While the HDX has a better CPU, the Nexus isn't suffering with it's CPU. The tradeoffs for that additional bump in performance aren't worth it. Between the two, the Nexus 7.2 is easily the better tablet and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending it over the HDX 7.

Both the Nexus 7.2 and Kindle Fire HDX don't have HDMI output and microSD card slot, correct?
I do use HDMI on my Acer tablet to stream Amazon Instant Videos to the TV, so that's an important feature for me. Fire HDX's "Second Screen" does sound intriguing:

Fling TV shows and movies from your tablet to your big-screen TV using Second Screen. This turns your TV into the primary screen, freeing up your Kindle Fire to provide playback controls, a customized display for X-Ray, or simply be a place to email, browse the web, and more while you watch a movie.

...but it'll only work with Samsung TVs and PlayStation.
This is interesting too:

You can also wirelessly mirror movies, TV shows and photos from your tablets to your big-screen TV with Miracast-enabled accessories or TVs.

...but I don't want to buy yet another gadget.
I'd love to buy a tablet that has better screen resolution than the two I have, but I don't want to spend a fortune to get all the features I prefer, so I guess I'll continue to enjoy what I have...for now.
