My Kindle's on fire 15/05/2013

Advantages e-reader side of it works well, kindle store easy to navigate, stylish looking
Disadvantages only comes with USB, finger prints everywhere, screen glare, poor battery life, sharpness not good

I have to confess I was against the idea of e readers from the moment they were first introduced - I LOVE real books, the way they look, feel and even smell is all part of the reading experience which completely get taken away by reading on some sort of electronic device. I love real books so much I have three big bookcases full of the things and it's still not enough! How does any anti e-reader like me end up with a kindle of all things? Anyway I was browsing books (funnily enough) on amazon one day and noticed that there were some free kindle ones that looked interesting, but were on the ... more

Advantages Easy to use, Very good screen quality, Good battery life, Lovefilm connectivity works well
Disadvantages Heavy, Back of the Kindle feels like plastic, Issues charging the device

Introduction I've always wanted a kindle ever since the original Amazon Kindle's came out in 2007. I wanted something to help me read books and the Kindle looked like the device for me. I always like to have the coolest and latest devices. Upon my 21st birthday a family friend bought me one as a gift as she is wanting to get me to read a lot more books. She liked the idea of the Kindle Fire because it could do a lot of other things as well as using it as a e reader. About the Kindle Fire The Kindle fire is Amazon's first attempt at creating a tablet device. It's based on the Amazon kindle e ... more

Advantages More than just books
Disadvantages Difficult to press the buttons

My son had wanted a kindle fire for Christmas and after looking around I decided to order the Amazon one - it wasn't the best deal at the time, but it was the one place that would deliver (other places such as Tescos would let you order but then you had to call into the shop to collect it and I don't see the point of ordering online if you still have to go into the shop itself - time is an essence at Christmas time and I also hate the shops too near to Christmas as the are just far too busy). The first thing I noticed about the Kindle was the size - it was a bigger than I had thought it would ... more

My Kindle 16/03/2013

User recommends the product

Advantages access to thousands of books, internet, email, games, apps
Disadvantages keyboard, click to buy - easy to accidentally purchase books

A number of years ago if someone told me I would stop buying paper books and read everything electronically I would have laughed in their face. The thought of reading on a device would have sounded crazy, besides books were timeless and a big part of my life. That was until I was given a Kindle Fire HD as a gift for Christmas. At first I was dubious and technology isn't really a strong point of mine, but the more I used it, the more confident I became and the more I began to think I can't believe I hadn't brought one sooner. With access to thousands of books and delivered to the device ... more
