Kindle Fire HDX 7-inch: Third times a charm for Amazons iPad and Nexus killer
2013-10-02 23:01:03| Extremetech
The 7-inch Kindle Fire HDX is a surprisingly sexy tablet. For $230, the same price as the Nexus 7, the Fire HDX comes with the same beautiful screen (1920x1080), but a much faster SoC (Snapdragon 800 vs. Snapdragon 600) and significantly more battery life (about 11 hours vs. 9) -- and the HDX is smaller than the Nexus 7.
