Kindle Fire HD finally arrives in our country. Buyers of this tablet will probably start receiving copies of one of the most popular seven-inch devices today or tomorrow. In fact, in its first generation, it was the best-selling tablet (it sold about 5 million units) after the iPad. Amazon presented Kindle Fire HD in September of this year, leaving very good feelings and now announces it on its US page as the "best-selling" product.
The Amazon tablet is perhaps, next to Nexus 7 y iPad Mini, the seven-inch device with the greatest projection in our market. Kindle Fire HD It continues with the philosophy that the leading e-commerce store marked last year with its first generation: to offer the hardware at cost price and to recoup the investment by selling services. In fact, Amazon based his strategy on a series of special offers that are shown to Kindle Fire users on the unlock screen, although the device can also be purchased without this type of advertising by paying an extra 15 euros.
Apparently, this strategy continues to pay off, as Amazon calls Kindle Fire HD the product "best seller”From his store around the world, although this designation, as Slash Gear explains, It can have its trap and that is that in English best selling can have different meanings than merely literal, for example, it can mean that they sell as many copies as they produce or that they sell as much as they expected to sell. In any case, we would have to wait for a confirmation from the company that your statement is literal or wait for data from an organization such as IDC (International Data Corporation).
What does seem clear is that Amazon is still betting on its device and that Kindle Fire HDFor specifications and price, it is in a position to do battle with Nexus 7 and iPad Mini. The great weak point of the device, as we have already mentioned on some occasion, is an operating system excessively aimed at communicating with the Amazon store that takes little advantage of the enormous qualities of customization of Android 4.0, although yes, there is always the possibility to root the device to leave it to everyone's taste.
