| Pixel Density Pixel Density (PPI) is refers to the concentration of pixels on a particular display, measured in pixels per inch (ppi). Pixel density is calculated by dividing the diagonal pixel resolution of a display by its diagonal size, higher pixel density better display quality. | 149 ppi |
| Features | IPS LCD |
Platform
| Operating System OS => Every computer system run on a base software called Operating System (OS). Operating System controls all basic operations of the computer (such as smartphone, PDAs, tablet computers and other handheld devices).

SIM cards can also be used by a phone to store limited amounts of data, such as phone numbers and text messages. | No |
Hardware
| Chipset Chipset is a group of integrated circuits designed to perform one or a more dedicated functions, often with real time computing constraints, Popular smartphones are equipped with more advanced embedded chipsets that can do many different tasks depending on their programming. | MediaTek MT8135 |
| CPU | Quad-core, 1500 MHz |
| GPU GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) is a single-chip processor designed to rapidly manipulate and alter memory to accelerate the creation of images in a frame buffer intended for output to a display, This includes things such as lighting effects, object transformations, and 3D motion. | IMG PowerVR G6200 |
| RAM RAM (Random Access Memory) is a type of computer memory that can be accessed randomly, any byte of memory can be accessed without touching the preceding bytes that allows information to be stored and accessed quickly from random locations. RAM is the most common type of memory found in computer systems, smartphones, tablets and other electronic devices. | 1GB |
| Internal Storage Internal Storage is a data storage space (flash memory) mostly used in smartphones, tablets and other electronic devices where operating system, apps, music, photos, videos, files and other user data Is stored. | 32 GB |
| Memory Card Slot Memory Card Slot is a special slot for inserting a memory card. Memory cards allow you to expand the phone's built-in memory, A memory card (sometimes called a flash memory card or a storage card) is a small storage medium used to store data such as text, pictures, audio, and video, for use on small, portable or remote computing devices such as mobile phones, mp3 players, digital cameras. | Yes |
| Sensors Sensors are electronic components that detects and responds to some type of input from the physical environment. The specific input could be light, heat, motion, moisture, pressure and location, The output is generally a signal that is converted to use in computing systems, a location sensor, such as a GPS receiver is able to detect current location of your electronic device. | Accelerometer, gyro |
| 3.5mm jack | Yes |
| Loudspeaker | Yes, with stereo speakers |
| Audio Technology | Dolby Atmos |
Battery
| Capacity Battery Capacity is a measure (typically in Amp-hr) of the charge stored by the battery, and is determined by the mass of active material contained in the battery. The battery capacity represents the maximum amount of energy that can be extracted from the battery under certain conditions. | 3800 mAh |
| Battery Life | 8 hours |
| Charging | USB charging |
Camera
| Rear Camera Camera is able to capture photographs and usually videos, The most important characteristics of a camera are the resolution (measured in megapixels), lens focus type (fixed or automatic), higher megapixel cameras are known to capture higher quality photos, but not always a good measurement of the photos quality. | 5 MP |

Reviews

I felt the HD 8 was a decent tablet. It had good build quality and was very thin. The display was bright enough for indoor use. The modified Android experience worked fairly well, though there was some lag. - Dr.E (BigMac MacDonald Lee) |
| User Reviews 2 |
I felt it was lightweight and fast, with great speed for web browsing and videos. In speed tests, it loaded pages as fast as an iPad which has a faster processor. The HD 10 also had better audio than cheaper Fire tablets. - The Deal Guy |
| User Reviews 3 |

Pros: - Good performance for the price - Sharp, vivid IPS LCD display - Expandable storage via microSD card Cons: - Lower resolution display - More pixelation on the 10" screen - Camera is basic, mostly for quick shots |
Amazon recently released an updated version of their popular Fire HD 10 tablet.
The Fire HD 10 sports a sharp 10.1-inch 1080p display, a significant upgrade over the previous model's lower resolution screen.
The IPS panel is bright and vivid. The new quad core processor provides snappy performance when browsing, streaming video or playing games.
The HD 10 could keep up with an iPad in speed tests despite Apple's faster chip.
The HD 10 runs Amazon's Fire OS, a customized version of Android. The simple interface omits Google's apps and services.
The OS intuitive and preferred its streamlined approach. The OS focuses on easy access to Amazon content like books, videos and music.
The HD 10's speakers as a standout feature. The dual Dolby Atmos speakers deliver louder, richer audio than cheaper Fire tablets.
One expert called them the best speakers he's heard on a budget slate. The HD 10 also includes expandable storage via microSD card.
While the HD 10 impressed as a media consumption device, its cameras come up short for photography.
The rear 5MP and front VGA cameras are basic. But they work fine for video calls and quick shots.
Overall reviewers called the Fire HD 10 an excellent value. The combination of good build quality, vivid screen, smooth performance and loud speakers make it one of the top budget tablets around.
Reviewers agreed it's an easy recommendation for Prime members wanting an affordable iPad alternative focused on Amazon content.
