For anyone looking, there is also a bundle below with the clear and fabric case for only 1.99 more at 171.98. The case is normally 36.99 so it seems worthwhile even as a backup case
Unfortunately, while a kindle user since ~2010, I don't think 16gb or even 32gb is even adequate for my needs. If I'm going with color, I'd prefer something that can natively read cbr/cbz and not have to convert and swap things off and on. I have some cbr/cbz that are 100mb+ per volume, with many volumes in the series. Maybe I could deal with a jailbroken kindle and loading cbzs from a nas, a google drive or swapping conversions in and out on my amazon account or something, but I don't want to count on that.
The only color ereader that really intrigues me is the Boox Go Color 7 because it has access to the play store and a microsd slot, so I'd have a ton of flexibility in both local cbz readers and manga repo apps. Supports a pen too (though kinda rudimentary, not for drawing). Costs twice as much though...

I liked having the physical page turn buttons, but this has it where you can double tap the back or side and the page changes. I have found it to, for me, be actually better. I have big hands and I often found it uncomfortable to keep my hands in the crab claw position when reading for long periods of time so I could hit the page turn button. The double tap on the back lets me keep my hands in a more natural position.
That may be an issue more specific to me/others with bigger hands, but for anyone in a similar situation thought I would mention it.
I still kind of wish it had physical buttons, but even with the oasis I wish the buttons had been at the bottom of the kindle and more towards the center, so they were never quite perfect for me anyway.
