NTG’s Take:
The Amazon Fire HD 8 Tablet doesn’t have a lot of the bells and whistles that the tablets from Samsung and Apple have, but it does offer a smaller size and much lower price. It of course integrates very easily with anything Amazon related, and most other apps. If you have a larger screen phone, bringing one of these may be a bit redundant though.
Fire HD 8 features a 1280 x 800 high-definition display with over a million pixels (189 ppi) and a bright, vivid picture. Enjoy movies and games in a crisp, clear HD resolution, with less glare and more brightness thanks to a stunning IPS (in-plane-switching) LCD display.
With 2x more internal storage than Fire 7, Fire HD 8 comes standard with 16 GB. Expand your tablet’s storage by up to 400 GB using a microSD card, and keep photos, movies, and compatible games and apps with you. Plus enjoy free unlimited cloud storage for all your Amazon content and photos taken with your Fire tablet.
