    I love reading on my new Kindle Fire, downloading great books, and all the enhancements and features. I have downloaded apps that I can view TV programs I've missed. My headset works well with it so I may listen without disturbing anyone near me. I can play games while waiting for appointments... easy to carry.

    I really enjoy this product. I upgraded from the 7 inch to this 8 inch version. I also went with more memory since my 8 GB 7 inch ran out of memory way too quick. Most of the memory used on the 8 GB is used by preinstalled program and apps. I definitely recommend getting one with at least 16 GB, if not more.

    I bought this to help my mom do online banking. She’s afraid of the computer and can’t see the information as well on her iPhone. This is a great size and is easy to use. Unfortunately, she won’t be using any of the available features or apps, but it’s perfect for the one need she has.

    I needed something to read at night without waking my boyfriend sleeping next to me. He surprised me for Christmas with this. It was so easy to set up. Has Alexa built in, cameras, and it fun to use!!! I can throw it in my purse and not worry about it weighing me down. Love this!

    I use my kindle every day at home and at work every day. I've given my first one to my mom and bought some for gifts. I especially like the new battery saving feature. Hopefully they will also improve the camera and video recording. A great tablet for the money overall. I would buy again!

    Bought this for my daughter and she loves it. She can play games on it, search the web, and watch movies. She has her profile to do all that on while I have a profile as well that I can monitor and have parental control on. Screen display is great and its lightweight. Sound is just right and even with a case on it.

    Bought this for my wife because she prefers reading books online or in digital form. That way we don't have a bunch of old books laying around. She absolutely loves it. Perfect size for her hands and she even uses it too watch movies. Best of all, you can't beat the price!

    Great for all to use. We have several, my husband used his so much it lost it's blue shade. This one replaced that one. He is happy again. Kindle fire is the easiest device to use for young and old. Play games, read your email, search the web, take videos and pictures.

    I bought this tablet for my 4 year old son. It's the perfect size and I am able to download many games and shows to keep him entertained when needed. There are times this can run a little slow, but overall, it's a great tablet for a 4 year old and 30+ year old (we can have different profiles so I can control what he has access to)!

    I've owned lots of cheap and expensive phones and tablets and I just needed something to get me by until I saved more money to replace my old tablet, bought this not expecting much from an 80 dollar tablet...I absolutely love it, it performs great, even with the limited space it doesn't seem to fill up like my old tablet did, maybe it organizes its files better I'm not sure..my last tablet was a 16 gig tablet also and after 4 or 5 apps it would say it was full lol I been downloading games and taking pictures and it's staying around 55-60%, I run a cleaner and malwarwbites on it daily just to be sure it's at top performance but I'm not sure if I'm going to be saving for a more expensive one now bc this one is doing everything I want from it. I absolutely love it.

    Great inexpensive tablet. I wouldn't use it for any heavy usage or serious needs, but for kids, streaming, and other simple uses it makes a great affordable tablet. It constant ads annoyed me but they can be removed if you contact amazon so no problems there.

    A very affordable tablet for anyone that wants a tablet for streaming or reading. It does what you want it to do. No, it doesn't take good photos or allow you to produce a movie on it, but it is a tablet for those that just want to be able to relax and enjoy without spending a ton of money.

    This is essentially a prime video machine. Minimal storage, but capable of expanded storage. Expanded storage works with select applications. Sound is terrible, but headphones/speakers will remedy this issue. Battery life is fine. If you are looking for performance look elsewhere this tablet is not for productivity.

    Really nice tablet at a reasonable price. Takes good pictures. Video and sound excellent for watching Prime, or reading. Perfect screen size. You will need a screen protector and case Battery is adequate for every day use. Charges quickly.

    Purchased this device for my dad in order to replace and old black and white small screen Kindle he had. This device is so much lighter in weight than his old device and is much nicer and easier to use as well. My dad loves the upgrade.

    Love it and love the price of Black Friday deal. Unbelievable to have such a slick machine for $50! Touchscreen tablet that plays movies and even my Showtime Anywhere. Only issue was really my fault. I got it right before flying and didn't realize I had to download something in order to see it on my flight. My fault, but I won't be fooled again. I'm on a trial of Prime and Audible, but they let you download anything during the trial and keep it forever, so I'm getting every season of all the Amazon shows I've never seen and will watch them at my leisure. Not so happy about the price of a case.
