Customer Ratings & Reviews

Works as well as any of the other more expensive tablets. Resolution is great and size is practical.

My wife loves this kindle big upgrade over her 3rd gen. Works just as well as a tablet as an ereader

It is a good device consider its low cost. Display isn't great plus the Amazon version of the OS is inferior comparing to Android.

I bought this to replace a 3-year old Kindle Fire 7" HDX that I had just dropped on the floor. I sort of panicked, so after doing a couple of hours of research I picked this tablet. Just to be on the safe side I got 16 additional GB of memory. I installed a couple of games (none of them memory hogs) and a cookbook app, in addition to downloading a couple of books and dictionaries. I can honestly say this is the slowest tablet I've ever had. Just rotating the screen takes 7-10 seconds, and that's if there's only one app open. Opening a book or magazine can take half a minute, and God help you if you want to switch between a recipe and a magazine while you're cooking! Amazon is obviously more concerned about showing you constant special offers and apps than having satisfied customers. Since there are no other Fire tablets available for whatever reason (maybe they're being discontinued?) I'll be replacing it with either an iPad or a Galaxy tablet.

PICKED THIS TABLET UP ON BLACK FRIDAY. WHAT A GREAT DEAL. WORKS AWESOME AND HAS ALL OF THE AMAZON APPS.

This tablet was inexpensive, very lightweight, and performs just as good as the more expensive ones.

This is a great tablet for people that are new to tablets and do not want to spend much money on it.

Bought 2 for kids taking a long flight . It was perfect size for movies and games. Easy travel size

Love the no glare feature. Perfect for outdoors. This is light weight and will be great for travel.

This tablet is very good especially considering the price. also has memory slot to increase storage.

it is small enough to carry in your purse and open up a whole new world while waiting at appointments.

Really enjoying my new tablet. I like to travel and me and my family use it to play game and watch movies. Just the right size to.

The Kindle Fire HD has a larger screen (8" vs. 7") and images are crisper with more vibrant colors.

Fun to use and also easy for kids to use as well! Good tablet for books and games for all the family!

Purchased for 8 yr old daughter. It's easy for her to use and allows me to set time limits on her game, internet and streaming.

Bought for my mom, shes in love with it. Use for netflix myself love the 8' great size and cpu speed.

I am very happy with my product. It's nice fancy HD is very cool. I am able to see and read my books in full format now. Thank you.

Had the Fire 7 and was surprised at how much brighter and sharper the screen is on the HD 8.

I did not want to get a new kindle but my old one would not charge or show a charge anymore. I could not depend on it for any length of time so I finally broke down and bought a new one. I am very happy with this one. I was afraid I would lose my music and photos since not all came from the Amazon store. However, everything I had on the old kindle transferred to the new one. I am still learning all about it but so far so good.

Mom loves the tablet. Easy for her to use, she uses it for Facebook, reading, and some of her games.
