Why you should buy the Amazon Fire HD 8 tablet

Available in Denim or Black colorways, the Amazon Fire HD 8 is a 2022 tablet that Amazon still sells brand-new. Compared to the previous Fire HD 8 generation, the 2022 version features a revamped processor with up to 30% faster performance. You’ll also be treated to a gorgeous 1280 x 800 (189 ppi) HD touchscreen, two 720p cameras, and access to numerous apps via Amazon’s Fire TV platform. Whether you plan on streaming Netflix or taking video calls with friends and family, this is one of the best budget-friendly tablets for the job.

This particular configuration comes with 64GB of storage and the Lockscreen Ad-Supported display. This just means you’ll see a rotation of Amazon ads on the touchscreen when the tablet isn’t in use. On a full charge, this version of the Fire HD 8 should last for up to 13 hours and takes up to 5 hours to recharge with the included adapter.

It’s hard to say how long this discount is going to last, so now might be the best time to take advantage of this early Prime Day offer. Take $70 off the 64GB Lockscreen Ad-Supported version of the Amazon Fire HD 8 tablet when you order through Amazon, and be sure to check out some of the other great Amazon deals we’ve been finding.
