Kindle Fire HD 8.9" 4G LTE vs. iPad

Don't you love getting more for less?
Kindle Fire HD 8.9" 4G LTE offers the best HD entertainment experience on any tablet, with over 22 million movies, TV shows, songs, magazines, books, audiobooks, and popular apps and games. When it comes to HD displays, great resolution is just the beginning. Kindle Fire HD also features an advanced polarizing filter to provide vivid colors and deeper, darker blacks at wide viewing angles, compared to iPad’s display, which can lose contrast. Additionally, Kindle Fire HD features an exclusive Dolby Audio system with dual stereo speakers for more crisp, balanced audio, compared to iPad's single speaker. Kindle Fire HD also offers fast Wi-Fi with dual band, dual antennas + MIMO. Kindle Fire HD 8.9" features the latest 4G LTE technology and with our exclusive $49.99 data plan, the total cost of ownership for the first year is almost $400 less than iPad.
