Customer Ratings & Reviews

I am looking forward to getting one for myself. The person I got this for for swore up and down he din't want a tablet or need one. Now he loves it, even for reading. I thought he would never give up paperbacks.

My nephew loved this for Christmas. He can now read, surf the web, play games, watch movies all on his kindle fire. Definitely an aunt win!

I bought this tablet because it was on sale and i had heard it was a good entry level tablet. It is quick on the touch response. Camera is decent but not the best. Its good to view videos.

I have the larger 8.9 hdx Kindle but find it cumbersome when going places. Plus sometimes I am places where I shouldn't necessarily have my kindle with me. I needed something small and concealable, just for reading books. This is PERFECT!!! I would have rated it 5 starts but two weeks after I bought the black one they introduced a purple one. GRRRRR!!!

This is not a top level tablet, but it was not designed to be one. It is nice to have a toss in the car/backpack/etc. one that performs reasonably well and you don't have to worry about it

Great tablet for beginners at a great price point. Takes a little to get used to the Amazon operating system. Make sure you get a memory card with this as you have limited internal memory

we bought this amazon tablet because my 3 year received one as a gift for her aunt. My 2 year was using an iPad but kept dropping it. This is great because it's small enough for him to hold and if you buy the case it's completely protected. The only issue we seem to have is that the power cord is really loose when you plug it in to charge so sometimes it does not get charged. That is the only reason I'm giving it 4 stars.

Use this tablet for travel - has mini sd to keep movies and files- great for kindle book downloads - fabulous price

I decided to buy my son a tablet. After lots of research, this turned out to be the best one for it's price point. It even has expandable memory! So if you want a simple go to tablet I highly recommend this one!

My girlfriend has been using an iPad for several years. She decided she wanted to try the Kindle because I liked mine so much, so I got one for her for Christmas. Now she is hooked. (Anyone want to buy an iPad?)

I got this as a second Kindle e-reader as well as an educational and leisure tablet. I also have a Kindle Keyboard; I thought that I wasn't going to enjoy reading on the Fire because of the back-light, but it is very adjustable and has a setting to turn the blue-light off for reading at night. I also wanted my kindergarten students to be able to use it educationally; it has a kid mode with great parental settings and an option to pay $2.99 a month for tons of awesome content!

I purchased this TAB as a gift for a family member. They are very happy with this product and it's features. The applications that come with this product are great. Happy to be a part of the amazon fire family.

I got this for my mother who isn't very tech savvy as I needed to get her something to get use to touch screens and smart devices. Its fairly user friendly and she is doing well with it.

I like the Kindle fire, but is lacking on instruction. Hard to figure out how to use the features. Definitely need a stylus tool to use.

Love the kindle product have purchased several kindles and several types and this is another great product. this model doesnt have the auto dimming feature that i like on previous model but still a great kindle

I had a Kindle a couple of years ago and didn't like it, but with the great price and wanting to get another tablet, I bought this one and am very glad. I had some trouble setting it up due to password issues but now it's easy and offers lots to do and for sure more for me to learn. I highly recommend this product, maybe for someone starting out. It does as much as an IPad in an easy to carry package, great photos, email, everything, and the price cannot be beat.

Very easy to use and the battery life last long on this this tablet. I am very happy that I purchased this item:)

Hi my name is Stephanie and I teach grades K-8 as a resource room instructor. I help to improve upon my students' reading and math learning goals and skills, and this tablet is great. I recently signed up for a trial membership with IXL, a skill-based website for kids. My students are able to work on their individual skills on this tablet in my classroom, and having it is a good resource. For $50, it is affordable and a great resource to have. Thank you, from Stephanie

Great product compact and easy to get around in. Was able to download almost all my favorite apps

Tablet was brought for my fiance for Christmas. I had to return it because it kept freezing up. Also, it didnt get Clash of the Clans game..
