 |
Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 released in November 2013 is a 4G LTE enabled tablet with a 8.9-inch HDX display. This tablet has an amazing pixel density of 339 ppi, which translates into a resolution of 2560 x 1600 pixels. The display offers a perfect color accuracy and a great level of details. This model has a unique and modern design. Having a light body of just 374 grams (13.2 oz), the Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 is 34% lighter than its successor. Moreover, it includes a super-fast processor, the quad-core Snapdragon 800 operating at 2.2 GHz. The CPU is backed by 2 GB of RAM and Adreno 330 graphic adapter. The HDX 8.9 includes an 8 MP rear-facing camera which delivers high-quality images even in low light conditions due to its LED flash. At the front, there’s a shooter suitable for 720p Skype calls. One of the key elements of this model is its HDX display. The 8.9-inch screen delivers a very good dynamic range due to a unique feature that adjusts the color of each pixel based on information from outside. That makes the tablet usable even in extreme sunlight condition. The Amazon Kindle Fire HDX 8.9 comes in 16 / 32 or 64 GB of internal storage. |
