Abstract: Amazon's new Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 tablet may look the same on the outside as last year's model, but look under the hood and it's got a new engine, an overhauled Wi-Fi transmission system, some audio tweaks, and an updated operating system.That's right, the...
Extremely thin and light, Excellent display, Great battery life
No access to Google Play Store, Fire OS limited compared to Android, No expandable memory
Amazon's 8.9" Kindle Fire HDX boasts a stunningly thin and light design and has an excellent screen, but the lack of access to Google's Play Store means there's a heavy reliance on Amazon's limited apps...

Buying a tablet as a consumption device is meant to be a full-service experience. You're meant to have amazing hardware (check), access to great apps (check), great books and magazines (check), and a top collection of music, TV and video content (massive...
Mayday live assist, Great display, Good battery life, Excellent design
Heavy on Amazon services, Lack of Android apps, Poor camera, Browser doesn't support Flash
If you want a solid and powerful multimedia tablet that is essentially a gateway to all things Amazon, this is your tablet. But if you're looking for something with more flexibility and better hardware, you're better off buying an iPad Air. The only thin...

The Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 may be an expensive tablet to use exclusively as an e-reader, but it may be appropriate for those looking to augment a high-percentage e-reading use case with the occasional email, browsing session or bout of Temple Run. It's clear that the Kindle Fire series has not yet been optimized for Canadian audiences — most of Amazon's best cloud features are unavailable outside of the US, and many popular Android apps and games are missing from the App Store — but its superlative hardware and excellent performance more than makes up for it....
Abstract: Lisa Gade reviews the Kindle Fire HDX 8.9. This is Amazon's new 8.9″ tablet for fall 2013. It weighs just 13.2 ounces and has one of the best tablet displays on the market with full sRGB color coverage, excellent contrast and resolution. The Fire HDX 8.9 ...

Great for video and eBooks, not so much for gamesThe Kindle Fire HDX tablets don't compete fiercely enough in the price department, making them a tougher sell; other tablets can run circles around these Kindles for the same (or lower) price. Though the Ki...
Fantastic display, Slim and lightweight, Fluid navigation, Battery life
Fire OS is too closed as a system, and heavily focused on the Amazon Appstore, No microSD port (but several capacity sizes to choose from), A few apps missing from the Appstore compared with Play Store
The 2014 version of the Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 is a top-rate product. The display quality is irrefutable, as is the tablet's sheer power. All the same, Amazon will really come into its own when it manages to revamp Fire OS, which, at present, is too A...

Superb screen, So light to handle, Extremely snappy processing, Solid audio output, Great battery life
Too Amazon content heavy, Mediocre camera, No expandable storage
The more I've used the Amazon Fire HDX 8.9, the more I've grown to appreciate it. If you can get over the Amazon content heavy interface and work around its apparent limitations on the Android operating system, you'll be rewarded with high-grade performan...
Abstract: As with a lot of tablets it comes naked and to fully protect the screen you need a case and both Amazon and third parties sell such items, if you spend a lot of time typing then a keyboard might be useful addition to the unit I was sent both a case and a ...
