    Digital Storage Capacity: 32 GBOffer Type: Lockscreen Ad-SupportedColor: GrayStyle: Fire HD 8 PlusVerified Purchase
    I already own multiple iPads and higher end Android tablets. Why did I end up buying the Amazon Fire HD 8 Plus and give it a 5 star rating?

    This tablet simply exceeded my expectations.

    I was in the market for a smaller lighter tablet to read books and manga. As good as my other tablets are, they are not easy to hold for multiple hours of reading. Holding a metal and glass tablet with a 10.6 inch screen gets tiring over a few hours.

    The screen on this Amazon tablet is more than adequate for reading books from the Kindle app. This is near perfect for manga since the screen size is similar to paper manga. Images and text appear nice and clear.

    Installing the Google Play store was easy. I need apps like Google Home, Keep, Drive, and GBoard. YouTube works just fine.

    My use case is rather easy to handle. I let my kids test this tablet. If it can keep up with my kids, then it can handle what I need a tablet for.

    When I handed this off to my kids, they just went overboard on games. They couldn't find all of the games they play in the Amazon shop store, so I'll be referencing some games from the Google Play store.

    Roblox is a popular app for my kids. The overall performance was good. It really depends on which game they are playing from Roblox. Piggy ran well. Broken Bones was very jittery but playable. Yeet-a-friend plays well if you disable some of the extra options for the game itself. Cookie Swirl C World is playable, but was not the smoothest. Spray Paint played well. Spider also played well. Random OBEEs splayed well.

    Here is the pattern I noticed with Roblox. If the game supports a large lobby, then there is a greater chance that the game runs a bit slower. I noticed that the large lobby games are running a bit slow, but my kids didn't care. They were still happily playing and winning without issues.

    Granny Chapter 1 and 2 play well.

    Gacha Life and Gacha Club ran well.

    Among Us ran well.

    They were playing more games, but I couldn't keep up with their long list.

    Overall, this tablet can run games well enough. It won't be as smooth as a higher end tablet, but I didn't notice any random crashes. My kids would have definitely complained about it. If you are considering this tablet for your kids to play games, you need to consider which games they are playing.

    Surprisingly TikTok worked well. When swiping through videos, it may take a second to load before it plays. I don't notice that issue on my other tablets. After the initial pause, the videos play well.

    Since reading and productivity were my main concern, it's a 5 star tablet for the price. Games are just the icing on the cake. Since I don't play them often it would not have been a concern for me. Now I have another device to hand off to my kids in those just in case situations.

    Digital Storage Capacity: 32 GBOffer Type: Lockscreen Ad-SupportedColor: GrayStyle: Fire HD 8 PlusVerified Purchase
    I have had this tablet for about a year now. At first their were some growing pains due to the UI that Amazon installs over stock android. Lack of app compatibility even though the specs support it and just the outright absence of apps that Amazon doesn't want us to have. I considered rooting it with stock android but didn't want to violate the warranty/user agreement. After some deep diving on reddit I found work around for 90% of the troubles I had after receiving it. Once I did that I purchased some official accessories made for it such as the case cover, the dock that charges it wirelessly and turns it into an echo show, and a screen protector. Adding all that to the work around and it has turned into my ideal 8in tablet. Perfect for email, web browsing, reading, music, light gaming, and streaming services. It has held up well over the almost year I have had it. No significant damage after a couple drops, even when I didn't have a case. Now with all the ad ons I got it made what I paid for it a steal. Purchased during one of Amazon's!many sale events. If your like me and want a jack of all trades tablet that does a lot very well with only minor annoyances this is a perfect choice for kids or adults/elderly folks. I tried the newer 10in hd fire tablet and immediately gave it to my brother and went back to using this. By the way battery life is phenomenal. Just !y rather lengthy 2 cents. I normally don't gush over stuff in reviews but this is a fantastic device...also pay for the one without ads. It's worth every penny and IRS only an extra 15 bucks...
