The Good

Very affordable at $79.99 with special offers • Display is good enough for ‘consumption • ‘ with great color accuracy • Sound is surprisingly balanced • Front facing camera is good for video calls • Hands-free Alexa

The Bad

Processor is average but slow for heavy tasks and games • No access to the Google Play Store for apps • YouTube is not supported

The Bottom Line

At $80, the Fire HD 8 can be a cheap Echo Show replacement, or a basic Android tablet that works well for consuming media.
