To me it feels about the weight of a small hardcover book. It is not bad to hold and read from, but you feel that weight if you carry it in a shirt pocket or pants pocket. I think the next iteration needs a weight reduction.
I like the stability of the little device, it seems less buggy than my 2013 Fire HD 7, which makes me hope that when the 2013 device gets its upgrade it will be more stable, fewer crashes.
Overall very pleased with the Fire HD6, seems the perfect size for reading a book, and text-to-speech works great also. That one speaker worried me, but it is loud enough.
