Fire tablets have come a long way since they first debuted as cheap, no-frills devices, but they've still kept their affordable prices.
Amazon’s best budget tablet, the 32GB Amazon Fire HD 10, is currently $74.99 (down from $139.99) after a 46% discount, hitting its lowest price ever according to price tracking tools. The 64GB version is $89.99 (originally $179.99) after a 50% discount. (Doubling the storage for $15 is well worth it, if you ask me.)
The Amazon Fire HD tablet has 3GB of RAM, a high-definition 1080p screen, a 13-hour battery life, and the ability to expand your storage by up to 1TB with a microSD card. Choosing to get it without lock screen ads will cost you an extra $15.
The 2023 Fire HD 10 is lighter, faster, and has a better camera than its predecessor, the 2021 Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet (and it's currently much cheaper). A new addition is the ability to use the Fire Max 11, a stylus pen that is sold separately, to tackle hands-on creative work.
Amazon Fire HD tablets aren't generally considered to be powerhouses, but they are a strong budget option—this specific model happens to be our sister site PCMag's pick for the best tablet under $150 (read their "excellent" review). The downside of all Amazon tablets is that you’re locked to the Amazon app store, though you can still download most major apps there, and you'll be mostly served up Amazon content. Of course, this can be a plus if you have invested in the Amazon ecosystem, as the Fire HD tablet can control all your other Alexa-enabled Amazon devices.
If you're willing to spend more, Amazon's flagship tablet, the Amazon Fire Max 11, is also at its lowest price ever: $139.99 (originally $229.99).
