As simple a device to use as they come, surprisingly smooth and slick for an affordable tablet, colourful and cheery in design, Amazon FreeTime is a great way to encourage kids to learn before being rewarded with movie or TV show playback
Its chunky body won't be for everyone, Fire OS 4 is as restrictive as ever for those looking for more customisation and control, the screen has a slight yellowish tinge, 8GB version only has 4.5GB of usable storage, no microSD card slot
At £119 for the ad-supported 8GB model (if you don't want adverts then you need to pay an extra £10), the Amazon Fire HD 7 might be affordable but struggles against a Tesco 16GB tablet that's faster, has a higher resolution screen and the full Andro...
Great display, Lovely design, very portable, Amazon's services are immense
Confusing UI, Laggy performance, Have to opt into Amazon services fully to get the most out of it, No Google Play, Limited apps, Browser not up to scratch

Abstract: All of the tablets in this test run Android, but the Kindle Fire HD has the most distinctive software thanks to Amazon's reskinned version of the Google OS.The revised software is designed to help users consume and purchase Amazon content. A horizontally ...
Abstract: Two of the most popular budget 7-inch Android tablets are the Amazon Kindle Fire HD and the Google Nexus 7 . Now that Google has released a new Google Nexus 7 2 tablet, we thought it would be a good idea to put the two tablets head-to-head with each other...
Abstract: Okay, so you might not immediately associate the Kindle with gaming and you’d be forgiven for thinking so. You are indeed correct if talking about the majority of the kindles such as the Kindle, Kindle 2, Kindle DX, Kindle Touch and Kindle Paperwhite. ...

Sharp, warm screen, Unmatched media library, Highly streamlined UI
Online stores are sluggish, Lack of core tablet functionality, Poor app store
Unusually, given its populist design philosophy, the Amazon Kindle Fire HD can be considered a niche product, aimed at those who feel intimidated by typical tablet interfaces or who just want to be left alone to their media consumption.They represent grea...
Abstract: Both the original Amazon Kindle Fire HD and the Kindle Fire HD 8.9 are grown up e-readers that are also great for watching films, browsing the web, emailing and playing games. You can install apps, listen to music, and - yes - read books. With their heav...
The Kindle Fire HD 8.9 is a great tablet, every bit as good as its Kindle Fire predecessors, and at a bargain price. It is however a unique tablet experience that's keenly focussed on the Amazon ecosystem, specialising in books and videos, something that...
