The NO.1 on my "hate-to-do" list is making choice, but we have to face all kinds of choices in the entire lifetime. Recently I meet this choice: Nexus 7 or Kindle Fire HD. As usual I go to search this phrase, I get tons of results tell you how to choose. After 2 hours scanning, I felt totally lost. Fortunately, two of my friends each has a Nexus 7 and Kindle Fire HD, so I asked them to lend their device to me for a hands-on. Here are the comparison, which are all my own firsthand experience. 1) Nexus 7 has a more powerful CPU For almost all digital devices, CPU is the brain, in another word, it is god damn important for your tablet. Nexus 7 uses a quad-core CPU, while Kindle Fire HD uses a dua-core CPU. In this aspect, Nexus 7 is double to Kindle Fire HD. 2) Nexus 7 has a open system Nexus 7 and Android are all adopting Android as the operating system, but Nexus 7 uses a pure native Android and Kindle Fire HD uses a customized one. What is the difference? For a native Android system, you can install any Android app on it and undertake the least risk of incompatibility; for Kindle Fire HD's customized Android, you'd better download and install apps from Amazon App Market. Obviously, Amazon App Market can't contains all the Android apps. But to be honest, for most important and popular apps, you can find them in Amazon App Market. For example, all these must-have apps suit Nexus 7 and Kindle Fire HD. Therefore, if you are not an app zealot who always seek those uncommon apps, any one of them is OK. 3) I can't customize the Kindle Fire HD Kindle Fire HD doesn't allow you to change the wallpaper, but only the lock screen paper. But is there anyone like look at the lock screen? And we even can't install any widget on Kindle Fire HD, that is a disaster. I can't know how the weather is going today, I can't check my schedule on the screen, I have to run the app to get any information I want, that is extremely inconvenient.
