The last in our video review series on the Amazon Kindle Fire is a comparison with other tablet hardware. We have a HTC Flyer, Galaxy Tab 10.1 and an iPad 2 on hand for the analysis. Overall, the Amazon Kindle Fire is a fantastic device for the price and hopefully will lead to reducing the gap between Android and iOS tablets. Our final score for this Amazon Kindle Fire?

Yes, it’s been said before, but it bears repeating: the Tablet is nearly identical to its predecessor. When we asked Barnes & Noble why it opted to go with the same form factor, a company rep told us it was because the Nook Color was such a successful device with an immediately recognizable design. In other words, the Nook Color wasn’t broken, so B&N didn’t fix it — besides, the company surely wanted to make the most of its Yves Behar investment. The only major changes to the body are a lighter color (a metallic silver to the Color’s dark gray), and a slightly more textured back, which should help when it comes to keeping the thing from slipping to the floor during a …
