Our take on the Amazon Fire HD 8 32GB 12th Generation (2022)

The Fire HD 8 is Amazon's small, cheap tablet for reading, streaming and light browsing. Its 8-inch 1280x800 screen at 189 ppi is fine for video and books but soft for small text and photos. A hexa-core chip and 2GB of RAM handle apps and streaming, not heavy multitasking or games. It suits buyers who want a secondary screen for Amazon content and simple tasks; an iPad or a full Android tablet does far more for more money.
