Third party apps are even worse: It took nearly five seconds for the New York Times app to open, and nearly as long for Hulu and a recommended Sudoku app to load. From the Prime Video app to the Bookstore, every app takes some time to open. We encountered some amount of lag when using the Fire HD 8 for just about any and every task. We encountered a good deal of lag when using the Fire HD 8 for just about any and every task. The base storage is still only 16GB, but there is a 32GB model as well (and a MicroSD card slot for up to 400GB more if needed). There’s a 1.3 GHz Mediatek quad-core processor, along with the same 1.5 GB of RAM. The hardware in this year’s Fire HD 8 is nearly identical to the models Amazon released in 20. Performance can be frustrating, but battery life is great We should be clear though - it’s difficult to find another tablet in this price range, and if your budget is under $100, you’ll be satisfied with what you see here. The colors aren’t punchy and are a little muted, but on a more positive note, the screen did get bright enough to see in direct sunlight outdoors. It also has poor viewing angles, so you’ll need to look at the tablet directly to be able to see everything clearly. While Amazon bills the display as “crisp,” it’s anything but: Text on the home page looks fine, but you’ll notice pixels in many other scenarios, from the fuzzy text in books to low resolution movies in Prime Video. The Fire HD 8 maintains the same 1,280 x 800 resolution for its LCD screen. It will hardly fill a quiet room, so don’t expect them to replace your Bluetooth speakers. While they don’t pack a lot of bass and they can sound a little tinny, they’re sufficiently loud when the tablet is directly in front of you. The left side of the Fire HD 8 is home to stereo speakers that support Dolby Atmos.
