I have never owned an iPad, though I have used them. I have also used various other tablets, such as the Samsung Galaxy and Google Nexus. I have owed the Toshiba Thrive 10.1” tablet. I must say, for the money, Kindle Fire HD 7” (without special offers) is the hands-down winner for my specific purposes.
I am not a gamer, so I cannot comment on the comparison there. My needs for a tablet device, are, and the review reflects usage, as follows: reading while traveling; easy access of email (my yahoo, Hotmail, gmail personal and my business godaddy accounts) which are all loaded and synched and ready to go; listening to my favorite few hundred songs; to watch the occasional movie; to be able to view my own photos and videos whenever I wish; accessing my facebook and twitter accounts; surfing the web when not in front of my Mac or my laptop.
Yes, I know it may be limited, but those are my parameters. I originally thought my Thrive would replace my laptop but it did not. I believe that I will always have a laptop for various things I need to do. The Thrive was, in essence, my learning curve on exactly what I wanted, and needed, in a smaller portable device to use mainly while traveling. I carry my Kindle and my 15.6” laptop (with all cords, chargers and a variety of other items) in my Wenger 16-Inch Legacy Checkpoint-Friendly Computer Case.
The Kindle Fire HD has fantastic WiFi capabilities; never an issue. Near a hotspot? Connect. Easy as that. I have not yet had it lose a connection. The device has fantastic optics; brilliant colors that are alive and pop. It is a pleasure to show my photos to others on the Fire HD. I did match it directly against the iPad, Thrive and Galaxy and the visual is better than the competition. Dolby Digital Plus definitely delivers the goods. The sound is great. And when you plug in a good (not cheap) headset be prepared to fill yourself full of high quality sonic. Word docs, pdfs, and spreadsheets have all been viewed successfully.
When I got the Thrive one of the reasons is that I thought a 10 inch screen would be better to read books when I travel. And, in many ways, it is. But I am more than satisfied with the Fire HD 7" screen when I read. It is easy on the eyes and the form factor is also more comfortable when reading.
I am getting pretty close to the advertised 11 hours of operational battery time, which is excellent. That means when flying coast to coast I am able to use my Kindle while sitting in the terminal, during the flight, sitting again during a layover, and then the continuation flight, without having to worry about running out of juice (and/or searching the airport terminal for the sometimes elusive outlet).
As the Amazon Kindle PowerFast (for Accelerated Charging) was on sale when I got my Fire HD, I purchased it. I am glad I did. At first I was a bit disappointed that it was not included with the device, but, at this price-point, it makes business sense that it is not. Amazon has delivered an outstanding device. Yes, it is all tied to their content, but that also makes the Fire HD very attractive due to all of that content.
All in all, the Kindle Fire HD exceeds all of my expectations and I highly recommend it to anyone with the caveat that I have not used it with any games.
I was just sitting here thinking why not write a review on my kindle. Personally I love it. I received it for Christmas. I personally love it due to being able to do everything I want to do just as on my laptop, I think the only thing you cant do is play the actual games on Facebook directly from the website. "{Like farmville, you can only play the express mode} That is the only thing that the iPod has over this item. This is a great size, not to big, not to small, perfect. I can also save files to my kindle from my college and access them from my app "officesuite". I have noticed that there is a camera but, you have to upload a camera app in order to use the camera. Also there is no option to reverse the camera, such as front view or back view. There is only a front view, not something to easy to use. IN other words, you can only use the tablet holding the screen towards the object and take pics, not from the back of the tablet. Excellent sound, but you cant upload wallpapers, there is no option to change a wallpaper, screensaver or anything. I am still searching to be able to change the fonts. Excellent picture, excellent video, and like I said the sound is great. Reading a book is just wonderful, you can dim the screen if needed. There are anti virus's you can upload to protect your kindle, a good one is "lookout". You will receive notifications just like a phone. You can upload skype, and textplus to keep in contact with friends, plus all social sites. You can shop, play games, read books, play music, and upload music, watch video's, read newspapers, magazines, surf the web, and go into websites just like your laptop would, upload photos, documents, and they will send cute little offers if you want to grab them up. Lock screen, password protected. There are also beautiful kindle covers, cute little pens, screencovers.
Its a great buy!!! I love how u can surf the Web, listen to music, Netflix, play games, watch movies, youtube, and even facebook. I even like how u can download a free app to talk and text. You can do it with no charge. Its very comfortable to lay down on the couch and use it. If u have earbuds its nice to use it in the bedroom when my husband is asleep. I don't have to worry about the tv being on and keeping him up. Everything downloads fast and lots of cool free apps. You can usually preview books before u buy them. I give it 10/10!!!
I received my Kindle as a Christmas present and asked my generous Santa for the larger 8.9 inch screen model. Been using it about a month now, mainly to access the internet for email, web searches etc. Battery life is somewhat better than my smartphone when doing comparable functions, but I haven't used other tablets to be able to offer an opinion about that. My only negative so far is that it does not come with a satisfactory app for taking photos and videos. There is a very minimal app for taking photos, but no cropping or other editing features; and no video app. I would have expected something better for the price paid.
Overall I'm quite satisfied with my Kindle, very glad I got the larger screen version. I'll be searching for a good photo/video app.
i bought the kindle to take to work on midnights we dont have the internet. at home i download what i want and have it for work like books and games, it doesnt work for other things.at home i have it all . ilove it . it is light weight easy to take everywhere and much cheaper than a good laptop .i only shop on line ebay email and facebook so it is all i need .
