This past month has been one of many ups and downs in my life! Three weeks ago, I hit the wall when my iPad died!
Now that my mother has joined our family, I find that I need to keep track of so many things and I did this quite easily on my iPad. So when it died, I was in a state of panic.
I don't have the funds to buy a new replacement! The one I had was a refurbished model and it worked great for many years. I was not going to shell out lots of money for a new one!
My other half has been using an Amazon Fire tablet for a couple of years now and he was always touting its ease of use and how much time he was able to spend on his tablet without recharging it.
So the next thing I knew is that my better half had gone ahead and bought me a new Fire Tablet 10!
At first I was not convinced that I would like it as much as he loves his, but after this first three weeks I can honestly say that I'm not looking back. The price point for this Fire Tablet 10 is just so reasonable, it really is affordable for all people. If you get it today or tomorrow, with Prime Days you will save yourself a nice little bundle.
It was easy to set up and all my reading apps, games, Facebook and more are all installed and working as well as ever!
My calendar with all my mother's appointments and medication lists and all things regarding her health and care are all in a nice little package on my new tablet! Nothing is missing and nothing gets missed either.
The "Home" screen looks much like the iPad and getting used to some new and different ways to do things has just taken me a couple of days to figure out. I must add that I'm not the brightest when it comes to technology.
One other thing that the other half did for me was to make sure that I had a screen protector and a good strong case for my new Fire Tablet! Even though the cost of this tablet isn't near what a new iPad costs, doesn't mean that we don't want to protect this new investment. Plus I can be a real "klutz" sometimes! Better to be safe than to be sorry (in my world those are words I live by).
The camera works well too! As you can see from this picture of my other half, I was able to edit the picture right on my tablet and share it with you! Handsome guy, right?
So far I am thrilled with the new replacement for my very sick (almost dead) iPad. The only real difference between the two is a matter of weight. The Fire Tablet is a little bit heavier than the iPad. But with the right case and ability to hold it while walking around, this is a minor point.
I would highly recommend this Fire Tablet to anyone who finds themselves in my sorry position of having to say good bye to an old friend (my iPad) and hello to a new way of doing things (my brand new Fire Tablet)..
Wishing everyone a wonderful summer ahead! May your days be full of great new technology!
