This is not an Android tablet, just in case you were mistaken. Storage 32Gb / 64Gb (microSD-expandable by up to 1TB)Ĭameras 2MP front-facing, 5MP rear-facing It worked well before, and it works even better now. The volume controls stay put and there’s now a dual mic system to pick up the Alexa wake word instead of just the one. The covered microSD slot remains on the bottom side corner, although now it can take a 1TB card (up from the previous maximum of 512GB).Įverything else is on the same short side of the frame but the 3.5mm audio-out, the USB-C charge port and the power switch have all swapped places. Amazon has gone for a landscape-first look and feel, shifting the front-facing camera to the centre of the long edge (something Apple should have done with its latest iPads). There are no new additions to the ports and buttons but there’s been a bit of a reshuffle.

Not only does that make it more manageable but the 16:10 screen now fits more evenly into the frame, with a uniform 15mm bezel running all the way around, winning points for neatness if nothing else.Īs for the choice of colour for the rim and plastic rear, that, once again, is unchanged: Denim, Lavender, Olive or Black. It's also 15mm shorter on its longest edge and 8mm thinner.
