    This is my 2nd Kindle Fire. If this one works and lasts as long and as well as the first one, I'll be completely satisfied.

    I went in today to learn about the Kindle Fire HD8. I did not find any product at the larger Amazon display and then stopped Josh (Salesman) to see if I could order a unit. Josh, took me to a second display of the Kindles and explained all the features and answered my many questions. I was very pleased that he was interested in helping me make my purchase. I would have other wise walked out of the store not even seeing the second display. Josh, is a super employee and you should use him as an example of Great Customer Service!

    Nice tablet for the price. It's fast when loading webpages, etc. the only downfall is the speakers aren't very loud, and it makes it hard to watch videos.

    With the recent promotion for the Amazon Fire HD8 tablet, I just had to get one. It's been a while since I bought a tablet and the one I currently have is getting to be very slow. The tablet will come with a micro USB charging/data cable and a wall adapter. The tablet itself has some weight to it compared to the kindle tablets but won't be a problem if you use it to read sitting up. Initial setup was very straight forward. Once you connect to the WiFi and login to your Amazon account, you should be in the FireOS interface. The tablet is bundled with Amazon apps so everything is just a few swipes away on the screen. The interface itself, is very smooth so I didn't notice any lags at all. I did try a few games and there were some that were a bit slow at times and this was expected from a tablet at this price range. I will mainly use it to browse online and watch videos so don't see this as a huge setback. The buttons, charging port and headphone jack are all on top which will need some getting used to since most devices I've used had side buttons for the power/volume and charging/headphone ports are at the bottom. To the left side are two speakers and there's a micro SD card slot on the right for those who need more memory. The memory card option will be handy since this tablet is only 16GB and I think you have about 11-12GB free out of the box.

    Amazing Tablet at a Great Price!

    Got this on a Black Friday sale for less than $50. It does just about everything. Play games, internet surf, create documents, read books, takes pictures/videos, streams music and movies in HD; it evens talks to you with the Alexa feature. Expandable up to 256gb of memory. Very fast and reliable tablet. For the price, you will find no equal. I haven't even scratched the surface with everything that it can do. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the camera is only a 2mp resolution; which is surprising, considering they bothered to put a HD screen on the tablet.

    We can load up the apps for the four-year-old ... he loves it ... got a heavy-duty case from Amazon ... the screen will break ... good to have the warranty.
