You're going to love the 8.9 I saw one when grabbing some cables the other day at BB and it looked awesome! I wanted to take it home with me.  It uses White LEDs so there is no fringe. I still can't believe Amazon used Blue on the HDX I am confident next years will back to normal colors or they will figure out how to hide the light bleed.  Amazon does listen to it users at first they were saying the blue is normal and no replacements allowed. Now they say we'll replace it but can't promise the new one will be any better than the last. The techs I talk to last time were aware of the issue and no longer called it normal. One person reported a tech telling him they can just keep replacing it till he is happy. You got to love Kindle Support! No other store will do that. |
Just one technical correction, for other techno-nerds like myself who go crazy about these kinds of things: It's incorrect to say "It uses white LEDs so there is no fringe." Every expert in the field will tell you that all LCD tablets have light bleed....period. What would be correct to say is "It uses white LEDs so you won't notice the white fringe on white pages, although you may on black pages."
