Amazon introduces the next-generation Fire 7 and Fire 7 Kids tablets

Amazon is refreshing its Fire 7 series this month with the launch of its next-generation Fire 7 and Fire 7 kids tablets.

The two Android tablets claim to offer double the RAM and 40% longer battery life than the previous models. Also, the Fire 7 Kids now includes a kid-proof protective case, a one-year subscription to Amazon Kids+, and a two-year worry-free guarantee.

The all-new Fire 7 tablet has a 30% faster 2GHz quad-core processor and double the RAM. With 40% more battery life, users will benefit from up to 10 hours of continuous browsing, watching videos, and more. The tablet comes with a 7-inch display (1024 x 600 pixels resolution) and features Alexa support.

The Fire 7 tablet packs 2GB RAM and either 16 or 32GB of internal storage and can be expanded up to 1TB via a microSD card. The tablet’s battery fully charges in about 4 hours using the USB-C power adapter. The tablet also features a 3.5mm stereo jack and integrated speaker.

On the back, the tablet features a 2-megapixel camera with 720p HD video recording, and there’s also a similar camera on the front.

The Fire 7 Kids has the same specifications but comes with that kid-proof protective case and a year’s subscription to Amazon Kids+, hence will be more expensive.
