Children and digital reading: The Kindle Fire goes before the iPad - CNETFrance

The Kindle Fire range would be used for digital playback by children as the iPad. Small feat that demonstrates inter alia that the position “reading” of some players is a good choice.

According to a report by “ PlayCollective and Digital Book World” on the digital habits of reading children between 2 and 13 years, the majority of children would use the Kindle Fire as a tool for digital reading with 27% of children surveyed, while the iPad is “that “20%. The figure is all the more interesting that it can be compared to another study dating 8 months ago and gave different figures, with 22% of children reading on iPad against 20% on Kindle Fire.

The digital book for children is also booming with children in high demand, as demonstrated by a recent report which noted that the number of young players has doubled since 2010 and other figures announcing an increase of 117% in sales in 2012 compared to 2011.

This is a very important market for content specialists that are players like Amazon, Kobo also comes from elsewhere to announce a dedicated younger shop with special accounts for children, which should be available in France in the coming weeks.

Amazon has managed to position itself as the No. 1 player at the moment on digital reading for children. I must say that the Kindle Fire tablets are accessible, simple to use , offering a robust parental control (see picture), not to mention the unlimited access to a catalog content on subscription cheap overseas which gives access to a lot of ebooks. The communication strategy for the tablet, whether visual or video ads has also clearly targeted families with children from the beginning. The new range of tablets and related services are expected to continue to capitalize on this niche.

This market is clearly the most promising for large digital players, children are of course the consumers of tomorrow. Nintendo also prepare as a catalog of ebooks for children, while a child class will make its appearance iOS 7 and there are some days, we learned that Samsung would soon launch a Galaxy Tab 3 Kids.

Its predecessor, the Kindle Fire tablet was also powered by a processor of the same brand, but it was clocked at 1.2 GHz and according to critics, the Kindle Fire is coming two times better than the previous generation.

Other specifications see no improvement in terms of RAM, which should be 1 GB of RAM. She will arrive with Android OS, Jelly Bean 4.2.2.

looking at the specs, it is clear that this is not a major upgrade for the Kindle Fire as one might do with the Kindle Fire HD should happen with the current best processor on the market, the Snapdragon 800. Therefore, BGR also notes that the price for the Kindle Fire is likely to remain unchanged at around 160 euros for the 8GB version of It’s a very good price for an Amazon tablet with Android 4.2.2 above.

Kindle Fire in the next MediaTek MT8135 processor? - LesMobiles.com

MediaTek The threat is growing. A strength of innovation, the depth would be able to capture the attention of the merchant and Amazon could equip the next Kindle Fire its quad-core chip MT8135.

Chinese foundry continues definitely attract attention, sometimes for its ads may be too noisy for some tastes, sometimes because they find favor in the eyes of others. The latter case may relate in particular to the Amazon merchant who would move it (a big) in order to equip the next Kindle Fire one of its chips, according to the publication Taiwanese Economic Daily News .

someone accustomed to dealing with unknown Chinese manufacturers, MediaTek is, however, already managed to convince some big names such as Sony, Acer and LG but only to equip their devices more affordable and insignificant. I must say that its main selling resided until recently in the very cheap price of its processors. This probably also explains the choice of the Amazon merchant who obviously did not opt ??for the power of the chip to eight cores of depth, but for some MT8135.

Caractéristiques of MediaTek MT8135

late last month that was announced this new processor based on a quad-core configuration big.LITLLE. It thus consists of two Cortex A15 CPU cores with a maximum frequency of 1.7 GHz and two Cortex A7 CPU cores with a maximum frequency of 1.2 GHz. Nothing new in either since Samsung has broken the hearts of his eight Exynos 5 Octa Similarly, while Nvidia already used a similar setup last year. A difference a loan. If some resource-intensive tasks will not call as less powerful of these four hearts for the sake of saving energy, the most demanding tasks can take advantage of all hearts simultaneously.

In addition, the chip also includes promising GPU PowerVR G6200 supposed to show 15% faster than the Mali T604 found for example on Google Nexus 10 and Samsung. In other words, it would be the best compromise between power / autonomy exists today, in addition to offering a quality probably unbeatable value.

Performance Comparison MT8135 with Samsung Exynos 5 and Dual Nvidia Tegra 3

MT8135 and allow Amazon to keep a relatively low price for its next tablet while offering decent performance, and probably better than its main competitors: the Nexus 7 (2013). MediaTek benefit from his side of visibility that could enable it eventually to form as strong as the most renowned Qualcomm, Nvidia and Samsung reputation. Both could therefore be winning this bet a little risky.

next Kindle Fire is expected before the end of the year, then that would contradict this latest rumor. Indeed, the production of SoC MT8135 begin this month only for marketing in early 2014 …
