I personally used the program back in 2021 to upgrade a pretty old (3rd generation) Fire 7. The exact details of how the program works varies from device to device. The trade-in program doesn't just cover Fire tablets - lots of other categories are covered, too, including phones, streaming media players, wireless routers, and more. You can trade-in your tablet online, or take it to certain Amazon Locker and participating uBreakiFix locations. And like everything else we test at CR, they’re purchased at retail to make sure we’re using the exact same product you would.This program allows you to 'sell' your unwanted Fire tablets back to Amazon, in return for a gift voucher and a discount on a new device from the current generation of tablets.Īmazon will then recycle or resell your device. Here are the models that did well in our tests.Īll the tablets in our ratings are graded on almost 240 data points. What’s the best Amazon Fire tablet for you? That depends on just what you’re looking for. Every Fire Tablet is available with a $15 discount if you buy a version that shows ads from Amazon on the lock screen. And you can score a discount anytime if you can put up with ads. Last, Fire tablets go on sale on Amazon’s retail platform quite regularly (particularly the Fire 7 and Fire 8 HD).
Available free on all Fire tablets, it also lets you subscribe to thousands of kid-friendly movies, TV shows, books, and apps via Amazon’s Kids+ service, which starts at $5 a month for a single account (or $3 a month for Prime members). On the other hand, if you’re already on the hook for a $119-per-year Amazon Prime subscription, Fire tablets provide you with easy access to movies, music, and books.Īnd FireOS has a good parental control system, called Amazon Kids, to help you manage content and screen time for your children.
The display quality and performance speeds are limited, too, but Asedillo says they’re acceptable for everyday tasks such as reading, web browsing, movie streaming, and standard game play. It also means you’ll be funneled toward buying content from Amazon.
