Yes, I am patient, and have my eye on BF. I have picked up a couple of your recommended no-contract phones in the past (), but they are bigger than I've been looking for (closer to 5" than 4"), and I'm using them for "semi-stationary" music and occasional audible book players. They are awesome for that, and I thank you again!

But really looking for a super small, 4"-ish model, or even 3.5". Doesn't have to be top-of-the-line, but a lot of the smaller ones I've found have either been pretty expensive (some of the Sony Xperia) or reviews say they are really slow/buggy (really old Android/old processors). Will keep my fingers crossed for something like I want for BF, but also may buy now (see @ApK's recommendation of ZTE Citrine) if I find something reasonable.
Check Walmart no-contract phones.

That looks really good, a bit bigger than my prized Galaxy Player 3.6, but still pretty small, and hopefully the (non)activation screens aren't too annoying. Does he just leave it on all the time, or ???
Putting my non-activated Verizon phone in airplane mode stopped the annoying activation screens.

Seriously tempted to upgrade from my 7-inch Fire tablet to an 8-inch. The offer is good for a week (11:59 p.m. PT, 09/16/17), so I have some time to talk myself into it. Or out of it. Or into it. Or ...

Are these "all new" Fire HD8 tabs the same ones that were sold on Prime day, or did they change since then?
I can't keep up.

The same ones. Fire 7 and Fire HD 8 are 7th gen tablets released in Jun 2017.

Amazon really blew it with their naming

They should've named them Fire 7-1, Fire 7-2, Fire 7-3, etc. Simple, yet very effective.

Wasn't there a second HD 10 where they updated the casing and stuff? Or do they consider that the same generation?

With a title like that if I did get it I would have deleted it without reading it.

So, is the upgrade worth it? Are the screens/resolution better than the original Fire 7?
Thanks.
