Under the hood, the Fire HD 8 (2017) runs on a customized version of Android 5.1 (Lollipop), known as Fire OS 5.4. This operating system prioritizes Amazon’s services and content, integrating seamlessly with Amazon Prime for users deeply invested in the ecosystem. Powered by a Mediatek MT8163 chipset paired with a Mali-T730MP3 GPU, the device houses a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A53 processor. While suitable for everyday tasks and media consumption, the limited 1.5GB RAM may constrain multitasking and performance-intensive applications.
