    The product is excellent for media, through different apps you can watch movies in high resolution and great sound, worth to mention that it also has a great battery life. Now my youngest daughter has a new best friend, Alexa (that's what she is saying)...

    I bought this tablet for my toddler daughter. This is her first tablet, so far she loves it. I suggest anyone to buy case for it, if you are buying for your kids. She dropped it multiple times, even throws when she gets mad ; still working. Now, she never asks my phone.

    I use the Amazon Fire Tablet everyday for reading, researching, and taking notes I want to use at a later date. I can take it anywhere I go to assist me with reading, writing, and researching.

    My first Amazon Fire, I bought this for my father to use as a Kindle e-reader. He caught on quickly and it works great. There are complaints about it not being fast, but as an e-reader, it's set for its use. Zero complaints.

    This is a great tablet, specially for kids. Why spend hundreds of dollar on an iPad for children who are going to destroy it within a few months. But this Fire Tablet from Amazon and get a foam cover. My kids drop this everyday and it works great.

    This tablet is awesome. The wife and kids have older generations. Finally broke down and got myself one. For the price it can't be beat. why spend hundreds on I Pads. I can accomplish the same objects as my friend with I Pads and I didn't spend an arm and a leg.

    These are always a hit for an easy gift for kids. They last long if they are not being abused and allows them to play games, get online, take pictures and record videos. Plus I can control things with easy from my account!

    I wanted to replace my kindle white before it died. A friend showed her new Kindle Fire to me. I was impressed with her demonstration so I went out and purchased one the following day. It is the best kindle with so many additional options for me to use. Love it!

    Wife got me this tablet so that I could watch Netflix on trips. Real simple to set up. App store is somewhat limited but has the necessities and really is a great little tablet at the price. Picture quality is not very good but we didn't buy it for the camera.

    This is my second Kindle, my first was a 7". I love using the Kindle, it is easy to use. The only thing was that right after I first purchased it, it stopped working for awhile. I couldn't get it to light up. It seems to be fine now, but I hope it doesn't happen again after the warranty is up.

    This Kindle Fire 8 was so worth it for my 8 year old that I bought one for my 4 year old as well! The privacy settings are easy to use to block material from children of certain ages and it’s super easy to use!

    I bought this as a gift for my wife after her previous Kindle died. She uses it daily, sometimes for a couple of hours at a time, and really likes them. Her previous Kindle lasted almost four years even with her extremely heavy usage.

    I really love the Amazon Fire HD 8 tablet. I use it primarily for the Kindle app but I like the technology this tablet has to offer. I owned an iPad before purchasing this tablet and see many of the same functions. It has a good battery life as well.

    I bought this for my 6 year old as she was always borrowing her older brother's I-Pad when he was out of the house. She loves it and can use it without my help. She is able to play games, watch her favorite You Tube videos, read books, and watch movies.
