Amazon Fire 8 Table Featured 2

We all know road trips can be insufferable, but they don’t have to be. Get an Amazon Fire HD 8 Tablet, and pay less than $60, yet still get everything you want in a tablet, including streaming, speed, expandable storage, long battery life, and USB-C. Do note that you will have lock screen ads. But if you want to remove then, it’s only $15 more.

This 2022 update on the Fire 8 tablet includes a 2.0 GHz hexa-core processor, making it 30 percent faster than the previous version. It offers 32 GB of internal storage and up to 1 TB with a microSD card and 2 GB RAM. This new design is both thinner and lighter than the previous generation and twice as durable as the 2021 Apple iPad mini.

The battery life is also improved, lasting up to 13 hours of mixed use, such as reading, surfing the Internet, watching videos, and listening to music. It’s also easy to charge via USB-C and will fully charge within five hours. The 2 MP front and rear-facing cameras take photos and 720p HD video.

Amazon Fire 8 Tablet Apps

Use your favorite apps, such as Netflix, Facebook, Hulu, Instagram, TikTok, and others that you can download from Amazon’s app store. The Amazon Fire HD 8 tablet, Gen 12, also includes Game Mode, a gaming experience that is distraction-free and optimized.

Of course, as a Fire device, it includes Alexa so that you can operate it hands-free. It will protect your privacy, allowing you to view and delete your voice recordings, and Alexa can be turned off with a toggle at any time.

Get the 64 GB Fire 8 with lock screen ads in Black, Denim, or Rose, for 58% off and pay just $54.99, much less than the $99.99 for the 32GB. Pay $144.99 to remove the ads from the 64GB lock screen and $114.99 for the 32GB lock screen.
