Kindle Fire HD Tablet Review Part 2

Parental Controls

Protect your kids with easy-to-use Parental Controls. Simply add a password in the settings menu to restrict access to web browsing, content purchasing, or your Kindle Fire content libraries.

Built Tough

Kindle Fire HD is designed to stand up to accidental bumps and scrapes. Our state-of-the art display is 20 times stiffer and 30 times harder than plastic, so you can let your child play, without worry.

Books and Games for Kids

Explore books featuring beloved characters and a great selection of children's games including popular early development games.

Deep Facebook Integration

In addition to the free Facebook application found in the Amazon Appstore, Kindle Fire HD is fully integrated with Facebook, making it easy to connect and share with friends and family. Sync favourite photos at a touch or share quotes and passages straight from your book.

All Your Personal Email

The email app on Kindle Fire HD makes sending mail, viewing attachments, and syncing contacts simple. With full support for the world's most popular email providers - including AOL, Exchange, Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo! and more - it's Amazon's easiest-to-use email ever.

Take and Share Photos

The front-facing HD camera on the Kindle Fire HD can be used to take pictures using any of the camera applications available in the Amazon Appstore such as Camera Fun Pro, PicSay Pro and PicShop Lite. In addition, you can use the Facebook application to take and share photos with your friends.

Enjoy and Share

Relive your most memorable moments in stunning HD. The new, beautifully designed photo app makes it easy to swipe through albums, or step in to full-screen viewing. And sharing your photos couldn't be easier - enjoy slide shows on your TV via HDMI, or tap on individual images to email them to anyone you like.

Import and Edit

Kindle Fire HD makes it easy to keep favourite photos close at hand. Download any album from Facebook or upload saved photos from your PC or Mac. Editing is just as simple, with many popular and fun photo editing apps available in the Amazon Appstore, such as PicShop Lite and Picasso Draw! Paint! Doodle!.

Easy to Read

There are multiple ways to enjoy your favourite web content. With a single touch, the user interface disappears to allow for full screen reading. Or you can turn on Reading View to enjoy a clean, easy-to-read version of the site that removes all unnecessary images and other website clutter.

Trends and Recommendations

Looking for the latest news or the next big site? Trending Now alerts you to pages that have recently seen an unusually high level of traffic, which is generally a good indicator that the page or topic may be particularly noteworthy right now.

Connect to Your Corporate Email

Read email and attachments, manage calendars, and sync contacts on the go. Kindle Fire HD features full support for Microsoft Exchange-based accounts making it easy to stay connected when you step away from the office.

Carry and Read Your Documents

Your weekend travel plans, the latest office report - keep your essential information close at hand and backed up on the cloud with Kindle Fire documents. Send spreadsheets, PDFs, Word docs and more direct to your device or upload them from your PC or Mac.

Perfect Design, Perfect Fit

Engineered to perfectly fit your device, the fusion of premium textured leather exterior with a subtle woven nylon interior provides our lightest and thinnest form of protection. The integrated magnetic clasp ensures your cover will remain securely closed while in a backpack, purse or briefcase.

Auto Wake and Sleep

The case automatically wakes your Kindle Fire HD upon opening and puts your device to sleep when closed making it easy to dive right back into your content.
