Customer Ratings & Reviews

Paid $35 on sale. This tablet offers great capability for most people. Very good item for Amazon Prime members. Not the greatest specs but works fine. The ads aren't too annoying. The micro-SD slot allows you to put lots of music/video on this unit.

For the price, it's a decent tablet. They way they get the price down is to psuh ads to your device. You can pay $15 to get the ads removed. Overall it's a good tablet.

The person I bought this for really loved the product, it was compact enough to carry to the beach, yet large enough to read from. The price when purchased was amazing and you can't beat it for speed and ease of using.

This is a great tablet for the price. We have 3 of them now one for each family member. Easy to use and does everything that the high priced tablets do.love them never had a bad issue yet

We got two of these tablets for my twins for Christmas and they are great. Using the parental controls plus the durability you cant beat the price. Also there have been not one issue with the tablet. Great inexpensive tablet for kids or anyone.

awesome tablet the best i ever bought for $50 great screen great angles and fast even two months in and alot of apps bought it for my little sister and two months later still going strong

I love this little tablet! The clarity is very nice, it boots up fast and is simple to use. The price was so right, too! And the extra SD card slot is such a plus. I use an iPad too but this tablet is great for reading my eBooks. A great buy!

Purchased two of these tablets as gifts to the grandsons. Set up was a breeze, and Mom & Dad especially like the features for younger children. We also added a 64gb SD Card to both for the added storage! Overall, everyone is quite happy...

I got this Kindle as a Christmas gift for a friend. Couldn't pass up the Black Friday price on this thing! Works great. She loves it. Success!

My son picked this device for reading books and accessing kids apps mostly due to the excellent price and user friendliness. I like the parental controls and how it lets me set a daily time limit. Great value!

The new kindle has so many great features and is an excellent upgrade over the previous version. I love the ease in using it and it is so compact and light i take it every where. A perfect christmas gift and great value for the price.

I bought 2, 1 for my wife to replace her older tablet and 1 for my grandson, who is 8 yrs old. They both love their fire. My wife has told me it is fast and easy to operate while my grandson takes it everywhere and plays games on it.

This is a wonderful tablet for the price. I do a lot with Kindle based books and the size is great for reading. That it has the ability to take a 128GB Micro SD card really makes this a steal for the price.

A nice high quality tablet with a fast processor. Superb image quality, long battery life, and a great value. Equal quality and performance of an IPad at a fraction of the cost.

My 12yr old daughter loves it, she did not want an expensive high end tablet. This tablet is very light, very good sound and fast. The plastic screen does not feel of any less quality than a glass screen.

We purchased this tablet for my daughter for Christmas. She is in kindergarten, and her school allows them to take a device in to use in class. For $39 I couldn't beat that. Especially since i'm not going to send a 5 year old to school with an iPad! This tablet uses FireOS, which is Amazon's customized version of Android. Typically when I look at an android tablet, major deviations from vanilla Android will make me deduct ratings. The parental controls override any rating deduction in my mind. This tablet has the best parental controls I have ever seen! In addition, the alterations to the home screen make navigation pretty easy for my daughter. All in all this is a win win! The thing that has really impressed me has been the speed and responsiveness. Don't get me wrong, this is not a premium or flagship tablet by any means. With that being said, I have used Android tablets in this price range, and they are garbage! My wife has an insignia tablet that cost $70. It has a higher res screen and a few more features, but it nowhere near as responsive. When it dies it will probably be replaced by an Amazon Fire tablet! Keep in mind, Amazon is trying to hook you into their ecosystem. There are separate home screens for various types of content that Amazon delivers. Your books on one screen, or you can swipe to music on another, etc. From what I see there is no way to have more than one screen of apps. The nice thing about the Amazon ecosystem is that it is cross platform. They maintain apps for Android, iOS, Roku, Windows, MacOS, and so on. Also, their app store is not as extensive as the Google Play Store, so I may end up doing some side loading. That isn't hard, and instructional guides are available online for you. So in conclusion, this is a nice entry level tablet. I would bump up to the Fire HD8 for the extra features if buying for myself. However if buying for younger children or if you're really tight on cash you can't beat it! My twin boys are about to turn 3, and these might be on their list for birthday time!

I was in a Best Buy store when I saw the tablet on display with a sale tag indicating a price of $39.99. I bought it simply based on price. I have a desktop computer, two laptops, two iPads. In other words, I am computer poor. I use this tablet on airplanes to read books, access email, play games, confirm reservations. It is fast, highly portable and easy to use. The battery does last too long but that is not a problem. It is, after all, a $40 tablet. I bought several to give as gifts to nieces and nephews. It is a good computer for kids to use when learning.

The product is very nice. It is very useful and the battery life is great. It crashes every once in a while but apart from that it is an excellent product to gift to someone due to the convenient price!

I love the Fire Kindle/tablet. This is my 3rd kindle, 2nd Fire. The new Fire is so much easier to use as a tablet plus nothing beats a kindle for reading books. This Fire is much easier to use than my husband's Samsung tablet

Who would have thought you could get a tablet for $50? It's fast, fits the hand well, and is perfect for traveling.
