The Kindle Fire is deceased. The almost eight-month-old product, which still operates on Android 2.3 by the way, was just thoroughly outclassed by Look for Google. From these days on, Amazon’s $199 system will merely are available in our mixed memories; it’s a strategy and an example of how to perform and present price-friendly solutions, but nothing more. We’re now looking toward the long run. Fulfill the Nexus 7.
Google’s tab is everything we were expecting: Android 4.1 Android Jelly Bean 4.1, Tegra 3, NFC (Android Beam), 1GB RAM, front-facing electronic camera and up to 8 time of power supply, with 8GB and 16GB storage space alternatives. For something that comes in such a small program, this factor is a monster. The Kindle Fire’s cost now seems excessive as opposed to same $199 tag smacked on the Nexus 7, and I think it’s secure to say Amazon’s product providing has been absolutely recognized.
The cost of entrance alone is enough to force audience, but it’s what Look for Google is providing together with it that really creates it a champion. The organization highlighted the Nexus 7 was “built for Look for Google Play;” the ideal way to eat and process the over 600,000 applications and other available press (movies, guides, TV reveals, magazines). The Kindle Fire has its own providing, yes, but along with the Fire’s last-gen specifications, it may as well be a spider city (for now).
The primary root cause behind or against the Nexus 7′s achievements will be whether non-geeks can understand what it is all about. Amazon’s picture is already breathtaking in the community awareness, and one of the factors that the Fire handled to do really well was create Android unrecognizable. It divided itself as far away from Look for Google as possible. Google’s new system is operating Android, of course, but a edition that is more available than anything it has come out with before, placing the interest right returning on the search giant’s increasing environment.
Google’s new system is a specifications perform equine, one that can take a position toe to toe with some of today’s present best pills without missing a defeat — iPad, Transformer Pad Infinity, etc. But furthermore, it provides a front side row chair to one of the greatest electronic press shops on the earth. Not only that, but it does so at a cost — 8GB for $199 and 16GB for $249 — that undercuts the new iPad by more than 50 percent, and absolutely ruins the Fire.
Folks, meet your next Android product, and say farewell to the (current) Kindle Fire permanently.
