The editors didn't like

  • The Kindle Fire HDX's buttons are an improvement on the virtually invisible suckers from the Fire HD

  • Mayday video tech support works, Great screen, Snappy performance, Improved Fire OS, Feels more like a full Android tablet
  • Isn't as comfortable to hold as the Nexus 7, Funky button and port layout, App selection lags Google Play and iPad, No rear-facing camera, X-Ray for Music doesn't work with most songs
  • The Kindle Fire HDX's improvements are all welcome. It has much more powerful internals that result in smooth performance, and an updated OS that makes it feel more like a tablet and less like a cluttered storefront for Amazon's services. And the Mayday...

  • 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...

  • Superb spec and screen for the price, Great Amazon stores for movies, music, books, Mayday is unreal, priceless for tablet beginners
  • We want all of Google Play, please, Lovefilm is stream-only, Android is more customisable, iOS prettier
  • This is a real Nexus 7 alternative. As long as standing at the cutting edge of new apps isn't a big priority the HDX has you well and truly covered, from browsing to cloud storage to buying books, music and magazines. Bringing a new, pepped up Fire OS, zi...

  • Su precio de 229 euros en su versión más económico es una de las claves. Aunque no la única, su buena pantalla, y el rendimiento con videojuegos, películas y contenido multimedia, lo convierten en una de las mejores opciones para los que busquen un tablet con esa finalidad.
  • No se puede ampliar la memoria interna, por lo que habrá que optimizar el uso que hacemos de ella. Por otro lado, el servicio de películas no está disponible en España, y eso limita muchísimo el uso del Kindle Fire HDX en nuestro país en comparación con Estados Unidos, >

  • Sin lugar a dudas, lo que más destaca es la pantalla, de una calidad sobresaliente. Otros puntos positivos son un magnífico sonido (ayudado por una buena colocación de los altavoces) y un rendimiento excelente. Pero nada es perfecto. El mercado de aplicac...
