This Amazon Fire Tablet offers a comprehensive range of features to cater to your entertainment and productivity needs. Whether you’re checking emails, reading books, listening to audiobooks, playing games, or streaming TV, this tablet has got you covered. The 8-inch model is particularly well-suited for those who prefer a larger screen for immersive viewing and reading experiences. However, it’s not too large to be unwieldy, making it a comfortable choice for everyday use. To enhance your tablet’s protection and extend its lifespan, I recommend investing in a suitable tablet cover. In terms of performance, this tablet delivers exceptional results. The screen boasts a sharp display, ensuring clear and vibrant visuals. Switching between programs is seamless and lag-free, thanks to advanced technology that has come a long way in recent years. It’s remarkable how you can purchase a tablet of this caliber at an affordable price.

This seems to be to be equivalent to the HD 8 Plus from the previous gen. It is fast enough for a basic consumption device (unlike the basic HD 8 from the previous gen, which I found frustratingly sluggish even as an e-reader). The screen quality is just good enough. And I mean that positively. Its actually good enough without being unnecessarily gorgeous like an iPad Mini or something (For comparison, the Fire 7 is NOT good enough, in my opinion). I love the screen size AND the bezel size. I really appreciate that Amazon's designers understand than many of us want a place for our thumbs. Smaller bezels are not always better. Keep in mind that my five-star review is about the balance that Amazon offers regarding quality, usability, and price. If people want a full-featured tablet that can handle more than books, movies, and basic games, then consider an iPad or a more premium Android device. You might not get all the apps you want from the Amazon app store, and not everyone will want to figure out the necessary steps to get other Android apps. Plus, they might slow the device down if you do get them. But for me this is mostly an affordable (especially when on sale) quality full-color e-reader, and I love the look and feel of it.

I purchased this tablet as a gift for my teen, who is an avid reader, and it has been absolutely fantastic so far! Its compact size makes it incredibly easy to carry and keep on hand wherever they go. The durability gives me peace of mind, especially knowing it will hold up to daily use. It’s such a great value for the price, the functionality is awesome and has made reading so much more convenient compared to lugging around multiple books. My teen loves it, and I couldn’t be happier with this purchase—it’s the perfect solution for book lovers on the go!

I actually bought the tablet as a gift for my mother. And I will just say that there is a quality-price ratio here. It is not the best tablet, nor the fastest, but it does its job. Sometimes it is a bit slow or the touch screen does not respond immediately (I will have to check the screen options to see if this can be fixed). The 8-inch size is perfect for carrying it everywhere (but I recommend buying a protector, to extend its useful life and put a micro SD in it to gain more memory). For using streaming services, YouTube, social networks, shopping on Amazon and checking email, it is very good. Although I am sure my mother will only use YouTube, Facebook and any platform that broadcasts Turkish and Asian soap operas.

I find myself reaching for this tablet more often than my Galaxy TAB 10 Ultra or even my iPad Pro 11 due to their size and weight. I can just hold it in one hand. Sure, the experience is pretty basic, but that is its charm. At 8" the screen has enough PPI to make video content pretty clear. The size makes it much easier to hold with one hand. By the way, YouTube looks great in the Silk browser in my opinion. I appreciate the 3.5mm jack as well as Bluetooth connectivity. I find it just as useful as a hub for my home and an entertainment portal in limited spaces such as my kitchen counter. The speakers aren’t great, but they’re good enough in a pinch. While I prefer my Kindle PW, the reading experience is not that bad. Honestly, I like it better for color content such as comics and magazines since the colors pop more and frame focus works smoothly. The browsing experience is decent. Keeping in mind that the memory limitations do not allow for many apps and tabs to be opened at the same time, I have had no issues in doing any browsing and even some productivity tasks. When it’s all said and done, I am quite pleased with the overall experience. The tablet may not be as premium, but managing expectations and considering that “better” tablets cost astronomically much more, this is certainly a bargain -especially when it’s on special.

I use this tablet with Olympus Air A01 software to operate my Air camera (OA.Central app 1.02). In spite of the usual software warning (Android system) when I installed the app, the install was seamless. The operation of my camera was restored. It seems to be more stable, minus the glitches that arose when I operated the camera from the software versions for the iOS system. This software is no longer available for mac devices. The Air is a nice, compact little camera. It is back to making beautiful photos. The Fire tablet is a nice little tablet. Its easy to set up and appears to work seamlessly with my beloved Air camera. Thanks Amazon. Once again, its five star customer experience. And I kind read my kindle library, too.
