Obviously you never own a Kindle, when someone start comparing an iPad with a e-ink device (Kindle etc.) most likely they never experienced the joy of reading on and e-ink device. At that point, you probably not suppose to buy it anyway.
Next time, try it before you say it.

5-year Paperwhites are regularly sold for $60 or more. Go to eBay to check it out. With that in mind, I don't see any issue with Oasis being $20 more expensive. In fact, search for "kindle oasis 9th gen" on eBay and you know you have got a good deal here.

Comparing this with iPad is the worst analogy here. Kindle is not iPad. They don't get lots of new features in a new generation, the price is very stable, and they last for years. People are happy to spend money on a 5-year device and use it for a few more years. In fact, the latest Oasis was released in 2019, so this is only the "previous generation".

> even the new models aren't fast by any means

First, that is not true, Scribe is definitely faster than older models. Second, it does not matter. Virtually nobody gets a new kindle because it is "faster".

Yeah, gloves indoors. This is slickdeals bro, the less money you spend on necessities like heat and food, the more money you have for Kindles, flash drives, and portable battery packs.

At this point, I can heat my home with all the electronics I've bought from posts on slickdeals

I guess maybe check out the difference of 6" and 7" at a store but can anyone speak to the experience of that difference? On a small screen like this I imagine it can be significant...

If you have good or decent eyesight.... the 6in is better, more nimble, lighter and easier to carry. Closer to the size of a regular book. But this is also newer and theoretically a newer battery - thats all luck of the draw though anyways.

So let me get this straight… this is a 2017 model, and it's 2/3rds of the way through 2023. This is nearly seven years old and they want $80? I've got an iPad that's seven years old and you know what Apple quoted me for trade-in-value? $4.

I'm sure it will read books, but even the new models aren't fast by any means. I'd bite for maybe $40, but that's it.

Obviously they never own a Kindle. They probably would never spend money on it, since the only thing they can see is bigger screen and cheaper price. People need to experience the e-ink to know the difference of Kindle (e-ink devices).

Admittedly I jumped from a 6" Kobo Clara HD to an 8" Kobo Sage, but the extra real-estate is welcome. I mostly did the change for egonomic reasons--the design makes it more comfortable to hold for long stretches, and the physical pageturn buttons mean if I get into a comfortable position I'm not constantly reaching up to swipe the screen to get to the next page.

Winter's coming, and the ability to wear gloves in-doors while still being able to turn the pages without constantly fighting the device's touchscreen is reason enough to consider getting one.

I've never used a Kindle, so I have a question.
I have maybe 1,000 PDF manuals on PC, sorted in folders/subfolders by Manufacturer and Model, and wondering if this would work as a convenient "portable service manual binder". Thoughts?
