The Kindle Fire HD 7" offers rich colour and deep contrast from any angle. It features an advanced polarising filter and anti-glare technology to offer a stunning media experience. The 1280 x 800 HD LCD display will bring all your games, movies, apps and more to life.

Enjoy powerful sound with no distortion thanks to the Kindle Fire HD's Dolby audio. Dual-driver stereo speakers with auto-optimisation software offers incredibly crisp, clear and balanced sound.

Dolby Digital Plus features technology that adjusts volume, makes virtual surround sound and easier to understand dialogue when you're viewing films and TV shows. Dual-Driver Stereo Speakers on both sides of the display output a wide field of sound for deeper bass, louder movie soundtracks and distortion-free sound at higher volumes.

Ultra-fast Wi-Fi lets you stream all your HD content, so you won't get video buffering, slow downloads or dropped connections. Kindle Fire HD uses cutting edge dual antenna, dual band Wi-Fi for over 40% quicker speeds than the original Kindle Fire. It will automatically switch between the 2.4GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi frequencies, enabling you to use a less congested GHz band for greater range and less interference.

HD content demands more storage, powerful processing power and longer battery life. Kindle Fire HD is made specifically for HD movies and games, so you can enjoy ultra-fast performance with no compromise to battery life or storage. It uses a fast dual-core processor with an Imagination PowerVR graphics core to make even graphically intensive games run smoothly.

The high performance battery delivers over 11 hours of viewing videos, browsing the web, listening to music or reading. 8GB of storage and unlimited cloud storage for your Amazon content offers plenty of storage for your HD content.
