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, COMPUTER BILD has tested.
Amazon’s new tablet Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 currently costs around 379 euros (as of end of November 2013)
.
Slim and lightweight design
Prima: The mere 7.8 millimeters thick and 374 grams heavy fire (“fire”) is processed perfectly, look very sophisticated and can be operated comfortably. This applies only to actions on the touch screen. The 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, takes practice.
image quality on iPad-level
The 8.9-inch touch screen (22.6 cm) is a splendor: it displays images and movies with 2560×1600 pixels crisp and 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 both horizontally and vertically sufficient with 75 degree, the strong reflections but annoying.
Flott thanks to quad-core CPU
In the test of Fire HDX worked very fast with all applications – no program forced the Amazon tablet to its knees. No wonder: the core is the generic class processor Snapdragon by Qualcomm 800. The four cores clocked at a maximum of 2.15 gigahertz.
No access to Google Play
The major downside: there’s only programs in the Amazon App Store, the choice is therefore limited. Apps from Google Play, the Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 nor relate like all other Kindle Tablets.
facilities incomplete, but long battery life
Pity: A card slot for memory expansion is also missing as an HDMI port for picture playback on a TV. Good for: The battery lasted the test 15 hours and 39 minutes. Hook: Until the battery was full again, passed 13 hours and 31 minutes
Conclusion:. Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 8.9
At the hardware there is nothing to complain about: 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 purchase and not on fun.
