Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 8.9

The Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 will offer high image quality and many features. Where the problem lies and whether the purchase is worth, let us analyze. Amazon's new tablet Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 currently costs around 379 Euros as of end today. Who hears “Kindle”, usually thinks of a eBook reader - but now with the Kindle Fire models Amazon has offered complete tablet PCs since 2012 in the program.

And the new Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 is part of the recently announced third generation. It is a slim and lightweight design. The mere 7.8 millimeters thick and 374 grams heavy Fire is processed perfectly look very sophisticated and can be operated comfortably. This applies only to actions on the touch screen. The Fire is very responsive and accurate.

The control buttons has hidden on the back of Amazon. If you want to adjust the volume blind or send the Kindle to stand- by mode, it needs little practice. The 8.9-inch touch screen (22.6 cm) is a splendor; it displays images and movies with 2560x1600 pixels crisp and with rich colors.

The display also provided in the test with 502 candelas per square meter, a comparatively high brightness and good contrast (1543:1). The maximum viewing angle for both horizontal and vertical viewing is sufficient with 75 degree. Fire HDX worked very fast with all applications - no program forced the Amazon tablet to its knees. The core is the generic class processor Snapdragon by Qualcomm 800. The four cores clocked at a maximum of 2.15 gigahertz.

A card slot for memory expansion is also missing as an HDMI port for picture playback on a TV. The Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 tinkers well and is very well made and provides brilliant picture quality. Unfortunately, the operating system is trimmed to meet the budget and not on fun.
