Our take Overall, apart from the questionable security issues, the Silk Browser is a catch. Should you download it? Reset the device by turning it off. Hold the button in for a few seconds and press "Shut Down", then restart the device. Tap a link on the page to access pages. Hold the link down for a few minutes and you'll get options to display it in another tab or in a few other options.
You can also have the device copy the link's URL address to the clipboard for future retrieval. Look on the screen for the back and forward buttons. They will be located at the bottom of the screen to the right of the Home button. Open the browser menu at the top of the device. It has three horizontal bars, like a ladder. There you'll find options to bookmark or share the page. You'll also find the "Find" option there. Note what the magnifying glass option does. It will take you directly to the address bar.
However, tapping this button is an additional step, if you know that you can tap the address bar itself to get to a site faster. The browser is supposed to take you to a search engine using that, but based on recent versions of the browser, it no longer does that. Find your bookmarks. Tap the three barred icon in the top left corner of the browser and tap Bookmarks to find all your bookmarks.

If you find something that you feel they haven't included, either tweet the Amazon Kindle team at AmazonKindle, contact them by email kindlefeedback amazon. Being this device runs on an Android operating system, you can watch whatever videos exist.
However, each video will open in its own video screen in the foreground of other pages. To conserve battery use though, be kind and keep the device charged when viewing videos.
