This product is a product that has been enhanced inside, so the appearance is the conventional model "Kindle Fire HDX 8."9" is exactly the same.In the past Kindle and Fire series, there were cases where new products with the exterior were enhanced as they were, but the body color was different or the logo was renewed.Most of them were.In that respect, this product cannot be identified at all in its appearance.
In addition, the body design that is cut to the edge and feels thin when held in the hand is also based on the conventional model, and the speaker is on the back, so the sound is easy to come back and it is difficult to hear from the front.The characteristics of the face are the same.If a genuine cover is attached, it is possible to reflect the sound on the back to make it easier to hear from the front, but it is annoying because the weight increases.
In addition, there is no LED of the charging status display implemented by most of the other companies' tablets, or the memory card slot is not installed.
背面左上には音量調節キーのほか、上部にスピーカーを搭載。従来モデルとまったく同じ配置だ。余談ながら背面に指紋がつきやすいのも従来のまま背面右上。丸型の電源キー、スピーカーを搭載。ボタンは若干凹んでおり、正面からでも位置を把握しやすい背面。上部には背面カメラを備える。amazonロゴも含め、従来モデルとまったく同一のデザイン従来モデルと同じく断面がやや傾斜したボディであるため、USBケーブルを挿すとわずかに上を向く特徴もそのまま厚さ7.8mmの薄型ボディは健在。最近ではiPad Air 2などさらに薄いタブレットもあるが、本製品は本体が軽いことから、数値以上に薄く感じられる上が本製品、下が従来モデルのKindle Fire HDX 8.9。外観だけではまったく見分けがつかない背面。写真では若干色味が違って見えるが、素材感も含めてまったく同一だOn the other hand, in addition to the strengthening of CPU and GPU, Wi-Fi is newly IEEE 802..There are specifications such as corresponding to 11ac.Regarding 11ac, in addition to the "iPad Air 2" and "Nexus 9" released at the same time, "iPhone 6" and "iPhone 6 Plus" are also supported, rather than implemented according to needs.It would be better to regard it as one of the trends in the fall of 2014 to winter models.
OS is Android 4.Equipped with the company's own OS "Fire OS 4" based on 4.However, after a while after this product was released, the conventional model has been upgraded to Fire OS 4, so the conditions are the same for users only because it is installed at the time of shipment.。There is a difference of about 1GB of the user -use area between this product and the conventional model, but it is considered to be almost equal by upgrading to Fire OS 4.
Continue to compare with "Nexus 9" and "iPad Air 2" released at the same time.
