Do not buy the electronic version of this.  There is no navigation at all so finding any topic takesforever.  The search feature is useless because it takes forever.  What a shame.

The screen is really sharp and nice to look at but I find the kindle fire much easier to use. On the new one when looking at my email if I look at something it won't let me go back. I have to start over. I was also told I would get extra $10.00 off since the kindle fire I ordered was not ready. I did not get it. Also not to sure about keeping it. I just have to try it awhile and see.

I am a true lover and user of the Kindle Fire Products. I actually like my new one, but it seems to be a little unresponsive to the touch. Especially when I am starting a web session. My internet is very quick so that is not the issue. After the internet session starts, then it is nice and quick then. Also, my 8.9 HDx seems to be a much higher quality of video, so I am glad I still have it.

I love that I can read it outside.  But not as easy to navigate .  The kindle Hd fire is better but for the fact , unable to read in sunlight or outside.

I am very pleased with the Kindle. I do not even have a smart phone and am technologically backward. But the Kindle Fire has been so easy to use and has lots of help that makes it even a fun item for me. I enjoy the access to the internet, to books and to games. That's as far as I've gotten, but it is very entertaining.

It's a great app. The layout of the articles is something I very much enjoy and I'm not surprised it seems so optimized for the fire tablet. I'm sure the Post's owner guaranteed that first thing.

Love my new Kindled!  I use the smaller version for travel and meetings. There are so many things to try, I can hardly wait.  Do you realize how much this challenges this old brain?

I enjoy my Kindle Fire 2nd generation.  It does more than what the first one did and there are more free apps and books.  There is always room for improvement but I really do enjoy my Kindle.

I love my new Kindle.  It is wonderful.  The only thing I'm disappointed in is all the typos and misspelled words in the books I have purchased.  You would think as much money as you paid for the kindle that the books would at least be proofed.  I'm talking four or five misspelled words per page and sometime you just have to use your imagination to figure out what the correct word is.  I just think they could do a much better job at accuracy for $9.99 per book.

I'm a first time user of any Tablet and I enjoy this Kindle Fire. Easy to use and understand. I have so much more to view. Love it.

the Kindle Fire moves too fast and is not stable at all.  It often moves away from what I am reading and doesnt tell me where I was up to.  It takes too long to find my place.  Also, the time from turning it on to the start of content is too long.  I do not like the kindle fire and prefer the older version.  The scrabble game in the kindle fire is also very unstable.  What can I do??

Great:
I was very happy with the order process.

The kindle device is very easy to read and use.  I love the electronic ink and the battery life.

The experimental text to speech feature is very useful and I hope will continue to be enhanced.

Tagging text and making notes is another great feature.

Not so Great:

The Australian device was shipped with only a USB charger which I understood before I purchased. However I am puzzled why this will only work with a computer USB rather than the USB power adaptor.

The point of purchasing a kindle was to get all those out of print books.  I have been very disappointed with the range available in the Kindle editions.  My 'hit rate' of books I want to read has been 1 in 20 so far.

If you allow children to play with the Kindle then you will find you have subscribed to Fortune magazine.  Perhaps a child lock on the wireless connectivity??

Conclusion:

Excellent device but kindle editions of good books need to be increased.

I have bought four Kindles as they were introduced. I have not had problems with  one , two, three or  the original Kindle Fire. The first new Kindle Fire 8.9 was a nightmare. It was defective and after having a lot of difficulty and attempted fixes via Kindle service it was replaced with a "new" HD 8.9 . I must say Amazon's Service department is superb. Great technicians, very patient and helpful. However I feel the replacement is a reconditioned Fire as it too has problems. So far nothing as bad as the last one, but certainly not as good as the less expensive original Kindle Fire  which, by the way cost less than half.
The problems are with some apps which do not appear correctly. Sometimes I can not change the direction of the screen. I have problems with pixelated movies from NETFLIX which I NEVER had with my original Kindle fire. I also have an IPAD and like my original Kindle fire better than that!
If this product worked as well as my original Fire. It would be a dream. The HD and Dolby sound are fabulous.

I absolutely love my Kindle Fire. But I greatly hate that my lock screen is ads due the that fact that I paid for the kindle not these ads I see every time I go to unlock my screen. Therefore I don't understand why I can't personalize it!!! This issue is very frustrating!

I had to adjust to the size from my Fire JD 8 but the look and reaction of the newer kindle fire I love. I don't like the ads every time I turn it on though.
