Will this work with Amazon instant videos?

Its slower and Amazon does not support watching movies on it tried already.

No, amazon has a pretty tight lid set on what can and cannot access its video services, and the majority of android devices are not given access. There are of course ways around this, the easiest of which is view through the browser, (chrome usually works best for me). All other standard android video apps will work though, such as Netflix and the like. If you're looking for Amazon video compatibility on a tablet, then your best bet is to go with a kindle, (any version will work, and the KF2 can be found on Amazon for 99 dollars).

Honestly, I was disappointed with this tablet. It is super laggy, crashes a lot, and the way it works, is odd. As to if it works for that, I an unsure

I own the BD-E5900 and was not able to get the Amazon Instant Video. In checking the Samsung support website at: http://www.samsung.com/us/appstore/app/G00009411006-compatible, the BD-E5900 is not listed as a compatible device for Amazon Instant Video.

You would have to side load it like you do on a rooted phone. Do a Google search for Amazon instant video apk for android then download it. Go to the downloads folder and install. I'm sure it will work Samsung did a great job on leaving it like an open source platform. I can't say for sure cause I don't use amazon prime but I'm willing to bet it can be done I went thru 3 apks for hulu before I found one I liked but all did work. Hope I helped

Thanks, Carol. I have no idea what "prime instant video" is! Living waaaay out in the country does not allow for access to any type of streaming what-so-ever. Only purchased the unit because old DVD player died. Sorry I could not be of help. Mike

This player does support Amazon Prime Instant Video. It is included in the menu of services the player can utilize.

Natively, Amazon Prime Instant Videos require Adobe Flash Player installed on the tablet, which is not available on Android tablets like this Acer. Kindle Fire and iPads are supported. There are several free apps which state that they can stream Amazon Instant Videos; however I have not found one that works. I just unsuccessfully tried the free "Can I Stream It" app. If you are adventuresome the following link will supposedly step you through how to install and run Flash on an Android tablet - http://www.teleread.com/amazon/how-to-stream-amazon-instant-videos-on-a-nexus-7-or-other-android-tablet/. If running Amazon Instant Video on a tablet is important to you, I suggest that you get an Apple iPad instead.

As of pepper flash 11.3.31.323 it still does not work!!! When will Google incorporate the latest DRM (digital right management) now employed on recent Amazon Instant Videos?

I am not seeing the ability to stream Amazon instant video. Anyone know how to do this. My old Blu Ray player kept adding channels to installation.

Good news people. I just upgraded my BD-E5900 software version from 1063 to 1066 and we're now able to view Amazon Instant Videos.

Yes. That's pretty much the bulk of what we use ours for. There's the Amazon instant video app that works like a charm.

Not currently, Amazon has limited Prime Instant Video to their own devices (Fire TV, Kindle, etc), though some have tried hacking the app onto other devices with limited success. However, Amazon has announced the release of an app for Android not tied to their product line "soon."

I was surprised and dismayed that this fact wasn't highlighted in the product description. There is a workaround. If you have an XBox 360 AND you subscribe to XBox Live Gold, you can add Amazon Instant videos to your apps. Pricey, but it works great!
