  • The extra RAM is essential but there are significant problems with the design
Digital Storage Capacity: 32 GB Offer Type: Without Lockscreen Ads Color: Slate Style: Fire HD 8 Plus
Good: Inexpensive, high battery life, adequate performance, USB-C charging Bad: Hard to hold, thick and heavy for screen size, unacceptable button placement, wireless charging turns device into echo show with ads - a feature I would pay to remove! I have owned three Fire HD 8 tablets and each generation has gotten more annoying to use because of compromises in the design intended to make them less expensive to produce. I am extremely happy that Amazon has decided to market this upgraded version with 3 GB of RAM because that is now the minimum needed to run Android or Fire OS smoothly. The 1.5 that came with my second Fire HD8 never worked - it just isn't enough anymore, whereas the 2 GB that came with my first HD8 waa plenty for that era. I think Amazon was foolish to make that change on the base HD8 because of the added frustration to the end user, but at least there is a choice to upgrade to this "plus" version with its frustration-free 3GB setup. Is the experience as smooth or responsive as even the least expensive iPad? Certainly not. But those start at $400 and this was closer to $120. What I really want is a $185 option that combines this specification or better with the physical design and form factor of earlier Fire HD8 generations, because when it comes to physical design this generation of Fire tablets is extremely annoying! I am sure the changes are all designed to minimize cost but please find a better to do that than to put the power and volume buttons so close together with such a similar size and feel. It is far too easy to press the power button to begin with because it protrudes to far from the case and doesn't have a very strong spring, but when you put it right next to an identical feeling volume button that is just unacceptable! There is good reason why almost every phone and tablet in the world has these buttons in different locations ( often opposite sides or ends of the phone.) I happen to believe that it probably would work to have both buttons on the same end as the charger and headphone jack but not if you put them this close together, and give them exactly the same tactile feel and the same overly light spring rate. Please at least recess the power button, use a different surface texture and a stiffer spring. Or better yet move it to the opposite corner where the headphone Jack is now. And for users with the current, unfortunate design you could eliminate the worst effects with a software update. Just modify the software to require a longer press of the power key before it shuts down the display. If a one-second press were required then it would eliminate 90% of the instances when I have accidentally shut down the screen trying n to change the volume. With no security options other than a pass code, tis means I almost every time I try to adjust the volume while listening to a podcast or watching a video I have that experience interupted and I end up having to enter my pass code and physically restart what I was listening to just because I tried to adjust the volume. This design choice just doesn't work. Fix it, Amazon! Another cost saving design choice is that Amazon has allowed the HD8 tablets to get thicker each generation, which I agree is probably reasonable. But between the thicker body and the much smaller bezel compared to previous generations, I am finding this version much more difficult to hold. I actually think the sensitivity of the screen might also be a factor because if I put fingers on the front edge if the glass at all this registers as a touch. So to prevent that my fingers must stay on the plastic, and there just isn't enough plastic on the front bit the tablet to get a good grip. That gives the impression of the tablet being heavier and more awkward than it probably is. And again this could be an issue that might be addressed with software if the screen sensitivity could be decreased a bit to reject unintended "touches" at the edges ( in this case beyond the edges). of the screen. My final gripe is going to be about the behavior of the device when put on a wireless charger. Oddly, when I want to use a wireless charger my intention is to actually charge the device. It is not to turn my tablet, for which I paid extra to have ads removed from the lock screen into an always on Echo Show with advertising! I'm sure there are some people who might actually use an Echo Show and for them this must feel like an amazing value. Like getting a second device for free. But I just want it gone. I would never willingly use, much less purchase, an Echo Show, particularly one with a working camera, because I can't accept the privacy and security risk. And I certainly don't want another device showering.me with advertising. That said, I don't object at all into Amazon including the Echo Show functionality with the tablet, or even having it run by default when you connect it to a wireless charger, but there needs to be clear documentation about how to control this feature and how to turn it off both permanently and temporarily. Without that I am actually losing two features I specifically paid for on this tablet, wireless charging and freedom from advertising. Please do a much better job explaining this feature and how to control it as you update the device software ... show more

  • Well, it's not an iPad...
Digital Storage Capacity: 32 GB Offer Type: Lockscreen Ad-Supported Color: Slate Style: Fire HD 8 Plus
...but it doesn't have to be one. Yes, I know, I'm comparing a $100+ device with one that at minimum costs several times more, but that's unavoidable. iPads are, after all, the gold standard of tablets, regardless of what those who stand firmly on the Android side of the fence think. Having said all of that, not everyone needs an iPad. For what it is, the Fire HD 8 Plus is a pretty decent device that will serve your content-consuming needs quite well for the price. In fact, you'll be hard-pressed to find any other Android-based tablet that even comes close to its functionality at the same price point. So, a bit about the specifics. This device runs Amazon's Fire OS, which is basically a reskinned version of Android, minus the Google apps that come on most Android-based devices. If this is an immediate turn-off, fear not - installing the Google apps is a relatively simple procedure that takes no more than a few minutes. Even disregarding them, this tablet offers a surprising amount of functionality for one of its price point. The Amazon App Store has a decent selection of apps available, although I've noticed that a few of them seem to not be updated as often as their counterparts through Google Play. Again, though, if this is an issue for anyone, it's easily fixed. Needless to say, app availability isn't going to be a problem for most people. Moving on, we have the specific focus of the device, which is consuming content, or more specifically, letting you line Lex Luthor's pockets. Fire OS is certain to take every opportunity available to shove content recommendations down your throat, which isn't necessarily a bad thing if you're looking for good stuff to read or watch. Fire OS includes a recommendations section at the top of the home screen that gives you recommendations based on your personal info and privacy that you signed away by using Amazon's ecosystem. For voracious readers, this can be a big boon, especially for those who like to discover new stuff to read. For others, it can be an annoyance, although really it's not so bad as it doesn't get in the way of anything. So, let's talk about the hardware real quick. The overall design of this device is decent, especially considering the low price. The casing is all plastic, yet not overly cheap feeling. In fact, it feels surprisingly rugged yet is quite light, meaning that you won't be straining your hand or tiring your arm during long reading sessions. The 8-inch screen seems to be the perfect size for reading ebooks. In fact, I much prefer it to the 10-inch model for this very purpose, as the latter seems to be a bit too unwieldy for my tastes. The screen quality, while nothing to write home about, is quite sufficient and doesn't detract from the quality of your time spent using the device. Still though, unless you're a stickler for color content, those who prefer reading bog-standard books may prefer a Kindle or other e-ink based device. But really, that's all just a matter of personal preference. The internals of this tablet are decent, again, for its price point. The key here, though, is the price point. You're not going to get an extremely powerful device for just over $100, so don't expect this tablet to expand your productivity options or to give you a riveting gaming experience. As an example of the latter, you won't be able to run Genshin Impact or Diablo Immortal on this device, as the hardware just isn't up to the task. For lighter games, though, it'll work fine. Just don't expect miracles. Overall, there's more I could nitpick here, such as the typical laggy experience that cheaper devices suffer from when burdened by an Android-based OS, but I think most people can live with such things when it comes to low-end hardware. For what the Fire HD 8 plus promises, you'll get a pretty decent content-consuming experience. ... show more
