Identification and Background

Identification

The Nook HD is also marketed as the NOOK HD - they are the same product. The Nook HD is one of two 3rd-generation Nook color tablet e-reader devices, released in both an 8 and 16 gigabyte version. It is offered in two colors, Snow (white) and Smoke (black-grey.) The Nook HD can be distinguished from the Nook HD+ due to its smaller 7'' screen.

This device is moderately easy to repair.
