Our take on the Amazon Fire 7 7" 16GB Wi-Fi Kid's Tablet
The Amazon Fire 7 Kids Tablet is a 7-inch tablet built for children, with a kid-proof bumper case and a two-year worry-free guarantee. It runs Amazon's Fire OS, so apps come from the Amazon Appstore rather than Google Play, and it is set up around Amazon Kids parental controls with age filters and time limits. It suits parents who want a cheap, replaceable first tablet for young children. Against rivals like the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9 Kids Edition, it has a lower-resolution screen and weaker speakers, but the parental tools and replacement guarantee are simpler.
- Kid-proof bumper case included
- Two-year worry-free guarantee replaces it if broken
- Amazon Kids parental controls with time limits and age filters
