Review: A great update to the Fire tablet line - This desertcart Fire HD 8 Plus is a great complementary device for those who already have a real computer. This is true whether that real computer is a desktop or a laptop. Windows 10 or Mac Os, it doesn't matter. As long as you have a "real" computer, this Fire HD 8 Plus table is a great companion device. Perhaps the best companion device for most people. I work in the IT field. In my opinion, most people overbuy and overspend on technology devices. Which is fine, buying that new toy can be fun. For a while. But know this. A lot of you what buy, you can do without. Let me explain. A computing device like a desktop or a laptop gives you the most versatility. Add a smart phone and those are all the tech needed by the majority of people. Most do not need a writing tablet to draw on or take notes on. Most just need a secondary device for portability and quick access. A Fire tablet will do that. I own a Windows 10 and a Macbook laptops. I also own an iPad. Occasionally, I would use my Kindle reader and my old Fire HDX 7. I only need three to meet all of my needs. One laptop, my smart phone, and a tablet. I only use the ipad to pick fights on Twitter, make quick purchases on desertcart, and check my email. I may go on Facebook once in a while. Guess what. Any Windows 10 or Macbook would do those and with more versatility. My smart phone would do all of those, although with a lot less versatility and more aggravation. An desertcart Fire tablet will do all of those things, with more finesse and ease than a smart phone. And just as well as an iPad. I bought this new Fire to replace a 2015 Fire HDX 7. The HDX 7 is still in perfect shape. The battery holds as much charge as when it was new. But it no longer runs the desertcart shopping app. That's the only thing wrong with it. My Kindle is also of 2015 vintage. That Kindle is also still in perfect condition. But this newer model has updates that I wanted. Like front and rear facing cameras. The HDX 7 only has a front facing camera. I wanted to run the desertcart shopping app, for ease of use. I also wanted to start a relationship with the charming Alexa. It doesn't mean I'm dumping Sirri though. I can readily recommend this desertcart Fire HD 8 Plus for most people who already have a true computer, whether it's Windows or Mac. This is a great companion device for those who already have a computer. It is a lot less expensive than an iPad and does almost as much. It is also a lot more durable. Most tablets are used for media consumption and social interactions. You can do those on this Fire. The only thing you might miss is a browser like Safari or Edge. Silk works fine and it has gotten better over the years, but I still prefer a traditional browser. I did not order the wireless dock. This Fire will be carried with me to work. Charging with the USB is fine for now. I bought the desertcart protective sleeve that was made for this device. You want to keep your Fire in some kind of a protective sleeve so the screen does not get scratched. When you buy tech toys, find the sweet spot. Always buy something that can be upgraded. I have added more RAM as well as upgraded the hard drive to solid state on my 5-year-old Windows 10 laptop. It still runs great after five years. It is a high-end Lenovo model. Likewise, I bought the Fire HD 8 Plus because you can add additional storage easily. You cannot really upgrade an iPad. I am not saying buy high end, but pay more up front and keep the device for a lot longer. This Fire HD 8 Plus is a fine device. No, it will not meet the needs of the artists who wants to use a pen/stylus to draw. It will not meet the requirements of the busy college student who wants to take precise notes by hand on a tablet. But it will capably do email, twitter, facebook, desertcart purchases, take pictures, make videos, ebooks, audiobooks, just fine. The Silk browser has gotten better and works well.
Review: A great entertainment device for the money. - What can I add to the thousands of mostly positive reviews here? Let me try to just add a different perspective without all of the tech talking points that seem to be well covered here. Our last Fire was the HDX model a few years back. We still have it and it is working fine. My son uses it. The hard drive is too small so we are always running out of space. I have owned various tablets from Apple and Samsung as well. I just wanted a device I could watch some shows on, read a little (I have a Kindle Oasis that I keep on my night stand) when I am out of the house, listen to occasional music, and can surf the web in lieu of my phone. The Fire 8 Plus checks those boxes. Frankly, as a long time Prime member, it is actually ideal. This device is highly integrated into the desertcart ecosystem. I read so many reviews that made this out to be a bad thing. I get that on some level but thats kind of missing the point to me. Thats actually exactly what I want. I still have access to my Netflix and Spotify accounts but I can also just hit the Video menu button and immediately be placed into my Prime video menu. Its really great. Another common complaint is the lack of the Google Android Play Store. It is a valid complaint. I have never really understood this decision by desertcart. It seems like a lot of work for no reason on desertcart's part but it does keep you in desertcart's playground. Regardless, for me its fine. The app store offers all the big name apps I want or need. This just isn't a negative for me and what I want out of the device. The screen is good. I could nitpick it for sure. Its a bit dull and really not bright enough if you are under bright lights. Outdoor viewing would be nearly impossible in the sun. Its not the fastest tablet either. You will notice it if your phone is a relatively current flagship model but it works fine. For what its worth, I am pretty picky about my tech. This newest Kindle just gets it done. It has a solid battery life, good screen, its well made, and its built to do exactly what I needed it to do. If you spend a lot of time in the desertcart ecosystem, at approximately $120, this borders on being a must buy. Just know what you want. If you are looking for a fast vivid tablet that is diverse, this probably isn't it. If you need something that is productive as a work tool, this definitely isn't it. If you want an inexpensive little entertainment machine though, I don't think you will find a better addition to your arsenal of tech at a better price than this.

*by P***O on June 23, 2022*

El paquete se recibió a tiempo, y la recomiendo totalmente a gente que la quiera utilizar para leer, ver videos y jugar ocasionalmente. Recomiendo comprar el modelo plus sobre la normal dado que existe mucha diferencia en tiempo de carga en las aplicaciones, incluye carga inalámbrica y se puede transformar en un echo show con una base especial de carga inalámbrica. Recomiendo comprar la funda original.
