Performance
Equipped with a Mediatek MT8168 chipset and a Quad-core 2.0 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU, the Fire HD 8 handles everyday tasks such as media playback and light gaming with ease. However, with just 2GB of RAM, multitasking capabilities are limited, occasionally causing slowdowns when switching between apps. The use of Fire OS 7 (a variation of Android 9.0 Pie) heavily integrates Amazon services, making the tablet a gateway to Amazon's content. Users less dependent on the Amazon ecosystem may find this limiting due to a lack of Google Play Store access.
