Customer Ratings & Reviews

Very satisfied with this purchase. Fast, big screen and good resolution. Bought it for my son around Xmas and I got a very good deal too! Wish I had bought 2 at that price. ($100)

Bought one to replace the smaller (non HD) version. Lot faster and picture is noticeably better. Would recommend for anyone not wanting to spend the extra $50 or so on the big names.

Lightweight, performant, and packed with features. This device is great for reading, music, or movies on the go as well as web browsing and email.

This is my second Kindle and I love it. It's lightweight, simple, and fast. It's convenient for trips and fits in my bag without weighing it down.

I have a kindle and wanted more options. I love the bigger screen. I find it easy to read. It can have some reflection under lights but not much.

I use this primarily as a book reader which enables me to also retrieve emails and do basis searches. For these types of activities, at the price, I think it is a worthwhile purchase. THe resolution is adequate and the control buttons are pretty intuitive. I have had occasional problems logging into the system (boot up malfunction I think) but on retry the problem disappeared. I do not view it as anything more than a basic information retrieval devise. AS long as one recognizes the limitations, I think it is full value for money. My one remaining concern , having had the tablet for only a few months, is how long it will last

With a little tweaking you can install Playstore without rooting. It's a great tablet, excellent color, fast, and battery lasts a very long time.

First as all the product it was good but I was able to see the performance to detoriate. Also the Wifi reception a little bit far away from the router creates problem. It gets disconnected. This is based on comparison based on Apple Ipaad Mini where Wifi reception is intact.

this is my first tablet .. love it .. actually read my first e-book on it .. large screen, easy to read & play games .. fits nicely in my purse

We have several kindles and this is the latest version. Its packed with Amazon marketing stuff which is fine if you use them but most just take up space for us. This new version comes with 16gb but allows you to expand the memory with an sd card which is great. One problem if you have a few other kindles is that they are linked to your account so if they are for different family members/kids they may end up with the same stuff on them. My kids mainly use them for game apps and YouTube videos which am seem to work great. The sound is good and the hd video is nice. Overall happy with it and the price was good for this type of tablet.

I upgraded my mother's 3rd generation Amazon Kindle Fire HD 7" to this new one and she likes the display being bigger to 8" and is much faster.

Newest version of Kindle Fire product line is a hit. Larger screen for not much money, good screen resolution and longer battery life. No problems, and I'm a happy reader!

I only have an older ipad to compare this to, but there is literally no comparison. The Fire 8" tablet is lightweight, connects ultra fast to wifi, has an easy-to-follow automatic set up, and comes with tons of features that I'm only beginning to explore. I wasn't expecting this at all! I'm a total convert especially because the price is so reasonable, too.

I was not sure what to expect from this little tablet at such a low price but I am impressed! The 8 inch version is a good size and a lot easier to carry around than my heavier 10 inch tablet. I read negative reviews about the video quality but I have not had any issues and use it to watch Netflix regularly with very clear and uninterrupted quality. The amazon App Store is definitely limited but with an android based system, it is very easy to install the google play store without having to root your device and voiding the warranty.

I bought this tablet during black friday for 60 dollars and it is well worth the price. Definitely an upgrade from the first gen tablet.

Enjoy having a device that I did not have to pay for through the nose. Enjoy having a device that makes it easier to read on the go.

Bought this for my daughter to replace a worn out ipad. She is happier with the size. The resolution is nice. Great buy for the price

I haven't had my Fire long enough to have explored all it has to offer. I've downloaded a couple of audio books that sound great and are easy to install and play. Not my way to watch movies or TV but the screen is nice. Very clear and sharp. Audio is just OK from the speakers, you'll want some nice head phones or buds for music or movies. I really like the Fire 8, it seems like a lot of gadget for the money.

I enjoy using this Kindle fire 8". The apps are easy to install, the screen is a great size. I can even use it without my glasses.

I thoroughly enjoy this table! Easy to operate, plenty of memory, and I can use it for anything that I typically use a computer for.
