Amazon Fire HD 8 2022 review: a cheap tablet for basic tasks

 

This Amazon Fire HD 8 review 2022 asks whether this sub-$100 device is a fantastic bargain or a false economy

Bright and colourful screen ; Easy to use ; Strong battery life ; Low price

Can't run Google apps ; Occasionally runs slowly ; Low-res camera

If you want a tablet for basic tasks, such as watching Netflix, listening to music, using Alexa, making video calls, checking emails or using social media, this will do the job well. You'll have to compromise a little on video resolution and processing...

Amazon Fire HD 8 (2022) review: Still the budget tablet to buy

 

Amazon's revamped Fire HD 8 has been upgraded with a new processor for 2022. Here's our full review.

Really easy to set up and use ; Access to popular streaming services ; Very affordable ; Good battery life

Could do with more internal storage ; Not super speedy performance ; No biometric authentication

The new Fire HD 8's biggest strength is the same thing that has consistently made the Amazon Fire tablet so appealing in the past: it's an affordable and easy way to get access to movies, TV shows and games.

Amazon Fire HD 8 (2022) review: The best £100 tablet? | Expert Reviews

 

Despite a minor price increase, the Amazon Fire HD 8 (2022) is still the best-value tablet in its class

Still unbeatable value ; Decent performance increase ; Solid battery life upgrade

Mediocre display ; Fire OS continues to frustrate ; £10 more expensive than previous version

There are plenty of things about the Fire HD 8 (2022) that can be counted as negatives – Fire OS is still unnecessarily restrictive, the screen feels outdated and the charging speeds remain sluggish – but even with these flaws, you’ll struggle to find...

Amazon Fire HD 8 (2022) review: Spot the difference?

 

The 2022 Fire HD 8 is much more "same as ever" than "all new". It has decent battery life and built-in Alexa, but the same drawbacks as its predecessor.

Still one of the cheapest tablets around ; Hands-free Alexa ; Headphone jack & expandable storage

Performance isn’t really any better ; Limited selection of apps ; Awful cameras

If you’re a Prime subscriber and won’t miss Google apps you might be able to live with the Fire HD 8’s limited selection of apps, mediocre performance and terrible cameras. Most people will be better off with a slightly more expensive Android tablet,...

Amazon Fire HD 8 Kids (2022 Release) Review

 

Rugged case ; Strong parental controls ; Good battery life ; Vibrant screen

Sluggish performance ; $10 more than the previous model ; Limited app selection

The Amazon Fire HD 8 Kids is a good tablet for young children, with reasonable performance and screen quality for the price.

Amazon Fire HD 8 (2022) Review: Stuck In The Middle - SlashGear

 

The 2022 version of the Amazon Fire HD 8 isn't all that different from its predecessor. That includes the less-than-optimal app store and ads aplenty.

Light and easy to carry ; Good at content consumption ; Good battery life

Overpriced ; Slow performance ; Barebones Appstore

Amazon Fire HD 8 (2022) review

 

Amazon’s latest Fire HD 8 revision doesn’t make massive changes, but this capable-enough tablet still feels like a steal at $100.

Still, you can’t beat this bargain. The Fire HD 8 does most of what it needs to do at a fraction of the cost of an iPad, and it’s markedly better than Amazon’s clunkier Fire 7 at $60. If you’re looking for a solid, compact tablet that won’t break the...

Amazon Fire HD 8 (2022) review: The new, best cheap Android tablet

 

Amazon's well-known for its plethora of cheap Android tablets, and we would argue that the Fire HD 8 (2022) has supplanted the Fire 7 as the best of them all. Move over Fire 7, the Fire HD 8 is here.
