| |
| − | | |
| − | The Amazon Kindle Fire HD definitely matches the Nexus 7 with regards to price tag and raw hardware, and it comfortably trumps the iPad mini on price tag and screen resolution.
| |
| − | | |
| − | But, as we've come to realise, Apple's dominance within the tablet market place has been constructed on strong design, coupled with a peerless content ecosystem plus a super-slick UI.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The Amazon Kindle Fire HD may well be affordable, but in the end it will still want to embrace all three of these important elements if it really is to succeed.
| |
| − | | |
| − | In the event you nevertheless consider of Amazon Kindles as those small monochrome vacation companions, then you need to know that the Amazon Kindle Fire HD can be a absolutely distinct beast.
| |

| − | In lieu of focusing on the very certain job of downloading and reading [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-book electronic books], this is an all-purpose tablet that acts as a window onto Amazon's wider multimedia globe - films, music, apps and games are all included within the Kindle Fire HD's remit.
| |
| − | | |
| − | With that in thoughts, the Amazon Kindle Fire HD is actually a substantially simpler, purer design than the original Kindle.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The emphasis here is around the screen 1st and foremost, with the only hardware controls coming in the shape of some weedy and difficult-to-locate volume and energy buttons on prime from the device, proper alongside its 3.5mm headphone jack.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The lack of a fixed household essential adds to that minimalistic vibe (we'll go over the effect that has on usability later). The only detail on the front from the device is really a 1.3-megapixel camera for video calls - there's no rear-mounted camera here.
| |

| − | Despite that impossibly low cost price point, the Amazon Kindle Fire HD doesn't feel like a inexpensive device. It's solid within the hand, with none of the creak you come across in quite a few spending budget Android tablets.
| |
| − | | |
| − | There's a good contrast in between the Amazon Kindle Fire HD's smooth, glass front and its grippy matte back. It's quietly pleasing from a tactile viewpoint, although it lacks the sheer machined precision and premium feel of Apple's tablets.

| − | One area in which Amazon would hope to gain a big benefit with all the Amazon Kindle Fire HD more than its rivals is with its show. As we've described, we're talking about a 7-incher right here, but it's the good quality of that screen that's causing Amazon to boast.

| − | The business claims that the display functions a polarising filter and anti-glare technology, which apparently boosts colour and contrast, at the same time as enhancing viewing angles.

| − | In spite of such claims - to not mention early constructive reports from the US - we've to admit to becoming slightly underwhelmed by our initial knowledge together with the Amazon Kindle Fire HD show. It seems distinctly yellow to our eyes.

| − | | |
| − | Of course, it could just be that we've been conditioned by Apple's slightly cooler, bluer high-definition displays.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Certainly, after your eyes have grown accustomed to its warmer hue, you will no doubt commence to appreciate the Amazon Kindle Fire HD display's more naturalistic colour contrast - particularly when viewing video content. It is undoubtedly richer than the somewhat washed-out and dim Nexus 7 screen.

| − | That is only half the story with all the Kindle Fire HD show, too. The clue is in the name - that 7-inch display is sharp. It really is high-definition-sharp. In reality, with a resolution of 1280x800 as well as a pixel density of 216ppi, it is significantly sharper than the iPad mini equivalent.
