• A:Answer We bought this tablet in October. So far it has been a great purchase. Very happy with this tablet. The Alexa feature is available. The size in my opinion is perfect. Not to small and not to oversized and bulky.

Q: QuestionWhy would you select a 16 over a 8 gigibite?

Asked 9 years ago by Tiki.

• A:Answer I would choose the 16GB, because several APPS require being loaded on the internal memory - so this gives you adequate space for the "pre-installed" apps, and Kindle App, and Audible App - these do not allow you to move them to SD Card, so if you like books / audio books, go for the 16 GB. I have an 8 GB android Phone, and only have 2 GB free space, and can't move anything else to SD card. Apps are getting bigger, and some must be on the device internal storage.

Q: QuestionDoes it work internationally - If I need to send and gift it to someone outside U.S?

Asked 8 years ago by Prashant.

• A:Answer Since it is a wifi only device, it should work just fine wherever there is a useable wireless connection and the right wall charge adapter. You don't really have to set up an Amazon account to use it either, you'd need to side-load any app apks though.

Q: QuestionHow is it different than the Kindle fire?

Asked 8 years ago by deanna.

• A:Answer The Best Buy listing is for a Fire HD 8, but the 2016 model. Overall, the Fire 8 has better audio and wifi than the 7. Compared to a Kindle paper white, the Fire HD offers access to more than just your Kindle library as well as the ability to access the internet and download video content. The Fire HD is heavier than the paperwhite, so if you are spending a lot of time reading, it may be less user friendly for that purpose.
