Amazon launches two Fire HD 8 tablets Amazon announced two tablets launch on June 3 and start at $89.99.

Amazon just announced two new 8-inch Fire HD 8 tablet models that start at $89.99. The tablets begin shipping on June 3, and the entry-level model, the Fire HD 8, has a faster processor than before and 32GB of storage, giving you a better user experience.

The updated model, the Fire HD 8 Plus tablet, apart from being much more robust, can be charged wirelessly with the appropriate charger, it has more RAM. It also comes with a six-month subscription to Kindle Unlimited, Amazon‘s book rental subscription service, all for the price of $ 109.99. These devices also have microSD card slots, which can expand the built-in storage. The battery life of both devices has been increased by up to about 12 hours of use. The new Fire Tablets are loaded with USB-C, which is the standard charger for most Android laptops, tablets, and phones today.

But Amazon didn’t forget the little ones around the house during the quarantine, it’s also releasing the Fire HD 8 Kids Edition a kid-friendly version for $139.99 that comes with a protective, kid-friendly case and includes a one-year subscription to Amazon FreeTime Unlimited, a subscription service for books, videos and games especially aimed at children.

The positive of this announcement is that this suggests that Amazon‘s electronic products supply chain is sufficiently operational for the launch of new products, unlike other large companies that have had to postpone their launches. According to the Amazon company, these new models of Fire Tablets are being launched since a large proportion of the world population is under some kind of quarantine to stop the spread of the coronavirus.

Today, tablets are generally well positioned for the types of tasks people do at home, including consuming content, as they have a larger screen than a smartphone. Amazon‘s bet is that, due to quarantine, sales of tablets and other large electronic products have increased in the United States. This year, TV, tablet and PC sales increased 33% compared to data from the first week of May 2019.

What’s interesting is that Amazon‘s strategy behind this great offer is simple. It’s about selling tablets at low prices, and then making money when consumers use them to buy digital content like movies, games, and books at their store.

On the other hand, some of the Amazon devices with the Fire HD 8 Plus are also combined in a free trial period with Amazon‘s content services, which can help increase your subscriber numbers for those services. Another plus point is that Amazon tablets undoubtedly cost much less than Apple’s competing iPads, which start at +$320.
