Pros Cons
Battery lifePerformance
For just under $50, you’ll get 32GB of storage, 2GB of memory, a quad-core 2.0GHz processor, a battery life of 12 hours, and an 8-inch HD display. You can add up to 1TB of storage using the microSD card slot. The Fire HD 8 is an easy recommendation due to its low price, fresh design, and decent performance. If you’re on a tight budget that lines up with the HD 8, you’ll be happy with it. However, if you are looking for a little more tablet for not a whole lot more money, then keep reading. Pros
Bigger display than Fire 7Still affordable Improved battery life
Cons
Performance
We recommend going with the HD 8 Plus over the standard 8, if it’s within your budget. For example, for the higher price, you get 3GB of memory instead of 2GB, and it’ll work with a wireless charging pad. The importance of wireless charging is debatable. However, an extra gigabyte of memory means your apps won’t reload as often, and overall performance will be slightly improved. The Fire HD 8 Plus boasts most of the same specs as its less expensive sibling, with an 8-inch display and a resolution of 1280x800, 3GB of memory, 32GB of storage, and a quad-core 2.0GHz processor. Battery life should reach 12 hours. The optional charging stand brings the total to $140, but it’s worth it. Pros
Still affordableWireless chargingMore memory equals better performance
Cons
Performance will still be slower than an iPad
The combination of the display quality and 10.1-inch size means the Fire HD 10 is perfect to catch up on your favorite Netflix series, game, shop or read a book on, and it’s priced right at $149. Pros

Cons
Performance is still just okay
