Customer Ratings & Reviews

Perfect size. Works great. Just as advertised. Has a long battery life.

Easy to use, fast, sleek and battery holds good charge , happy with it

Bought as a gift to my dad and he likes it so far. It's fast enough for apps and great for reading

Everything I needed it for. Screen is nice enough and price was right.

Easy to use, solid build, sharp HP screen for movies. Who needs more?

Awesome tablet! Super quick, great picture, and overall great quality

Purchased on Black Friday Pros - Great Price (even off sale) Very powerful and fast with quad core processors Amazing sound Well built Cons - Amazon ads, Amazon need this to subsidize the tablet and will remove the adds if you pay them $15. Inability to access other apps except the ones from Amazon. There is a way which I was able to accomplish to add the Google Play store Net this is a great tablet for the money

VERY parent friendly! Extremely thorough parental controls. We were told at the store there was no way to block internet or control other content on a tablet, so we decided not to get one. Then, we read about the integrated parental controls with the Fire and gave it a try. It allowed us to do everything we wanted and more. Also, very easy set up and use!

Screen size good for older people. Great resolution and easy to use.

Very fast and super easy to use I'm very pleased with this purchase!!

I thought about purchasing a Samsung tablet also, however I do like to read as well. I saw several reviews that have a negative view because of the Amazon software and that it is not stock Android. However, I have installed the Play Store (you can find instructions online) and I am very happy with this tablet. I would definitely recommend it. Also I have had 10" tablets before, and this one is just the right size.

I am very pleased with my purchase. My old fire went kaput and I was forced to by a new one. I like almost everything about the new Fire better than the old one. The battery on my old Fire didn't last very long between charges, but the new one lasts many hours more. All in all, I'm glad the old one gave up on life, because I like this one so much.

The fire is great. Durable, easy to use and such a good price.

I use it mainly for reading e-books and browsing. However, I wished there were more apps available. Also, before unlocking the tablet, ads are shown in the lockscreen. If the tab is locked, it stops streaming the ads. You can pay $15 to disable the ads permanently. I only recommend this for basic use. If you want to use it for games or other apps, I would recommend a stronger tablet like the ipad or samsung galaxy.

Easy to use. Good size. Great eReader. Not so expensive that I worry about my kids using it.

I like the size of the device as well as the expandable storage

Love the tablets. Light, Good battery life, and fast performance.

Wasn't guit sure at first if a 8 inch tablet was big enough for my needs .It does everything I expect from it. I'm have no issues.

First, I would like to say I own iPads, iPhone, and many things Apple. Second, I also own many android devices. The main reason for this tablet was to take advantage of the lending library that comes Amazon prime. Over all I would purchase this over an iPad mini any day just for the value alone. At first I thought the display wouldn't be up to snuff compared to my iPad, but for movies and reading, it was good enough that it doesn't take away from the experience. However, there are a few annoying "features" that are on but can and should be turned off. The "on-deck" is a great feature, but I would have liked to have known it was downloading tons of movies in the background, eating up space and bandwidth. A better function would have been to let us choose what to download, instead of getting movies Willynilly. Be sure to turn this off when you get your tablet or it will run slow, and you'll be thinking the tablet is slow. Ok on to kindle for reading. Unfortunately, reading isn't as great as I thought it would be because it doesn't allow scrolling. Works on kindle devices but not on kindle fire devices. If you don't mind flipping the page, then you won't have a problem, but for me, can read much faster by scrolling. One last point, most of the apps aren't as polished under the "Amazon Store" as in the Google play store. I know this because I have an Nexus phone and compared them. For example, the Hue app doesn't even work from Amazon Store. Anyway, this point shouldn't deter you from buying it cause there are solutions.

I love this Tablet. It's easy to use, a great price & lightweight.
