Amazon Fire HD 6 \u2013 Tablet Battery<\/a>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong>LifeThe\u00a0Fire HD 6 has a 3400mAh battery<\/strong>, a fact that Amazon itself doesn’t advertise. It’s a decent size, but a bit disappointing considering the tablet’s thickness and weight. For example, the 6-inch Huawei Ascend Mate 7 has a 4100mAh\u00a0<\/strong>Huawei Ascend Mate 7 battery, but is only 7.9mm thick and weighs 185g – thinner and lighter than the Fire HD 6 (of course, it costs four times as much). times).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

iFixit’s teardown of the Fire HD 6 reveals that the\u00a0Amazon Fire HD 6 battery<\/strong>\u00a0itself weighs 60 grams, suggesting it might be a bit of a lo-fi device. Still, this seems like a bit of an odd place to cut corners.In our looped video test, playing a 720p MP4 file at medium brightness, the Fire HD 6 lasted 10 hours and 25 minutes. This is a pretty good result.However, as you’d expect from a system architecture that uses two power cores and two efficiency cores, games drain thetablet’s battery<\/a><\/u><\/strong>\u00a0much faster. Based on our experience playing Real Racing 3, you’ll get around 3.5 to 4 hours of 3D gameplay .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amazon says the tablet will last about eight hours, which is obviously a pretty conservative estimate given the results of our video testing\u00a0Amazon Kindle<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0tablet battery<\/strong><\/u><\/a>\u00a0life is very good. This feature isn’t found in many tablets under \u00a3100.Amazon Fire HD 6: CameraAmazon has always been friendly to the masses, adding cameras to both the front and back of the Fire HD 6. However, there is little benefit to either.The rear camera is a very basic 2-megapixel model, while the front camera is a simple VGA camera. In a cheeky software move, the Fire HD 6 tries to trick you into believing it has an autofocus lens – it uses a touch-focused reticle. However, it’s really just a fixed-focus camera, and clicking to focus really just changes the exposure settings. It’s sneaky. We’re glad it exists, though, as it gives you great control over the metering of your shots and makes you feel like you have some control.Image quality is generally poor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Detail levels are poor, photos are very grainy, and the Fire HD 6 simply can’t handle strong light sources, or even too much reflected light at all. The photo shows a lot of purple fringing and a lot of shine. If you have a phone released in the past few years, it probably has a better camera than this one.There is an HDR mode, but it’s very slow and the results aren’t great.The front-facing camera has a very low resolution, but the software at least makes good use of it. It uses facial recognition and is very good at making images appear bright when dealing with indoor lighting. Is there anything else to consider?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Fire HD 6 is missing some features. In our opinion, the two most important features are mobile internet and GPS. This is a Wi-Fi-only tablet, and we don’t think Amazon will add a 3G\/4G version to the books. That’s no surprise when this is clearly a budget tablet designed for buyers on a budget, but there’s something worth noting.Even more disappointing for enthusiasts is the lack of GPS. You can’t use the Fire HD 6 as a live mapping tool, which is a shame because it’s semi-portable and would make a great vacation guide. Should I buy the Amazon Fire HD 6?The Amazon Fire HD 6 is a no-frills little tablet that’s easily the best tablet we’ve reviewed in its price range. The screen quality and\u00a0Amazon Fire HD 6 battery<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0life of the Amazon Fire HD 6 tablet are both good: two elements that are often lacking in ultra-budget tablets.As with any Fire OS tablet, you’ll want to make sure you’re willing to abide by its limitations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We think the price makes it worth the effort, but if not, consider something like the Asus ME176CX , which is now available for under \u00a3100, or the larger Tesco Hudl 2 .For now, though, the Fire HD 6 offers something very unusual with its 6-inch bezels. In fact, it’s pretty good. We’d love it if this thing wasn’t so heavy and thick and could take advantage of the smaller footprint .judgmentThe Amazon Fire HD 6 would be better if it were thinner and lighter, but otherwise offers a good tablet experience for not a lot of money. It’s perfect for buyers on a budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
