The HD 6 uses a MediaTek MT8135 processor, a quad-core ARM Cortex-A15 design with two cores running at 1.2GHz and two at 1.5GHz. While that's decent, it fell short of the aforementioned Asus tablet's 6 hours, 49 minutes and the LG tablet's 8 hours and 2 minutes. We got 5 hours, 47 minutes of video playback time at maximum brightness with the Fire HD 6. So while Wi-Fi speeds won't lead here, they'll get the job done. That's important, because 8Mbps is what Netflix recommends for 1080p, HD streaming. Tested against our Meraki MR16 ($499.51 at Amazon) (Opens in a new window) router connected to a fast corporate network, we managed to pull at least 8Mbps down at distances up to 50 feet. Even on the 2.4GHz band, Wi-Fi performance falls well behind cutting-edge devices like the Apple iPad Air ($389.99 at eBay) (Opens in a new window) and iPhone 6, but of course, that's not what we're really competing with. The size makes the HD 6 perfect as a color ebook reader, especially for kids' books and comics it's easy to hold in one hand, although it's pretty heavy. There's a large black bezel around the screen, but that's fine at this price point. The 252ppi, 1,280-by-800 screen is brighter and more even than you'd expect in a sub-$100 tablet, and thanks to the small screen size, it looks pretty tight.

The matte plastic back doesn't quite wrap around, but there's a sturdy-looking plastic bumper around the edge. It comes in black, blue, pink, white, or yellow, and has an angled back with just enough design to make it not look generic. The Fire HD 6 is a chunky, solid tablet at 6.7 by 4.1 by 0.4 inches (HWD) and a surprisingly heavy 10.1 ounces. It's much more curated, but much less open much easier to use and more child-friendly, but better for browsing Amazon's content than your own.

That's a little disingenuous, because like all prior Kindle Fires, the Fire HD 6 is a very different experience than a generic Android tablet. They're companies making inexpensive, poorly designed, often painful-to-use Android tablets that cost about $50, and we don't recommend any of them.Īmazon said it's been selling a lot of these inexpensive tablets, and getting a lot of them back, so the company decided to make one that people wouldn't want to return. I don't know if you've ever heard of Chromo, Dragon Touch, Neutab, or Prontotec, but they all come up on the first page of an search for tablets (Opens in a new window). But its very limited storage and restricted OS prevent it from becoming more. If you're looking for a kid's tablet or something to browse Amazon content on, it's a good deal. The Amazon Fire HD 6 ($99, 8GB) is the first under-$100 tabletwe feel comfortable recommending, but not without reservations. Very little internal storage, with no memory card slot.
