Product description
Some tablet buyers prioritize a larger screen for workspace, others want a compact device that’s easy to carry between rooms or take along.

When you switch to video, the tablet supports up to 14 hours of playback, so it can serve for a long stretch of viewing between charges.
The compact 8.7-inch format is also suited to checking social media, browsing fitness or finance apps, and playing games from Google Play. Amazon apps including Prime Video, Kindle, Audible, Amazon Music, and Amazon Luna are built in, with single sign-on and personalized content that syncs across devices. Subscriptions may be required for some apps and services.

Would a device that fits comfortably in one hand suit your routine better?
