Amazon Fire 7 tablet | 7" display, 16 GB, latest model (2022 release), Black with Ads

This tablet is perfect. At such a low price, the quality is amazing. I’d say they’re durable and perfect for children. My kids love theirs. Games run perfect and smoothly, videos play perfect and smoothly. They’re easy to set up. I’d definitely recommend this tablet. The screen quality is amazing. Memory capacity is really good for Netflix, YouTube, Roblox, Minecraft ( the larger apps ) and then the smaller ones like subway surf, candy crush, Lucas and Friends learning, Drawing and Colouring apps. I will always stick with Amazon Fire Tablets for my kids. The size is perfect for them too. The list goes on. I’ve not had a negative thing to say so far. And we’ve been buying Amazon Fire tablets for the last 3 years. Perfect. Thank yo

This is my first Amazon tablet and I wasn’t sure what to expect given the devices extremely low price and specs (relative to other tablets, especially the latest iPads). However, I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the quality, size and battery life of the device.The display isn’t HD but it’s good enough for general browsing using amazons silk browser and reading eBooks. The text can sometimes appear small on the 7 inch display but adjusting display and accessibility settings allows you to get a decent text size for readability. While regular ebooks look good… magazines and textbooks require a fair amount of zooming to read text and diagrams. I think this is where the 10 inch Fire tablet is better recommended. Watching movies is ok but you’re only going to get SD level quality here, it’s ok for the occasional TV show but movies deserve a better screen. I’d say it’s alright if you temper expectations on this front. The display doesn’t appear to be glass so I recommend getting either the official case or a screen protector.Sound is ok as it only comes from a mono speaker but I found it passable for general audio and listening to audiobooks. While watching video I’d recommend either wired or Bluetooth headphonesThe weight of the tablet is good… I think on par with the iPad mini and therefore a decent weight to hold for prolonged periods while reading books. It feels good in the hand and feels of good quality.The tablet isn’t the fastest but it’s not painfully slow either. In my usage with browsing the web, Audible, Prime Video and Kindle it’s been pretty responsive for the most part. The Fire OS is a decent OS if you’re using a lot of Amazon services. Battery life is pretty good and close to the 10 hours claimed by Amazon. Standby times are excellent.Overall if you have expectations in check given the tablets price and use a lot of Amazon services, it’s a good buy. What I like most is its size, so few tablets are small like this these days and it’s great to carry around a device I can read ebooks and browse the web on that doesn’t weigh much, has long battery life and is way way cheaper than an iPad mini. I still have a mini but I really like this device and its price means you don’t worry about dropping a 500 plus device while out and about, staying in hospital, traveling etc. I’d say it’s a really decent tablet for Amazons lowest price Fire device.

As long as you are clear for what you want to use this tablet for then it is a great piece of kit. We got it on a Amazon Prime day earlier this year and love the size of it - a real one hand job. The picture when you run a film or stream a programme is crystal clear and can download most streaming apps - but check the tablet specs if you have a specific one you want. For example you have to watch You Tube through the browser. I use the tablet to read news, sport, library books, listen to music and watch TV and streaming services. You will need a bluetooth speaker as the speaker is very quiet but it still gets 5 stars due to the Prime Day value and the ideal size for your bag or "cargo shorts" pocket! Two things to note - the "ads" are just on the lock screen which if you want to display your own photo you can't and if you are playing music and the screen is locked you just need to swipe down from the top and you'll find the music controls. I know some people say it's a pain to unlock the screen every time you want to pause your music but you don't - just swipe down from the top :0)

I didn't know what to expect from the 2022 amazon fire model. Having had android tablets before I know they can generally be a bit slow and under performing.First things first - out of the box the unit is great - it's super light - the denim colour is nice and it actually feels pretty nice in the hand. The screen display is pretty good quality compared to some other cheap android equivalents so I was really happy with this.The integration to amazon services is really good and one of the best sellers of this tablet, it integrates nicely with alexa and is happy to help you manage your home from the tablet - even with some control of ring doorbell etc.My main criticism of the device is the app store - it's severely lacking in popular apps. Things that you would consider as standard apps for apple and google play store just aren't available in the amazon app store which really restricts the usage of the app in my opinion.If you want a tablet that;- Allows you to browse the internet- Take advantage of all the amazon eco-system- Is cheap as chipsThis really is the tablet for you.If you want a tablet that has some level of app support - unfortunately I would recommend looking elsewhere for another google equivalent. I would imagine that a lot of users are upgrading their tablet from a previous generation so hopefully this isn't a concern and is definitely a worthwhile upgrade from earlier models.Overall very impressed with it generally - I just wish the app store was a bit more extensively supported by app developers.

Just the right size for childrens' hands, has all they need for entertainment and practical too, easy to use. There's no lagging in speed and screens are stronger than many other brands. They also have good parental control fearures. The batterry also lasts well.
