Some non-essential items may be missing from the box. The unit may not be shipped in retail packaging. That is the reason for the reduced sale price and the reduced warranty.
We're listing these as "Amazon Certified Refurbished". These units have been returned, inspected, and restored to fully working condition by an Amazon technician.
Startlingly light
The capacitive touch layer is integrated directly into the glass display. The innovative magnesium unibody is molded from a single piece of die-cast, machined magnesium (the same materials used in high-performance race cars), and a blend of glass and nylon. The result is a durable and portable tablet that weighs only 13.2 ounces.
Small bezel, clean lines
Fire HDX 8.9 is engineered for increased usability, and features a design with a small bezel, clean lines, and optimized button and charger port placements. Fire HDX 8.9 is designed to disappear in your hands, so you can get lost in your viewing experience.
Ultrafast quad-core processor
Fire HDX 8.9 features a fast quad-core 2.5 GHz Snapdragon 805 processor—delivering quick app launches and smooth multi-tasking.
4x faster Wi-Fi
Equipped with 802.11ac Wi-Fi, speeds can reach up to 600Mbps which is up to 4x faster than the previous generation Fire HDX 8.9. With MIMO (Multiple Input and Multiple Output) and 802.11ac you can seamlessly multi-task high-bandwidth activities like streaming music on wireless speakers, while downloading an HD movie, and transferring high-resolution photos.
Dolby Atmos
Fire HDX 8.9 is the first tablet to feature the Dolby Atmos experience, which transforms the headphone listening experience by creating multidimensional sound that flows above and around you. In a movie with Dolby Atmos, sound moves around you to match what you see on the screen—rain on a roof, airplanes taking off—so you'll hear the sounds where they would be in real life. Additional enhancements include 5.1 multi-channel sound field, playback volume consistency, dynamically adjusting audio content, and clear movie dialog for Amazon Video.
Console-quality graphics
The Adreno 420 graphics processor delivers high frame rates and console-quality graphics—70% faster graphics performance than the previous generation Fire HDX 8.9. Graphic-intensive games and advanced apps are ultra-responsive and run smoothly, using less battery power.
Exclusive HDX display
Fire HDX 8.9 has the highest resolution (2560x1600) and the best pixel density (339 ppi) of our latest Fire tablets, providing an incredible multimedia experience. The HDX display features over 4 million pixels for vivid, lifelike images that go beyond standard HD.
Perfect color
The HDX display features perfect color (100% sRGB), displaying images and videos as the photographer or videographer intended.
Better viewing indoors and out
The HDX display features dynamic image contrast, which automatically optimizes the color of each pixel based on the amount of light in your surroundings. This makes images and videos even easier to see in any lighting condition, including outdoors.
Dynamic Light Control
Fire HDX 8.9 features Dynamic Light Control, which changes the white point of the display, matching its color and warmth to the ambient light of your surroundings in order to make the display more closely resemble a piece of paper—this makes the best reading experience on a tablet even better.
Rear-facing camera
Fire HDX 8.9 features an 8MP rear-facing camera that allows for high-resolution photos and 1080p HD video. The rear camera includes an LED flash, Electronic Image Stabilization to remove hand jitters, a wide-aperture lens, and support for Panorama and High Dynamic Range (HDR) photos. Our camera app also includes a film strip of recent photos and videos for quick access to edit, share, and delete.
Front-facing camera
Fire HDX 8.9 has a front-facing 720p HD camera, perfect for Skype HD video calls and taking photos to share via Facebook or email.
Edit and share photos
Our beautifully designed photo app makes it easy to view your albums or watch personal videos. Sharing your photos couldn't be easier—simply tap on individual images to email them to anyone you like.
Immediate video start with ASAP
No more waiting for a video to buffer every time you hit "Play." ASAP (Advanced Streaming and Prediction) learns what movies and shows you like and gets them ready for you to watch. The more you view videos on your Fire tablet, the more accurate ASAP becomes, dynamically adapting to your viewing habits.
Watch on the big screen
Fling movies and TV shows from your tablet to your big-screen TV using Second Screen. This turns your TV into the primary screen, freeing up your Fire HDX for playback controls, a customized display for X-Ray, or a place to email, browse the web, and more while you watch a movie. Second Screen is available for Amazon Fire TV, PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4.

Mayday is available 24x7, 365 days a year, and it's free. Throughout the process, you will be able to see your Amazon tech advisor live on your screen, but they won't see you. 15 seconds or less is the Mayday response time goal.
Connect, stream, and download
Fire HDX 8.9 features the latest MIMO (Multiple Input and Multiple Output) and 802.11ac mobile wireless technology, capable of reaching peak bandwidths of 600Mbps, which is up to 4x faster than the previous-generation Fire HDX. Connect to the internet, stream, and download at ultrafast speeds.
