Kindle Fire HD or Nexus 7? - Jazzy - 11-09-2012 09:14 AM

Which is better?

I'm 18 and want it mostly for apps like twitter, Facebook, YouTube and probably a few games and a little web browsing.


Thanks!

the kindle fire HD gives you more bang for the buck, and you can do everything you care about
it also gives you more bang for the buck, as the closes Nexus 7 is $50 more

Kindle Fire is excellent but it indeed restricts your downloading apps from android market out of its forked Android OS. I am suffering from it seriously at the moment. Many people even cannot find out how to install YouTube on Kindle Fire HD! That's a case.

On the contrary, Nexus offers an open android OS and you are free to download apps like twitter,Facebook, YouTube as you like, not to mention games.

Nexus 7 is exactly what you need.
Here is a brief comparison between both tablets, which might be useful to u more or less.

Kindle Fire HD is probably the best if all you want is Facbook, twitter and youtube... The app store has over 50k so I'd assume that you would find good amount of games for the app store.
