![]() The Fire HD 10 Plus sports the same design as its predecessor, featuring those thick bezels that are a callback to the old days. Outside of the soft-touch back and the buttons all placed on one-side, it might be time for a redesign. But I still have some gripes about the tablet on the whole. Instead, it’s just your run-of-the-mill Android tablet with a custom skin slapped on top and more than a few Amazon-only features. It’s not like I was hoping that the Fire HD 10 Plus would light the world on fire, because this tablet isn’t designed to be a laptop replacement. And Amazon has done a wonderful job at putting your favorite content right in front of you. There’s even a dedicated “Games” app that acts as a hub for all of your downloaded games. Just like every other Fire tablet, you can enjoy the fruits of your Prime subscription with Prime Video, Kindle, and Amazon Music. If there’s one thing that Amazon knows how to do, it’s making content easy to consume. But it’s still pretty great to have the option to slap on a keyboard and head to a local coffee shop. The keyboard itself is a bit cramped for someone who is used to working from either an iPad Pro or Surface Pro X. Amazon has tapped popular case-maker Fintie to provide the keyboard. Being able to fire up your emails or get some work done with Word is extremely helpful. You may not think that the Fire HD 10 Plus is really designed for productivity, but since you can download all of Microsoft’s Office apps, it’s a step in that direction. This bundle includes a detachable Bluetooth keyboard, along with a 12-month Microsoft 365 subscription. Ith the unit that I received, not only have I been using the wireless charger, but this is also the Productivity Bundle. This can be turned off in the notification shade, but if you want to throw your tablet on a wireless charger and turn it into a digital picture frame, this is fantastic. Show Mode is activated immediately, providing you with the same interface that you’ll find on an Echo Show. It’s not super-fast wireless charging, but when docked, your Fire HD 10 Plus will be transformed into an Echo Show of sorts. The first of which is a wireless charger, along with a wireless charging stand that is made by Anker. Kicking off the story of compromises, Amazon may not have upgraded the processor this go-’round, but it makes up for it with some nifty features. Just don’t expect it to be able to withstand the rigors of heavy photo editing, or high-end games like Genshin Impact. And that includes sitting down to respond to some emails (more on that later), along with playing some of the best games from the Amazon App Store. In day-to-day use, the Fire HD 10 Plus will be able to handle just about everything that you throw at it. ![]() This tablet also offers either 32GB or 64GB of expandable storage, and that microSD card slot will definitely come in handy if you want to load this up with movies and TV shows. You’ll get a bump up to 4GB of RAM, which is more than the standard Fire HD 10’s 3GB. There’s a catch when it comes to the “improved” specs with the Fire HD 10 Plus. All the while, throwing in a few perks, for those who like having options. It’s taking the largest tablet in the lineup, keeping the same coat of paint, but upgrading the engine. Amazon Fire HD 10 Plus: Things we likeĪmazon isn’t trying to re-invent the wheel here with the Fire HD 10 Plus. Plus, it’s not like you’ll have to worry about trying to find exactly where to plug in the USB-C cable and the headphone jack is a nice touch. On the right side, you have the volume up and down buttons, along with the power button, USB-C port, and 3.5mm headphone jack.Īdmittedly, there’s a lot going on with having everything on one side, but it’s not anything that you can’t get used to. In its natural orientation (landscape), you’ll find the webcam embedded in the “top” bezel, which continues to be something iPad Pro fans are waiting for. The matte finish on the tablet makes it soft to the touch, and paired with the rounded edges, the Fire HD 10 Plus is extremely comfortable to hold. But the Fire HD 10 comes in four different colors, so if you want some spice in your life, you’re better off going with the standard Fire HD 10. ![]() The biggest difference with the HD 10 Plus is the Slate color option, which is the only color you can get. Instead, Amazon is keeping its focus on affordable tablets for everyone, while giving Amazon subscribers access to their favorite content. You won’t find any faster refresh rates or a UHD display, but that’s not the point here. ![]() That’s because the display is exactly the same, including the same 1920 x 1080 resolution. Extras: 3.5mm Headphone Jack / Wireless ChargingĪmazon Fire HD 10 Plus: Display and Designįor the most part, you won’t really be able to notice any differences between the Fire HD 10 Plus and the last-generation Fire HD 10.
