A disappointing purchase, I got this tablet refurbished and a week into getting it problems with it started to pop up. At random it would shut off. Then it became sluggish when typing for a while. Then it begain to show false battery percentages. Now it takes over a day to recharge the batteries! I will never buy a ... | Battery |
Dropped once and screen shattered, 2 year old dropped it maybe 2-3 feet above ground and it completely shattered. It's our first Amazon tablet but the low level of durability compared to iPads is quite the let down. Otherwise the tablet was great. | Display |
Forced update from Amazon let me unable to connect to WiFi., I guess I didn't read the details, I assumed this would be loaded with Android. Boy was I wrong!

Upgrade? The 10th gen HD 8 plus was better, Don't waste your cash. Nothing new here on the 12th gen HD 8 Plus. Well, unless you want to mention the fact that Amazon moved the cover screen on/off sensor. It was on the righthand side of the screen on every Fire tablet until this one. Now, it's on the left. That means ... | HW |
This thing died 4 months after I bought it..., The sound died down to a whisper a month after I got it. Then yesterday is just died.

Failing after 2 months, Got it back Nov 22 as a gift, as of Feb 15th 2023, it's already failing. The screen is lining pretty hard and getting hard to see or use.

Fire HD tablets, UPDATE: Amazon contacted me after my previous review was posted. All i can say is the customer service representative solved my MAJOR problem. Ive decided to keep the tablets because kids are even happier with the tablet now that its been set up as a kids tablet. Thanks Amazon Previous: Dont like th... | Apps |
Disconnects from wifi, Worked fine at first. After about a month of use it keeps disconnecting from Wi-Fi. Very frustrating when you buy a brand new tablet and it won't connect to the Wi-Fi. Basically just a paper weight at this point. Very dissatisfied. -5 stars if I could. | WiFi |

Not with it, It had been a long time since I owned a kindle, thought it give it a go again for something not as heavy while playing games in bed or reading. I'm only using for these 2 tasks, no email, no work stuff not even video. It can't even load its own games and run them properly from the Amazon Appstore. They ... | Apps |
Dead after 30 days. Amazon junk, Tablet reboots every minute. Only recourse is to pay 15 dollars for a refurb or send it in for repair and still get a refurb. Shoddy product. Worse warranty. | Battery |
Absolute trash once warranty expires, Only a couple months after the end of the warranty period, the tablet no longer charges. We tried everything. Now I'm just trying to prevent others from making the same big mistake. Take my advice and find a different tablet without the internal clock tied to the end of the warr... | Battery |
Sorry I got it, The screen is dark, can't get it registered, don't understand why I need to, it's my third one! May need to send it back. | Setup |
Too small, Too small in size and font | FOS |
POOR VOLUME and BATTERY LIFE, I have purchased 3 of these, and I keep hoping the volume improves, however each time I'm disappointed. If you don't purchase an additional blue tooth speaker or ear buds, you can count on poor, very poor volume. Seems they should be able to improve this. this is the last one I'll purch... | HW |
Advertisement Machine for Amazon, The tablet is so Amazon can advertise directly, To bad, The tablet itself is not that bad. The software is atrocious. You can't do anything Amazon doesn't want you to do, A form of control. | Ads |

Fire10 Plus, I bought the fire 10 plus for my birthday in summertime. It worked great until the screen shattered, Amazon replaced it with a "new" one. When I got it, most of the apps were outdated and I had to uninstall and reinstall them. This new one lags and freezes a lot. I have to restart it constantly in order... | FOS |
Not intuitive and too many ads, We got this for our son to play games and access certain websites. I liked that you could block specific websites (like youtube) but set up others for one-touch access (like chesskid). Unfortunately, we could not access dreambox and other learning apps that we wanted him to be able to... | Ads |
Faulty, Within the same day of taking the tablet out the box in a short amount of time lines appeared in the screen, and it would not charge, because apparently there was water in the device, which I found to be impossible because this was supposed to be brand new. Now I have to take my child's Christmas present awa... | Display |
Get what you pay for..., $75 worth of slow, glitchy, poor performance tablet. Its like stepping back 10 years in performance versus an iPad. No "competing" shoppong apps are alowed in the kindle app store, which is understandable as it is an Amazon product, but still annoying. chrome is very glitchy and still non us... | FOS |
DO NOT BUY!!!, I had this for short period of time and it stopped charging. Amazon DIDNT HELP and told me to contact the manufacturer like wtf...it's an AMAZON TABLET!! They won't even refund me like this is total bs | Battery |
Is it worth the hassle to return, Screen saver is an advertisement that you can't turn off. To pair a Bluetooth speaker you must first turn on app you want to use every time, it does not auto connect to prior paired devices. Awful awful awful. | Ads |
Kindle, My kindle will cut off and go back to start page. This is very frustrating. I also talk to tech they said to do a factory reset. He didn't work. Not worth the money | FOS |
This thing sucks, After an hour of use i disconnected from the wifi and i was never able to connect to another network. The worst product i ever bought | WiFi |
Not worth the money, I just wanted something affordable to be able to stream my shows while I'm laying in bed. Everything is so laggy. I can't watch things on it, and that's the whole reason I got it. | FOS |
Terrible refund process!!, The tablet wasn't for my taste and was freezing so I returned it. Still have not received my refund. They received it. . Said 7 business days I'll get it... Haven't got it I'll pause on my purchases until I get my refund but thank you | FOS |
Unable to turn on after only a few months, I enjoy the Kindle Fire when it works, however, over the past couple of weeks, I am unable to turn on the power for days at a time. It is fully charged.

Glitchy.Stop and go touchy., It was incompatible with any other device or app I currently use.Wonderful for kids or folks who enjoy movies. | Apps |
Pop up ads, I am not able to use this kindle to go to the web because so many different websites pop up and it takes so many tries. I have been a customer for so long and I am extremely disappointed in Amazon | Ads |
Spend a little more to get a better product, It's ok when everything works but I have problems connecting to wi-fi, with the device recognizing my SD card, and with Disney plus being unusable because it is somewhere in download limbo. Luckily I'm not the only one having these problems with the device so there is Int... | WiFi |

Huge disappointment, I use my 8" Kindle tablet for reading books and internet. I always want to get the new version when they come available. I received the 2022 version for Christmas and set it up the day it arrived. When reading the news, it would restart itself. I called customer support and was told to turn it o... | FOS |

Does not work, will not turn on and was freezing up., Only had for a month. Got it for Christmas for my little girl and will not turn on. | Battery |
Amazon Fire tablets are now poorly made., I have 6 fire tablets in our home the first four were bought years ago and the last two in the past year. Older ones are great! Newer ones are junk. Screen jumps to different screens without anyone in the room! How I don't know but I have seen it. Also Amazon added a horribl... | FOS |
Charging, We have 3 , and they all have problems with the charging ports , they have you send it back to be fixed and don't fix them , I'm pretty sure they just sent a different one with the same problem. | Charging |
9.4gb or system files???, I purchased this version as a replacement for my daughters old tablet. It says that it's 10g but she constantly gets storage full notifications. When I checked 9.4g is reserved for system files?!! What can possibly entertain a 4 year old with 1gb. Will be returning. | HW |
Disappointed, This thing literally glitches more than it works. Money wasted | FOS |
Straight trash, Soooo much lag it's ridiculous! I type something and I can finish typing before the first letter even pops up, then it slowly populates the screen with the text like a ghost is typing it out. Most apps crash and I think the ONLY thing that works on it is Amazon. For some reason, the Amazon app is the... | FOS |
Useless for surfing web, My old kindle got to be glitchy so I thought I would replace it. This new one is ok for reading books but if used for the internet it constantly crashes and restarts. It is slow and very frustrating. Guess I will have to get an iPad or something because kindles have gotten worse not better. | FOS |
No Hoopla support, 12th generation, does not support library APP Hoopla | Apps |

Not for baseball fans, Two hours after receiving the Fire HD8, I tried to download the MLB.TV app and found that the app is not available, despite its being listed in the Amazon appstore list.

Its been 16 days since Amazon received the tablet back. I was told I would get my gift card balance restored in 7 business days... | Display |
Not good for travel, The Amazon Kindle Fire can't be used when it's not connected to wifi. I specifically bought this product so that I can read while on my lunch break, or while I'm at my daughter's track practice, but I can't even do that. This should be written in the description so customers could make an inform... | WiFi |
RETURN NIGHTMARE, Purchased this Fire HD 10 plus tablet for my mom in assisted living. As far as the product, it worked well with the exception of the volume which was nearly inaudible for Alexa to phone calls (which was the main reason for the purchase). Tried everything through customer service to fix the problem ... | HW |
ZERO STARS, [[VIDEOID:3c014429b14bb34f3916565c89589fef]] I wanted to use a tablet instead of just my phone to download my GoPro 360 videos, key frame them and then use youcut video software. Both apps are available on Google Play Store. But this tablet will not allow you to download the Google play store or the gopr... | Apps |
Flawed case design, Kindle randomly turned to black screen while I was actively using it. Design of kindle means that the cover designed to accommodate placement of front facing camera & speakers has to open backwards... like opening a book from the end of the book instead of the beginning. I might have forced mysel... | HW |
Stopped charging and turning on, Got this for my daughter for Christmas since the screen on her old one was cracked. Worked great the few times she used it, and then it just stopped charging, and won't turn on. Tried multiple different chargers, and to reset it. | Battery |

Horrible, So little storage space! Literally have 1 app on it and I cannot even update it due to "no storage" had to buy an sd card for extra space & tablet won't accept it because it's "not compatible". TRASH! DONT BUY! | HW |
Do not buy, Worse tablet ever!! You must have a Amazon acct with a credit card on file in order to register. Now I have a tablet tht I can't use. Tech support kept transferring me for three hrs. | FOS |
all the games have ads. there's no getting away from it., I bought this for my 98 year old mother to play solitaire on. I bought it for the long battery life, which is true. But every solitaire package I can get has a ad that pops up each time she loses and starts a new game, and its damn frustrating for her. I call... | Ads |
Absolute garbage product, The ads are just annoying garbage that will never be bought from. Just another way for Amazon to rip off its customers | Ads |
Save your money., This tablet stopped working after only a few months. I tried all troubleshooting but it would no longer charge. | Battery |
They Didn't Serve, In less than 1 month, the charging pin was damaged to both tablets and I filed a complaint and they never listened to me or paid attention.

3 Minutes of Ads!, I didn't realize I was buying an ad-based tablet but I figured, OK, whatever. But it turns out there are 3 minutes of ads for kiddie games every time you turn it on.

Libby App doesn't work for kids, I bought this for my daughter so she could read.

Piece of junk, This the second one that I have had in less than two months. The first one shutdown when the battery got to fifty percent charge. I had to plug it in to get it to reboot.
