Kindle Fire vs. iPad: Which one has stronger gravity this holiday season?

If you are following the trend in technology, especially about gadgets, you should have known these two rivals on the contemporary tech times - Kindle Fire vs iPad!

Holiday season is fast approaching and we can't deny the fact that those geek individuals are planning to buy gadget as a present for their loved ones, or for themselves. At present, the most common question a potential buyer should encounter is: Which one should I buy - a Kindle Fire or or iPad?

So far, as one survey revealed, many shoppers are turning towards the Kindle Fire instead of an iPad during the incoming holiday season.

Based on the survey, more current and non-current tablet owners responded that they are planning to buy a Kindle Fire over an iPad in the next couple of months. Here’s the summary:

  • 20 percent of tablet owners said yes, an iPad
  • 10 percent of people said yes, an iPad
  • 27 percent of tablet owners said yes, the Amazon Kindle Fire Tablet
  • 12 percent of non-tablet owners said, yes, the Amazon Kindle Fire Tablet

Another question: Would you consider buying the recently announced 7-inch Android tablet made by Amazon priced at $199 instead of 9.7-inch iPad 2 this holiday season?

The answer can be gleaned on the following pie graph.

Approximately half of the participants on the survey said they would consider buying a Kindle Fire over an iPad — but sometimes statistics tells otherwise.

What makes the consumer attracted with such gravity on Kindle Fire?

The attraction power of Amazon Kindle Fire versus iPad 2 could be attributed to:
1. Price: Obviously $199 is a more affordable present than $499.
2. Screen Size: Although there have been questions about a 7-inch tablet market in the past, there have also been questions about whether or not any tablet can compete with the iPad.

The answer is obviously yes to both debates: there is room for 7-inch tablets and the iPad has serious competition now — regardless of the argument that the Kindle Fire creates a new, lower-end tablet space that wouldn’t compete with the iPad.

If you were ask the same questions on the survey, which one would you consider - Kindle Fire or iPad?
