For books it's goid Considering it's supposed to be a slight upgrade from the 10th gen HD 8, I personally don't really feel it is. Also didn't see I got "a discount" because it would come with ads that cost $15 to get rid of. I thought it was just on sale. Guess I didn't read the listing thoroughly enough. Not worth paying $15 to stop the ads because I probably will only use it for reading. The ads pop up when you first unlock/wake up the tablet.
If you just want to have ebooks then this will work well. If you want to be able to run any games like Roblox smoothly. I think I would have preferred an android tablet so I could actually access the Google Play store. The apps on Amazon are limited in comparison if you want other entertainment options.
The standout feature of the Amazon Fire HD 8 tablet is its brilliant 8-inch HD display.
