Amazon Fire 7 Kids (2022)
Relatively cheap with some great parental controls, the Amazon Fire 7 Kids (2022) tablet also has a bumper case and two-year worry-free guarantee.
Easy to carry ; Excellent warranty ; Brilliant parental controls
8-inch version better value ; Slow processor
Good value considering that you get a tablet, tough case, two-year worry free guarantee and a year’s subscription to Amazon Kids+, the Amazon Fire 7 Kids (2022) is a fun and engaging tablet for younger children. It’s extremely small, although that can...

Amazon Fire
Amazon has just released a slew of new Fire tablets. I wasn't impressed by the Fire HD 10. Nor the Fire HD 8 for that matter. The bog-standard Amazon Fire is a little different, however.
Terrific value ; Enough power to handle any Android game ; Decent battery life
Feels slow ; Basic build ; Low-resolution screen

Amazon Fire 7 review
It won't set the world on fire, but it doesn't cost the Earth either
Superb value ; Balanced and natural picture quality ; Solid wired audio
Standard-def screen isn't very sharp ; Weak mono speaker
The Amazon Fire 7 is an entry-level device with budget specs, but it gets plenty right and is far better than the price suggests

Amazon Fire tablet review: Who needs Hudl when there's this for £50?
When Amazon revealed that it was to release a tablet in its Fire range that would only cost £50 we have to admit that we didn't expect much. Previous cheap-as-chips devices have never cut the mustard. In fact, they haven't even been in the vague...
Quad-core processor and 1GB of RAM belie its price point, robust build, Fire OS 5 is a massive step forward for Amazon
Design isn’t great with its super-wide bezel, non-HD screen that isn’t as bright as some, mono speaker offers flat audio response
For its price, the Amazon Fire is an amazing tablet. Yes, there are plenty of tablets out there that are much better in almost every way, including Amazon's own Fire HD range, but the Fire is great to watch streaming video on. It's capable of playing...

Amazon Fire (2015) review - the best budget tablet you can buy
Amazon is aggressively pushing down the price of its tablets in order to undercut Android rivals. Here's our Amazon Fire review, which explains why the tablet is such a bargain at just £49.
It's certainly not perfect, and the lack of Google apps will still put some people off, but the Fire is excellent value at under £50. The latest Fire OS is so Android-like that it's easy to use, and the Fire for Kids app makes it possible to limit what...

Amazon Fire 7 (2019): You get what you pay for
The Fire 7 is the most affordable tablet in Amazon's lineup but, unfortunately, you get what you pay for. Yes, it does have hands-free Alexa and there's more storage on the newer Fire 7 than earlier models. But the performance is dismal, the display is...
Hands-free Alexa ; Affordable ; More storage than previous version
Still no Google apps ; Sluggish performance ; Short battery life ; Poor display

Amazon Fire 7 review: a budget tablet for the basics
Amazon's new Fire 7 comes with new features like USB-C support and a better battery, but its screen is still low-resolution, and it's relatively slow. It's a decent budget entertainment device if you're okay with the tradeoffs.
Very affordable ; Much better battery life ; Support for most popular apps and services ; More RAM and storage options ; USB-C support ; Headphone jack
No YouTube or Google Play Store ; Limited app selection ; Low-resolution display ; Poor video call quality and cameras ; Bad speakers ; Still pretty slow
On the other hand, if you’re, say, a movie buff on the market for an inexpensive tablet, consider buying Amazon’s $89.99 Fire 8 or $149.99 Fire 10 . They boast bigger and higher resolution screens, dual, not mono, speakers that sound better, and larger...

Amazon Fire 7 Kids Edition review: A tablet kids quickly outgrow
The 7-inch version of Amazon's kids tablet has the great software and warranty features of the 8-inch version, but falls behind in speed, screen and sound.
This very low-cost tablet includes a wealth of extras, including deep parental controls, a no-questions-asked two-year warranty and Amazon's excellent FreeTime Unlimited service. Onboard storage is expandable via microSD card.
The slightly larger, more expensive Fire HD 8 has a better display and audio, and runs faster. The Kids Edition costs significantly more than the otherwise identical standard version. There are the same app store limitations as the other Amazon Fire...
The very basic Amazon Fire 7 Kids Edition tablet has great software for kids and parents, but the slightly more expensive 8-inch version is a better all-around pick.

Amazon's new Fire 7 tablet becomes a better bargain (review)
Amazon's entry-level tablet received some modest updates, including a slightly thinner design, an extra hour of battery life and enhanced screen contrast.
The Amazon Fire 7 is inexpensive, runs Amazon's user-friendly operating system and houses a microSD card slot expandable up to 256GB. This 2017 edition is slightly lighter and battery life has been improved. Amazon Prime members can access the bevy of...
1,024x600 display is sub-HD quality and not as sharp as the display on the step-up Fire HD 8, which doesn't cost much more. To truly take advantage of what the tablet has to offer, you need an Amazon Prime membership and there's no access to Google...
Despite its performance limitations, you'll be hard-pressed to find a better entry-level tablet than the 2017 Amazon Fire 7.

Amazon Fire
The 7-inch Amazon Fire tablet doesn't offer high-end specs or the latest apps, but it's the best way to put a wealth of multimedia content at your fingertips for an almost unbelievable $50 price.
Fantastic price. Large content ecosystem. Good parental controls. Helpful technical support
Average performance. Somewhat grainy display. Lackluster camera
While most tablets in the $50 range aren't much more than glorified alarm clocks, the $49.99 Amazon Fire is a fully realized, functional slate with access to tons of content. It's good for reading books, watching movies, running apps, or just browsing...
