Admittedly, my idea of “play” is reading - so take that as you will.
This tablet definitely shines for leisure time. The major streaming apps are available for download on the Fire HD 10. Anyone else is probably better off getting an iPad or an Android tablet that provides access to the Google Play Store - either of which offers access to way more apps along with a faster browsing experience. So, if your workplace uses Microsoft apps like Office and Teams, this is gonna be a solid tool for you. However, the productivity bundle also comes with a Microsoft 365 personal subscription, which includes a free 12-month Office subscription and 1TB of OneDrive cloud storage. And unfortunately the Silk browser (Amazon’s built-in browser for their devices) is pretty sluggish. So while you can access Zoom, Outlook, and Microsoft Teams, there’s no access to Google Docs, Asana, Trello, or any of the other major productivity or work apps unless you use the browser. One major issue with using this tablet for work is that you only have access to apps available on Amazon. It’s magnetic and reattaches easily once you need to use it again. However, for staying connected while traveling it’s the perfect solution to carrying a bulky laptop bag.Īnd when I want to hold my tablet upright, I can just snap the keyboard portion off without needing to remove the tablet from the case. The keyboard is only the width of the tablet, so it’s a little cramped - definitely not a perfect alternative to a desktop or laptop. I used to think it was silly to buy a keyboard for your tablet (“Congrats, it’s a laptop!”), but… it’s actually pretty handy. WorkĪmazon offers a productivity bundle (opens in a new tab) (starting at $219) for this tablet which comes with a Bluetooth keyboard case. It’s also got a soft touch slate-colored finish, and it automatically switches into Show Mode (transforming it into a hands-free assistant) on a Qi-certified wireless charger or Anker’s made-for-Amazon wireless charging dock (opens in a new tab). Its low price compared to the iPad (starting at $329) makes it a serious contender in the tablet market, and it comes in four color options (black, denim, lavender, olive).Īmazon also has the Fire HD 10 Plus (opens in a new tab) ($179.99) which has another gig of RAM on top of what the Fire HD 10 offers. The Amazon Fire HD 10 (opens in a new tab) ($149.99) boasts a brighter display, a more durable screen, and 50 percent more RAM than the previous gen Fire 10 tablet - along with a 2MP front-facing and 5MP rear-facing camera. It’s also a solid choice for people who use the Microsoft app suite for work. The brand's Fire HD 10 is inexpensive and high performing, and ideal if you’re already invested in the Amazon ecosystem with a Prime membership or Alexa-enabled devices. Looking for a quality tablet for streaming and e-books (without the Apple prices)? Amazon has pretty much cornered the market in that regard.
