From a visual and quality standpoint, the chassis is better made than the Kindle Fire HD and comparable to the new Nexus 7. Pushing down the center of the backside will not result in a depression unlike the Fire HD, whereas the glass front will show small warping when pressed. Fingerprints and dirt will still accumulate more quickly than usual due to the surface type and can be difficult to wipe clean. Additionally, the rubberized surface adds a subjective quality that makes the tablet feel less like a cheap design and more of a mainstream device. The plastic strip that bisects the backside of the Fire HD now makes up the top edge of the tablet and is overtly glossy that contrasts well with the matte rubber back and edges. Perhaps the most agreeable change that is hands down better than the previous generations is the design. Twisting of the tablet is again between that of the Fire and Fire HD – it’s possible and clearly visible, but not a cause for concern. Edges and corners don’t feel as thick, but they are still substantial with a slightly denser feel than the edges of the Nexus 7. The slants are now flatter with sharper edges for a more aggressive tone. The newest iteration is the best of both worlds – a more stylish look and an even thinner profile than the second generation with a build quality closer (though not perfectly) to that of the first generation. The second Fire introduced more slanted and rounded corners for eye candy and a thinner profile at the cost of build quality. The first Kindle Fire was built very tough, though it looked boxy with a boring design. It’s a definite improvement over last year’s Kindle Fire HD, but is it better than the new Nexus 7? A higher resolution 1920 x 1200 IPS display, Snapdragon 800 SoC and Adreno 330 graphics make up some of the more significant hardware improvements while the more streamlined Appstore makes it even easier to shop and buy all things Amazon.

Launched just this month, this third generation Fire from the online seller includes numerous hardware updates and software tweaks – much more so than the jump from the original Kindle Fire to the 2012 Kindle Fire HD. The Kindle Fire HDX 7 is Amazon’s latest tablet alongside the 8.9-inch HDX 8.9. Ever since then, quality tablets at reasonable prices from major manufacturers like Samsung, Lenovo and Google have been abundant with a healthy amount of options to choose from. These third-rate tablets were hardly recommendable and Apple’s expensive iPad was seen as the only alternative to the eyes of the general public.Īmazon took advantage of its massive economies of scale and changed the tablet landscape with the launch of its inexpensive 7-inch Kindle Fire series. Before the advent of the original Kindle Fire in 2011, it was almost impossible to find a $200 tablet that was not poorly-designed with a low resolution TN display made from a largely unknown manufacturer.
