Size matters and this Kindle is just right.
I've had a Kindle for many years but most of the time it was tucked away in a drawer. I also had an iPad which sidelined the Kindle. Anyway, I was having a clear out and came across the ancient Kindle and connected a charger and within moments it was working happily in my hand. Being quite old it stumbled along (like me sometimes) but I was impressed by its size - really convenient. I checked out the latest Kindle and decided to buy one. It is quite fantastic - it holds all my music and books and you can use email and surf the Internet. A single charge lasts for days. Whether you are travelling or just want a convenient pile of books by your bed this Kindle is the way to go.

Great value tablet for everyday use
Really good value for the price. The screen is clear, battery life is solid, and it’s perfect for streaming, browsing, and light use. It’s not a high-end tablet, but for everyday tasks it does the job well and feels reliable. Ideal as a family tablet or for kids.

Great quality tablet, easy to use.
We love this tablet, it’s easy to use, easy to get downloads, you can opt to have parental control on or not, it’s great for them to play games or watch their favourite programmes, picture quality is brilliant. I like that there is now an option for different colours each of my girls now have their own colour so makes it much easier. And for the money I think it is really worth it

Great
Yes, is good, especially if you have already a fire tablet, then set up is a breeze. All the stuff you need etc. Is not much different from the larger fire tablets in use and set up. So brightness can be set, and is automatic anyway. So it's okay and good for the price. Games are fast and play well. Some games are free with prime. Overall, this is good, the is only one advert on startup, so not bad at all. If you need an account not available in apps, then the browser provided Silk, is effective and efficient and you can open google Docs, bank accounts, teams through silk. Silk is a good browsee. Because Fire is based on Linux it's safe from viruses.
