Nowadays, it's not really art or science deciding how tablets look, but more as a kind of wish for familiarity. In which sense, the kindle fire serves its purpose fabulously. The device is little more than a matte black rectangle together with the requisite rounded corners. The front of the Amazon Kindle 4 Fire is eaten up by its display as well as a small camera peering out through the black bezel which runs around the screen. The perimeters of the device are downturned from front to back, broken only by a headphone jack, volume rocker, and power and sleep button integrated into the top (or right side in landscape) of the device. Along the bottom you'll find a Micro USB and Micro HDMI port (you can project the content on to a big screen). The Amazon kindle 4 Fire possesses a soft-touch black backing, utilizing a thin plastic strip across the length of your new toy that houses a set of stereo speakers.
