Amazon Fire HD 8 Plus or Newer Model?

I saw that Amazon has this for $54.99 right now which isn’t too shabby at all. I mainly would use it for ebooks and comic books reading and some streaming. Would the HD 8 Plus suffice or should look into a newer model?

Should I buy a Paperwhite?

It's still useless for my personal need since I always use Calibre to manage my library anyway, so sideloading to my Kobo & Kindle (Koreader) is always easy Maybe if I want to read manga again I would consider it, but my existing Fire HD 8 tablet is my manga reading device in the first place, especi

New Kindle Fire 8 HD - Search bar

I just grabbed a new Kindle Fire HD 8. The only thing I really want from it is reading and being able to highlight it color. It’s not a bad tablet. I was going back and forth between getting this and getting a Lenovo Tab One 8.7” and just loading the Kindle app on it. Anyway, the only thing that

Best colour ereader for comic/manga?

Best value for money: Kindle Fire HD 8 for manga. Cheap as shit in any Amazon sale, perfect size for manga (and easily reading US comics too tbh). Kindle Fire HD 11. Full HD, lovely, vibrant screen and honestly feels like a 1:1 ratio for US comic pages. Overkill for manga and one you'd keep at home

Looking for a tablet for my mother

The Samsung A tablet or Lenovo m or IdeaPad tablet are solid. I use the Amazon Fire HD 8.It is solid, but you have to add the Google play store yourself; your dad could handle it, but it is easier to get Samsung or Lenovo.

Comic Device

I liked fire hd 8 inch tablet For me, that size was perfect for comics. Larger tablets were too heavy to hold in one hand.

Book lovers

A kindle would be perfect. A tablet would work well too, because you’d be able to have apps for multiple book sources (Kindle, Nook, Libby, Hoopla, Overdrive, etc). Edit to add- the Fire HD 8 is currently on sale for $65 through Amazon (32 GB with ads).

Which ereader do you recommend for MANGA? (see requirements)

One of those Android ereader like Boox Go/Poke 6 or Meebook M6 would suit your needs especially for those apps you mentioned on top of Mihon Btw, any reason you want to use PDF? If it’s just for manga, you’d fare better with CBZ format anyway 6” is regarded too small for manga and PDF when it comes

The New Nintendo Switch OLED as a Streaming machine.

The New Nintendo Switch OLED is my dream streaming machine. Currently I stream using Moonlight to my Fire HD 8 but if there was a device like the new switch I'd buy it immediately just to stream from my desktop to it.

Does anyone know if there is anything close in the market right now?
