Bright FuturaStudent Review: Kindle Fire vs. Nook Tablet
Both the Amazon’s Kindle Fire and Barnes & Noble’s Nook Tablet, are essentially e-book readers with tons amazing features. Fortunately, these tablets are quite cheap compared to full-fledged tablets. But most of us would never buy both the Kindle Fire and Nook Tablet so it is time for a student review.

The kindle fire is hands down better. Even though the prices are similar I'd say the K fire is more sleek.
I disagree. It really depends on what you want to use it for. If your looking for more storage and memory than the nook is a better deal.
