after having used these for a few months now I can say that the Fire HD 8 tablet by Amazon is value for money with a good battery life and Dolby Atmos speakers delivering high sound quality

              Anonymous, 13 May 2020why is the "Kids Edition" the most expensive model, lolIt comes with the kid-proof case, 2 years of accidental damage cover, and 12 months of Amazon Fire for Kids unlimited, so lots of extras included that you don't get with the others

                    AnonD-558092, 13 May 2020Willing to bet it uses the Helio A22Definitely the same CPU configuration and manufacturing process (12nm quad-core A53), but seems it uses a Mali GPU instead of PowerVR, and actually has bluetooth5.0 instead of 4.2! The 2019 HD10 soc was pretty much identical to the P60, but I'm glad that this one is a bit more modern than the P22 ^^

Amazon Fire is much worst but 4x lower the price made to stream music and video in addition to voice assistance control for $89. No one is paying a $350 tablet to do those tasks. They expected a tablet at that price to have a capable CPU and screen which was not delivered.

                        Anonymous, 13 May 2020why is the "Kids Edition" the most expensive model, lolI bought my two year old and my 10 year old a fire tablet for Christmas. I paid maybe $30 extra for the kids edition for tne two year old. The kids edition comes with a bumper, extended warranty and the freetime subscription. I think the freetime subscription is $5 a month per device. It’s nice having all the games and books. It was a bargain during Christmas.

                          Everyone trashes the Tab S6 Lite because it is weak and almost cannot run Fortnite but to be honest Amazon tablets are much worse, you cannot run almost any more demanding game on it, not just Fortnite. Just wait for it, even this new Fire HD 8 Plus will not be able to run it and yet everyone will praise it. Yes, this tablet is not for gaming but Tab S6 Lite is not for gaming either and yet in reviews everyone shows how it runs Fornite -_-

My daughter broke hers and Amazon just replaced it instantly as promised

                                Wireless charging for a tablet. When was the last time anyone heard about that? And for dirt cheap too!

                                  Finally a major update to the fire tablets. I will definitely get one, my past 2 have served me well.

                                        Very impressive for the price. It support all major streaming apps,. It must be widevine L1 certified unlike some china made phone that cost 4,5x time but can't watch HD video lol. On plus side, there are no Google apps, so no more Google spying haha. I might get one for comic reading, only $109.
