10 points the disappointing of Amazon Kindle Fire

Fire Kindle tablet is held at No. 2 on the market, the iPad. However, the "killer" 199 USD has received many complaints from users.

1. Position power off button on / off screen

Analyst Steve Kovach of BusinessInsider device complained: "Finally, I had to turn back the Kindle Fire to avoid touching the screen off when the button is used."

2. No external volume buttons

If you hope to use the Kindle Fire as a music device, you will be disappointed. Fire has no buttons to increase - or decrease the volume on the camera body.
This means that users will have to click on / off screen, slide to unlock, touch area for quick access in the upper right corner of the screen to the music application, users can then adjust the volume.
You must take four steps to complete a simple task can be performed on any other device in just a second. It's inconvenient and time consuming!

3. Not oriented to the user manual

Fire on the interface of Kindle has a menu shows the last used directory. However, it is not quite what users need or want. The mass media always grow faster than what you are looking for.

4. 8 GB is not enough for your storage needs

One of the functions of the Kindle Fire is forward (stream) multimedia files with other devices such as computers, TV ... So, the tablet should have a place to temporarily store images, music and movies.
However, Amazon is limited storage capacity of 8 GB Kindle Fire in the (real, usable capacity is about 6.54 GB). 8 GB is not even enough for an iPod Touch with video features.

5. Email application is not convenient

Many users often use tablet computers to check email at least 1 time / day. But the Kindle Fire email application is disappointing.

Email application on the screen Kindle Fire

One of the many reasons why users complain about email applications and the Fire of Kindle can not save directly to the device email address. This is due to limitations of the Contacts application (Contact). This application can not sync with any system, including a computer and Google Contacts.
To be able to save email address, the user must enter a contact from a vCard file (file containing directory can be exported from Gmail and many other applications) with a tricky operation.

6. Browse Silk disappointing

The Fire premiere Kindle, Amazon has introduced a new Silk web browser as a breakthrough for web page download speed almost immediately, the ability to predict the next link to the user, to reformat pages for smaller screens, and other features.
However, Silk did not really do anything out of it. The fact is, it's hardly as good as any other browser on the tablet running Android Honeycomb else. Users will see the image on the web is not sharp, shocked and zoom while surfing down.

7. Unusually hot

After 10-15 minutes, or watch movies and play games, Kindle Fire will heat up considerably and not only at an angle which is around the body. This is extraordinary for any electronic device.

8. Performance is not high

Sometimes the screen is not touch sensitive and the user can wait one second to perform Fire you need. Speed ​​switch between pages quickly with no screen Kindle e-ink - specialized equipment to read e-book, and the scrolling or browsing can not be compared with the first tablet.
Fire is a modern processor and adjusted Amazon Android operating system for your tablet. Therefore, they should be able to create better performance for the Fire.

9. Storage applications are not large

Amazon's Appstore is still far from perfect level. Many popular applications are missing, such as Facebook, Twitter or Gmail.

The applications on Amazon's Appstore

Worse, most of the Amazon in the Appstore applications optimized for the phone, but not for the tablet. That means you'll have to use the application version is designed for 4 inch screen on the screen 7 inch of Fire.

10. Unable to release a movie

The black bars above and below the movie screen has shrunk by 7-inch screen Kindle Fire. However, the user can not hit double to enlarge the screen when watching movies.
Of course, for under 200 USD, users can not require Fire Kindle quality comparable to high-end tablet. Moreover, the version currently on the market is the tablet "early" by Amazon. We will wait for a version more optimized Kindle Fire in the near future.
