The last decade has seen a complete transformation of the tablet market. Not long ago the tablet was a rather marginal presence in the portable computing landscape, entirely overshadowed by the smartphone and the laptop. That all changed when Apple launched the first iPad in 2010, an event that instantly changed the way people thought about tablets. With it's vibrant touchscreen and sleek silvery body, the iPad recast the tablet as a luxurious lifestyle accessory. Apple's competitors were quick to follow its lead and a new generation of the tablet market.

The modern tablet market is dominated by three brands, Apple Samsung, and Amazon who have consistently produced market-leading tablets ever since. Over the last decade Samsung has manufactured some of the most iconic mobile devices on the market, from the Galaxy Tab to the Galaxy Note series, which collectively transformed how we viewe'd tablets by reimagining them as powerful smartphones.

The Amazon Fire 7 tablet is an excellent example of everything Amazon does well. As you'd expect from an Amazon Fire device this sophisticated tablet features an array of cutting-edge technologies including Alexa Voice Control and FreeTime Parental Controls, which allow you to control what your kids can access online via your device. It also boasts a gorgeous 7" Full HD display with a rapid quad-core processor that delivers smooth streaming and fast app loading.
