The trade-off, even for the money you save, doesn't feel worth it. While the Fire 7 looks better when the font is larger, you won't get nearly the battery life you'd get from a dedicated e-reader. We had fewer issues reading large-font books on the tablet's included Kindle app, but if that's your primary interest, you're better off saving your money and splurging for a Kindle Paperwhite. Text can appear fuzzy on the Fire 7's screen, especially when it's small, and it's something you'll start to notice a lot more than you'd want to. The tablet's lackluster 1024-by-600 resolution and crummy 171-pixels-per-inch density, virtually unchanged since its debut in 2011, gives it a more of a budget feeling than anything else. If you're big into desktop monitors, you might see "IPS" in the specifications for the tablet's display and think, "Oh, great images." And while the Fire 7 is fine for viewing photos and videos, especially given what you're paying for it, the same can't be said for reading text on the tablet.
