The luxury Kindle Oasis get discounted for the first time by £50

It's the Amazon Prime Day deal we never thought would happen. Amazon has finally reduced the Kindle Oasis, the best ereader on the planet right now, by a massive £50.

This latest iteration of the deluxe Kindle Oasis is usually incredibly expensive at £229.99, but today's limited time offer at £179.99 has us reevaluating things. Like how much we really need to eat. Can we really justify spending that much on an ereader even with the discount? Yes. Yes we can.

The Oasis is the first waterproof Kindle and features a larger screen than the other models while keeping the build super light. The buttons on the side make page turning much easier for both left and right-handed readers and the flush screen against the bezel keeps out pesky strands of dust and hair too. The 'bump' on the rear also makes the Kindle Oasis much easier to hold than the cheaper Kindles. It really is the most refined Kindle yet and a luxury device for regular ebookworms.

I've even written on several occasions just how good the Oasis is and how Amazon probably wouldn't reduce it for Prime Day (the Oasis line has never been on offer before), but my bluff has well and truly been called with this Kindle deal. And as a current Paperwhite reader, who fondles the Oasis for that little bit too long at any Amazon event, I may have to bite on this one.

If you've never owned a Kindle before, in all honesty, we'd start with the much cheaper Kindle Paperwhite, which is also on sale today at an all-time low of £74.99 (usually £109.99).
