All FIre HD8's are only 4 cores and not very fast. These are the tabelts that make you bald cause it makes you pull out your hair.


I use to be a HUGE Fire HD10 fanboy but Lenovo 10e has changed my mind.

Lenovo 10e is on sale for $99. It has the identical CPU/GPU as the Fire HD10, it has 4GB of ram but only has a 32 GB harddrive with no micro SD slot,

Lenovo 10e is a Chromebook tablet.
Benefits:
1. Chrome OS but it also has the play store and can play everything the Fire HD10 can play.
2. Zero Bloatware (Chromebook)
3. Full Windows Chrome; that means you can apply addons. Chrome for Android is a butchered Chrome. There are huge advantages to have the full Windows Chrome.
4. Updates twice as long and Chrome OS is considered much more secure then Android. Also updates come from Google.
5. Chromebooks have USB-C to HDMI out. So you can use this tablet as a desk top. Fire tablets have no UCB-C to HDMI
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n...Srk&t=156s
6. Chromebooks can run Linux apps. (for example, call of duty no longer plays on a 32bit Android OS, both the Fire HD10 and the Lenovo 10e run Android 9 32bit OS but you can install Call of Duty on the Chromebook through Linux).


Disadvantages compared to Fire HD10.
1. Fire HD10 has better screen. It is brighter 440 nits vs 400 nits. Besides the brightness, there is not much of a difference, both screen are very good.
2. Fire HD10 has better speakers
3. Fire HD10 has a Micro SD slot
4. Fire HD10+ has wireless charging

Other considerations....
If you get the Lenovo 10e, realize that Chrome is a much bigger program and websites may not refresh as fast. You can always download Brave or Valvaldi web browsers and then surfing should be equal.

Fire HD10 has widevine Level 1 support, so you can stream in HD. Lenovo 10e has widevine level one support attached the the Chrome App only. So with the Lenovo, you want to go to www.netflix.com [netflix.com] and not use the app unless you want to download a movie or show to watch on a plane.

To many people use XDA Amazon Tool Box and never update their OS and they put themselves at risk. A Chromebook is more secure then the mac book pro.

The main reason why I recommend the 10e vs the Fire HD10 is because:
1. Zero Bloatware
2. Google updates the OS until June 2028.
3. Identical performance.

Reasons to get the Fire HD10
1. You need to use a Micro SD card (even though you can add a UCB-C hub to the Lenovo 10e)
2. You want 64GB of hard drive space.
3. Slightly better screen and speakers.
4. You need to burn a 20% off coupon.

Per Google, no Chromebook is allowed a GPS, I don't know why... maybe someone knows? I believe the fire hd10 also has no GPS.

Both tablets Fire HD10 and Lenovo 10e are good tablets. These r considered budget tablets. The next generation, Samsung Tab A8 has the Tiger T618. I bet the next generation fire will have this cpu.

Here is a comparison of the MT8183 VS T618, can't get the link working?

Supposely, retroarch still works and may be relatively easy to use and install the google play store to play Gamepass Ultimate on it.

Could be a good chance to get rid of old tablets (I think I still have my credit from the last trade in I sent, and I hope 20% still valid) Good opportunity to upgrade old 7" super slow model to newer 8" .. the 10" model in this screen ratio makes it too big/tall/wide for comfortable usage, but it's good for movies.

Edit: Huh, did they change the ratio on latest model? Doesn't look like wide screen anymore?

Hopefully they'll have deals on Kindles next.

Same issue here. I never got instant trade in and 20 credit. 20% isn't applying and I missed the HD10 for $75

I missed it last time, by the time old one got delivered the deal went off. Hence I cancelled the trade in,
This time I bought it and am I m shipping the old one now. Heard that they rebate 20% back once the trade in is processed.

I really like the HD 10 2021 I got last Black Friday, for $60. Easily worth it. I Fire Toolboxed it, installed Google Play and a bunch of app, and even without uninstalling or disabling Amazon Apps (more out of laziness than anything) it's pretty fast for what I do with it. Mostly email, news, surfing, YouTube, Netflix, Sling, Prime Video, video chat, etc. It's not my main computer so I don't care that it's not the fastest out there. Mostly media content consumption.

Not working either, was there a code we're supposed to enter? I thought it would just be added to the account and auto apply.

Kinda funny that this deal came up now. I got the HSN Fire HD 10 (2021 model) 2-pack back in October for $150. Came with vouchers for Caseable cases for them, and app vouchers (don't care about the app vouchers, kinda trash). The reason I find it interesting is that I am quite literally at this moment taking a break from using Fire Toolbox on them, since I never even opened them. Going to use them for the same as you, media consumption, as well as (more media) PDF's of books and graphic novels I have.

Sweet. Traded in my 2017 Fire 7 for $20, and got 20% off.

Bought the Fire Kids 8" pro tablet for $80 - $36 in discounts.

I just picked up an 8" Pro from Best Buy. Had a $25 gift card so figured for $35 after taxes it's worth giving it a try. Never used one before.

Can you please provide some more info? Did Amazon block it? Only the newest model?
