Which is better: The iPad vs. The Kindle Fire



Title Trick: The Question- You need to try and ask a question that people will want to know the answer to. Another trick within this trick is to ask a question you don't even have the answer to. If they think you can give them an answer to "Why Do Men Infuriate Women?" they will click. They can't help themselves. Really your post is a very amusing anecdote of what happened on your date last night, but you created a good hook in your title.










The iPad
vs. Kindle Fire





Alright there are pluses and minus to each device and I wanted to be able to compare them side by side. Hopefully you will learn something from my research.

Size:
iPad- 9.7 inches
Kindle Fire- 7 inches

Memory:
iPad- 64 GB
Kindle Fire- 8 GB (but unlimited "Cloud" memory online)

Price:
iPad- $499-$829
Kindle Fire- $199

Camera:
iPad2- yes
Kindle Fire- no (no facetime, no skype)

Microphone:
iPad- yes
Kindle Fire- no (no voice memo, no wi-fi phone)

Network capabilities:
iPad- if you want to pay more ($600+) you can take the internet with you
Kindle Fire- wi-fi only

Battery Life:
iPad- 10 hrs
Kindle Fire- 8 hrs

Weight and Size:
iPad- 1.33 lbs, 9.5" x 7.3" (Better screen size for watching media)
Kindle Fire- 14.6 oz, 7.5" x 4.7" (easier to carry around with you)

GPS:
iPad- on 3G models
Kindle Fire- no

Apps:
iPad: 90,000ish
Kindle Fire: 16,000ish


I think in the end it depends on what you are planning to do with the device. Are you planning to use it keep in touch with people? Avoid the Kindle Fire. Are you planning on reading books on it? Save yourself 300 bones and get a Kindle Fire. If all you really see yourself doing is reading books then get one of the cheaper Kindles LINK

What are your thoughts on this?

You want this. You know you do.


Title Trick: The Command. Tell them to follow you, tell them to not miss this, tell them you can't afford not to have this information. I believe the appeal of the command is that it smacks of confidence. I am SURE that you want this. "If you are so sure, then maybe you're right..."

Alright, I know that not everybody is excited about this as I am but SQEEEE!
I have been waiting to get one of these for a while. I kept holding out for a better price and my patience ACTUALLY paid off (in a very literal sense.)

I super wanted a iPad with the Kindle app but I could never justify the cost. Though the Kindle Fire isn't exactly like the iPad it can do quite a bit for a fraction of the price (the precise fraction being 2/5)

Follow me into tomorrows post for another Title Trick and a comparison between the Kindle Fire and the Apple iPad
