Amazon updated 2023’s Fire HD 10 tablet with 4GB of RAM
is a senior reporter who’s been covering and reviewing the latest gadgets and tech since 2006, but has loved all things electronic since he was a kid.
The Fire HD 8 that launched in 2024 was the last new addition to Amazon’s budget-minded tablet lineup, but the company has quietly updated the Fire HD 10 that debuted the year before. In 2023 it was offered with multiple storage configurations that each came with 3GB of RAM, but the 32GB version now ships with 4GB of RAM, and a small price bump from $139.99 to $154.99.
The Fire HD 10 with 64GB of storage still only comes with 3GB of RAM and the other specs for both tablets remain the same, including a 10.1-inch, 1,920 x 1,200 display, a 2GHz eight-core processor, a 13-hour battery, and expandable storage through a microSD card. The refreshed version is also only available for purchase with lock screen ads, but those can be removed after the fact by paying a one-time fee. If you’ve been eyeing this tablet but don’t want to pay a $15 premium for it, Amazon still sells the original 3GB/32GB model for $139.99, but stock may sell out.
Amazon hasn’t divulged the reason for the update, but the RAM crisis caused by a boom in data center construction for AI is affecting the availability of memory chips. Valve’s Steam Machine uses a single 16GB stick of RAM instead of the pair of 8GB sticks that was originally announced as an option. As AFTVnews points out, Amazon could also be having trouble sourcing the hardware these tablets originally used.

Information-Driven Design of Imaging Systems An encoder (optical system) maps objects to noiseless images, which noise corrupts into measurements. Our information estimator uses only these noisy measurements and a noise model to quantify how well measurements distinguish objects. Many imaging systems produce measurements that humans never see or cannot interpret directly....
