    Bought this with a warranty and it cost less than the fire I purchased from Amazon (that lasted only 6 months and I had to toss) Very pleased with this purchase.

    I purchased for my 13 year old son. He rarely uses it and i took it for myself. I’m not tech savvy but I works for me.

    Bought this kindle as a Christmas gift. We own a few of the older models, and this one is great! Works very well and has many upgraded features. Love the blue color also.

    This is a good device if you are an amazon Prime member, but it limits access to other apps. Although, I've heard of others unlocking it to get other apps.

    I've read a few books, downloaded a magazine, set up a Zoom account, put Facebook and email on it. My phone battery is now lasting twice as long.

    Pretty fast depending upon your wifi speed. This is my 2nd fire tablet and I suggest you purchase a 3yr warranty with GeekSquad as I did for automatic no questions as replacement.

    My old Kindle was over 5 years old. It was used primarily for playing games. This Kindle is much lighter and much faster and more responsive for playing game.

    This device had noticeable improvement compared to the previous model. The processing power increase was obvious as browsing and watching videos was a much smoother experience.

    I bought this as an early Christmas present. The HD8 works well and is handy for Netflix while we are travelling. I do wish they had an option for more than 16G memory.

    I was skeptical at 1st coz I thought they are running everything in their own platform and not like any other tablet. I was surprised that it was easy to use and quality of the video is really good

    Can't find anything better performing for the price point! Media playback is it's best asset and there's no over tablet that can best it at this price!
