The editors didn't like
No offline Lovefilm videos
Slow browser
Rivals have better specs
We said in our iPad mini review just how much we liked the thin bezels on it
And that they were a breath of fresh air in tablet design. The Amazon Kindle Fire HD is unfortunately the opposite. They’re massive. It looks more like a digital photo frame than a tablet with its enormous plastic frame that makes the screen seem tiny - the fact that it’s as wide as an iPad mini still makes it all the m
Sluggish performance for some tasks
Unintuitive interface
Battery drains quickly
Adverts are annoying
Unremarkable design and build
Still some gaps in the Appshop in relation to Play Store / No Google software
Interface is excessively uniform / no customisation
Rear photovideo camera is average
Some features are hit-and-miss
Not as customizable as other Android tablets
No GPS functionality
Online stores are sluggish
Lack of core tablet functionality
Poor app store
Because the range of apps is curated
It's very small. Video looks good but you can't zoom in on widescreeners
So big black bars dominate the screen
Less apps and games to enjoy
Makes internet shopping too easy
Its chunky body won't be for everyone
Fire OS 4 is as restrictive as ever for those looking for more customisation and control
The screen has a slight yellowish tinge
8GB version only has 4.5GB of usable storage
No microSD card slot
Confusing UI
Laggy performance
Have to opt into Amazon services fully to get the most out of it
No Google Play
Limited apps
Browser not up to scratch
Very limited storage
No SD Card slot
Poor cameras
Slightly cheap feel
Prescriptive UI
No GPS
Rigidly locked to the Amazon ecosystem
Other tablets have more apps
Somewhat sluggish at times
Silk browser still needs work. No quick app switching. No default camera app. Email
Calendar and contacts feel like afterthoughts the emphasis here is clearly on consuming content

In the end, we can still recommend the Kindle Fire HD, as the slate has a lot going for it. If you want an easy-to-use media consumption tablet, the Fire HD will certainly keep you entertained. The excellent 7in display and potentially boosted Wi-Fi perf...

Silk browser still needs work. No quick app switching. No default camera app. Email, calendar and contacts feel like afterthoughts the emphasis here is clearly on consuming content, playing games and reading books, not advanced productivity.
Clearly satisfied with the success of last year's initial launch, it seems Amazon is now intent on building up the Kindle Fire HD to make it the most compelling and feature-rich tablet you can buy for £159. Purists will still prefer something like the ...
The Amazon Fire 7 is a perfectly decent media consumption device in tablet form — ideal for videos, books, and games. It might not be the best tablet out there, but it's fun, easy to use, and cheap...

Abstract: CHECK THE PART 1 OF THIS ARTICLEIn the first part of our best cheap tablets we took a look at the Nexus 7. Even though there are a lot of great tablets for this budget, none seemed to be on par with the Nexus 7, until now. Enter the Tesco Hudl 2! For a...
Abstract: For this review, we're doing something that we've done a few times in the past: a tag team review. Both Cameron and Ryan have Fire HD tablets – Cam the HD 6 and Ryan the HD 7 – and are going to share their thoughts on each device. The hardware sections wi...
The Amazon Kindle Fire HD 7 is faster than last year's model and starts at an affordable $140 (£120). Amazon's Sangria OS is user-friendly and new features make the tablet easily shareable for families
Its plastic redesign feels cheap and it lacks the Mayday instant customer service feature. Free space on the 8GB models runs out quickly and there's no expandable memory option. The Amazon app store is less extensive than the Google Play store
For an inexpensive tablet, the Fire HD 7 satisfies with a practical, family-friendly operating system, but those interested in a 7-inch tablet can find models with better build quality in the same price range....
There’s a lot to like about the Kindle Fire HDX. The screen is superb, the form-factor sober but sturdy, and the processor cutting edge for the market. Amazon’s $229 starting price (with subsidizing Special Offers on the lockscreen, 16GB of storage, a...
