that is NOT true - the fire tablets are the ONLY android devices that stream amazon video in HD
on all other android tablets it is SD only. ipad has HD but no other android make.
the HD8 also have netflix HD- there are very few other devices that have that, , pixel C, samsung s / s2 , Ndvidia K1 have it but most are SD only, no matter how good the tablet spec
so if you want
both netflix and amazon video in HD your only choices are the latest Fire HD models or the recent ipads, and fire is 5x cheaper.
update - except for the exploding Samsung?:
this from amazon
