If you just need a basic tablet for simple functions such as browsing the internet, doing online shopping, and watching streaming shows, the incredibly affordable Amazon Fire HD 8 may be enough. It’s not going to wow you with its performance, as it’s only equipped with 2GB of RAM with limited storage of 32GB, but it’s got an 8-inch touchscreen with HD resolution and built-in support for Amazon’s Alexa, so if that’s all you need, go for the Amazon Fire HD 8.

Amazon Fire HD 10 — $75, was $140

The Amazon Fire HD 10 offers a large 10.1-inch touchscreen with Full HD resolution, for bright colors and sharp details when watching streaming shows and playing games, and faster performance compared to the previous version of the tablet with its 3GB of RAM. Its 32GB of storage space may be increased by up to 1TB using its microSD card slot, and its durable design and strengthened display makes sure that it won’t easily get damaged by daily wear and tear.

Amazon Fire HD 10 Plus (refurbished) — from $106, was $120
