Retail value of the Kindle Fire does not cover their manufacturing costs …

The Amazon is the same in order to enter the market of tablets. The Kindle Fire, your device running Google Android, it costs$ 199 in the United States. The competitive value, however, is below the true cost that the company has to produce the Fire. With this, you are registering losses.

The iSuppli, which specializes in electronic components, set up a basic table with all the items needed to build one unit of the Amazon Kindle Fire. From the beginning, there was the preliminary estimate of each Kindle Fire cost US$ 209,63. By reviewing the table of costs, the iSuplli now discloses the amount of US$ 201,70 for a Fire to be ready.

With this, the Amazon would be taking a loss of almost 2 dollars to put your tablet with a competitive price.

The Kindle Fire is the cheaper of its category among the tablets produced by large companies. Created by Amazon, it competes directly with the Nook Tablet, Barnes & Noble, whose price is set at$ 249 in the United States.

Amazon takes advantage of buying on a large scale to cheapen the production of the Kindle Fire with time. In addition, the tablet with display of 7-inch bet on specifications much more into account: only 8 GB of storage space for content, and 512 MB of RAM memory.

Obviously, we have to remember that the strong point of Amazon is to sell multimedia products. The Kindle Fire is the gateway to the movie rental and sale of books that the company is in the tablet, and this is the strategy that the company intends to take to balance the damage with the tablet. At least in that first moment.

Kindle, Bulgarian or Kobo: Which one to buy? – My New Phone

The three E-Readers more popular in the brazilian market are the Kindle, the Bulgarian and the Kobo. The first is the representative of the Amazon, the second from the Hail, and the third of the Bookstore Culture.

E-Readers are devices that deliver a reading experience very similar to paper books. The screen simulates the view of the pages and ensures a comfortable reading without the eyes get tired. In addition, it is possible to store a variety of books that without the volume of a library: there are thousands of books in the palm of your hand.

But which of the three reading devices is the best to buy? See below for the analysis.

Price: Tie.

The three E-Readers keeps a similar price. The simpler versions of the Kindle, Kobo e Lev can be purchased for$ 299. Already the more advanced versions, arrive on average to the value of R$ 399 R$ 499. In base, the difference of the version more simple to more sophisticated is the lighting itself, which can be made to read even in a dark environment.

Touch: the 1st Kindle, the 2nd Bulgarian, 3rd Kobo.

The Kindle is the E-Reader that offers the best touch experience on the screen. It allows the user to make with accuracy the notes and griffon in the texts. The Bulgarian also has a good experience of touch screen. Already the Kobo leaves much to be desired in this regard, and in some instances, the user will feel difficulty in the accuracy of the touch.

Design: Tie

The three are lightweight and finished with comfortable to provide the reading. The Kobo account with 8mm thickness and is produces a feeling reasonably better "footprint". The Kindle has 10.2 mm thick and the Bulgarian 9mm. All weigh less than 200 grams.

Performance: 1st Kindle, Bulgarian and Kobo tied.

The difference is not significant, however, the processing of the commands is faster with the E-Reader Amazon. Is not a factor that should really be considerable to choose which brands to buy, the difference is very subtle.

Storage: 1st Bulgarian and Kobo, 2nd Kindle.

The main difference is that in the Bulgarian and in the Kobo device account with the input of the USB card. Thus, there is no restriction to the amount of data that can be stored. This is for the readers who intend to put on many comic books, and texts with pictures in the E-Reader. The devices come with a 4GB memory, enough space to store about two thousand books. There is no way to extend this space in the case of the Kindle.

Battery: Tie

Kindle, Bulgarian and Kobo have great autonomy. In comparison with laptops and smart phones, the impression is that E-Readers do not need to be loaded. The battery lasts for 1 month if the player use the device 2 hours per day.

Ease of access to books: Depends on the use.

For those that will use files downloaded from the internet, Kobo is the best option. This, therefore, it runs files in the format E-Pub. The Kindle requires conversion to E-Pub to Mobi when the aqruivos are downloaded from the internet. For PDF readers, the Bulgarian is that it has the best fitness read in this format. In terms of the acquis, the Kobo and the Bulgarian count with the best collection in Portuguese, however, the Kindle outperforms largely the two when it takes into consideration the collection of books in English.

Conclusion:

The Kindle has a reputation as the best E-Reader in Brazil, but, as seen in the analysis, depends on which use will be intended for the device. Comic book readers, and texts with many illustrations should opt for the Kobo or the Lion. If you read in Portuguese, the Kindle offers largest collection. On the other hand, if you are looking for books in Portuguese, Bulgarian and Kobo are the best. For readings in PDF, Lev. To download books from the internet, the Kobo. The Kindle also allows you to read books downloaded from the network, although it will require format conversion to E-Pub to Mobi.
