Hi folks, 
Just wondering as the title says, are both the current 7 and 8 inch version of the Amazon fire tablet 8th generation?
Also would you buy in the current virus pandemic, I am tempted to put in an order but when I get tablets would let them sit for a few weeks as a precaution, would need the protective cases as well from ebay would let them sit too for a few weeks before opening.
The price is right for me,  I know i said I wouldn't buy anything and here I am thinking of doing so.
Thanks for any advice.

4 days is long enough for a hard surface and sars .

Generation depends upon exact model build .

Ah thank you very much, I have ordered the 8 inch kindle fire, according to your link above that is the 8th generation 2018 model as it seems Amazon haven't released a 2019 model?
Just want to make sure I get it right when ordering the shockproof case on ebay as child let last one fall and broke the LCD, not worth it to fix it.
