Amazon Fire HD 8 (2022)

Rugged case ; Strong parental controls ; Good battery life ; Vibrant screen

Sluggish performance ; $10 more than the previous model ; Limited app selection

Performance isn’t really any better ; Limited selection of apps ; Awful cameras

If you’re a Prime subscriber and won’t miss Google apps you might be able to live with the Fire HD 8’s limited selection of apps, mediocre performance and terrible cameras. Most people will be better off with a slightly more expensive Android tablet,...
