Amazon didn’t forget the Kindle Fire tablets either. The old Kindle fire gets a hardware upgrade – a new faster processor, double the RAM and longer battery life. With the new parts the Kindle Fire is now 40% faster. It costs $159 and will hit the shelves on September 14.
Amazon also announced Kindle Fire HD. It’s a powerful tablet with an 7.0 or 8.9-inch 1920×1200 IPS display. It’s based on the TI OMAP4470 chipset with a 1.5GHz dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor and PowerVR SXG544 graphics plus a separate dedicated 2D graphics core.
The display on the Kindle Fire HD offers 25% less glare and full spectrum color at all angles.
More info about the screen
Kindle Fire HD also comes with stereo speakers plus exclusive Dolby Digital Plus audio engine for excellent audio output. There is dual-band (two antennas) Wi-Fi on board as well. The internal memory is 16GB.
Some of the new features
The new features already introduced within the Kindle Paperwhite for the ebook reader will be here too. But here will be even more – like the X-Ray for movies (IMDB-powered). You can touch on some of the actors while watching a movie and see their names and bios.
More features
You can now sync game saves with the Whispersync so you can continue playing where you left off regardless of the device. A few new apps will come in help too – Facebook, Skype (video-chats will be possible thanks to the front-facing HD camera) and updated email client.
The 7-inch Kindle Fire HD will launch on September 14 for $199, while the 8.9-inch model will become available on September 20 for $299.
