I have the same model Kindle Fire. It was my first Fire, received as a gift back in November 2012. The product page for it is no longer even on Amazon, or at least the link to it in my order is dead (there is a zero-dollar order for it in my account because there was something wrong with my original one and Amazon replaced it; the replacement was flawless). The battery in mine still holds a good charge. It was a solid, high-quality tablet, if somewhat underpowered from the outset. The display is beautiful and the sound quality is surprisingly good. The Amazon case for it is extremely nice as well, more luxurious and of much better quality than Amazon cases for post-HDX era Fires. The case is prominently labeled "Kindle"! One nice feature of this model is that with an HDMI cable you can connect it to a TV to watch previously downloaded content from Prime Video. This can come in handy when you're traveling, and I believe all later models lack this feature. On a newer Fire I recently bought a dictionary from the developer MobiSystems from the Amazon App Store, and it showed up and installed on this tablet. I've had to install other apps manually for some reason. So it's still usable but more as an offline tablet, for reading, reference, etc. Also, I just confirmed that it still works with Prime Video. To my knowledge, the only Fire tablets with better displays have been the HDX models and of course the current Fire HD 10, which finally has full HD.
