a wasted potential

negative:
- Battery permanently installed and no service by Amazon in case of failure (is known, the device does, however, for Wackelkandidaten)
- Battery life (for me) is less than indicated (I use the device with the lowest brightness level, etc.)
- No Custom background (my a mystery that this will not be considered, even though so many customer review)
- The AppStore (was known to me and I thought it would be of no consequence - I was wrong; the lack AppStore care by Amazon in the form of lack of necessary updates and useful apps (new features, etc) and of course the rigorous rejection of "Google" services is not okay)
- Any adjustment relating to the "carousel"
- The "Silk" browser (in short: fast is something else, I feel this as a disaster)
- No way to see a bank (or I have not yet found) In my case it is a Kindle voucher which I have been honored and I want to get displayed the remaining balance, which apparently can not. I let myself but happy to disabuse.

These were all first points. I have the device for several months now and it may, I think, appreciate quite well.
If the "Google" services are missing in the future, this unit for me, in spite of great value for money (even with the aforementioned "defects"), not an option. The limitations are partially catastrophic and really assess only when using the tablets.

I emphasize again that the device not only has disadvantages but also many significant advantages which make the competition look partly old !! However, this alone is not enough.

I hope that the points are a little helpful. Greeting
