They also likely would not have understood the differences other than size. I wanted to see if they would complain about the Fire 7 Kids feeling slow or anything else - and they didn't. I intentionally didn't tell them it was different in any way. Thankfully, Amazon Kids+ makes the process super easy and maintains all the settings I have enabled from their other tablets. The next step was to hand the table to my kids and let them go. Once I finished installing a few system updates that were waiting for the tablet when it arrived, I added both of my kid's profiles. Like most kids, as soon as they saw a new device in the house that looked like it could be for kids, they both got very interested. The Fire 7 Kids for 2022 feels just as solid as previous generations, and the new cases look great.īoth of my kids have been using Amazon Fire Kids tablets for a few years now, with my 6-year-old using the Fire HD 8 Kids, and my 9-year-old using the Amazon Fire HD 10 Kids Pro.

If you can afford the extra $20 to go from 16 to 32GB of internal storage, it's worth it because nearly half of the 16GB is taken up by the OS and required apps. The Fire 7 Kids now offers a 32GB storage option instead of only a 16GB version, and also bumped up the capacity support from 512GB to 1TB for microSD cards.

Thankfully, Amazon doubled the RAM to 2GB. But the previous version's internal hardware was beginning to get a bit long in the tooth, causing sluggish usability that even younger kids could notice.

While I mentioned earlier that the Fire 7 Kids tablet is an entry-level device suited for younger kids, it doesn't mean that the tablet performs poorly.
