Kindle Fire vs. Nook Tablet: Differences between Kindle Fire and Nook Tablet

Price

Kindle Fire $199 vs. Nook Tablet $249

Apps

The Nook Tablet and the Kindle Fire both have app stores, but Amazon’s tablet has a bigger selection.
Kindle Fire's gaming library, in particular, is much more diverse, with categories for RPGs, strategy games, shooters and more. Besides, the Amazon Appstore also offers more free apps, and gives away one paid app every day.
Nook Tablet focuses mostly on lighter fare.

Streaming Media

Netflix is integrated with the Nook Tablet, pushing recommendations to the user’s home screen, and Hulu Plus is pre-loaded, making Barnes & Noble’s tablet a strong streaming video device. For everyone else, the Nook Tablet’s video services have a better selection and wider availability on other devices, such as smartphones and game consoles.

Although the Kindle Fire has its own streaming video service through Amazon Prime, it’s only ideal for people who already subscribe to the $79-per-year service for something else, be it the limited book rental library or free two-day shipping.

Streaming music is a toss-up, with both tablets offering apps for Pandora, MOG and Rhapsody.

Reading

The Kindle Fire and the Nook Tablet hit all the same feature checkboxes for e-reading. Both devices offer millions of e-books, plus newspapers and magazines. But Nook Tablet offers 2.5 million current titles while Kindle Fire provides more than 1million books from Amazon's bookstore.

For parents, the Nook Tablet gets a slight edge for its “Read and Record” capability, which lets you record your own story narrations, but Amazon Prime members will prefer the Kindle Fire for its selection of free e-book rentals. Comic book fans will be divided; the Nook Tablet will have graphic novels from Marvel, while the Kindle Fire has a deal with DC.

Processor

Both the Kindle Fire and the Nook Tablet have a 1GHz dual-core Texas Instruments OMAP 4 processor, which should provide zippy performance and little to no lag.

Memory

The Kindle Fire is limited to 512MB of RAM, while the Nook Tablet has 1GB. While 1GB of RAM is nice, this category comes down to performance, as well.

Storage

The Kindle Fire is limited to 8GB of internal storage, two of which are used for the OS. That isn't a lot of room for all your books, apps, movies and whatever else you want to put on the tablet. The Nook Tablet has double the storage of the Kindle Fire with 16GB of storage plus a microSD slot for expandable memory, up to 32GB. It's got a lot more room for everything you want to do on a tablet.

Cloud Storage

Nook Tablet: Nook Cloud, unlimited.
Kindle Fire: Amazon Cloud, unlimited.

Battery

Nook Tablet: 11.5 hrs. reading/9 hrs. video
Kindle Fire: 8 hrs. reading/7.5 hrs. video

Appearance

Both devices are about the same size, but the Kindle Fire is a bit smaller and thinner (7.5 inches by 4.7 inches, 0.45 inches thin) than the Nook Tablet (8.1 inches by 5 inches, 0.48 inches thin.)

Screen

Each device has a 7-inch touchscreen. Resolutions differ only slightly on each device — 169ppi for the Fire and 170ppi for the Nook Tablet — so the viewing experience should be more or less the same.

System

Both are Android.

So, which one do you want to buy now?

PowerPoint to Nook Tablet: Show PowerPoint on Barnes & Noble's Nook Tablet with Embedded Audios and Videos, and User Setting Animations

Barnes & Noble's new nook tablet has arrived in stores and homes on Wednesday.

Design

The new nook tablet's design is very much like Nook Color. The nook tablet is to the Nook Color as the iPhone 4S is to the iPhone 4.

The Tablet has had a few improvements to its feel and some contours on the tablet--it's not a carbon copy of the Color, physically--but the carabiner is back, and so is the very appealing minimalist look. The edges and back have a slightly soft touch, not rubberized, but almost like Teflon coating on cookware. It feels nice.

Specifics

The nook tablet weighs less than a pound, has a battery that enables nine hours of video watching and comes with 16 gigabytes of memory and an SD slot to add more. It has a 7-inch, 1024x600-pixel color display, a 1-GHz dual-core processor, and are available in Wi-Fi only. It runs on Google Inc.’s Android system for mobile devices.

Feature

The strength of the nook tablet is the strength of Barnes & Noble, which is books. The giant bookseller offers some 2.5 million current titles. Beyond that the Tablet isn't so tied to one company's servers to function, and so works more like other tablets. If you expect to take your tablet to a lot of places where there is no Wi-Fi connection, the nook tablet likely will work better for you with its additional storage. That's also true if you are an avid reader and want the best selection of books to choose from, many priced at $9.99 or less.

PowerPoint to HTC Vivid: Show PowerPoint on HTC Vivid (AT&T) with Embedded Audios and Videos, and User Setting Animations

Both HTC Vivid and Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket are AT&T's first LTE smartphones. November 6 was shaping up to be a big day for AT&T, as the carrier released its first 4G LTE smartphones and expanded its LTE network to nine additional markets on that day.

Display

Camera

Other Specs

Though HTC Vivid support data processing, including Microsoft Office, it isn't able to show PowerPoint with audios, videos and animations users embedded or set. To make your presentation much funnier and impress others, the best way is converting PowerPoint to Video keeping all original multimedia and settings.

There are many PPT to Video tools. You can choose one which suits you.

Price

Price with two-year contract: $199.99.

Data plans start at $15 per month for the DataPlus plan, which gets you 200MB of data. You can get an additional 200MB of data for $15. For heavy data users, you can choose the DataPro plan, which offers 2GB of data for $25 per month, with the option to purchase another 1GB of data for $10.

Customers will be able to choose from the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket or the HTC Vivid, both of which are compatible with AT&T's HSPA+ and LTE networks and run Android Gingerbread.

Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket (AT&T) Shows PowerPoint Presentation

On November 6th, 2011, Samsung and AT&T announced Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket, which is one of the carrier's first supporting LTE smartphones, while the other one is HTC Vivid. In addition to the smartphones, November 6 will also be the day that AT&T's LTE network will light up in Boston, Washington D.C., Baltimore, and Athens, Ga.

The Galaxy S II Skyrocket will be priced at $249.99 with a two-year contract. AT&T’s got two data plans from which to choose: 200MB for $15 a month (an additional 200MB costs another $15), or 2GB for $25 a month, with a extra 1GB costing another $10. You can add 4GB of mobile hotspot data for an addition $45 a month.

Galaxy S II Skyrocket VS. Galaxy S II

The Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket uses the same amazing Super AMOLED Plus display that can be found on the Samsung Galaxy S II and adds another .2 inches of display real estate for a total of 4.5 inches.

Both phones also sport identical 800 x 480 resolutions. Fortunately, despite having bigger screen real estate, the Skyrocket has only slightly bigger dimensions than the original Galaxy S II.

The Skyrocket measures 5.15” x 2.75” x 0.37″ and weighs 4.66oz, while the S II measures 4.96” x 2.60” x .35” and weighs 4.3 ounces. That means that the Skyrocket is a little bit thicker, wider, taller and heavier than the S II, but like the S II, it still feels lightweight for a device with such a big display. Fortunately, the extra screen real estate means that the onscreen keyboard feels more spacious.
The most important difference: Galaxy S II Skyrocket supports 4G LTE service.

Besides, Skyrocket owns 1.5GHz dual-core processor; 8-megapixel camera; 1080p video capture; 2-megapixel front-facing camera; 16GB built-in storage; capacitive touchscreen; LTE/HSPA+/UMTS/GSM/GPRS/EDGE; 1GB RAM; Bluetooth 3.0; WiFi "N"; Near-Field Communications (NFC); 1850mAh battery and Android 2.3.5.

Between all of these improvements, that basically makes the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket for AT&T the most powerful Samsung Galaxy S II model from all of the world’s carriers.

Though Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket support data processing, including Microsoft Office, it isn't able to show PowerPoint with audios, videos and animations users embedded or set. To make your presentation much funnier and impress others, the best way is converting PowerPoint to Video keeping all original multimedia and settings. There are many PPT to Video tools. You can choose one which suits you.
