So if Amazon purposely chose to use a screen that causes vignetting over one that doesn't, it makes me wonder who made that design decision and why. I doubt the colors on the Fire HDX are that much better than the Nexus 7.2, at least not so much better that it was worth causing the vignetting. After all, the Fire HDX was designed for reading as one of its primary functions, and the included Kindle reading app displays this vignetting more than most apps would. It just seems to me like a really stupid design choice on the part of Amazon.

I agree this is one that will make them lose alot of sales. If I wasn't so into the Amazon system I would return it. I think the HD 2013 does not suffer from it but the ppi isn't as good as the HDX but it is much cheaper!
