Perfect size for a kid. She absolutely loves it. Would recommend.

Absolutely the most cost-effective way to watch Netflix or read a book in bed or at the coffee shop. However, there is no way to buy the ad-free version from BB (I asked Amazon). It's still a good deal but add $15 to the price if you don't want idle broadcast adds from Amazon.

Hello Jcolond! Thank you so much for your review of your Fire HD 8 tablet! I am glad you are enjoying the device! As you stated, this device is sold with lock screen ads called "Special Offers". And while Best Buy does not offer the product without these Special Offers at the higher price, you are able to pay a one time fee through your Amazon profile Devices page by clicking to Remove Special Offers. This will allow you to have the lock screen ads removed permanently under your profile and device. We have these in place to allow for the highest discount available to keep this aggressively value priced. However, we understand that not everyone will want to keep these active on their lock screen. Thanks again for your time and feedback and hope you have a terrific day!

I bought this in order to read the digital magazines available through my library, and it has been amazing! Easy to set up and use, and a great price too.
Good Fire tablet but the speed isnt worth the cost

Performance is the okay but not great as it is basically the same as the 2022 model which i didn’t own. But it’s okay for YouTube and for casual use. The battery life is great lasting 2 days from 100% to 60%. Overall, good tablet but buy it on sale like I did.

This Amazon Fire won't outshine an iPad, and it's not as good an e-reader as an e-ink Kindle, but for a cheap tablet, it's not bad. Most annoying feature is the easily-bumpable power button, so you might want to buy a cheap case for this.
