Amazon is rolling out a new line of Fire tablets, including a new $90 model aimed at families stuck at home due to COVID-19.
Features of the HD8 include 30% faster processing speed than previous models and 12 hours of battery life. The higher-level tablets have 50% more storage capacity and a faster processor, as well as wireless charging and a six-month subscription to Kindle Unlimited, which features digital books, magazines and games.
Unlike Apple, whose iPad tablets sell for $329 and up, Amazon’s strategy is to try to gain a wide customer base for less-expensive Fire tablets and then sell a range of video, audio and e-book content through the devices.
