Kindle DX vs iPad

When Petroleum Jelly was invented by Robert Chesebrough, he patented his idea under the brand Vaseline. Today, the term Petroleum Jelly has become obsolete and any reference to the greasy substance is made by using the brand rather than the name of stuff inside the small jars. Something very similar is happening in the world of media players due to the overwhelming market dominance of iPod. It wouldn't be far-fetched to see the cumbersome term ‘media player' replaced with the word ‘iPod' in the near future. It is only a matter of time before Apple kills the term ‘media player' and fills the void with a four letter brand name.

 

Apple is not satisfied with its dominance as a media player and the company has now introduced the iPad to compete in the e-book market as well. Amazon's Kindle and Sony's Nook are the other two e-book readers available on the market. The Kindle has done incredibly well since the release of the first model in 2007 and Amazon claims that over three million people are already reading bestsellers on its platform. The latest version of the Kindle provides a tweaked version of its predecessors and it would be worthwhile determining if it will manage to compete with iPad in the future, or if Apple will manage to kill the media player as well as the e-book reader. There is no better way to determine this than by having a faceoff between the two products in an attempt to predict their market longevity.

 

iPad VS Kindle DX

 

Size

 

The dimensions of the iPad are 9.56 x 7.47 x 0.5 inches whereas those of the Kindle are 10.4 x 7.2 x 0.38 inches. This makes the Kindle narrower, slimmer and longer than the iPad. The longer screen is akin to the average paperback novel and it thereby gives the reader an authentic reading experience. The slimness makes the Kindle 20% lighter than its competitor, meaning that it is easier to hold for long periods of time.

 

Verdict: The Kindle's design is still the most authentic and comfortable e-book reading experience available.

 

Screen

The LCD screen of the iPad is full color, whereas the E-ink of the Kindle only features sixteen shades of gray. This difference might seem huge, but how many modern novels have any color except black and white? The Kindle and the iPad are competing as e-book readers and in this department having a colorful screen is of no advantage.

 

Verdict: E-book readers have been developed for book-lovers and having a colorful screen does not automatically make it a better item. In this department the two products must settle for a tie, because centuries of texts published in black and white can't be wrong.

 

Additional features

 

The Kindle is a single-purpose device that only operates as an e-book reader. The iPad has been introduced with the benefit of a number of additional applications which can be activated through the App-Store. These applications, which include games, might seem useless to the avid reader, but some people need more than a reading device. The average buyer could easily be swayed by some of the additional features on offer, but the avid reader will remember that the Kindle is solely focused on bringing books to the public as efficiently as possible. The games could also be a deterrent to parents who want to further the education of their children, while avoiding all possibilities of procrastination.

 

Verdict: The iPad wins this category because the average person does not read extensively and will almost certainly want the device to have some alternative features. The gimmicky applications might sway some conservative parents, but most adults normally fold to the whims and fancies of their whining teenagers.

 

Storage Capacity

The iPad has a storage capacity of between 16 and 64GB. The Kindle DX only has a storage capacity of 4GB. The additional storage space on the iPad is attributable to the additional applications which the device might be required to run. 4GB of storage space would allow the reader to store over 3000 non-illustrated titles at any given moment. It is unlikely that most people could ever read that many books in a lifetime, let alone on a holiday in the Bahamas.

Verdict: Once again, the result is tied because the additional storage space of the iPad falls under criteria by which the Kindle cannot be measured. The Kindle does not require the extra storage space because games and random applications are not what the Kindle is focused on.

Price

The most important question to any buyer will always concern the price. You should expect to pay between $499 and $829 for the iPad whereas you could pick up a brand new Kindle DX for about $359. The iPad also requires an additional monthly fee of $15-30 to cover the cost of connectivity. When you buy the Kindle there is no small print or secret cost involved.

 

Verdict: The Kindle is cheaper and it is more suitable for a student with a tight budget. The iPad may have more features, but at the end of the day you pay a considerable amount for them.

 

Final Verdict: For now, the Kindle will be able to compete with the iPad on the international market because, as an e-book reader, it matches the Apple product in every department. The lower price would also give it a great edge when it comes to the student market because the cost of education normally means that funds are very limited. The lack of additional features might be something which popularizes the Kindle amongst concerned parents, because it eliminates the possibility of paying for a teenager to play games when studying should be the only concern.

 

Websites like www.kindleowners.com are also ensuring that Kindle owners get the most out of their products. There is a constant stream of information available on the internet which ensures that your Kindle does not become an obsolete white elephant while the iPad flourishes. If you love reading more than gimmicky applications or addictive games then the Kindle is still the best e-book reader available on the market. The iPad may eventually become more popular, but this doesn't make it the best product available.
