    BIG Kindle=BIG Entertainment

    Having experienced the smaller versions and been quite satisfied, I wanted to try the larger screen for movie watching and Hidden Object games. This Kindle delivered that and more. Inititially I wasn't sure I wanted a Kindle because I want to keep printed books around for a long time. My daughter gave me a 7 HD for Christmas several years ago and I fell under it's spell immediately. Because I was having many doctor's appointments and tests, my BFF gave me the small 6 HD last year for Christmas and it was very convenient to take and go most places. Now I have the 8.9 HD and have a Kindle for every occasion when friends aren't borrowing one or the other. I have a terrific daughter and BFFand love them dearly for bringing the Kindle experience into my life. Whatever size you might decide on, each offers more than just reading. You can play games, shop, read e-mail, access social media, take pictures and send those pictures, skype with friends, listen to music, watch tv or movies. .they are Android platforms so thousands of apps will work on them. Plus you have ample storage in your Cloud for all those books you want to read, movies, magazines, albums, games and apps. Just keep what you want to access at the moment on the device and swap items in and out of your Cloud and never worry about not having enough space. One advantage to have more than one Kindle is that one is always charged up and ready to go when you are. All of mine are Wi-Fi only because I don't want to pay another monthly fee for 4G but to each his own.

    Love my Kindle!

    I absolutely love the Kindle 8.9. I have actually bought 3. My first one I had for two years and accidently dropped it on the tile in my house, it hit the corner of the tablet really hard. The only problem with it is a bit of broken LCD bleeding at the top. Still fully functional. My 2nd to replace the first. My 3rd to trade off when I get into a reading streak and keep forgetting to plug it in. (And to loan to my kid.) The screen is the perfect size, especially as my eyes are not focusing as well as they used to. The colors on the screen are brilliant and the weight is good enough that I can hold this up while reading in bed. I take my Kindle everywhere.

    GREAT looks, value, and speed.

    GREAT, I am not a book reader, I bought this after seeing the picture quality on the one that I bought for my wife. It looks incredible, I surf the net, play games, and watch video on it. While its true that the Kindle has no micro SD card slot the 32 Gb holds a lot and if you need more it offers you Google cloud drive so there is no problem with storage space. The battery lasts a long time, much longer then my old tablet, it transfers files easily from my computer and is probably the most user friendly tablet that I have had and it is very fast.

    A Gift for the Lady I love and have loved for over 44 years.

    I grew up at a time when people loved to read. Wife's kindle started to go a bit wonkey, so she was thinking about replacing it before it drove her nuts. This one came up and I ordered it. Ran a couple of tests on it when it arrived and it checked out just fine. She does a bit of reading as do I. She she tried it, liked it, and has been using it ever since. That's called a hit!

    Library in your hands!

    The Kindle Fire HD is like having your own library in your hands. What took me years & a lot of time & money to assemble in hard copy was largely recreated in a few days on Kindle. Additionally, you can highlight text & share it on Social Media, a big plus. You can store PDF's as well, images, and even games. With Wi-Fi & 4G capability, it's like having a small computer in your hands. An amazing value!

    A great device for everyday use!

    I take it with me to work to keep up with the news and weather. I listen to music on it when I work in my home office. It is a great companion and works very well. The screen is vibrant and the internet hooks up to WIFI very quickly. I have nothing but good things to say about it. A great purchase.

    Great for Kindle books

    I have a 10" Fire I use for Netflix and Prime. But the Kindle book app has limited display options. I spend 10 hours a day on the computer for work, I needed something easier on the eyes for reading my Kindle Unlimited books at night. This 8" has the soft white light background option that I feel is easier on my eyes.

    I'm getting used to it, after only having a Kindle for so long, love what I can do now!

    I put off getting a tablet, but I find I can do things now my old desktop just couldn't handle well, like watching videos. What a big difference! I waited until I could find what I wanted (a basic tablet for me) at a price I wanted to pay, and I found it. Very happy with it all around. :D

    Great screen; excellent features, and very good price.

    Debated on getting a Kindle, but this one was in v.g. condition, and I won the auction at a great price..Now, over a year later, it is still working perfectly. Really excellent picture and resolution! My primary use is Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime, plus the occasional Kindle ebook. It functions beautifully in all departments!

    Excellent Product

    This is my 3rd Kindle 8.9 HD FIRE and am pleased with price, performance, storage, HD quality and ease of use. My wife and I both love the tablet/game features. They go with us everywhere. Works great as an office wireless video surveillance monitor.
