    A compact surprise

    I purchased the first one of these (used) as a gift for a friend who needed something just a bit bigger than her phone for browsing the web when she does't want to get out her laptop. After testing it thoroughly, I was quickly impressed by the sound, the screen clarity, and the zippy responsiveness. I was worried about the 8gb limit, but since I mostly stream video, internet TV, music, and podcasts, and I'm not one to keep a lot of files on a tablet, it wasn't an issue during my time testing it. I liked it so much, I went back for another, since this fits in my purse even better than a 7" model and I notice very little difference in the screen size, due to the aspect ratio. If you're looking for a value device and/or one to carry with you without worry of theft or breaking it, this is an amazing value. This is also perfect for my friend who will use it similarly.

    Heavier than other Kindles, Lightning fast computing!

    When I got the tablet, it came in a box similar to a VHS tape sleeve. Having read that it was six inches in size, it finally hits you when you compare it to the preceding kindles. Its the smallest of all of them and surprisingly a bit heavier and thicker than the last one. But if you can get by the "size of a paperback screen", its lightning fast, full of extras and the rear camera has excellent definition. The buttons are in new places as well as the power jack, takes a bit to get used to them. Just be aware that some stock pics are of a 7" model (and there are 3 different 7" models fyi). The lower price reflects this unit very well, and with the screen resolution and fast processor it is a good value. Eight hours of battery life is pretty good, might get more if the battery saver is turned on.

    Very portable and compact

    I have three of these Kindles - all 6" but in different colors. I keep one on my nightstand in my bedroom and one on the end table beside my chair in the living room. The third one is tucked away in the event that either of my other two fail. I love the size and the portability. The battery life response is really yes and no. If you are connected to wi-fi and allow your aps to push notifications, it will eat up your battery. Also, using it to play games for long periods of time eats battery. Reading a book does not. I find I charge mine about every other day. So, it depends on how you use it. I really like the new OS that looks more like a computer or tablet from competitors. The carousel OS was clunky and annoying.

    A smaller, entry level workhorse.

    Other than the Amazon Fire ads on my unit, which are intrusive, this 6" Fire meets a variety of needs. Silk is a snappy browser. And multiple browsing windows/multitasking works fine. Though a little thick, tablet fits looser men's shirt and jeans pockets (though front jeans pocket carry is a bit too much for sitting). This was a major reason for going with this now discontinued size. It has replaced my Surface RT as my casual, go-to browsing device. Being portable and wifi accessible, it allows me to function well while tethered to older, smaller smartphones, enabling me to side-step the race to ever larger smartphone screens. Downside is it does not have access to Google Play, but the Amazon approved apps cover most of my needs at present. Kindle reading and Amazon Prime video watching are both very good, as might be expected.

    At the right price, this is a perfect little tablet

    When updated to the latest Fire OS and then "tweaked" a little to have Google Play Store running on it, this is a VERY nice little portable device. I have used it to download Netflix content onto and take it with me on planes - it has Bluetooth and a headphone jack, and if you add a cover/stand, it is the perfect size to take to watch movies on the plane with. The screen is outstanding! The only drawback would be that there is no micro SD slot, so you are limited to the ~14G of storage for apps and data, but if you manage that well, it's a very convenient and capable piece of gear. I have bought several for family members, and they all love them!

    I love this 6" Kindle Fire

    Perfect size little tablet! Fits in your pocketbook or coat pocket. Use for reading books and also for a tablet. Fast and 'zippy'. Good battery life. I do not know about games as as I do not play games but it does get all the basic apps plus more. You can watch reviews on You Tube to learn more about that. ( It uses a Silk Browser and does not have Google Play Store.) There are a lot of nice covers and cases that fit it online at Amazon. The screen is clear and bright and easy to read.

    The Perfect SMALL Travel Companion for Streaming

    I love it, because I have many size screens for video, but wanted a compact size, and did not want to use my phone every day for streaming. This is great for streaming, but due to limited internal memory, you are not able to download many shows to watch in your library. Also.....there is no way to expand the memory, but for the 30 bucks I paid for it, I have no complaints. It was in almost new condition. This model is discontinued, so grab one where you can.

    Great packaging and overall great condition. Didn't even know it had a case but hey now I got something to protect it with. This tablet is probably the most underrated tablet of all time and it still performs perfectly as it did when it was new 10 years ago.

    Great tablet for a great price!

    Although it took some time to get used to some of the features, I think the tablet itself is a steal for this price! The battery lasts longer than my Samsung table. The screen is a good size. I bought this for my nephew. Hopefully he'll like it!
