Amazon’s new Fire Max 11 looks great There’s a big problem with Samsung’s new Android tablets If you can spend a little more on an entry-level iPad, then it’s worth doing so - but if you only really want a tablet for very casual use, the Fire HD 10 may be the way to go. Generally speaking, the Fire HD 10 is likely the best tablet in its price range. Notably, Fire OS now offers a split-screen mode, which will allow you to use two apps at the same time side by side.įor those who want a tablet for productivity, there’s also a keyboard case, which was designed specifically for the Fire HD 10 and 10 Plus tablets, connects through Bluetooth, and comes at $50. The software the Fire HD 10 uses is getting some updates too. You won’t find anything groundbreaking, but those that live within the Amazon ecosystem will appreciate the Alexa support and the ability to use Amazon Prime apps. The tablets offer most of the basics of what you would want from a tablet in this price range, with some extras. The Fire HD 10 Kids offers the same specs as the standard Fire HD 10, but in a kid-friendly case that should survive the majority of bumps and knocks. Other specs include a 2-megapixel front-facing camera and a MicroSD card slot for expanded storage. The Fire HD 10 Plus upgrades the device to 4GB of RAM, has wireless charging, and offers a more premium soft-touch finish on the back. On the front, you’ll get a 1,080p, 10.1-inch display, which Amazon says is 10% brighter than the previous-generation Fire HD 10. The new Fire HD 10 features an octa-core processor with 3GB of RAM and either 32GB or 64GB of storage. But now, the company has unveiled its most powerful tablets yet: The Amazon Fire HD 10, Fire HD 10 Plus, and Fire HD 10 Kids. Both tablets are up for pre-order on Amazon now, shipping on May 26th.Amazon’s Fire line of tablets aren’t necessarily known for their processing power - they’re generally low in price and offer a solid option for those who simply want a device for browsing the web and watching videos. In addition to the $50 wireless charging dock (made by budget brand favorite Anker), Amazon is also selling both tablets in a "productivity bundle," which comes with a Fintie wireless keyboard and a year of Microsoft 365, starting at $220 for the base model Fire 10 HD. ![]() The Fire HD Plus has the same storage capacity, but that RAM boost is worth it for a $30 price bump. The Plus model also gets a "premium" soft-touch finish. Previously the 10-inch tablets needed an adapter case for wireless charging now it's built-in, like the Fire HD 8 Plus. Wireless charging is a rare feature on tablets, but Amazon started including it on some premium models last year, because it makes it easy to turn them into Alexa smart displays with the sold-separately dock. The HD 10 Plus keeps a more or less identical physical design, but boosts RAM up to a welcome 4GB and adds Qi-compatible wireless charging. Yes, that price is "ad-supported," and it'll cost you $15 to get rid of them. The 10 HD starts at $149.99 for the 32GB model, coming in black, denim, lavender, and olive color options. Storage is either 32GB or 64GB, plus whatever you can fit in the MicroSD card slot. Amazon says the body is thinner and lighter, with a stronger aluminosilicate screen that's 10% brighter.Thankfully Amazon kept the USB-C charging added to the last model, which isn't a given with tablets at this price point. That's still on the low side for any Android device these days. It keeps the same 10-inch, 1080p display as the previous model and a similar 2.0GHz octa-core processor, but boosts RAM up to 3GB. Amazon says this is better for video conferencing. It also moves the speakers to the bottom edge, giving the entire package a more conventional design for tablets of this size. ![]() In terms of physical design, the refreshed Fire HD 10 now places its front-facing camera in a landscape position instead of portrait. ![]() It's been about a year and a half since the 10-inch version got an upgrade, but today Amazon is taking pre-orders for the new Fire HD 10 and Fire HD 10 Plus. Amazon's tablets aren't meant to set the world on Fire, but they're probably some of the most popular on the planet thanks to low price tags and integration with the company's retail empire. ![]()
