At 13.2 ounces (13.5 ounces for 4G version), the Kindle Fire HDX 8.9″ is 34% lighter than the previous generation. To achieve this revolutionary light weight, Amazon integrated the capacitive touch layer directly into the glass display, and created a unique magnesium unibody from a single piece of machined magnesium and a blend of glass and nylon – the same material used in high-performance race cars. The result is a light, durable, portable tablet. More information.
