Amazon introduces the second generation of its premium Kindle Oasis e-book reader. By adding features to the successful first generation, Amazon has made Oasis better than ever.

The device's thickness is 3.4mm at the narrowest point, and 8.3mm at the location of the battery. The total weight of the device is 194 grams. The Oasis second generation features a larger 7" display with a resolution of 300 DPI.
