Our take on the Amazon Fire HD 8 Kids Pro Tablet (Newest Model)
The Fire HD 8 Kids Pro is Amazon's 8-inch tablet aimed at kids roughly 6 to 12, sold with a slim kid-proof case and 32GB of storage. It runs Amazon's Fire OS with a child profile, parental controls and a curated app store, so parents set limits and kids get a walled-garden experience. Compared with a standard Fire HD 8, it adds the case and a two-year worry-free guarantee; compared with an iPad or a full Android tablet it is slower and tied to Amazon's ecosystem, but simpler to manage for younger kids. Reviewers generally call it good value for a first tablet, while noting the modest performance and screen quality.
- Slim kid-proof case included
- Two-year worry-free guarantee from Amazon

Questions and answers
- Is this the same as a regular Fire HD 8?
- It uses the same 8-inch tablet hardware but ships with a slim kid-proof case and Amazon's two-year worry-free guarantee, plus a child profile set up out of the box.
- What age is it for?
- Amazon positions it for kids about 6 to 12. Younger kids may do better with the chunkier Fire Kids edition, while older kids may want a faster tablet.
- Can I add more storage?
- Yes. It has 32GB built in and a microSD slot for extra storage for apps, photos and downloaded videos.
- Does it run Google apps like YouTube and Gmail?
- No. It runs Fire OS and uses Amazon's app store, so Google Play and Google apps are not available; some apps can be sideloaded but not officially supported.
- Can parents limit screen time and content?
- Yes. Parental controls let you set daily time limits, bedtime, age filters for apps and web browsing, and approve purchases.
- What comes in the box?
- The tablet, the slim kid-proof case, a USB-C charging cable and a power adapter.
