Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 or Kindle Fire? - hissingrat229 - 02-19-2013 02:58 PM
Ok so I got a bit of Christmas money, and a tablet was too much for my mum to get me for Christmas.
So i'm selling unwanted items to earn extra cash to buy a tablet.
I love the ipad and ipad mini but there abit out of my price range.
I want to spend about £100-£170 on a tablet, I might consider getting the 10inch version if I have extra cash left over. Any thoughts on this by the way? Would you pay extra £50-80 for a 3inch bigger screen?
Well the main question is Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 or Kindle Fire?
Both 7 inch Tablets, good brands
I like facebook, instagram, youtube, movies, apps, music
Which is best for this type of needs? Or is there another you would recommend
Also can you get instagram on either?
Thanks

Kindle Fire HD has pros like:
- Front facing HD camera (Vs VGA front facing camera)
- 1280*800 @ 216PPI HD display (Vs 1024*600 @170PPI non-HD screen)
- Xray for movies
- Dual wifi antenna for faster streaming and downloads (vs single antenna wifi)
- Digital dolby audio speakers (Vs normal stereo speakers)
- Amazon content and services
While Galaxy tab 2 has pros like:
- Rear camera
- Google play store (On Kindle Fire you can sideload apps from google play store)
- GPS (Only Kindle Fire HD 8.9 4G LTE version has GPS)
- microSd slot
- Latest OS
My recommendation would be Kindle Fire HD because of the better screen which is my main concern for watching movies and playing HD games.
