Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a very good tablet for the price (about $50 regular price). Good image quality and battery life. Have been a Prime member for several years, so the included media access - videos, audio and books - is great. It is NOT an android tablet, so much of the Google ecosystem is not available. The Amazon AppStore has lots of options, but not nearly as many as the Google Play Store. Would recommend adding a microSD storage card. Also would get better file manager and video playback apps. There are several good, free options from Amazon's AppStore.

I brought this tablet in December of 2016 for my mother. She uses it regularly now for streaming videos and reading emails. The camera quality is horrible. I would suggest buying another tablet if you want decent pictures. Also, consider that many of the Amazon tablets come with ads as screensavers. To avoid those ads, you can typically pay a one time fee or buy the exact same version for a higher price. Looking back now, I definitely would have given this to my baby brother and brought my mother the newer fire tablet with a bigger screen.

This tablet exceeded my expectations in so many ways! Bought the first a couple months ago for my son's 5th birthday, at this price, i wouldnt be heartbroken if he broke it. Then i got one for my niece, planning to get 2 more, see how excited i am about it? Well worth the price!!

worth the penny bought for my 2 year old daughter who loves playing the games on the amazon store (a decent collection of free games) + watch you tube or stored videos. Only prob is that haven't found any cable so that it can stream the videos on TV (have to go for Fire TV stick)

Kindle is good. I got one for my husband and sister. They are really enjoying them. It is easy to use for someone who never used one. My reason for not giving 5 stars was completely due to my best buy experience. I live in a small town and drove thirty miles to get to best buy only to find they were completely out. Asked for help at service desk and they seemed put out by me.I wanted them to call another best buy to see if they had any.I was willing to hold them with a credit card in order to get them. They would not do that. I had to drive another 50 miles to pick one up. Just thought best buy should have tried to be more accommodating, but it was Christmas shopping season.

Bought these for Christmas, and it was the hit of the gifts! The kids and adults loved them. The adults appreciated the ability to monitor the fires, liked to use them also.

Easy to take on trips, hospital or beach. Clear and sharp display. I like that I can add extra space with a stick. The price was right too. I would recommend highly.

Only reason I was not able to rate this five of five is that the app 3m cloud library is not yet compatible so getting books from the library requires an older app which does not work as well.

System over-all is fast and I mean for less that $50, its very reliable. The only downside, its uses almost 50% of the internal storage already, OS and built-in apps ... Should have settled for 32GB or more. Other than that, this toy is just ok :)

Got this tablet for my 5 year old works great even use it myself sometimes good for movies as well the only thing I don't like is too many adds on it can't take off unless you pay amazon for it

this tablet is the perfect size and very light weight. It is easy to set up and does everything I need it to do. Having a camera is useful too.

I bought my wife one, she bought me one a few weeks later and now I'm going to buy my mamma one. Great on the go, take to work and business trip device. My little girl loves learning on the kids ABC and coloring app!

As inexpensive as this tablet is, it is a great option for children. Each of my kids has one. If they damage it, you aren't out a ton of money like an iPad. Freetime is also a great option to help control apps and time each child is on the kindle.

The benefits of having the kindle fire with expandable memory has been a blessing. Everyone in my family uses the prime benefits and having a kindle for exclusive use is awesome! The benefit of adding memory is way better than the newer version with limited memory of 8 or 16G.

The tablet is great for only $50 but certainly not the most touch responsive. It feels a little slow to me. It also irked me that you have to pay extra to remove the ads from the lock screen.

Great and easy setup. Easy to use for people that don't have much tech experience

Got for my 8 year old. The parental controls are nice. I wish the netflix app was registered as "video", so I could give him 30 minutes of games and 30 minutes of video. I'm sure this works with purchased videos, maybe prime, but not netflix. He Star Wars Commander, netflix, and reads books. It's a good size for little hands. It's great that as the parent, I can buy a book or game, and all devices can use it, even with each other if it's a multiplayer game. I bought a cheap case elsewhere that also props it up for hands-free video watching.

This tablet is simple and easy to use. The only problem I've had is putting in a memory card. The tablet kept pushing it back out, had to read reviews online in order to input it properly.

Bought 2 of these as christmas gifts, simple and easy to use. Both are enjoying it for web browsing/recipes. I set them both up prior to gifting them, i know it is an amazon tablet, having to create another account and use a different app store stinks...But worth the value.

I love the ability to pick and choose magazines, books and more at my leisure. Also love being a prime member and getting a free new book each month as well as 1000s of other selections from Kindle Unlimited! LOVE!
