![]() ![]() The tablet charges really slowly, taking at least four hours with the included 9W power adaptor. The tablet will last a couple of days with mixed use or more than 12 hours streaming video over wifi, according to my testing – but of course, playing graphically intensive games significantly decreases battery life. A dedicated game mode automatically optimises the tablet for games, turning off hands-free Alexa and other background tasks when playing.īattery life is very good. That’s twice the amount of the previous-generation machine, which significantly improves multitasking. It has the same processor as the regular Fire HD 10, but with 1GB more of RAM for a total of 4GB. The Fire tablets are typically fast enough, but won’t beat more expensive rivals for raw performance. In other words, even one of the fastest microSD cards is twice as slow as the Fire tablet's internal storage.All the ports and buttons are in the right side of the tablet, while the microSD card slot for adding more storage space is in the bottom edge. We tested this 16GB SanDisk A2 microSD card (A2 cards are supposed to be the best for apps) with a 7th-generation Fire HD 8, and random read speeds were 3x slower than the internal storage, with even worse random write speeds. As we've covered in detail, even the fastest microSD cards are slower than the internal storage used by modern phones and tablets. ![]() However, moving apps to your SD card makes your Fire tablet slower. That means you can actually use an SD card as an extension to your internal storage. Older Fire tablets let you move some apps to the microSD card, but if you have a model released in the last few years, it's probably running on Android 7.0 Nougat or newer. No matter how you cut it, you don't have a lot of room to work with - especially if you're downloading movies and music for offline listening. The Amazon Fire HD 8 and 10 ship 32GB of storage while the Fire 7 includes a paltry 16GB.
