Which Is Better For Your Money? Kindle Fire Or The IPAD?

The most recent televised and advertised item I can think of is the kindle Fire tablet by Amazon. This is being portrayed by the media to be better than the Apple IPAD tablet. If you have not seen the commercials yet then don’t worry you’re not missing anything. I understand that there is a crisis in the electronic device industry due to apple’s great ideas but wow really? The kindle looks like a piece of plastic that has no great benefits.

The media is blowing this device out of the water when it does not even have half the feature that the IPAD has. Did you know that the kindle fire has no camera? I am sure you did not but that’s not a big deal but no app store? What’s the purpose of this expensive piece of plastic? Well it offers a dual core processor that the IPAD has and a high resolution screen that the IPAD has as well. Hmmm, I’ve yet to see any feature that encourages me to purchase this tablet. Why would the media market this product? Is this what they call marketing? Is this is done just to make a paycheck to live off?

Amazon Sales Surpass All Time High

Well Amazon has paid celebrities money to use their product to show off to the public. Jane Linch is the celebrity hired by Amazon to use this public on television to capture consumers to buy the new tablet. The commercial is intended to attract young and older adults. The tablet features games and web surfing for the young teens and books and email for the adults. Doesn’t apple offer the same features with their IPAD line? I believe so but there is one difference in both products and that is the price. Apple IPAD is pricey but you get great technical support and a product that takes a beating.

I am sure that the celebrities hired to do commercials like this half the time don’t even own the product they sponsor. This is a large marketing scam if you ask me for my opinion. The holidays are a great time to spend millions on large commercials to attract buyers. Christmas shopping here in the United States is huge and everyone wants their products to be on everyone’s wish list. This causes large corporations to create large marketing campaigns behind their products to bring in a high demand for their product. Apple products are a monopoly in their own class but at least they do not offer low class quality products that do not offer the features that they market.

The Amazon commercial created to market the kindle fire had to be banned from TV due to people wrong image of the product. In the commercial people receive their new kindle fire poorly shipped and left outside for other’s to steal. Now you must be thinking what does this have to do with the product? Well if you purchase something I am sure you don’t want it to get stolen so that marketing ideal was trashed because people did not want to buy the product if they had to take a risk of having it stolen. Commercials like that one can drive your product to the ground and this is why it is very important to showcase your product the correct way if you want to sell it. Shortly after pulling the commercial over the air waves a new commercial was released that encouraged buyers to purchase the same product, now that was a proper propaganda platform.
