Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra rumored release date, price, specs and more

 The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is considered to be the top model of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S23 series, and the rumors we’ve heard so far seem to confirm that.

The Galaxy S22 Ultra offers a huge upgrade over previous Galaxy S Ultra phones, combining the previous model’s camera array with the Galaxy Note series’ built-in stylus. The Galaxy S23 Ultra appears to be building on this in a few ways, most notably a main camera somehow crammed into the rumored 200-megapixels, and the traditional annual chipset refresh for better performance and power efficiency.

The new Samsung flagship phone is still a few months away, but below we’ve rounded up all the rumors about the Galaxy S23 Ultra so far.

Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra possible release date and price

Getting the basics out of the way first, we know the Galaxy S Ultra model will be back, as Samsung boss TM Roh said when he talks about the end of the Galaxy Note series. The only question now is when will it show up.

A smart guess would be January or February, when Samsung has been rolling out new Galaxy S phones every year for the past few years. Since we’ve already seen a new Samsung model certified in South Korea, Samsung seems to be seizing the moment.

As for the cost of this Ultra phone, we expect it to cost at least $1,200 again, just like the current S22 Ultra. We’re happy to see the price drop, though, especially since its closest competitor, the iPhone 14 Pro Max, starts at a slightly lower $1,100.

Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra Design and Display

If the changes to the Galaxy S23 Ultra are as small as rumored, then we might see a nearly identical design to the Galaxy S22 Ultra, with square corners, a curved display, and a camera embedded separately on the back. It also means another embedded S Pen for your graffiti needs, one of the S22 Ultra’s most unique features.

We’ve heard that the S23 Ultra may be slightly longer and wider than the S22 Ultra, albeit by a hundredth of a millimeter, so you’re unlikely to notice.

Additionally, leaker Ice Universe claims that the S23 Ultra will have a new display. While it’s hard to improve on the ultra-bright 6.8-inch QHD AMOLED panel and its fully variable LTPO 120Hz refresh rate, Samsung may have a brighter or more efficient display that could be replaced as a welcome update.

In addition, the rumored S23 regular version may also have thicker bezels. That might explain the slight increase in body size, although since the regular S23 and S23 Plus have flat displays instead of curved ones, maybe it won’t work with the Ultra.

Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra Camera

We should still see four cameras on the back of the S23 Ultra, save for one major change. There will allegedly be a 200MP main camera, even higher resolution than the already high-res 108MP main camera on the Galaxy S22 Ultra.

What’s not rumored to change is the telephoto camera, and according to one source, they’ll both have 10MP sensors like before, and likely have the same 3x and 10x optical magnifications.

On top of that, we’d like to once again see a 40MP selfie camera embedded in the top center of the display. While only one of the five cameras appears to have received a major upgrade, hopefully Samsung will show off some new software enhancements or camera modes at the launch event that will help the S23 series take its place on our best camera phones page a place.

Galaxy S23 Ultra performance and Snapdragon 8 Gen 2

Samsung typically uses Qualcomm chips to power its Galaxy S phones in the US, but uses its own Exynos chips elsewhere in the world. That means we’ll see the so-called Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 and Exynos 2300 at the heart of the Galaxy S23 Ultra.

Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra: battery and charging

To power the Galaxy S23 Ultra, Samsung should use the same 5,000 mAh battery we saw in the Galaxy S22 Ultra. While some extra capacity would be nice, a battery of this size is normal for a large Android phone, so we just hope Samsung can squeeze a little more battery life out of the S23 Ultra. While the S22 Ultra delivered decent results in our custom battery test, the iPhone 14 Pro Max lasted longer.

Rumors predict no change in charging speed, at least for the standard S23. This translates to at least 25W of charging power for the Galaxy S23 Ultra, and possibly up to 45W if you buy the right charger. The 45W charger was able to charge the S22 Ultra to 67% in half an hour, which is again good, but not great, compared to the 65W and higher charging standards used by competitors like OnePlus.

Make your iPhone 14 Pro’s always-on display even better with this simple trick

 Apple’s new Always-On Display for the iPhone 14 Pro lineup, the feature only launched on iPhones this year, but the always-on display technology has been around for years on Android devices.

For example, on the Samsung Galaxy S22, the AOD exists as a separate entity from your usual lock screen, showing you limited information, such as the date and time, while your phone is still asleep. It works almost like a productivity feature, letting you quickly scan your phone for important stuff without bogging you down.

On the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max, Apple redesigned what the always-on display should be, for better or worse, depending on who you ask.

In Apple‘s vision for iOS 16, the always-on display is essentially a dimmed version of the lock screen: the date and time light up, but you can still see notifications piled up at the bottom of the screen, and your wallpaper has a little bit of it.

For some, that always-on display feature might be perfect. It lets you see what’s going on without having to tap the screen or wake your phone.

But for me, it’s a big “but”. If you think of the always-on display more as a productivity feature, the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max don’t do that. It’s a little too distracting for me, with all the notifications piling up and waking up the screen, and it’s too bright, which is a problem if you’re sleeping with your iPhone on your nightstand.

Luckily, you can fix both by toggling a feature that not only completely blacks out most of your display, but also stops all notifications from distracting you — and it’s more than you might think more obvious.

How to make the iPhone‘s always-on display dimmer on iOS 16

To make your always-on display darker and less distracting, we’ll use Focus, which helps reduce distractions by muting most notifications on your iPhone, while allowing individual profiles and customization.

In the Settings app, go to Focus, then choose a profile: Do Not Disturb is the easiest option, but you can also choose Personal, Sleep, or Work. In any focus profile of your choice, tap Options, then toggle on Dim Lock Screen. Whenever this particular profile is enabled, your lock screen will dim, darker than usual.

To open your Focus profile, swipe down from the top right corner of the screen to close Control Center, then tap Do Not Disturb or hold your finger on Do Not Disturb to open your other Focus profiles.

With the correct Focus profile selected, your iPhone 14 Pro or Pro Max’s always-on display should now be completely black, showing only the date, time, and the Do Not Disturb icon.

6 Google Pixel tricks you need to try for your phone

 Have you recently bought a Google Pixel phone and wondered what it could do besides make calls, text and take pictures? We know that buying a new smartphone can be exciting and sometimes confusing. However, if you haven’t upgraded your phone in a while, or are switching from a different operating system, there are a lot of new features and settings to get used to. Check out 6 Google Pixel tricks below!

Add captions to videos with Live Captioning

Did you know your Pixel phone can automatically caption videos, podcasts, phone calls, and more? Press the volume buttons and tap the Live Caption icon that looks like a small text box to enable this feature. Live Caption runs in English on the Pixel 2 and later, so it should work on any Pixel phone launched in the past four years. According to Google, subtitles are stored and processed locally and never leave your device.

You can also adjust certain settings, such as hiding profanity and adding labels to sounds like laughter and applause. Open Settings and select Live Captions to customize these options. It’s also important to note that Live Caption consumes extra battery, so you may only want to turn it on when you need it.

Take better photos of stars

Google’s Pixel phones have features specifically designed to help you take photos of the night sky. It works on Pixel 3 and above, but if you’re on Pixel 4A 5G and above, you’ll need to adjust the zoom setting to at least 1x.

Google says the feature works best when taking pictures away from city lights for at least 45 to 90 minutes after sunset. You’ll also need a tripod or other stable surface rather than your hands for best results.

Just open the camera app, prop up the phone and make sure it’s steady, and tap Night Sight to get started. After a few seconds, you should see a message saying “Astrophotography on”. Press the capture button and put the phone aside until you finish taking the photo.

Translate screenshots in other languages

You can use Google‘s Lens feature to translate screenshots in Spanish, German, French, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Italian, and more. Open the Google Photos app and select the screenshot you want to translate. Then tap the lens icon that looks like a camera and select the translate icon. This works on Pixel 3 and above.

Switch to selfie camera without pressing any buttons

You can switch between the Pixel’s selfie camera and the main camera without having to click any buttons. Just open the Pixel’s camera app and turn the phone twice to switch between cameras. If you’re not sure what I mean by “twist”, Google has a helpful animation for you.

If you’re still having trouble, check your Pixel’s settings to make sure this feature is enabled. Open the Settings app, select System, then Flip Camera Selfie.

Open an app or take a screenshot by tapping the back of the phone

Add a handy shortcut to your Pixel phone with Google’s Quick Tap feature. This lets you open apps, take screenshots, play or pause media, or show notifications with just two taps on the back of your phone. It only works on newer Google phones like the Pixel 4A 5G and above.

To turn on Quick Click and customize its actions, open the Settings menu and select System. Then, choose gestures and quick taps. From here, turn on Quick Tap and choose what you want to do when you tap the back of your device.

Let the Google Assistant filter your calls

Google is expected to help with its call screen feature, which is available on all Pixel phones. When this feature is on, the Google Assistant can answer unknown calls and ask who the caller is and why. If it’s a spam call, it will hang up automatically, but you can see how the caller responded and decide whether to answer the caller or not.

Google doesn’t block calls from phone numbers saved in your contacts, and your Pixel doesn’t automatically block calls when you’re using a headset or connected to Bluetooth.

To set up automatic call screening, open the Phone app and tap the three dots in the upper right corner. Select Settings and select Spam & Calling Screen. Make sure the switch next to View caller and spam IDs is turned on, then press Call Screen.

From here, you can choose how Google blocks incoming calls. For example, you can set it to block spam calls, possibly fake numbers, first-time callers, and private or hidden callers. Just click on one of these categories and select the automatic screen. Deny the Robocalls option.

Amazon Fire HD 8 2022 vs Fire HD 8 2020: What’s the difference?

 Amazon’s line of Fire tablets remains a popular choice for those looking for an affordable entertainment device. In the home, the Fire HD 8 is a great middle ground, light and compact enough for travel, but big enough for a decent experience when watching on the go.

With an updated model coming in 2022, replacing the 2020 variant, how much has changed and which one should you choose? Let’s take a look below!

Price and Availability

Fire HD 8 (2022): From $99.99/£99/€114.99

Fire HD 8 (2020): From $89.99/£89/€89.99

Both versions of the Fire HD 8 tablet are available from Amazon, and preorders are open for the 2022 device, which hits store shelves on October 19.

Design and Build

Fire HD 8 (2022): 201.90 x 137.34 x 9.60 mm, 337 g

Fire HD 8 (2020): 202 x 137 x 9.7 mm, 355 g

There’s not much difference between the 2022 Fire HD 8 and its updated 2020 model. The two tablets look essentially the same, but the newer version is slightly slimmer—just a fraction of a millimeter—but nearly 20 grams lighter.

The overall design is the same, with a plastic rear and equal bezels on the outside of the display to allow a little room to grip the device. Color options for the new model are black, denim, and rose, while older models come in black, fuchsia, blue, or white.

There’s also a Fire HD 8 Plus model, which is slightly heavier and grayed out, with a few extras we’ll explain below.

All models offer stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos, making it a great entertainment device. Those keen on details will notice that the volume rocker and power button have swapped places between these models. The 2022 model also uses 35 percent post-consumer recycled plastic.

Exhibit

Fire HD 8 (2022): 8 inches, 1280 x 800 pixels, 189ppi

Fire HD 8 (2020): 8 inches, 1280 x 800 pixels, 189ppi

There’s no difference between displays: same size, same resolution, same overall experience.

It’s not the sharpest display in the Fire tablet lineup — that’s reserved for the Fire HD 10 — but it’s a perfect size for watching movies on the go, and has enough resolution for the task.

Hardware

Fire HD 8 (2022): 2.0GHz hexa-core, 2GB RAM, 32/64GB storage + microSD (1TB)

Fire HD 8 (2020): 2.0GHz quad-core, 2GB RAM, 32/64GB storage + microSD (1TB)

There are some differences in hardware. The biggest difference is that the 2022 model of the Fire HD 8 moves to a hexa-core processor instead of the previous generation’s quad-core.

Amazon says this results in a 30 percent performance boost, which means things happen a little faster.

That should mean the 2022 Fire HD 8 offers a better overall experience – while it also benefits from slightly longer battery life – 13 hours compared to 12 hours on the older model.

The Fire HD 8 Plus models (2020 and 2022 versions) bump up the RAM to 3GB, and also offer Qi wireless charging as an added bonus.

Software

four operating systems

Both tablets run on Fire OS, Amazon‘s version of Android. It does not support the Google Play Store, instead you must use Amazon’s AppStore to download apps and services you may need.

The Fire HD 8 2022 introduces Tap to Alexa in terms of accessibility, although we suspect an update to the older model may bring this feature in the future.

Five features expected in the new iPad Pro next month

 Apple is rumored to release new 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro models as soon as next month. The new iPad will be the first update to the ‌iPad Pro‌ lineup since April 2021, and will be an overall incremental upgrade that brings new features and capabilities to the highest-end iPad.

Apple is reportedly planning an event in October to announce new ‌iPad Pro‌ models, a new benchmark ‌iPad‌, and an update for the Mac. As October approaches, we’ve outlined five of the biggest features and changes coming to the upcoming iPad Pro.

Wireless charging

According to Bloomberg, the next-generation iPad Pro is expected to include some form of wireless charging. Apple has reportedly tested glass backs instead of aluminum casings or using a larger glass Apple logo for the upcoming iPad, which would allow for wireless charging, although Apple has faced some challenges implementing the technology. Apple is also considering adding MagSafe to the iPad, but how it will be implemented is still unknown.

New connector

The upcoming ‌iPad Pro‌ will feature two new four-pin connectors of some sort, as opposed to the three-pin Smart Connector found in the current ‌iPad Pro‌. The current three-pin ‌Smart Connector‌ in the ‌iPad Pro‌ is used to connect accessories like the Magic Keyboard. The inclusion of an updated four-pin connector expands the types of accessories supported by the iPad.

M2 chip

The current ‌iPad Pro‌ uses the M1 Apple silicon chip released in November 2020. The ‌M1‌ chip was Apple’s first Mac-specific custom processor, and it also appeared in the ‌iPad Pro‌ a few months later. For the upcoming “iPad Pro,” Apple is expected to use the updated M2 chip announced last June. According to Apple, the “M2” chip is 20% faster than the “M1” chip.

In the ‌iPad Pro‌, the ‌M2‌ chip will support features like Stage Manager that ships with iPadOS 16, which allows users to connect the ‌iPad‌ to an external display and have overlapping windows. According to Apple, iPadOS 16 will be released in October, likely alongside the updated iPad Pro.

The new Apple Pencil?

A video from April 2021 is said to show the third-generation Apple Pencil with a glossy finish and a redesigned tip. Despite the alleged leaks, Apple hasn’t announced a new “Apple Pencil” for nearly four years since the second-generation model debuted in 2018.

It’s been over a year since we’ve heard any major rumors about a new “Apple Pencil,” so it’s unclear what the situation is. If a new Apple Pencil does appear, we don’t expect major design changes, but the latency may improve due to internal hardware upgrades and software optimizations.

Reverse wireless charging?

According to Bloomberg, Apple has tested reverse wireless charging for the ‌iPad Pro‌, which will allow ‌iPad‌ owners to charge their AirPods or iPhone by placing it on the back of the ‌iPad‌. Apple is rumored to eventually plan to offer bilateral charging for accessories like AirPods to the ‌‌iPhone‌‌, but that has yet to happen.

Samsung’s new rugged phone features custom buttons and replaceable batteries

Samsung is adding another phone to its U.S. lineup. The Galaxy XCover6Pro is a rugged device intended primarily for industrial and corporate use, unlike Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S22 series or premium foldable Galaxy Z phones. It will launch in the US on October 22 after debuting in other markets, and it’s the South Korean company’s first 5G-compatible rugged phone.

According to Samsung, the Galaxy XCover6Pro can withstand drops of up to 1.5 meters. It has some specific features that most phones don’t have, including programmable buttons and a replaceable battery. Samsung also launched its rugged tablet in the US today, the $649 Galaxy Tab Active4 Pro.

Both devices were released in other markets earlier this year and retain many of the same features. They are all MIL-STD-810H compliant, which means they have been specifically tested by the US military to withstand certain altitude, humidity, immersion, salt spray, dust, vibration, and drop thresholds. Both the Galaxy XCover6Pro and Galaxy Tab Active4 Pro have replaceable batteries, but the tablet can also run without a battery, drawing power from the vehicle or kiosk if continuous use is required. Both phones and tablets support 5G.

Each device has programmable buttons that can be customized as shortcuts to launch specific apps or functions. While swappable batteries and custom buttons sound useful for any phone, the Galaxy XCover6 Pro and Galaxy Tab Active4 Pro are primarily designed for industrial use.

Inside, the Galaxy XCover6Pro has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G processor, 6GB of RAM, and 128GB of storage, expandable up to 1TB via a microSD card slot. It has a 6.6-inch screen and a dual-lens camera with 50-megapixel and 8-megapixel sensors. It’s also one of the few smartphones that still comes with a 3.5mm headphone jack. It’s rated IP68 for dust and water resistance, and it features scratch-resistant Gorilla Glass Victus Plus.

Because these devices are designed for enterprise and industrial use, they are available through Amazon Business and IT channel partners in addition to Samsung‘s website. The Galaxy XCover6 Pro will also land on some carriers, but Samsung hasn’t revealed which ones.

Motorola Razr 2022: Everything you need to know

 The Motorola Razr name has been around for years, but in 2019 the company revitalized its classic flip phone with a folding display. Now, the Razr 2022 will take on the likes of Samsung, Xiaomi and Huawei in the foldable phone market.

While it’s similar to the 2022 Razr 5G, it comes with a series of design tweaks and hardware upgrades — one of which you won’t find on any other folding phone. Here’s everything you need to know about the Razr 2022, so check it out!

When is the Motorola Razr 2022 release date?

Launching in China on August 15, other markets have yet to be confirmed.

For now, the Razr 2022 is exclusive to China, but is expected to launch in other markets in the coming months. Considering that other Razr models, including the original Motorola Razr, have been sold worldwide, it’s understandable to assume the same is true for the latest model.

A launch outside of China looks like it could happen soon. Evan Blass has released a series of Razr 2022 images with an English interface.

What are the Motorola Razr 2022 specs?

Updated square design without chin, 6.7-inch OLED 144Hz screen, 2.7-inch front screen, 50Mp main camera, Snapdragon 8+ 1st generation, up to 12GB RAM and 512GB storage.

Now that the phone is officially announced, we have all the specs and other details you need.

Starting with the screen, as rumored, the inside is a 6.7-inch P-OLED. That means the iconic chin design no longer fits on the larger monitor. It’s a 10-bit panel that supports HDR10+, DC dimming, and a 144Hz refresh rate; that’s higher than the predicted 120Hz, making it the highest refresh rate of any foldable device to date.

The gapless folding design minimizes creases, and the inner teardrop shape has a 3.3mm radius when the phone is closed.

The Razr’s hinge design means it can stay open in different positions, and the screen splits in two to perform different tasks. This also allows the camera to be used when the phone is placed on a flat surface in “tripod” mode.

Moving on to the outer screen, this still seems to be 2.7 inches and offers 9 widgets for different tasks, and of course for selfies.

For the aforementioned selfies, you’ll be able to use the 50Mp main camera with OIS. It has a 1/1.55-inch sensor with 1.0-micron pixels (2.0-micron, 4-in-1 binning). There’s also a 13Mp ultra-wide lens with a 121-degree field of view and autofocus, which means it can handle macro shots at a distance of 2.8cm.

Open the Razr 2022 and there’s a hole-punch 32Mp camera available. After moving to internal specs and mid-range chips, Motorola opted for the top-of-the-line Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 to give the phone either 8 or 12GB of RAM alone. Then there’s 128, 256, or 512GB of storage, with the largest pair having just 12GB of RAM.

Speaking of the battery, we’re happy to report that it’s increased to 3500mAh and charges faster, too, at 33W. In terms of connectivity, you get dual SIM, 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.2, GPS, NFC, and USB-C ports. Once again, there’s a side-mounted fingerprint scanner.

Finally, the software comes in the form of Android 12 with Motorola’s MyUI 4.0 skin. This supports Ready For 3.5, which means users can connect it to an external monitor for a desktop experience.

5 Easy Ways to Reset Apple ID Password

 It’s important for Apple users to know their Apple ID and password. Without these, you can’t access Apple services like iCloud and iMessage. Setting up a new Apple device also requires an Apple ID and password.

If you forget your Apple ID password or your account has been compromised, you may not be able to access your device or any Apple services. Resetting your Apple ID password might just be a trick to gain access again. Here are some easy ways to change your Apple ID password. Let’s have a look!

Reset your Apple ID password using your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch

The instructions for resetting your Apple ID password on iPhone also work on iPad and Apple Watch, as follows:

1. Go to settings.

2. Tap your name.

3. Click Password & Security.

4. Click Change Password.

Reset Apple ID password from a Mac device

You can also reset your Apple ID password from your MacBook or iMac by following these steps:

1. Click the Apple logo in the upper left corner of the screen, then click System Preferences.

2. Click on Apple ID.

3. Click Password & Security.

4. Click Change Password…

Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the password change.

Reset your Apple ID password on a new device

When setting up a new Apple device, you’ll be asked to sign in with your Apple ID. Don’t worry if you don’t remember your password. Here’s how to reset your password during setup.

1. During device setup, select Forgot Apple ID or password? as long as options are available.

2. Complete the setup process.

3. Once setup is complete, select an app or other option that requires you to log in with your Apple ID. On your iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch, you can select Messages. On your Mac computer, follow the instructions above.

Reset your Apple ID password without an Apple device

If you’ve given up your Apple devices after using them before and still need to sign in with your Apple ID, you have a few options. You can borrow a friend or family member’s Apple device, or use one of the devices in the Apple Store. However, you cannot follow the same instructions as above. Instead, here’s how to change your Apple ID password from a borrowed or in-store device.

1. Open the Apple Support app. You can also download the Apple Support app from the App Store.

2. Select Password and Security.

3. Select Reset Apple ID Password.

4. Select Start.

5. Select a different Apple ID.

6. Enter your Apple ID and follow the onscreen prompts.

7. After resetting your password, be sure to log out. You do not want others to access your profile.

Reset your Apple ID password from the web

If all else fails, Apple has a website you can visit to reset your Apple ID password. However, Apple warns that this process may take longer than the other methods on this list. But if that’s your only option, go to iforgot.apple.com, follow the instructions, and your password will be reset.

It’s important to remember that once you change your Apple ID password on one device, you must log back in on the other device with the new password. So instead of forgetting your new password in three days and repeating the cycle again, save yourself the headache now and log back into everything while your new password is fresh in your memory.

Like the new Fire 7, the HD 8 gets its first price hike in years.

The previous generation was priced at $89.99/£89.99 when it launched in 2020, but the 2022 model starts at $99.99/£99.99.

Amazon has kept the Fire HD 8 Plus, which, as in 2020, costs $20/£20. But since the base model is more expensive, the Plus is now $119.99/£119.99.

Likewise, the price of the Kids Edition has gone up, from $139.99/$139.99 to $149.99/£149.99. You can choose between Kids and Kids Pro. These are based on the new Fire HD 8 and offer a choice of different casings. As always, they have a two-year warranty and a one-year subscription to Amazon Kids+, which includes apps, games, videos, books, and more.

What’s new in Amazon Fire HD 8 (2022)?

Hexa-core processor (30% faster), 13 hours of battery life (plus 1 hour), stronger glass screen

It looks identical, has very similar colors (non-black options are now called blue and rose instead of twilight blue and plum), and has the same screen and camera. Upgrades include a six-core processor, stronger aluminosilicate glass, and an extra hour of battery life.

Amazon also says it’s thinner and lighter, but that’s an exaggeration. The previous model was 9.7mm thick, while the new model is 9.6mm. Amazon lists the 2020 Fire HD 8 at 335 grams, but the 2022 model is quoted at 337 grams, which means it’s actually heavier.

What really sets the new tablet apart, then, is the extra performance, which Amazon says is good for multitasking. You can use split screen to run two apps side by side, or watch Amazon Prime Video picture-in-picture while looking for recipes.

The 32GB and 64GB storage options remain the same, as do the 2Mp front and rear cameras. All models have a microSD slot for up to 1TB of additional storage.

If you want a better rear camera, the 2022 Fire HD 8 Plus now has the same 5Mp camera used by the existing Fire HD 10.

Otherwise, the main differences between the standard and Plus models are that the Plus has 3GB of RAM instead of 2GB, built-in wireless charging, and faster USB-C charging using the included 9W power supply. It is also exclusively available in grey. These are the exact same differences between the 2020 Standard and Plus models.

As mentioned, the two Kids Editions use the 32GB Fire HD 8 (2022) and are only available in different color case options: the tablet itself is black. For kids, that’s red, blue, or purple, while for Kids Pro, the designs offered are Arcade Hero, Rainbow Universe, and Hello Teal.

The Fire HD 8 Kids is aimed at younger kids ages 3 to 7, while the Kids Pro is better for kids ages 6 to 12.
