Did I mention how cheap the Fire HD 6 is? At roughly half the cost of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Nook
This is the reader-tablet crossover we've been waiting for. The Kindle Fire operating system is easy enough for a four-year-old to figure out
And the sea
Brilliant and sharp (albeit small) display
Superior speakers
Sturdy construction
Tight integration with Amazon ecosystem (a plus
At least
For the Amazon faithful)
Solid. build quality. Bright
Sharp screen. Good size for reading. Tons of Amazon streaming content.

The editors didn't like
Perhaps ironically
The simplicity of the Kindle Fire software does get to me. Living in Amazon's world becomes a little bit claustrophobic after a while. This is sort of a silly gripe
And it's certainly not specific to the Fire HD 6. Nevertheless
It's
Only 8GB of onboard storage
And not expandable
A bit slippery and sharp-edged
No HDMI out or MicroSD slot
Relatively low-res front and rear cameras
Weak battery life
Amazon Appstore selection
Very little internal storage
With no memory card slot. Sometimes laggy. Mediocre battery life. Lacks Mayday button for instant help
The plastic construction feels cheap and girthy. It lacks Amazon's Mayday instant customer-service feature as well as the Google Play store. The free space on the 8GB model fills up quickly
Lack of storage
Chunky
Niche tablet
Poor camera quality
Just 8GB of storage
Audio quality could be better
Strongly Tied to Amazon
Heavy for its Small Size
No microSD memory card slot
Very glossy screen
Monaural speaker
Small available storage space
Relatively thick and weighty
Slow hardware
Latency
Amazon Store pales against Play and Apple Stores
Very little customization options
No GPS
NFC
WWAN
Haptic feedback
Video-out
Heavy for its size
Cheap build quality
Limited built-in storage
No microSD slot
Some performance lags
Doesn't include Amazon's Mayday live support feature

Abstract: The other main drawback, of course, is that these Kindles running Amazon's Fire OS 4 — a custom version of Android based on version 4.4.2 of the latter. That means you don't get the Google Play Store, so your main avenue for getting apps and games is thro...

The Fire HD 6 is perfect for your kids, or as a device you use to take on your daily commute that you're happy to risk in your bag. You can read Kindle books on it, but the screen isn't really that great for that sort of thing. If reading is what you're a...

Compact size, Prime integration, Sharp screen, Reasonable price
A bit too chunky, Awful cameras, Fire OS can be restrictive, Tinny speaker
I've spent a good amount of time with the Amazon Fire HD 6 and it has already inserted itself into my regime. The mixture of durability, small footprint and access to Amazon's Prime service combine to make a device that's great for watching movies on the...
