Amazon Fire HD 8 Review
Affordable tablet, but only for Amazon shoppers
The Amazon Fire HD 8 is a great tablet for those who are deeply invested in the Amazon ecosystem, but it's not a good choice for anyone else.
The Fire HD 8 is available in a range of colors, including black, blue, red, and yellow. It has a 1280x800 display, which is sharp and bright. The tablet is powered by a quad-core MediaTek MT8168 processor and has 1GB of RAM. This is enough power for basic tasks like browsing the web, watching videos, and playing games, but it's not going to be able to handle demanding tasks like video editing or 3D gaming.
The Fire HD 8 has 16GB of storage, which can be expanded via a microSD card. The tablet has a 5-megapixel rear camera and a 2-megapixel front camera. The rear camera is good enough for taking snapshots, but it's not going to be able to replace your dedicated camera. The front camera is good enough for video calls.
The Fire HD 8 has a battery life of up to 10 hours. This is good enough for a day of moderate use, but you'll need to charge it every night if you're a heavy user.
The Fire HD 8 runs on Amazon's Fire OS, which is based on Android. Fire OS is a heavily modified version of Android, and it's not compatible with all Android apps. However, Amazon's Appstore has a wide selection of apps available, so you should be able to find most of the apps you need.
The Amazon Fire HD 8 is a great tablet for those who are living the Amazon life. It's affordable, it has a nice display, and it has good battery life. However, it's not a good choice for anyone else. If you're not heavily invested in the Amazon ecosystem, you're better off with a different tablet.
