I recently dusted off my old Amazon Fire HD 8 for an international trip. I figured out how to download EPUB files to the kindle app on it and realized how much more I liked it than reading on off my phone browser. (Only downside is the added barrier to commenting :( )

Unfortunately, my Fire decided it had reached the end of its long life and has gone off to tablet heaven. I want to get a new device so I can continue reading like this, particularly while traveling. The one thing that keeps me from getting a standard ereader is that I also want the capability to stream videos (Netflix, prime video, crunchyroll) with decent quality.

Does anyone have device recommendations? Im trying to keep things around a max of about $200.

Also, would it be anymore difficult to download fics on a different device? I only just learned to how to and have been downloading on my phone then sharing to the kindle app to get it on my Fire Tablets kindle app. And does anyone know good ways to sort/organize such? Finally, would the layout of EPUB files change at all depending on the device?

Thank you!!

My very old HD 8 just died on me and I’m trying to figure out which to purchase.

I use it primarily as an ereader and for streaming video, particularly while traveling.

Basically, what I’m trying to figure out is if the better responsiveness and screen quality is worth the sacrifice of the bulkier size of the 10. Is the difference noticeable?

Hey! So I’m in Japan on a trip right now and my old Amazon Fire tablet has crapped out on me. Does anyone know if there’s anywhere in Japan I could get a new one? Specifically, an Amazon Fire HD 10 and preferably a physical/in-store location as I don’t want to rely on shipping arriving before I leave the country. I’m currently in Kyoto but will also be in Neko and near Tokyo.
