    Purchased this tablet for my kids to use while riding on long trips. Expandable memory is great. Loaded this tablet with all their favorite shows and games.

    I bought this for my boyfriend because he kept stealing my iPad. He is definitely not a “Tekkie”, but is able to maneuver this tablet with ease. Now we have our own time on our own tablets.

    I have had both and I am not sure why someone would spend $300 when you get the kindle for about $80. It does almost everything that the iPad does.

    I purchased this for a 3 yr old who breezes through the apps, videos with no worries. I have to ask him for help sometimes. I love the confidence it has given him.

    This is my 3rd time buying a kindle for my nieces and nephews. It saves us from hearing fights over who is hogging the laptop. It’s functional and a great value.

    Purchased for my mom for Christmas. She likes it for playing memory games, and reading books online. Works fine for these tasks but screen size is limiting how much to use it for.

    This tablet is supposed to be pretty fast because of the quad core processor but it is quite slow. Not worth the money.

    I own an iPad, Samsung, and this tablet and for the mostly entertainment purposes I use a tablet for, the fire tablet is by far the best value.
