Kindle Fires are at the cheapest $33 each. So if you need two…you’re out $66 dollars, plus simply putting a movie on for the kids is sometimes easier than fighting with a tablet, especially if you don’t have wifi in your car.
As someone that bought two cheap kindle fires for my two boys after they busted their Nexus 7 (2013) almost a week apart - the Kindle Fire is an insanely under powered device - my boys are constantly whining about how slow it is - it is constantly filling up the memory EVEN with a 64GB micro-sd card (no matter how big the SD card - you still more than 16GB of system storage) and the parental controls are pretty annoyingly stupid.
I bought one of these last time around. Have only used one display so far and it’s decent. I tried the games and they’re awful as expected.
Bought this because i’m sick of having to “fix the tablet” on long car rides with my 5 year old. Put a kids dvd from the library in it and i’m good to go for the length of it.
12vdc power only. Decent display and sound, does have headphone jack, can play 2 different dvds at same time if you had need.
Bought two pair of these, and waited to review until we had used them a couple of times in the older van. Independent DVD option is great. Movies do resume after losing power. Someone tried the games; they worked, but quickly tired of them.
I actually like these better than the built in DVD player in the Town and Country minivan we have gotten since then. The older kids handle things on their own and keep earphone plugged in so we can still listen to the radio station of our choice up front.
