Amazon Fire HD 7 Review:Amazon wanted the Fire HD tablets to withstand a bashing and that means they are suitable for all members of a family
The Fire HD 7 is extremely similar to the Fire HD 6. The 6 and 7-inch models have the same processor, the same screen resolution, the same performance, and the same software.
The main difference with the Fire HD tablets this year, which come in 6- and 7-inch sizes, is that they are multi coloured and fun. The 6-inch version is especially cheap and cheerful, available from £79 and small enough to fit in a handbag or suit pocket. Amazon told us, in fact, that the new tablets broke the torsion testing machine, not the other way around, and that rigidity is purely intentional. Amazon wanted the Fire HD tablets to withstand a bashing so that they are suitable for all members of a family.
Also designed to satisfy family needs is the new profile mode, which allows you to create different profiles for each member of the family, thereby offering their own content on their own homescreen. If everyone wants to share the same applications, books or videos, the Family Library functionality enables just that.
All content can be shared across the entire family or just specific profile owners. But in the case of eBooks, for example, each member has their own bookmarks. Dad, therefore, can be reading the same book as mum but leave his bookmark in a different place. The Fire HD will recognise where each member has left off and flick to that page accordingly depending on profile.That's one of the features of Fire OS 4 that comes pre-installed and one that we saw working for real during a chance to go hands-on with the new tablets at Amazon's London headquarters.
Both models, the 6- and 7-inch, have screen resolutions of 1280 x 800, which might only equate to 252ppi and 216ppi respectively.
The Fire HD 7 costs $139 in its base model, which has 8GB of storage (only 5.07 GB available) and allows ads on the lock screen. Bumping it up to 16GB adds $20, and getting rid of the ads costs another $15. Add it all together and you're up to $174, which is no longer a super-low-cost 7-inch Android tablet. It's more expensive than the 16GB Asus Memo Pad, or than the LG G Pad 7.0 with an extra 8GB microSD card.
