Amazon Fire 7 (2017) Review

The Amazon Fire 7 (2017) is a budget tablet that is designed to be an affordable option for those who want a basic device for web browsing, email, and media consumption. With a 7-inch display with a resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels, the device is not the sharpest or brightest screen around, but it gets the job done. It also has a quad-core 1.3 GHz processor, 1GB of RAM, and either 8GB or 16GB of internal storage, which can be expanded via a microSD card.

The Fire 7’s performance is adequate for basic tasks like web browsing and media consumption, but it can struggle with more demanding apps or multitasking. The device runs on Amazon’s custom version of Android, Fire OS 5, which is designed to be easy to use but can feel limited compared to other Android tablets. Furthermore, the has a basic 2-megapixel rear camera and a front-facing VGA camera, which are not ideal for photography but are adequate for video calls. Moreover, the Fire 7 tablet can last up to 8 hours on a single charge thanks to its 2980 mAh battery..

Overall, the Amazon Fire 7 (2017) is a decent budget tablet for basic tasks and media consumption, but it may not be suitable for those who need a more powerful device or a wider selection of apps. However, it could be a good option for those who are looking for an affordable tablet for their children or for a secondary device.
