2015-10-03
this Amazon tablet only costs $50 that's right the Fire tablet costs $50 now I know what you're thinking is it even any good well there are some good things about it like it runs Amazon's latest operating system the user friendly fire OS 5 Bellini is built for taking advantage of Amazon's big media library if you're a Prime member you can stream and download all the TV shows and movies that come with your subscription for free and thanks to a new feature called Amazon underground you can also get free game downloads and in-app purchases additionally there's a microSD card slot for expanding the storage the fire tablet also comes in a kid's edition it cost twice the amount however you get a kid-friendly case a year subscription to free time unlimited which gives you access to tons of free books movies and games for children and if the tablet breaks within two years you get a replacement for free so what's not to like about it well it's design is a bit passe the screen quality isn't very good and performance is on the slow side it's only 50 dollars so you can't expect too much that said in comparison to other low-cost tablets the fire offers more features especially if you're an Amazon Prime member but if you can afford another 50 bucks I'd recommend upgrading to the Fire HD 6 it's a smaller tablet with the same software perks but it has a better screen and faster performance for more information on why you should or shouldn't buy the tablet read the review on CNET i'm zmr blanco and this has been a first look at the Amazon fire tablet
