Apple iPad Air vs. Kindle Fire HDX

First, Bezos has shown his intuitive thinking in the decision of unveiling Amazon Kindle, a new device that is completely outside Apple’s catalog though Amazon still sold Apple’s iPod. Furthermore, he introduced to Medias his product, it seemed like a declaration to Apple. Because Apple is a giant of technological industry, so the situation would be complex to be its competitor. However, it was the only way to make a technological evolution by Kindle. As a result, this situation required Bezos to have a quick and broad evaluation for making the decision.

Have you ever thought about the differences and similarities in iPad and Surface? Here’s why you should. They are the two best in what they do, but they are very different in many ways and also very similar in many ways. I have a Surface, and also I have used an iPad many times. I love both of them. Your decision depends on what you want to use it for. For example, Surface is good for college and office work because it has Windows 8 and also has Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint, Microsoft Excel, and other programs. IPad is good for kids and people who like to take photos, listen to music, and do lots of fun activities with it. They both are nice, and you can keep them next to you, and they are nice and small but not too small. This essay will compare and contrast Microsoft Surface Pro 3 and IPad Air.

Amazon has created a value product that resolves around services over the device itself, known as the Kindle Fire.

The point of view Mackellar uses is important as it demonstrates her love for the Australian representation.

While some people definitely have way more experience reading on a Kindle Fire HD than their phone and vice versa it is still important to compare these two devices. The Kindle Fire HD has a larger choice of books and more ways to read them. For example they have the lending library which allows one to borrow books for a certain fee yearly. Having the ability to borrow books rather than paying for them when a person has no idea how good the book will be is important. With the phone it can make someone feel like their reading library is limited. The library is well developed, but since it is a phone first and foremost it falls behind the Kindle Fire HD. The Kindle Fire HD is based on a device that only let people use it for reading, therefore one can tell almost immediately that is one of the main purposes of the device. The Kindle Fire HD is sold as a reading device with other capabilities, such as watching movies and playing games. The Samsung Galaxy S3 is advertised as a phone that has the ability to let one read. The only part where the Samsung Galaxy S3 would win is with price; because the books do seem to be cheaper on their then they do on the Kindle Fire

The original iPad was revolutionary, but it lacks a lot compared to newer versions. It does not include cameras and the other features you would now expect in a device. Apple released the New iPad (3) in early 2012. The 3 had some very minimal upgrades over the iPad 2. Within six months Apple released the iPad (4) with Retina display. This version had significant upgrades including display quality, processor speed, and HD cameras. It is expected a newer version (5) will be released in fall 2013 with a thinner profile and updated cameras. These features are not significant enough to change, and I would skip this release and wait for the release of the iPad 6.

Prior to the Kindle’s release, Amazon convinced publishers to digitize their offerings for its new e-reader. They succeeded in convincing all of the “Big Six” publishers to rapidly accelerate their e-book development and to offer their content through the Amazon e-bookstore. Also, people already had subscriptions to Amazon Prime and were very loyal to make their purchases through Amazon. Plus Amazon’s apps work on all devices while the same is not true for other e-readers and tablets.

It is difficult for Barnes & Noble to compete with Amazon based on the current performance of the company. Amazon started an online print book retailer and gradually moved into the e-book industry ahead of other competitors. Furthermore, Amazon has a well-established distribution channel far more expansive and functional than Barnes & Noble. From the consumer perspective, younger generations prefer reading e-books rather than print books due to the portability, size, and low price. Although there is an increased initial cost, e-books are less expensive than print books. If Barnes & Noble wants to increase its efforts in the e-book industry and compete with giants like Amazon, the company has to invest a large amount of money to transform from

The weakness of amazon is that it hasn 't mastered mobile. In terms of speed companies like Google overpower them as their Amazon Fire phone is too slow compared to Google Nexus 6P. Amazon hasn’t done much to make its mobile experience different from its desktop experience. It basically just put its website into an app on the phone. Meanwhile other companies are trying to make a more complex but easy way to use and operate the phone.

To attain a competitive advantage over Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble needs to develop a proper strategy and implement a successful marketing plan.

The Amazon Kindle is an e-book reader which you can download readable and audible content into. The most innovative idea of Bezos about the Kindle was the use of the “E Ink” technology to reduce battery consumption and to provide a more legible display. The Amazon Kindle’s successors were the tablets Kindle Fire and Kindle Fire HD. Amazon priced the Kindle Fire with just $199 as a strategy to boost its revenue from content sales. Amazon’s latest example of diversification includes the launch of the Amazon Fire TV in order to compete with Apple TV and Chromecast. Bezos also entered the highly competitive smartphone industry by releasing the Fire Phone in 2014. An economic advantage diversification provides is economies of scope. Economies of scope refer to a reduction in unit cost based on the idea that the total cost of producing two different goods or services together is less than the total cost of producing them separately. Amazon makes use of the distribution side of economies of scope by shipping a wide range of goods together rather than separately. This gives Amazon the chance to negotiate more lucrative deals with freight companies. Geographic
