Amazon Working on Three New Tablets for Fall Release

Amazon got into the tablet game a few years ago and is now in the habit of offering three different versions that appeal to different segments of users. A new report has surfaced today that gives us a sense of what to expect from the refreshed line due out this fall. An updated 7-inch Kindle Fire will reportedly feature a 1200 x 800 resolution display. The current 7-inch Fire retails for $159 with a 1024 x 600 panel. The pixel upgrade will thereby improve screen resolution on par with the current Kindle Fire HD. The upcoming version of the Kindle Fire HD will actually jump to a 1920 x 1200 display. Finally, the 8.9-inch Kindle Fire will bump up to an impressive 2560 x 1600-pixel screen, besting the Retina display of Apple’s iPad. You can expect that all of these devices will be cheaper if you opt into the WIFI only with Special Offers. These are the lowest priced models available and they recoup costs by displaying advertisements on the home screen and lock screen. You can easily remove these with a one time payment of $25.00. The more popular models give you 4G access to allow you to read and buy content on the go. The most appealing tablet that Amazon is developing is the 8.9 inch edition. If graphics and resolution are your thing, about the best thing on the market running Android is the Nook HD+, which has 1920 x 1280. The new Fire HD 8.9 is going to have an amazing 2560 x 1600, which will surely appeal to the gamers, video watchers, and magazine lovers. Currently, there is no word on pricing or the specific launch date. Amazon tends to submit items to the FCC via shell companies and makes the discovery of these items very hard to find.
