Amazon this month launched a new tablet designed specifically for kids in the form of the Fire Kids Edition tablet that is equipped with a 7-inch display offering a resolution of 1024 x 600 pixels and 171 ppi.
The tablet measures 219.0 x 138.0 x 25.5 mm in size and is equipped with a 1.3 GHz quad-core processor, supported by 1GB of RAM.
Internally there is 8GB of storage, 5GB of which is available to the user. But up to 128GB of additional storage can be added using the microSD card slot, where movies, TV shows, music, photos, personal videos and apps can also be stored.
Amazon explains a little more about the design of its tablet for kids
The Fire Kids Edition starts with Amazon Free Time, which is built from the ground up just for kids. The background color and fonts change to a kid-friendly design, kids only see the titles you allow them to access, the home screen shows recently viewed titles, and they can even visually browse content based on characters or themes like “Elmo,” “Dinosaurs,” or “Puppies.”
Features of the new Fire Kids Edition Tablet include:
- Up to $109 in savings on Fire, 1 year of Amazon Free Time Unlimited and a Kid Proof-case, plus a worry-free 2-year warranty.
- It's not a toy, it's a fully featured tablet with a 7" IPS display and front and rear cameras. Add a microSD card for up to 128GB of additional storage.
- 2-year warranty: if it breaks, return it and we'll replace it for free. No questions asked.
- Unlimited, free access to 10,000 children's books, movies, TV shows, educational apps, games and 1 year of Amazon Free Time Unlimited.
- Best-in-class parental controls that allow you to manage usage limits, content access, and educational goals.
The Fire Kids Edition tablet is equipped with a battery capable of providing up to 7 hours of use and can fully recharge in less than 6 hours.
