The Amazon Fire 8 tablet is cheaper than it was on Prime Day

Normally we see the best Amazon Fire tablet deals at Amazon, but for a change, the cheapest price for an Amazon Fire HD 8 tablet is at Best Buy. It usually costs $100, but Best Buy is currently selling it for $50. Crucially, in the past, Amazon has only ever dropped the price to $55, and that was way back during Black Friday 2022, so this is the best price we’ve seen in a long time. If you’re looking for a super cheap tablet, you’ll love this one. Here’s what else we have to say about one of the best tablet deals before you commit to a purchase.

Why you should buy the Amazon Fire HD 8
You won’t see the Amazon Fire HD 8 in our look at the best tablets because that’s how budget-friendly it is. Think of it as a tablet to hand to the kids to keep them entertained during long trips or for those times when you just need a little more screen space than using your phone.

Why you should buy the Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet
This version of the Amazon Fire HD 10 is a Lockscreen Mode model. This means that sponsored content and special offers will be displayed on both the Home Screen and Lockscreen.
