The processor is an octa-core 2.0GHz chip, which should provide a significant step up in performance compared to the quad-core 1.8GHz it used to have. The battery has also received a boost, with up to 12 hours of mixed usage and faster charging, too. Amazon also says the tablet offers “enhanced Wi-Fi” for better connectivity.
Along with the new launch, Amazon also unveiled an updated Kids Edition bundle, which offers two years of guaranteed replacements, one free year of FreeTime Unlimited, and a durable standing case in addition to the tablet itself.
The tablet is available in four colors- black, white, blue and purple, while the Kids Edition bundle comes with a black tablet and a case in either pink, blue, or purple. The new Fire HD 10 is priced identically as the previous model. Both the tablet and the bundle are up for preorder today, with a shipping date set at October 30.
