  • Amazon has revealed its 2024 Kindle family, which notably excludes a refreshed Kindle Oasis model.
  • The company has officially confirmed that it won’t restock the Oasis variant once it sells out.
  • Since the Oasis was the last model with physical buttons, Kindle customers are now limited to touch input.

Yesterday, Amazon revealed its latest eReaders, featuring the first color Kindle and more. Notably, though, the company didn’t introduce a refreshed version of the Kindle Oasis, and it has now confirmed that it is discontinuing it altogether.

In a statement to The Verge, Amazon’s Devon Corvasce revealed: “Once current inventory of Kindle Oasis sells out online and in stores, we will not restock the device. Today, all of our devices are touch-forward which is what our customers are comfortable with.”
