  • QuestionIs this a good thing to draw on

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer Hi! The Fire HD 8 is good for casual, basic drawing and sketching, especially with a simple capacitive stylus. It's not ideal for serious digital art due to a lack of pressure sensitivity, potential lag, and the limited options in the app store. I hope this answers your question!

  • QuestionIs the Kindle battery replaceable ???

    Asked by Chuck.

    • Answer Hello Chuck, Kindle and Fire TV Batteries are technically replaceable and their are options on Amazon.com for replacements. I would however strongly state, that doing any sort of user repair could void the devices warranty. Before trying to change the battery yourself, I would consult the devices warranty either by contacting us at 1.888.280.4331 or looking up your devices user manual. Another option would be taking the device in to your local Best Buy Geek Squad. If you purchased a Geek Squad Protection Plan, they may be able to fix or even replace the device if it's deemed defective. I hope this answers your question.
