Which Kindle do you have?
A couple of years ago I finally upgraded to an Oasis and the Oasis battery life is significantly worse than my previous Paperwhite. It’s still good enough — I have to charge every two weeks — but the Paperwhite was better.
The Oasis is still my favorite Kindle (it’s my third).
- artimaeis 3y agoI've got an Oasis 3rd gen (2019). My last Kindle before that was the 3rd gen "Kindle Keyboard" (2010). I'd say the Oasis has a longer-living battery than the old one, but I've always been pretty aggressive about turning off its radios and 'smart' features. I love the Oasis, I'd like it if they made a slightly larger variant with USB-C. Basically the form of the Scribe, but I'd rather skip the pen input.
- technothrasher 3y agoI'm still holding on to my 2015 Kindle Voyage. I don't like any other model I've tried, and they stopped selling these Voyages many years ago now. So I have to deal with the old battery. But it still lasts for a week or so, I just have to charge it on weekends. When it was new it would go for about six weeks. I know you can buy Chinese replacement batteries for it, but I worry about the quality control of those, so until the battery goes completely dead I'll stick with it. Then I might try an aftermarket battery out of desperation.
