They're still weird. And there are other odd quirks as well. The microUSB port where you'll plug in for charging is angled strangely
Software experience is limiting
Lacks rear camera
No Google means the company's communication services aren't there
The solid body is marred by the shiny plastic piece on the back and mushy buttons
If you're used to the stock Android experience
You might have trouble finding what you want

With a starting price of $230, the HDX is set up squarely against the Nexus 7, and on most fronts the HDX wins. So even if the Play Store and stock Android is of singular importance to you, take a second to reconsider:Like watching things on your tablet...

Amazon's Kindle Fire HDX 7 is a performance monster that speeds through Web sites and UI pages at a frantic pace. The screen is impressively sharp and the small light design is comfy for reading books. Mayday is personal and near-instant customer service
The remote video viewing feature isn't ready at launch and ad removal still costs an extra $15. 16GB is too small for 1080p movies and there's no built-in storage expansion. The screen is tarnished by a yellowish tint and the buttons on the back are somet
