Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days is here, launching discounts for the brand’s line of budget-friendly tablets. The latest version of the Amazon Fire HD 8 with 32GB of storage and lockscreen ads was already much more affordable last month at 35% off, but it’s now back down to its lowest-ever price at 45% off for the shopping event. From its original price of $100, it’s on sale for only $55, and we recommend proceeding with your purchase as soon as you can as the savings of $45 is likely drawing a lot of attention.

Why you should buy the Amazon Fire HD 8 tablet

The Amazon Fire HD 8 is perfect as a casual tablet — it might not pack the same power as the premium models of the best tablets as it’s only equipped with a hexa-core processor and 3GB of RAM, but it will be more than enough for daily activities such as browsing social media, playing mobile games, and watching streaming shows from platforms like Amazon Prime Video. The device’s 8-inch HD touchscreen isn’t the sharpest display out there, but most people won’t mind it.

While the built-in storage of the Amazon Fire HD 8 is limited to 32GB, you have the option of inserting a microSD card for up to 1TB of extra space for your apps and files. The tablet can run for up to 13 hours on a single charge, which gives you a lot of time to maximize the device’s capabilities that are enabled by Amazon’s Alexa. You’ll be able to use voice commands for a wide variety of functions, including launching playlists, searching for information, setting reminders, and controlling your other smart home devices.

The Amazon Fire HD 8 with 32GB of storage and lockscreen ads, originally priced at $100, is on sale for its lowest-ever price of $55 from the tablet deals of Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days. That’s a 45% discount that you wouldn’t want to miss, especially since there’s no telling when you’ll get another chance at it once the shopping event ends. Hurry and complete your transaction immediately to make sure that you secure the $45 in savings when buying the Amazon Fire HD 8.

Amazon quietly upgrades its Fire HD 10 tablet with a whopping 1GB of RAM
Amazon really said, "Here's 1GB. You're welcome."
Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet

Amazon has quietly refreshed one of its most popular tablets, but not in the way many expected. Instead of launching a brand-new Fire tablet after its longest product drought in years, the company has introduced a slightly upgraded version of the existing Fire HD 10 with an extra gigabyte of RAM.

The update is modest on paper, yet it arrives at an interesting time. Amazon hasn't introduced a new Fire tablet since the Fire HD 8 refresh in 2024, while products like the Fire 7 and Fire Max 11 have yet to receive successors. Rather than expanding its lineup, Amazon appears to be extending the life of an aging device with a minor hardware tweak.

Companion mode stays. Primary mode arrives. WhatsApp on iPad just became a lot more useful.
Computer, Electronics, Pc

If you’ve ever used WhatsApp on your iPad, you already know its limitations. You can’t set it up without a primary device, can’t share live location, and can't use the broadcast lists feature. 

That’s finally changing. WhatsApp’s latest update gives iPad users a long-due promotion. Rather than serving as an extension of your iPhone, it will soon become your main device.
