Amazon Fire HD 8 Plus (2020) Review
Score: 59.7 / 100Amazon Fire HD 8 Plus (2020) is a pretty good portable tablet launched in 2020, coming with a high-tech Quad-Core CPU speeding at 2 gigahertz, a comfortable 8-inches screen, and 2 cameras, a 2 MP back camera and a 2 MP front camera. Let's take a closer look at what this tablet device offers to us.
This device is equipped with a high performance 2000 megahertz Quad-Core processing unit, bundled in a MediaTek MT8168 system chip and a big 3 GB of RAM. A key advantage of this tablet is its big 32 GB internal memory and a slot for external memory cards, which allows the user to store lots of apps, games, photos and videos without thinking about running out of space at all.
The Amazon Fire HD 8 Plus (2020) is very slim and stilized, with a thickness of just 0.38". This tablet is a very compact portable tablet, given that it features a 8 inches display and it has just 7.95 inches long and 5.39 inches wide. It appears that Amazon forgot about weight optimization in this 12.52 ounces tablet. Amazon made this tabletavailable just in a variety of color variations: black, plum, slate, twilight blue and white.
Amazon designed the Amazon Fire HD 8 Plus (2020) with a nice 8 inches screen, and a 800 x 1280 resolution, which makes everything look quite colorful and brightful.
This device has two cameras, a 2 MP back-facing camera and a 2 mega-pixels front camera. It is capable of filming HD 1280x720 videos.
This tablet includes wifi connection (although it can't be provided to other devices acting as a wireless modem or router). This device doesn't have a SIM card, because it is not a GSM enabled tablet.
This tablet also features a few nice characteristics such as Bluetooth (provides communication with other devices, computers and accessories) and GPS Navigation, and a couple sensors likeLight Sensor and Accelerometer.
This tablet might be a little bit overvalued considering it is sold for 110 dollars, while other similar tablets are sold for a bit less than that. The Amazon Fire HD 8 Plus (2020) is probably a good choice for you no matter if you are looking for a tablet device for gaming or want this device mainly for social networks.
