Vocals do at least push through here, with Eilish’s lyrics coming across mostly clear. Using the mono loudspeaker is to be avoided if possible, with Billie Eilish’s Bury A Friend sounding hollow and thin, lacking substance in bass and sounding compressed. The Fire 7 is something of a mixed bag when it comes to audio, depending on if you’re using the speaker or wired headphones. This can lead to a bit of flatness to some images, such as the establishing shot of Bond entering the stunning Italian city of Matera, but while this can break immersion a tad, the Fire 7 tablet still has a much better display than the price would suggest. The display does lack somewhat when it comes to detail, obviously hampered by its standard definition display, with some grainy and blocky textures that aren’t easy to ignore. The fact that the Fire 7’s speciality is animation is also more important than you may think, with this tablet being particularly targeted at children. Pixar’s Turning Red on Disney Plus embraces this, with its whimsical and bright aesthetic glowing on the Fire’s display. The warm, vivid and punchy display of the Fire 7 lends itself particularly well to animated content. Skin tones occasionally look just a touch more flushed than they probably should, but the generally good Fire HD 8 actually looks slightly jaundiced by comparison. It’s clearly not as bright as the more expensive Fire HD 8, but what it lacks in outright punch it makes up for in highlight shading and subtlety, with the bright white snow and iced-over lake retaining surprising amounts of detail and avoiding a mass of overblown and featureless white.Īt the opposite end of the contrast spectrum, the Fire 7 lacks the black depth and shadow detail of its sibling, though it’s far from terrible in these regards, and for colour reproduction it’s actually better, delivering the candles of Bond’s hotel room with a much more authentic orange hue than the Fire HD 8 can muster. Its resolution is 1024 x 600, with a pixel density of 171ppi, but numbers on a spec sheet don’t always paint the whole picture.įiring up the latest Bond adventure, No Time To Die, the visuals aren’t perfect, but for a tablet as cheap as the Fire 7 there’s surprisingly little to complain about. Right off the bat, we have to acknowledge that the Fire 7 features a standard-definition display.
