Its the old 2012 Kindle refurbished (used), so a couple of generations ago.
They were decent enough but many were returned due to overheating and the resulting yellow burn-like appearances on the screen. As these are refurbed I'd wonder if they had this issue.

Received mine today, it is in good order and it's working well. Unfortunately I didn't pay by paypal so I think I'm going to have to let this one go. Of course had I'd known it was in fact the 2012 model I would of bought the non HD version new from Amazon.
I did email them days ago about not receiving it yet despite it saying next day delivery and that I was aware they were not sending the model of kindle they advertised. They just sent back a generic message saying allow 3-5 days for delivery and that was it.

Here's the email I've just set them - not happy at all!
I have just today received delivery of my order 69466139. I think you have sent the wrong tablet. The advertised tablet that I purchased was a quad core with a rear camera.
This tablet does not have a rear camera, and I do not think it is a quad core as this is the 2012 model and not the 2014 which does have the rear camera. I can purchase this 4 year old tablet (which is in this really poor condition) for £20 from computer exchange. So can you please arrange a credit of £15 via paypal and I keep the tablet, or please refund the entire value and collect this item for return to your depot. I'm so disappointed as this was going to be a gift for a disabled friend

Received my two yesterday. One is covered in scratches including the screen and the other the audio pops and crackles and only comes out of one speaker. Both get very hot when charging. Neither have a rear facing camera as advertised.
I have been unable to contact IWOOT other than the online message system which I have used but never had a reply.
i will start a claim with Paypal and see what happens and will not use again.

Had mine a few days from IWOOT. It comes with Cyangenmod. Had slight damage around the charger socket and didn't come with a UK plug, but uses the same as most android devices so wasn't bothered. Awesome for £35.

Yes, I did say people were getting theirs now from them. You didn't get the kindle they listed though, did you?
I haven't even received mine yet so IWOOT even lied about next day delivery, just a con to get you to spend more money.

They never sent a confirmation email of order even but looking in my account order history today it says it's been dispatched & even though it shows I used the next day delivery code it still said being sent by 'Standard delivery' underneath I notice. I guess it's just a waiting game now.
Update
I've notice that people who bought from the Zavvi are receiving theirs now & it looks like it's in fact the 2012 version they're getting. Very disappointing :disappointed: I think they did this purposely to deceive people so I won't just be complaining to them if this is the case

I flashed my Tate with Cyanmod to KitKat and it was simple to do. I'm not sure about KitKat'ing the 2014 though..
Donna80
19 Apr 16#25
Yeah, one of the two must be wrong., the photos or description. There were a lot of the faulty 2012s available as refurbs from Amazon and elsewhere so that's why I'm favouring that it'll be old stock.
Hopefully someone will be able to let us know soon :smiley:

Yea I understand that, but now is question what is more relevant, pictures or description...

The photo is for the 2012 2nd Gen model with the band across the back by the speakers and the microHDMI. I suspect they just copied the description from a later model with the same name.
Personally I'd go for a 5th gen model.

I have just had a dispatch email for my two ordered earlier today. Will update once they arrive.
Was this tablet £34 a few months ago brand new with Amazon?

no, the one discounted for Black Friday etc. was the latest generation, this one is considerably older.

Are you sure about that? Description is of 2014 model, quad core cpu, 2mp rear camera...
Donna80 to Nikist
19 Apr 16#18
The description is a little odd.. It looks to be the Kindle Fire HD 7 2012 Tate that you can Cyanogenmod to KitKat, so I'm guessing the spec is 1.2GHz not 1.5GHz.

Totally agree with you on the whole CM thing. Annoyed that you have to do all the work/risk to get CM on in the first place.
Unfortunately this isn't the case with the fire OS as the whole thing is the bloat that doesn't allow you access to the stock android underneath. Cold for me.

I ordered one even though I'm pretty sure it's a fake offer like said, no one has reported getting theirs from Zavvi yet.
I also ordered a Pebble charger which took my order over £40 with free Next Day delivery so time will tell but I won't keep my hopes up. They haven't even sent an email for registering or conformation of my order.

So is this running 4.4 with the amazon crap on top? Or is it running just 4.4 without any bloat?
Fair point! - If worried they do free next day delivery for orders over £40
