The previous version of this tablet was already the best kids device out there, and one that earned a 5-star review from us last year. There’s no reason to change that mark this time round – in fact it’s moved further ahead of the competition thanks to a couple of upgrades that really matter (faster processor and better battery life) and a couple that aren’t so important but are still welcome (USB-C and the kick-stand). It’s well-priced, too, with your £200 giving you a year’s Fire for Kids access which in itself could be worth nearly £50. If you’ve got a primary-school-age child it’s a great investment – both for peace of mind and to give you some much-needed peace and quiet.
