    Fire HD 8”

    Really a very good product at a reasonable price. It comes with the Kindle app which is great for Ebooks. It’s nearly is fast as my phone for searching the internet. The 8’ screen is plenty big and it keeps the tablet compact.

    Great Tablet

    We have 6 foster children and these budget friendly tablets help with learning. You can set time limits and playing hours. There is a parent app that controls what they can access. Only drawback is you can only set 4 profiles but the workaround is using the same profile on more than one tablet. The information for apps and games is only saved on the tablet that it is opened on. I recommend getting a screen protector and kid proof case.

    Highly recommended as an e-reader

    I LOVE my Kindle Fire. I bought it primarily for reading ebooks and Kindle's paperwhite technology makes it easier on the eyes than reading on a phone or tablet. I added an after market strap and it's even more enjoyable now. It's lighter than my old Kindle Fire and just as good, of not better on color and graphics. I'm so glad I purchased mine.

    It's ok

    The screen is good the color and size is nice. When viewing some movies it's good. For reading it's good. The bad thing is it drains the battery fast. You can watch at least one movie without having to charge it but that's about it. Even if you sideload Google Playstore you still cannot get a lot of things. For example,Mario Kart cannot be downloaded even if you sideload Google Playstore. You can't download Viki Rakuten and I'm sure there are many more apps that can't be downloaded. It has some games that are okay and the color is nice. Though you have to put it on the highest brightness setting in order to see movies and Youtube properly. I did sideload the Youtube because if you use the regular one that comes on the device you can't watch Youtube movies on it. Only with the sideload Youtube you can. Reading on it is very comfortable, I have several bible apps on it for studying and it's good for it. I do have Amazon Kids subscription and my son borrows it for kids games and he seems to like it. The speakers and sound is not really good on some videos. Some websites take forever to load, like Best Buy. I would only suggest to buy it when it's on sale.
