There are several devices and the Fire 7 tablet from Amazon is one of them a combination of what they offer with their reduced price, are a clear challenge to get them, even though we haven’t thought about it before. And at this point, I speak from my own experience, because I have usually had Fire 7 for years, then called Kindle Fire, which I gave the most diverse uses that were not anticipated before, and which I consider more than amortized. time.

Unlike other manufacturers who have been forced over the years to make their devices more premium and consequently more expensive, Amazon’s Fire 7 policy remains unchanged: to offer a basic but functional and compliant tablet that also opens the door to the service ecosystem society, and to maximize its reach, it does so with a pricing policy that puts it within the reach of every pocket.

Amazon Fire 7: technical specifications

A cursory look at its specifications is enough Fire 7 is not designed to excel in performance. The file consists of MediaTek MT8168V / B quad-core SoC and two gigabytes of RAM they are the most visible sign, but it should not lead us to the mistake, because in fact they are more than sufficient for a large number of daily tasks for which performance is not an important factor, in some cases not even relevant.

In terms of storage capacity, Fire 7 is offered with 16 and 32 gigabytes. At this point, however, it is very important to keep in mind that the final capacity available to the user is significantly smaller, because we need to subtract the space occupied by the operating system and its components. According to Amazon itself, the actual final amounts are approximately 9.5 and 25 gigabytes, respectively. However, the good news is that in both cases, it can be expanded with a memory card of up to one terabyte.

The 7-inch Fire 7 screen is also nothing to write about, more than modest Resolution 1024 x 600 pixels. For lovers of high definition, it omits this from the list of devices for consuming content. However, I go back to what we talked about earlier when we talked about the basic equipment that you can just as easily use to read a book in bed, check messages at breakfast, or play SD content while traveling on public transport.

A peculiarity of Fire 7 that its users already know, as well as the Fire Stick device, is that as the operating system we do not find Android, but FireOS, Amazon ‘s own application store (yes, exactly the ones announced by Microsoft for its Windows 11 store). And this is, as I said before, one of the reasons to be part of Fire 7 is to attract more users to the ecosystem of Amazon devices, applications and services.

Another peculiarity that Amazon users are familiar with, but which surprises those who haven’t tried any yet, is that some of them can be purchased with or without promotional inserts. The first option is cheaper and the device, in this case Fire 7, will display an ad when the device is not in use. This means that your ad won’t interrupt your tablet activity, but will appear when you turn it on and wake it from sleep.
