Amazon kindle fire HDX 8.9in- I'm back!



Well after a looong break I'm back with a new review.

The Amazon kindle HDX is a really great tablet featuring nearly two inches of extra screen size(8.9), Amazon support and  8mp camera.

The lack of a google playstore  is quite limiting, you do however get the Amazon app store but is it really enough?

 The price of Amazon prime is going to be raised by $20 after March bringing the yearly cost up to $99 but that isn't that much of a stretch considering netflix can set you back $107.8 a year (because of the recent raise in subscription costs).  with an Amazon prime membership you get: rental of books from a huge selection, free tv shows and movies.
 You need to decide if spending $99 a year is worth it.

Durability is something to think about during the purchase of a new tablet and the HDX does not do well at all as seen in the above video.

 The Kindle has experienced vast changes.  Better screen, more accurate touches, button placement, size and weight.  Everything that's changed is an improvement.

 The extra $200 cost over the the HD7 ($150 less than the ipad air) might cause you to rethink this kindle as your next tab but that's up to you.
