  • The Fire HDX is generally very good at what it sets out to do. If your primary interest in a Kindle is in using apps, playing games, watching movies, and reading, this really is an excellent tablet for the money. You're getting incredible hardware - I ...

  • Slim, light, and sturdy, Bright, sharp screen, Very long battery life, Mayday 24/7 tech support is helpful, Well-done integration with Amazon ecosystem
  • Lock-screen ads cost extra to remove, No HDMI port or MicroSD card slot, Amazon Appstore is about a tenth the size of Google Play, Power and volume buttons poorly located
  • The 8.9-inch Fire HDX is easy to use and packs super hardware: It's light, with a very high-res screen and excellent battery life. Still, the tablet, like earlier Fires, will hold the most appeal for frequent Amazon customers. ...

  • Fast. Gorgeous screen. Very easy to use. 24hour, ondemand video tech support.
  • Lousy cameras. Not as many apps as standard Android tablets or iPads. Interface very focused on buying things from Amazon
  • The Kindle Fire HDX 8.9" is the simplest-to-use high-quality, large-screen tablet, with built-in, on-demand tech support. And it's the best choice for handling your Amazon content....

  • The Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 is undoubtedly the best tablet in Amazon’s range, and arguably the best tablet the company has released to-date. The design may be on the sober side of discrete, rather than the more premium-feeling metal of some rivals, but it...

  • Quality design, Lightweight, Smart, effective interface
  • Silly Origami camera mode, Smaller screen than you might like
  • In the race for consumer tablet dominance, the Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 is in near lock-step with the stellar iPad Air. Your choice may come down to ecosystem preference...

  • Great screen, Strong performance, Mayday tech support and other helpful software features
  • No Google Play access, $80 more expensive than its predecessor
  • The latest Fire tablet has some top-of-the-line specs and nice software enhancements, but Amazon's closed-off ecosystem will continue to be a sore spot for shoppers who prefer regular Android....

  • The Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 is a performance monster that speeds through Web sites and UI navigation at a frantic pace. Its screen is impressively sharp and its body amazingly light for a larger tablet. The Mayday feature gives personal and near-instan
  • The remote video viewing feature won't be ready at launch, and ad-free versions still cost an extra $15. The 16GB of space runs out quickly when storing HD movies, and there's no built-in storage expansion. Lack of Google Play access means many apps still
  • With everything that was great about the HDX 7 and more, the Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 isn't just a great value, it sets the standard for a media consumption tablet.

  • The display has bestinclass color and is even readable outdoors, Superlightweight and easy to hold with one hand, XRay, Mayday, and parental control features are valuable and unique to this device, Fire OS 3.0 keeps your focus on the content you want to e
  • No challenge to the iPad as a productivity device, Not that much less expensive than an iPad, Its superiority as a content device is contingent on buying most of your books, movies, and music through Amazon
  • Amazon makes the best content-oriented tablet better with a stunning display, new features that enhance movies and music, and a decent camera....

  • Abstract:  The tablet market doesn't look very different than it did a year ago from the perspective of who's doing well and who's not. Perhaps the most exciting developments came towards the end of 2012 and beginning of 2013 from the usual big guys: Google released...
