If you use 200% of Amazon Prime, you should definitely buy a Fire tablet! Fire HD 8 Plus is now a great deal

"Amazon Prime" available for 500 yen per month (4,900 yen per year for a one-year contract). Prime members can use Amazon's "super-fast delivery service" to receive products in the shortest delivery time. There are many special prices for "Prime members only". It will pay for itself in no time. In the United States, the service is offered for 1,400 yen ($12.99) per month and 12,800 yen ($119) annually. Prices in Japan are less than half that, so the cost performance is high at a level that can't be expressed.

In addition, the great thing about "Amazon Prime" is that it offers services other than fast delivery and limited prices. Unlimited viewing of movies, dramas, and variety shows with Prime Video. With "Prime Music", you can listen to over 2 million songs as much as you want. "Prime Reading" offers unlimited reading from business books to self-development books. Amazon Photos offers unlimited storage, so you can save as many photos and videos as you like.

In addition, there are plenty of services for women, such as "Prime Wardrobe" where you can try on clothes before purchasing, and "Amazon Fresh" which delivers fresh food and daily necessities in bulk (limited to target areas).

I have been an Amazon Prime member since the early days, but to be honest, I wasn't able to use the service much other than "shopping" until I purchased a certain terminal. However, by purchasing a certain terminal, the frequency of use changed drastically. Satisfaction with Amazon Prime, which was enough for "shopping", has exceeded 200% at once.

One such device is the Fire Tablet. The UI is optimized for Amazon Prime, so you can reach the service you want to use with just one tap. The "Fire tablet" will tell you in an easy-to-understand manner what services are provided by Amazon Prime. Once you get used to working with Fire Tablet, you can never go back to other devices. If you are an Amazon Prime member but do not use it for anything other than "shopping", please purchase a "Fire tablet". You will know the fun of Amazon Prime dozens of times more than before!

How to buy Amazon Fire HD 8 Plus cheaper than Fire 7

Amazon just released the latest 10th generation tablet "Fire HD 8" series the other day. The performance has been greatly improved from the previous model, and if you buy a Fire tablet now, we definitely recommend the latest "Fire HD 8" series.

Currently, only the Fire HD 8 Plus, which has the highest specs in the series, is given a 2,000 yen OFF coupon. If you use the coupon, it will be the same price as the lower model "Fire HD 8". At this point, the reason for recommending "Fire HD 8" is "zero". That's why the Fire HD 8 Plus is worth buying. I'll explain why later.

First, let me tell you how to get a better deal on the Fire HD 8 Plus. This method is only recommended for those who use Amazon frequently. On the other hand, if you are a frequent user, you will be able to buy something other than "Fire HD 8 Plus" at a great price, so it is information that I would like you to know.

It is a way to shop using "Amazon charge (cash payment)". When shopping on Amazon, most people pay with a credit card. However, if you use Amazon charge (cash payment), you can receive a certain amount of point back when charging. Click here for details on pointback.

The larger the amount you charge at once, the higher the point return rate, and you can receive a maximum return of 2.5%. If you charge 90,000 yen, you will receive points equivalent to 2,250 yen. For those who use Amazon frequently, this return rate is definitely a big one. A 2,000 yen OFF coupon has already been issued for "Fire HD 8 Plus", so it is possible to receive a discount equivalent to 4,250 yen in total. The lower model of "Fire HD 8", cheaper than "Fire 7".

And from here, I will explain why you should definitely choose "Fire HD 8 Plus" and how to further increase the discount amount to MAX.

There are two big advantages to choosing a high-end model. First, it supports wireless charging. This is the first Fire tablet ever, and no other model has wireless charging. Even across the tablet, it's very unusual.

In addition, the performance of this wireless charging is excellent, and it can charge faster than wired. The Fire HD 8 Plus has a wired charging speed of up to 9W. This is 4W faster than the lower model Fire HD 8.

But the Fire HD 8 Plus wireless charging is even faster! It can be charged with "10W". Wireless is faster than wired, which is out of the ordinary. High performance beyond common sense. By the way, the maximum wireless charging speed of the iPhone 11, the latest model of the iPhone, is 7.5W. The Fire HD 8 Plus is 2.5W faster.

Then memory capacity. The Fire HD 8 has 2GB of memory, while the Fire HD 8 Plus has 3GB. So what is the advantage of having a large memory capacity?

Smartphones and tablets use "memory" and "storage" to read and write data. The storage side is processing the portion exceeding the memory capacity. The processing speed of memory is overwhelmingly faster, so when the capacity of memory is full, the speed will slow down at once. Perhaps everyone has had this experience.

Increasing the memory capacity means that the amount of data that can be processed at high speed increases. The amount of data that "Fire HD 8 Plus" can process at high speed is "1.5 times" that of "Fire HD 8". In addition to wireless charging, the Fire HD 8 Plus also has fast processing speeds.

Based on the two points of "high-speed wireless charging" and "3GB large-capacity memory", even if there is no coupon for 2,000 yen OFF, it is said that you should buy "Fire HD 8 Plus". , could you understand?

When you buy the Fire HD 8 Plus, what you want to have is the accessories. If you wait a little longer, there may be various third-party sales, but in the case of "Fire HD 8 Plus", we recommend purchasing genuine accessories.

The reason is the wireless charging stand. The Fire HD 8 Plus comes with its own wireless charging stand. Of course, just put "Fire HD 8 Plus" on it and it will start charging quickly. If you do the initial settings, "Show mode" will automatically start up, making it a smart speaker compatible with the voice AI assistant Alexa. This alone will raise your status. And this wireless charging stand will charge with the case attached. Case thickness up to 4mm.

However, depending on the material, wireless charging may not work, so you need to be a little careful when choosing a case. It will take time to get out of the third party, and maybe the wireless charging stand won't work. After all, it is a mistake not to wear a case.

The Fire HD 8 Plus comes with a genuine dedicated cover. If this is the case, it has been confirmed to work with the wireless charging stand, and can be installed at the same time as the release. After all, genuine products have many advantages.

Furthermore, there are other benefits to having genuine accessories. You can get a discount of "2,000 yen" by purchasing a 3-piece set. This is different from the currently distributed 2,000 yen OFF coupon. In other words, you can receive a discount of 4,000 yen in total. Originally, the total amount was "20,060 yen", but now it is "16,060 yen". Furthermore, if you use Amazon charge to receive a return of "2,250 points", the total discount will be equivalent to "6,250 yen". In real "13,810 yen". This is already as cheap as another model.

Genuine products have a strong image of being a little expensive, but there is no doubt about the quality. On top of that, the discount is also applied, so there is no reason not to buy it.

Let's delve a little deeper into the Fire HD 8 Plus accessories, since we've got a discount worth 6,250 yen. I got a wireless charging stand and a genuine special cover, so next is the "film". The size and position of the front camera have changed from the previous generation, so of course you can't use the old model film. Since it is before the release date of the main body, I thought that the film had not appeared yet, but there is already a sales page. Professional manufacturers are still fast. It will be in the reservation stage as well as the main body, but if you make a reservation now, it will arrive in the shortest time.

Prices are about the same everywhere. Among them, I would like to recommend "Miyavix". I bought the film for my Xiaomi Mi Note 10 before and the quality was top notch. There are currently three types available: anti-reflection, blue light cut, and scratch repair. The one I've used is the "wound repair" type. I don't know how it works, but the scratches really disappeared on their own, and I was surprised several times.

And if you want to slow down "Internet searches" and "email messages", which are said to be the longest tablet users (according to research by MM Research Institute), a "keyboard" is essential. The combination of "Fire HD 8 Plus" and a keyboard is the strongest if you specialize in "Internet searches" and "email messages". Due to my job, I use a lot of image editing software called Photoshop, so it is difficult to completely switch to a tablet environment. However, if you don't have that, the Fire HD 8 Plus will suffice. What is important when choosing a keyboard is whether it supports "Japanese layout", and it is also essential that it is "Bluetooth connection". I bought a cheap Bluetooth keyboard once, and it didn't have a Japanese layout, so I stopped using it. This is what I bought again. It can be linked not only with tablets but also with smartphones. It is also very useful when you want to type letters in a hurry on the go. It's also best to be able to switch between connections on multiple devices.

And one more bonus. "Fire HD 8 Plus" supports dual stereo speakers, so you can enjoy powerful sound even by itself. However, when you want to concentrate and watch a movie, the best thing is still "headphones". Earphones are fine, but headphones will enhance the sense of presence and immersion. We recommend "Soundcore Life Q10" from "Anker", which has a continuous playback time of up to "60 hours". While connecting to wireless Bluetooth, it supports high-resolution sound sources and enhances bass with its own technology. A high-performance model that can be connected by wire if you prepare a cable. Regarding the sound quality, I think it's clearer to look at the Amazon reviews than to give my personal opinion. Overall, it is highly evaluated as “more than the price”. I think you can expect more than the price of 3,000 yen. By the way, cashless payment is "5% OFF" now.

The Fire tablet series released by Amazon can be said to be the representative tablet. The 8-inch Fire tablet has been updated to the latest model. The lineup consists of three models: "Fire HD 8", "Fire HD 8 Plus" and "Fire HD 8 Kids Model". All models are compatible with AI voice assistant "Alexa". Sales will start on June 3, and reservations are currently being accepted. It is expected that it will be difficult to obtain it immediately after the release, so we recommend that you make an early reservation.

Fire HD 8, which is the basic model, is equipped with an 8-inch HD resolution liquid crystal display as the name suggests. Although the resolution is the same as the previous model, the brightness has increased by 10% and the contrast ratio has also increased from 700: 1 to 1000: 1. This enables sharper images and improved visibility.

The storage capacity has doubled, and two models of 32GB and 64GB are available. The capacity of the corresponding Micro SD card has also been expanded from 400GB to 1TB. You can now carry videos more comfortably without worrying about the capacity.

Increased memory capacity from 1.5GB to 2GB. The SoC clock frequency has also been significantly increased from 1.3GHz to 2.0GHz. Performance improved by 30% compared to the previous model. We have achieved a level of speedup that can be understood by operating.

The continuous drive time has also been increased, from a maximum of 10 hours to 12 hours. You can fully enjoy viewing prime videos and e-books without charging. Even when studying online, you don't have to worry about losing concentration due to running out of battery.

In addition, the Bluetooth version has increased from 4.1 to 5.0, which has quadrupled the communication range and doubled the transfer speed. The sound delay when playing games or watching videos is reduced, so the feeling of immersion is clearly increased.

The price is 9980 yen (tax included) for the 2GB/32GB model, which is less than 10,000 yen. The 2GB/64GB model is 11,980 yen (tax included). You can choose from three colors: blue, white, and black.

"Fire HD 8 Plus" is a higher model of "Fire HD 8", and the memory capacity has been increased from 2GB to 3GB. The charging speed has also increased from 5W to 9W, and performance has been improved in practical areas. It also supports wireless charging for the first time on a Fire tablet. With the optional charging stand, it also functions as an Alexa-enabled smart speaker.

The price is 11,980 yen (tax included) for the 3GB/32GB model and 13,980 yen (tax included) for the 3GB/64GB model. The price difference from the lower model is about 2,000 yen, so if you want to use it for a long time, it may be better to purchase "Fire HD 8 Plus".

The basic specifications of the Fire HD 8 Kids Model are the same as the Fire HD 8, with only 32GB of storage capacity. However, as a service for children, Amazon FreeTime Unlimited can be used free of charge for one year.

In addition, you can set detailed schedules according to usage, and use the parent dashboard to easily understand how much time you are spending on what and how much you are using it.

With a 2-year limited warranty, you can worry less about failures.

Kids model that incorporates services for children rather than mechanical specs. I thought it would be the same thing if I put a shockproof case on the Fire HD 8, but this is a completely different thing.

The "Fire HD 8 Kids Model" comes in three colors: purple, pink, and blue, and is priced at 14,980 yen (tax included).

An Internet connection is absolutely necessary to use a Fire tablet. It is dangerous to tether a Fire tablet with a SIM with a limited amount of communication, such as 3GB per month. Therefore, I would like to recommend "Rakuten UN-LIMIT", which is famous for "unlimited data usage".

"Rakuten UN-LIMIT" is limited to the first 3 million people, and "all-you-can-use data anywhere in Japan" and "all-you-can-eat domestic calls" will be provided free of charge for one year. With regard to "All-you-can-use data anywhere in Japan", you can use unlimited high-speed communication within the Rakuten line area (see HP for details), and high-speed communication up to 5 GB in partner areas (au lines) outside the Rakuten line area. If you think 5GB is not enough, don't worry. Even if 5GB is used up, unlimited data usage will continue at a maximum speed of 1Mbps.

To use "Unlimited Domestic Calls", you will need an app called "Rakuten Link". It was distributed only for Android, but finally supports iOS. Now available for iPhone.

In addition, we are running a limited campaign of "3,000 points gift" if you sign up online, and "full point return" for the administrative fee incurred at the time of application. You can actually get 3,000 points just by applying.

In addition, if you copy the "Rakuten Mobile ID" below and enter it at the time of contract, you will receive an additional "2,000 points".

This Rakuten Mobile ID is given when you sign up for "Rakuten UN-LIMIT". If you introduce someone using the Rakuten Mobile ID, you can earn up to 15,000 points (for 5 people) as pocket money.

However, this "Rakuten UN-LIMIT" can be used free of charge for one year only for the "first 3 million people". There is also a sense of security that "if you are not satisfied, you can cancel for free", and the application is flooded. When the number of users exceeds 3 million, the plan usage fee will be 2,980 yen per month. The current reduction campaign will probably end. There is no choice but to hurry.
