazon.
In the Vision 3HD you pay 40 euros more than for the Shine: the worthwhile mainly because the reader is waterproof and looks more beautiful than Page and Shine. Although our experience, endures every reader water splashes and even a light rain, because the housing have few openings. There is a simply more secure when you have to worry about water damage when reading in the bath or on the beach though.
Otherwise, the hardware is almost the same as in Shine 2HD. The special function “tap2flip” is a matter of taste: Scroll be tapped with the finger on the reader backside. That works only reliable when little harder knocks and could our test very convincing.

Kobo Glo HD is for 130 euros approximately at the level of Kindle Paperwhite and Tolino Shine in terms of technology : high resolution display, good LED lighting, smart and handy case.

Kobo aura H2O
The aura H2O is water proof and can withstand a water unharmed.
Kobo aura H20 will cost 180 euros. He plays technically in the same league as the Tolino Vision 3HD and Kindle Voyage. Its most outstanding feature: The Aura H20 is the only reader with a larger display. 6.8 inches diagonal sound towards the reader usual 6 inches is not exceptional, but make reading quite a difference: The panel has the size of a normal paperback, while other readers are slightly smaller. Thanks to the angled on the back to the sides plastic housing of the Reader is still just as handy as the smaller Reader. The H2O is also waterproof. (

looking for the” book 2.0 “, the conventional texts with multimedia extensions linked to Amazon has come up with an interesting new format. eBooks from the division “Kindle in Motion” can be on dedicated readers browse, play all their strength but only on smartphones and tablets from. Readers of the first hour are excited.
Enhanced eBooks have a short and highly convoluted history. In the book industry, they were by 2010, the year of publication of the first iPad, as the next big thing. Because large investments in complex multimedia projects such as Rowohlt Digital Paper Plus series but faced only marginal revenues, Enhanced eBooks have become an exception (and successful title a true rarity).
In the industry has faith prevailed, books on smartphones and tablets would have to be completely rethought. One example is Oolipo, in the read-streaming app of Lübbe should be told about the Whatsapp messages-style short stories. All the more deserves more attention, what Amazon has come up with “Kindle in Motion”. The online retailer introduced the new format without any notice, first noticed it was by members of the authoring Forum Kboards
animations, videos, backgrounds -. On switching
background of KIM-title
So far, there are only 6 Kindle in Motion titles, all from Amazon itself postponed (and correspondingly also designed) were. Even when visiting one of the article sides it comes to eye-opening experience: The cover is a video, the background of articles adapted. Both elements, videos and thematic backgrounds, can also be found in the “Kindle in Motion” eBook again. There are also matching animations that “support the story” according to Amazon.
The enrichments are displayed only on request and only on compatible devices, ie tablets and smartphones. Unlike “conventional” Enhanced eBooks, the title can also browse normally on an ebook reader. Then there is of course only the text.
The eBook costs with and without animation matter. Amazon stressed “Kindle in Motion” there was “no extra cost” to the reader. This is only half the truth – the production costs and, consequently, the economically reasonable selling price is higher, E-Ink reader subsidize it were enriched reading experience of LCD readers
Outstandingly positive reader echo
the Fachblog the Digital Reader has looked at some of the 200 to 400 Mbyte heavy Kindle in motion titles and is done. Especially the custom backgrounds would enrich the reading experience clearly. They are implemented technically clean and adapted themselves to a variety of text and screen sizes.
Also, the echo of buyers of Kindle-in-motion title is outstanding positive. The animations are described mostly as “great bonus”. Some readers already wished, each book would “Kindle in Motion”.
High marketing value for Kindle platform
“movie in the book”
Amazon is the positive feedback register very accurately. If the enthusiasm is reflected in the number of downloads, the experiment will be extended with safety on other Amazon Publishing titles.
As often happens with Amazon should not direct funding are paramount. With several KIM launch titles professional actors were hired for the video enhancements, these costs is to recoup solely through additional sales because of these enhancements (!) Again unrealistic. Another unique feature of the Kindle platform “Kindle in Motion” can also have a tremendous marketing value.
In indie circles will now, of course, discussed whether a tool to enrich the own title is in sight. If, then would it be a very standardized modular system. The technical effort to make about bats flying through a page, but is enormous.

Kindle: differences
the new Kindle comes in the basic version without lighting, but with a low price. Choosing the Paperwhite, then you get an integrated lighting, higher resolution (167 versus 300 ppi) and a little more weight (161 versus 205 grams). The Kindle Voyage also offers an intelligent front light and a lighter weight (180 grams). The two basic models you save by choosing the “Special” again 10 euros, however, retained on the lock screen advertising Amazon – but do not worry, this does not appear while reading
A smartphone or tablet can now almost everything that people need. At least if one is exposed to direct sunlight. And even if the smart devices have significantly in recent years in terms of energy efficiency -. Power users are generally not fail to hang their equipment at least once per day to the power outlet
This is exactly also the reason why many people have not only tablet and smartphone, but also an e-book reader in your pocket. Their matt E-Ink display remains readable even in direct sunlight and is an ideal companion for the beach holiday or the lake. Even better: These things consume little energy. pass With many e-reader enthusiasts between charges weeks. Try the yet again with an iPhone. With the new Kindle Oasis Amazon will put the bar at the e-book readers goes a little higher. Whether that works, we’ll tell you the detailed test
One more thing first:. The Kindle Oasis is anything but a bargain. Nearly 290 euros will cost the base variant. Our test model also had the optional 3G connection on board, what drives the (retail) price to just 350 euros. For that amount you would get for example, an iPad Mini 2 with 32GB of storage. At first glance, it is therefore probably hard to convince the customers, instead of a multi-functional tablets prefer to buy an e-book reader that has only one function basically.

Kindle Oasis in test: Better than Paperwhite
The first thing you will notice longtime Kindle users at Oasis, is its size. With dimensions of 143 mm x 122 mm x 3.4 mm and weighing 133 grams, the Oasis – much like Amazon promises – the date thinnest and lightest Kindle. Like its predecessor, something weightier Voyage and Paperwhite has to offer a six-inch display with 300 PPI and the Kindle Oasis. If the backlight of the Oasis, no difference to any current Paperwhite model must first be noted. This changes fundamentally when one switches on the backlight: Ten LED lamps provide uniform backlighting and leave the Paperwhite, with its somewhat puny LED Quartet look pretty old
This does not mean that there is a. torment would read on the Paperwhite: the display of the latest Amazon e-book reader is simply better. but the low weight and the sublime backlight come at a price: The Kindle battery Oasis shows in the test – compared to the energy donors of the predecessor – a significantly poorer stamina. With the same energy with which a Paperwhite by keeping potentially for months, the Oasis eReader average runs about two weeks – depending on usage
The supplied, leather battery cover is docked magnetically. Photo: Séamus Bellamy
to give a little more battery power to the Oasis, Amazon has also housed a battery into the (included) Leather charging sleeve. The protective cover provides the internal battery with a new juice once it is docked magnetically. According to Amazon, the newest Kindle eBook readers need thanks to its battery duo only eight weeks into the wall outlet. This only works if you read every day not more than 30 minutes and always keep the backlight on the back burner. In the test, we used the Kindle Oasis a few hours per day. After a month he had already been at the outlet
The body of the Kindle Oasis is – due to the Andockmäglichkeit for charging cover – asymmetrically shaped. Where the cover is mounted, the housing is slightly thicker, because here is also located the internal battery of the Amazon e-book reader. If you’re wondering why you prefer to integrate with Amazon a housing collar, than to put on a uniform, flat surface: Simply because you can. And because the Oasis thanks said bead is quite excellent to use with just one hand. The ergonomics is also thought: If you hold the Oasis with one hand, your thumb rests naturally on the wide side of the display. Here, then, would be the perfect place for the keys flip – and precisely because they are also
In terms of ergonomics there on Kindle Oasis nothing wrong. Photo: Séamus Bellamy
All of these points make the Amazon Kindle Oasis to a lightweight e-reader, which is easy to operate with one hand. Thanks to an integrated accelerometer of Oasis is actually suitable for both right and left handed: Turn that thing I just – done. The function of the keys for turning is also reversed in this case. Oh yes: If you find mechanical keys repulsive, you can use the Oasis also easy to operate via touch

Paperwhite successor Oasis: The disadvantages
Where there is light, there is shadow: Of course, also has the latest Amazon eReader some things “in itself”, which we can not goutieren. Thus, the operating system displays compared to the Kindle previous generations absolutely unchanged. With internal memory and RAM, there are only marginal improvements: The former is now 4 GB, the latter has been doubled from 512 MB to 1 GB. In the test of the Kindle Oasis but still no significant improvement in performance was observed
Test Conclusion: buy Kindle Oasis – Yes or no
If you still have only the very best piece of hardware.? want and the price plays no role, then you are with the Kindle Oasis more than happy. The Oasis is a great, comfortable and well thought eBook readers and Amazon has one of the world’s largest e-libraries. The Kindle Oasis is according to Amazon in Germany from August 18 available.
If the price but plays a role, you should prefer to see the previous Kindle Paperwhite. The has similar capabilities to Oasis, but is significantly less expensive.
