Kindle Fire HDX Review

Kindle Fire HDX vs. iPad Air
Kindle Fire HDX 8.9" is lighter than Air—literally. In fact, the new Kindle Fire HDX 8.9" tablet is 
a full 20% lighter than iPad Air. The Kindle Fire HDX display also has nearly one million more 
pixels than iPad Air, giving it a best-in-class pixel density of 339 ppi (vs. 264 ppi on the new iPad). 
"...the HDX 8.9 is light. Absurdly light. Dumb light. It makes the already featherweight 
one-pound iPad Air feel like it's made out of lead by comparison." — Gizmodo 



The reviews are in: higher resolution, lighter weight, on-device tech support with the new "Mayday" button, 
Dolby Audio, and more—all for $120 less than iPad Air.
