Product Information

We think that’s better for watching video but it feels a little odd in portrait mode where its proportions make us feel like we’re holding an enormous phone. Please include what you were doing when this page came up and the Cloudflare Ray ID found at the bottom of this page. As mentioned before, both cases can be had in a variety of colors and designs and come with built-in kickstands that double as carrying handles. But we started counting exactly how many times you have to hit “agree” to use devices when we review them since these are agreements most people don’t read and definitely can’t negotiate.

We have not had a chance to try the latest model yet, but based on previous releases we think it's safe to say it's marginally faster. And once they're reading chapter books rather than picture books, it's best to get them off an overstimulating LCD screen and onto an ebook reader or paper books. It still has a kickstand, and it's still protective, but it isn't nearly as big or bouncy as the younger-kids model. However it has so many more features and offers children an excellent, safe experience with increased freedom compared to the cheaper model. Parents can limit which apps children have access to, as well as how much time they spend on each activity.It comes with a thick case that can withstand drops, splashes, and maybe even the occasional temper tantrum.

The processors aren't the fastest, and you'll likely notice small fits of lag and a general lack of power compared to more expensive Android tablets. You can set up adult profiles on the kids' tablets too, and they'll just work like the grownup versions. The Fire HD 10 supports Echo Show mode, which lets you talk hands-free to Alexa, see the time, weather, trending topics, and other smart display features.

The Kids Pro model is meant for children ages 6 to 12 and comes with a slimmer plastic case that’s more akin to a standard tablet case. It does have a useful function row for media controls, brightness, and volume, plus there’s a shortcut to open the Fire HD 10’s split-screen mode so you can use two apps at the same time. I’m not a kid, so I handed the Fire HD 10 Kids and HD 10 Kids Pro tablets to my six- and nine-year-olds to get their take on them.

You'll also find a USB-C port for charging and transferring files, as well as a slot for microSD cards. They’ve been using 2017-era Fire HD 8 Kids tablets for a few years, so they have a good perspective on how the new models might be different from older tablets. Parents can add content to children's profiles to give them more access to apps and games like BBC iPlayer Kids or Seesaw Class. Also popular was the built-in kickstand on the case that let them put the tablet down when watching a video.
