Amazon Fire HD 8 - User Reviews

  • ok folks, 1st and foremost this is a tablet. but what you DO with it makes it FLY! you can download about 3 little programs which allow it to go to & use google play apps. so options expanded there!. i can't recall but google hangouts and the hangouts dialer can be downloaded from googleplay store & via google voice, you CAN use it as a phone in wifi range. THAT makes this a phone still free calls via the 2 above apps . so it CAN be used as a "phone" if your REALLY feeling froggy you can "flash the rom" though it's not for the faint of heart because you can brick the device and make it a very sleek pretty paperweight. fair warning! the hardware is there and frankly i like the amazon kindle fires interface. for the price? you'd be hard pressed to find a tablet AS good as the kindle fire HD 8! buy one on sale even and go have fun!! people taking crap to seriously..ENJOY the device!! Cheers!

  • in all fairness when do you see tablets that make calls....not often im guessing lol also the internal storage is as good as most flagship devices and it DOES have a micro sd slot. their is not one bit of truth to your review

  • this phone is good but the memory and camera is not good

  • I really like amazon's product 😀 all i dislike about it are: non-cellular connection,low storage and no sd card slot 😔
