In September 2018, Amazon refreshed their Fire tablet line with the release of eighth Generation Fire HD 8/Kids Edition and Fire HD 10. Some differences between the 6th and 7th Generation HD 8 models were the price, the gyroscope removal, the increase of maximum SD card expansion, and the better graphics chip. In 2017, the seventh Generation Fire HD 8 was released.

The 7 inch was simply called the Fire 7, while the 8' and 10.1' were called Fire HD 8 and Fire HD 10 respectively. In September 2015, Amazon released a new range of Fire tablets with 7, 8, and 10.1 inch sizes. The branding 'Kindle' was officially removed from the tablets' name. In addition, the Fire HD Kids Edition was released, which is the same device as the Fire HD 6 except it comes with a case and one-year subscription to Kindle Freetime apps. On October 2, 2014, the next revision of Fire HD models were released, part of the Fire Tablet's fourth generation, with 6-inch and 7-inch touchscreen sizes.
