Doesn't work
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've only had this Kindle for a few days now and it has turned off and won't turn back on. The power is charged and nothing has worked to turn it back on. I loved my previous kindle but wanted an upgrade and so far it is disappointing.

DOA
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It came DOA. I Just turned it on and after 1 minute it died. Tried to charge it, but it didn’t work. At least the process of getting a credit from Best Buy was smooth. Got a Samsung Galaxy Tab 8. More expensive but it works!

Have to pay $15 to remove advertisements
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought several Kindle Fire 8 tablets as gifts and no where does it state on the packaging that there is a fee required to move advertisements from the home screen. I was rather furious about this when I first saw an advertisement on my lock screen offering movie theater tickets and later when I read about the process to remove the advertisements. Best Buy should have warned me that these were "subsidized" tablets.... Best Buy simply called it a sale price when the discount only exists because of the forced unsolicited advertisements. All in all the hardware for the price is definitely worth it and the Amazon app library is diverse enough. The advertisements being baked into the operating system is completely unacceptable in my opinion and a disgraceful thing for Amazon to do. That rant complete... Amazon resolved this issue for me very quickly... in a single support chat engagement less than 10 minutes. I provided them a list of the serial numbers (the DSN number on the package) and they removed the advertisements for free (saving me and/or my gift recipients $60 for removal from 4 tablets) as did it so whoever activated the tablets i'll be giving as a Christmas gift will automatically have the advertisements removed.

Great Hardware for the Money, Awful OS
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the money, the hardware is amazing. Wonderful screen, colors, contrast, responsive and snappy processor. It streams movies extremely well, and with the SD card, for very little cost (relatively), you can fill it with TV and movies. Apps are fairly well supported, but not as good as say an Android device, but still very good. The bad thing, however, is the OS. It's really poor, and if you have an SD card, may not even work. Since 5.6.0.0 came out in November, it will freeze, sometimes giving the message "SD card unexpectedly removed" beforehand. This is worth googling before you purchase, as if you cannot have this device correctly function with an SD card, it is not worth the money I'm afraid. To summarize, do some research on known issues before buying this. As is, I cannot recommend it at all.

Great Tablet for Price
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was hesitant when buying this but it has exceeded my expectations. It is fast, battery life is great, and the screen resolution is as described. I have used it to read my online books/textbooks. Perfect for a student. Opens files easily from email. Only con is it doesn't have Google Play Store but that can be resolved by downloading it yourself, just google how to do it, it's very simple!
