I purchased what I thought was a NEW “fire HD 8 PLUS”, which arrived in a slightly battered box, and the seal on the inner protective envelope was already half removed. I have checked and do not see that it has been refurbished, so am trusting that it is indeed NEW but only “open box”, which I would have been OK with if that had been the description of what the item’s condition was ….

I already own multiple iPads and higher end Android tablets. Why did I end up buying the Amazon Fire HD 8 Plus and give it a 5 star rating?
This tablet simply exceeded my expectations.
I was in the market for a smaller lighter tablet to read books and manga. As good as my other tablets are, they are not easy to hold for multiple hours of reading. Holding a metal and glass tablet with a 10.6 inch screen gets tiring over a few hours.
The screen on this Amazon tablet is more than adequate for reading books from the Kindle app. This is near perfect for manga since the screen size is similar to paper manga. Images and text appear nice and clear.
Installing the Google Play store was easy. I need apps like Google Home, Keep, Drive, and GBoard. YouTube works just fine.
My use case is rather easy to handle. I let my kids test this tablet. If it can keep up with my kids, then it can handle what I need a tablet for.
When I handed this off to my kids, they just went overboard on games. They couldn't find all of the games they play in the Amazon shop store, so I'll be referencing some games from the Google Play store.
Roblox is a popular app for my kids. The overall performance was good. It really depends on which game they are playing from Roblox. Piggy ran well. Broken Bones was very jittery but playable. Yeet-a-friend plays well if you disable some of the extra options for the game itself. Cookie Swirl C World is playable, but was not the smoothest. Spray Paint played well. Spider also played well. Random OBEEs splayed well.
Here is the pattern I noticed with Roblox. If the game supports a large lobby, then there is a greater chance that the game runs a bit slower. I noticed that the large lobby games are running a bit slow, but my kids didn't care. They were still happily playing and winning without issues.
Granny Chapter 1 and 2 play well.
Gacha Life and Gacha Club ran well.
Among Us ran well.
They were playing more games, but I couldn't keep up with their long list.
Overall, this tablet can run games well enough. It won't be as smooth as a higher end tablet, but I didn't notice any random crashes. My kids would have definitely complained about it. If you are considering this tablet for your kids to play games, you need to consider which games they are playing.
Surprisingly TikTok worked well. When swiping through videos, it may take a second to load before it plays. I don't notice that issue on my other tablets. After the initial pause, the videos play well.
Since reading and productivity were my main concern, it's a 5 star tablet for the price. Games are just the icing on the cake. Since I don't play them often it would not have been a concern for me. Now I have another device to hand off to my kids in those just in case situations.

It was either this or the iPad mini. I wanted a small tablet to read manga. I wasn't about to spend $500 plus on an iPad so this was the only choice. Over all it works great. Yes, the image quality is not excellent but it's adequate. You can zoom in a little to read smaller text on manga and it becomes readable. What I am most surprised though. Watching video on this thing is awesome! If anything this beats watching anime on my phone while leaning back in bed. For the price, you get an excellent little media machine, battery is rock solid. I think I get a months worth of battery. I've only charged it twice since I got it 3 months ago. Plus headphone jack. I still like my wired earbuds. If you're in the market for a small tablet, keep this one in your wishlist.

It’s still a budget tablet, but a very useful one. Especially for the money. I would say even if you’re just using your Fire tablet for browsing the net, and/or reading books, there’s a smoother run and less glitching. Compared to the regular HD 8, it’s noticeable in things like when I’m exercising and want to use the text to speech function, it doesn’t glitch nearly as much. I was having to stop doing what I’m doing and restart the text to speech function a lot more on the regular version. Does the plus version still glitch now and then? Yes, but not so much that it’s annoying me almost every time I use it. And I’m not talking about an older Fire tablet, but the newest version of the regular HD 8 I returned for the plus version. It’s worth the $20 extra for that alone! Results may vary. These are mine and I hope it helps if you’re having similar issues and wondering if the upgrade to the plus will help.
I also connected a Bluetooth keyboard which makes it a LOT more productive. And my AirPods connect easily as well. I have no issues taking this to a library or cafe to write, get some work done, and can listen to music on the Amazon music app while I’m at it. Also, the split screen function on the regular version was not able to consistently split the screen in equal halves without glitching and minimizing one half if the screen. The plus keeps the split consistently. So if you’re on a budget, or just looking for a small inexpensive table you can toss in bag and not worry a whole lot about what happens to it, this is pretty easily replaced, but durable enough to stand getting bounced around. I’ve had the Fire 7 and an HD10. This is the right size for holding in your hands while reading and for portability. Best Fire tablet I’ve owned so far.
