Amazon - Fire HD 10 2019 release - 10.1" - Tablet - 64GB - Plum

I am buying this Kindle to replace my generation 2 with the latest version. While I used my older daily it lost its ability to charge. I was able to use the backup function to load my applications and books inside of a half hour. I am chair bound and use the Kindle to watch movies, read books and magazines, and to entertain myself with games.

I absolutely love the new Amazon Fire tablet! I use it to read books, watch my favorite TV shows and movies and to catch up on social media!! Great purchase!

My grandkids come quite frequently. It was important to have games and video available they could enjoy!

Just to be fair - before you purchase this, you should be aware that Amazon has their own user interface baked into this tablet. It is not your normal average Android G**gle Chrome interface. That being said, please also note that the lock screens have ads baked in. These ads will vary and do change from time to time. One has to pay $15 to Amazon in order to remove that "feature". Now to be honest - these tablets are very usable for my children. Nowadays, even 2-yo's are familiar with how to navigate most tablet interfaces; however, mine are older but still normally use it - YTKids, Y*()7()83, and oh, Huetoob (I don't want to really type the name.) I've installed G**gle on it as you might find the instructions on most social media (YT) instructables or articles. They even use it for distance learning - make sure you also install G-Suite after installing the G**gle environment because some school districts need it. Its quick enough and has pleanty of space to store all of their home made videos and photos. It's a solid performer. My only gripe is that the screen isn't prefectly flat. I installed a third-party glass screen saver on one of them and their was a huge gap/bubble. Not so much a bubble but an indentation on the screen where the screen protector couldn't adhere to. Not so much of a problem as it can't be seen when the screen is active. I don't believe the touch feature is affected as a result of this either. Advisement - you will probably have to wipe and restore back to factory once a year to clear all of the mess collected throughout the year. Just make sure you backup the vids and photos which can be copied to (if not already) on the microSD card. This does have a microSD card slot so you can expand the storage should you need.

I replaced an old Acer tablet and I am very satisfied with this tablet. My old tablet was smaller so it's taken me some time to get used to the larger size. I wasn't sure about the ad's but they really haven't bothered me. I like that it keeps a charge for a longer period than my old tablet. I do wish the charger cord was longer but I can live with it. I can't use the same charger as my phone as it's a different size head. The real test for the tablet will be when I'm on the road without my computer and relying solely on the tablet (I haven't done that yet).

I am writing this review from my new fire tablet. It is a great alternative to an iPad. It is way less expensive and the 10.1 model is nice and big. Just remember to choose the tablet without ads. The ads are annoying. I am still figuring out how to remove them. The fire tablet does not link to your cellphone and goes off of work fi. Make sure to find out how to install Google Play so you can install your favorite apps.

This product was easy to set up and get running. Had great specials with it that made it fun and let's me decide what I want before 30 days are up. Much larger screen and better photos and colors and graphics....Games are better also. The specials you can have for 30 day free trial are really very nice feature to this package...I received my Kindle in a very good time frame considering curbing pandemic.
