If you’re someone who reads every night before bed and doesn’t mind a few scuffs, this refurbished 2019 Kindle Oasis deal might be worth a look. It’s going for $129.99 on Woot (for the next 30 days or until it sells out), which is a steal for the 32GB model—especially considering a refurbished 8GB model is going for $119.99 on Amazon (and brand-new ones usually push past $250). Just a heads-up, since this is a scratch and dent unit, it’s not going to look fresh out of the box (expect light scuffs and small dings). That said, it’s been tested and certified to work fine, and Woot throws in a 90-day Amazon warranty just in case. Additionally, this version is ad-supported, meaning you’ll see sponsored content on the lockscreen, but it won’t get in the way while you’re reading. Shipping’s free if you’ve got Prime, otherwise it’s $6, and it only ships within the lower 48 states.
What you’re getting, functionally, is still solid. The 7-inch, 300ppi display is crisp, sharp, and front-lit with 25 LEDs. It has an adjustable warm light setting, which makes late-night reading easier on the eyes. Unlike the cheaper Kindles, the Oasis still has those physical page-turn buttons on the side, which makes it easy to flip pages when you’re holding it one-handed. This model is also IPX8 waterproof rated , so you can dunk it in the tub or spill coffee on it without panicking. For what it’s worth, the screen is sharp and evenly lit—PCMag called it “the most luxurious Kindle ,” and they weren’t wrong—but this model doesn’t support USB-C, so you’re stuck with micro-USB. That might be a dealbreaker if you’ve fully phased out the old cables in your house. And it doesn’t have wireless charging either, if that’s a priority.
