Fussy and not for the older generation, Can't even understand how to register the Fire. I'm returning it. | Setup |
Beware it lasted 1 month., I use my tablet exclusively for reading my Kindle books. Just after the return window closed the tablet stopped charging. If you purchase this tablet I recommend purchasing the extended warranty. Very expensive reading experience. Very, very disappointed. | Battery |
Glitchy freezes, This tablet freezes frequently will not load some apps. It will not recognize the scan-disc 128gb disc that was purchased with it, giving an error message frequently until disc was removed. We own multiple tablets and this one seems to be junk. | SD |
I recently purchased one and the screen don't don't work., The screen don't work. And it has been recently purchased. How can I return it? Thanks. | Battery |
Not Worth The Money, First and Last Amazon Tablet I'll ever Own, it's the Worst going Battery Life Sucks, Apps Suck you need to Buy Everything. Android Tablets are Better and Google Play has all the Apps you need for Free. | Apps |
Screen has went bad at 4 days, Only had the tablet 4 days, used for maybe a couple hours total, and the screen has already gone out. | Battery |
Awful tablet for 2022, I honestly can't decide if this is worth keeping considering I only paid $64. This would be a quality tablet in 2016, but definitely not 2022. I was excited when I saw the price point and the “30% faster” headline but this is anything but “fast”. Fire HD8 plus should not be laggy, or slow all th... | FOS |
Garbage, Device won't turn on or charge after 2 days of use. All information is saved inside the tablet and cannot be reset and amazing expects it returned. Garbage product. | Battery |
Fire OS 8 does not support Fire TV, This is my 4th or 5th kindle. I'm generally happy with them until I lose them or crack the screen. Unfortunately, my newest kindle, 12th gen, runs Fire OS 8 and does not support Fire TV which is a significant portion of what I use my kindle for. Support says this will be fixed by a ... | Apps |
Worthless Waste of Time and Money, I originally bought this tablet thinking Amazon has got to be better than some knock off right? Wow was I wrong. The app store has NOTHING. Literally this is only good enough to be a kids tablet. Don't even think about using it for anything relevant! No cricuit design space. No decen... | Apps |
you get what you pay for, This is a good tablet for $50 if that's what you want to spend. You get what you pay for. I had mine for about an hour before I'm sending it back. screen was glitching, & apps freezing. Several of my most used apps that i went for right away aren't available. probably ok for movies or kids ga... | Apps |
Shuts itself down constantly, I bought this tablet at Best Buy in August. It has begun to shut itself down over and over. It is far too frustrating to express. I have had Kindle Fire tablets for years. This was never a problem with the others. Fixes found in the Internet don't work. | Battery |
This can't be right!, ISSUE #1. The charge cable won't stay in at the tablet end. Can't put it in so it stays and charges. Keeps falling out. ISSUE #2. The slot for the SIM card, card won't go in all the way. There is a very tiny latch where the SIM card goes in, at the top of the Kindle. I guess, when closed, it push... | Charging |
travel back in time to 2005, Terrible interface and App Store is a joke. Can't watch half of the videos and most apps don't work like YouTube TV. Feels like this product was made in 2005. Such a joke. | Apps |
Slowest Kindle fire yet, I bought this on sale specifically to play games on. It boasts a 30% faster processor and yet every game force closes. | FOS |
Garbage- Wi-Fi connects and disconnects, The Is tablet will not stay connected to Wi-Fi… not a router or signal issue as the other 15+ Wi-Fi devices in my house work just fine | WiFi |
Not impressed, I bought this to replace my nearly 10-year old Kindle Fire HD but this device is unfathomably slower than my old device and the build quality feels significantly cheaper. You get what you paid for, I guess, but again I'm pretty sure I paid the same or less for my old Fire HD which is still somehow a bet... | FOS |
Good deal, but peace of CRAP!, It was a good deal, because it worked for a few months. But not even a year after I bought it it started glitching and freezing up a lot. It wouldn't let me on any games. I tried everything but it wouldn't work so I just decided to stop using it. it turned into a piece of crap. | FOS |
Plenty of issues with OS since startup., The tablet arrived in great condition, might as well say new. My complaint, however, is that there are several issues I've been ironing out. First, when I attempted to create a profile for my mother whom this is intended for, it caused numerous problems. I am unable to make her... | FOS |
Defective will not charge, Had one day will not charge sending it back | Battery |
Worst, This Hass to be the worst tablet ever!! I have the 2020 model and it is perfect. I've gone through two of these and both of them just keep shutting down through my games. My purpose for purchase was to play a game and I can't even do that because it just keeps shutting down in the middle of my game. I play the ... | FOS |
Pretty bad, There are SOOO many apps you'll never use that you can never get rid of unless you plug your tablet into your computer. Some settings just freeze, some apps just freeze. This is a pretty garbage experience, I'm blown away that people are giving these positive reviews. | FOS |
Still trash…, I've had 5 fire tablets. All that I call my “s*** tab” I really only use these when traveling/reading or needing a break from my Apple notification. If you don't care about screen quality, feel, Battery life this thing is fine. It's cheap doesn't break to easily and works. If you actually want a tablet f... | FOS |
A device with ads, Picked up for kids. While setting up the Home Screen is just click bait with ads. Lock Screen even puts trailers on it. Apple while expensive at least makes a device that does not slam you with ads. Amazon contacted me and was helpful with getting rid of recommended content. If they didn't help it w... | Ads |
Trash. Email app *doesn't work with Gmail*, I bought this to replace my Fire HD 10 that's a few years old because I wanted a newer device that could use a USB-C port. It came already registered (nice!) and I started setting it up. The first thing? Set up the Mail app. I've been using the Mail app on Fire tablets since... | FOS |
Poor quality, It is frozen screen stripes | Display |
It annoys me more than it does anything else., This thing is very sluggish. When I turn the screen on it acts like a pc from the mid 2000's where you have to wait for the ancient hard drives to spin up. It's kind of like using an elderly person to watch content on. I bought it mainly to watch videos on while I have do... | FOS |

Long buyer, no more!!, I have bought these tablets over and over for my kiddos over the years who have broken them (many times not their fault) I decided to buy the newer versions since it was 50% off, and wanted them to be colors other than the same black ones they've had. I purchased a denim and a lavender color. BO... | Battery |

Don't waste your time, I wanted a tablet mostly for the Kindle app so I purchased the refurbished Fire HD hoping to save some money. At first glance the tablet looked brand new so I had high hopes that it would work out for me. After navigating through the device I really did not like the overall format, and found it ... | Battery |
Not happy with the last two kindle fires that I have gotten., This kindle fire jumps around from page to page. That is what the last one was doing which is why I wanted a new one. I can be reading something and it will go to another place. I shut it down like you are supposed to do but it still does the same thing. Wh... | FOS |
Unbelievable, I bought this for my 10 year old son. This is a piece of crap!!! Touchscreen barely works. I'll never buy anything like this again from Amazon. I wasted my money. The screen goes dark while you're trying to use it. I have. It set for 30 minutes to go off. Extremely BAD product. . | FOS |
can't play games on it., no USB port. unable to play most games on it. It's not for adults... Maybe for a kid?? | Apps |
Was great now frustrating, The reason I'm giving this only 2 stars is I've only had this for 8 months, it took a little while but I got used to it then it decided to start randomly turning itself off, so frustrating!!! Once it turns off it's hard to get it to turn back on immediately. The screen quality, battery life ... | Battery |
No Help, Just took it out of the box. Was looking for a user guide or some form of help getting started. The link to the user guide didn't work. Fire Tablet Help: User Guide: "We're sorry.

DO NOT BUY, You cannot turn off sleep on thr tablet. You can only select between 15 seconds and 30 minutes. . good luck watching or listening to anything over 30 minutes. you have to touch the screen or it will shut off. Worst tablet I have ever owned. | FOS |

SO DISAPPOINTED, I have owned an Amazon tablet for years. I've liked them so much that I have given them as gifts as well. So for the first time ever my not too old Amazon Fire HD 10 crashed, died, whatever but it stopped working. I traded it in and bought the new Amazon Fire 10. I've never ever been more disappointed... | Ads |
A horrible product, This is really a terrible product.

Needs more ram. 3 gigs is half of what it needs. Should have at least 6 gigs, Word well. Just hate the fact i could have gotten it brand new just a week or two later.

Not an iPad, Compared to an iPad it's garbage | HW |

Defective screen, I just got this today. I am not sure but I think my screen has a defect. The bottom 1 1/2 inches has tiny lines that flicker. Its hard to see to type words because the last row is covered by these lines. | Display |
Kindle died today!, The device worked great until today Nov. 19. How convenient it dies just past the return date! I am so sick of Amazon junk being dumped on loyal customers! | Battery |
Consistent problems with this., It's nice when it works as intended, but it has weird issues. On two separate occasions, movies I've downloaded have been mysteriously wiped out.

Cheap during Black Friday, good for browsing, but that's all it has going for it, My old 2018 Fire 10 was losing its ability to charge, so, with Black Friday, I got another Fire.

My expectations were low, but holy crap, I wasn't expecting a great screen for the price, but I can honestly say that this is the worst screen I've seen in over 15 years.

Most disappointing purchase ever!, I have had an e reader for 8 years and it recently died so I was looking for a new one. I saw this and thought it would be a great replacement. I was wrong.

Great Amazon Advertising Device, If you want to play games and listen to books it's probably ok but it's main function is to sell amazon apps and games. First screen you see when you turn it on is a game ad. Playing a game? Good luck, there are so many ads it takes forever. Most games require tokens, yep, you have to ... | Ads |

Kept going back to lock screen and doesn't have as many apps for my son as the Galaxy, I have no complaints with the screen, battery, or storage. It's with the tablet itself.

What SD Card?, I loved my old Kindle but it's screen was starting to flicker so I thought "50% off? Why not upgrade?" The Kindle itself is okay. Original internal memory sucks.

So slow., I had this for all of a day before returning. I wanted a tablet to stream movies and videos, but didn't want to spend hundreds on an iPad.

Can't even download my game, They were supposed to load my account on this tablet. Nothing was set up! I have been trying for 4 hours to get my game on, but it keeps saying it is being prepared. It is slow, I thought it would be better than my 8-inch, but so far it is a dud! | Apps |
Just another Amazon product made to sell you stuff, Most apps I use on phone so I thought a tablet would be better. Well it only works for Amazon apps. Which I found out that it wasn't for 99% of apps I use. So I hung it in kitchen wall for cooking. | Apps |
Fire HD 10, This is not worth the money. Nothing more than an overpriced book. Has nothing to offer even internet capabilities. Very constrained. | WiFi |

Appstore is terrible and tablet is nerfed compared to standard Android OS, The Appstore barely has any apps compared to the standard Google Play store. You can side load that, but it's tricky and annoying to get working properly. Honestly a standard Android tablet would be way better. | Apps |
