Reviews for the Amazon Fire HD 8 Kids 2022
The Fire HD 8 Kids 2022 and Kids Pro 2022 are tablets designed for children. Thanks to the Amazon Kids Dashboard, parents have full control over the use of the tablets. However, there are some drawbacks in terms of hardware. You can read more about these in the review.

It’s not cool, it’s not fast and the screen could be brighter, but as a tablet for younger kids the Amazon Fire HD 8 Kids is pretty much in a class of its own. True, buying an iPad would give you access to a wider range of apps and games and Apple’s own curated experience and parental controls, but it’s going to cost you a lot more and it won’t be anywhere near as robust. The Fire HD 8 kids gives your offspring easy access to content that will keep them entertained – and even learning – while giving you peace of mind that they won’t break it and that they won’t come across anything you wouldn’t want them to. For an extra £50, that’s a bargain.

Amazon has cornered the kid-friendly tablet market with three enticing options. The Fire HD 8 Kids hits a sweet spot at $149.99, with a better screen and smoother performance than the $109.99 Fire 7 Kids. It's certainly not the fastest tablet, but it works well enough that kids won't grow impatient or feel like they're using a toy. But while it's easy to recommend the Fire HD 8 over the Fire 7, it's also worth considering the $199.99 Fire HD 10. For the extra $50, the Fire HD 10 Kids offers enough of a boost in performance and screen quality that it remains our Editors' Choice winner, though it can become pricey if you're buying tablets for a number of children.

This display format is in the mid-range for smartphones. It offers a compromise between good visibility, details and resolution on the screen, and you can still fit it into trouser pockets.
