One of our favorite tablet options for those looking to get the most bang for their buck is the Fire Tablet 7, and today, you can pick it up at Amazon for less than a steak dinner. Right now, it’s on sale for just $35, which is $15 off the regular price of $50. Keep reading to find out why this is one of the tablet deals you don’t want to miss.

While the Amazon Fire 7 tablet wouldn’t exactly make our list of the best tablets, it’s one of Amazon’s best-selling devices for a reason. In fact, in our Amazon Fire 7 tablet review, we said that it provides “unbeatable value.” It’s equipped with a speedy 1.3 GHz quad-core processor, 1GB of RAM, and 16GB of space with an expandable storage capacity of up to 512 GB with a microSD card. That’s more than enough to handle navigation through the interface, play videos, check your e-mail, and even do some light gaming. There’s a front-facing 720p camera that you can use for video calls, along with a 2MP rear camera for quick snapshots. It’s also equipped with surprisingly fantastic battery life considering the size, with up to 7 hours of usage on a single charge.

It’s the perfect device to give your kids. Not only do you have full access to a range of apps for children along with a free subscription to Amazon Kids, but it’s also very durable so your child can focus on having fun. The medium 7-inch IPS display is a perfect size for little ones. You also have access to all the most popular streaming and content platforms. These include both Amazon’s services like Amazon Music, Prime Video, Kindle, and Audible, along with external services like Spotify, Netflix, and Hulu. There’s also hands-free navigation through Amazon Alexa, along with excellent compatibility with Alexa-powered smart home devices.

The Amazon Fire 7’s surprising functionality and rock-bottom price make it a no-brainer if you’re looking for a no-frills cheap tablet. Right now, you can get it on sale for just $35, which is 30% off the regular price of $50. That’s less than a tenth of the price of other tablets. If you’re interested, hit that Buy Now button as soon as possible — this deal could expire at any time!

The iPad is finally getting the Affinity app creatives have been asking for
Affinity brings photo editing, vector design, page layout, and sketching together in one free iPad app.
Affinity UI on iPad

Affinity’s new all-in-one creative app is finally coming to the iPad, nearly a year after Canva launched the redesigned desktop version for Mac and Windows. Creatives have been asking for the iPad release ever since, especially because files created in the new Affinity app cannot be opened in the older V2 iPad apps.

Affinity already has Photo, Designer, and Publisher apps on iPad, but the new release combines those tools into the same unified app that Canva launched on desktop last year.

Apple’s “Pro and Tell” October 28 event: Everything we expect from touchscreen MacBooks to a new iMac
Prepare for a touchscreen MacBook that costs around $3,000.
Computer, Electronics, Laptop

Touchscreen laptops have been around for years. You can get them in all sizes and shapes. Just not from Apple. For years, the Cupertino giant has treated the idea of a touchscreen MacBook the way I treat a meeting that could have been an email: with open contempt. However, Wednesday looks like the day the company could finally change its mind. 

The latest Apple invite puts the “Pro and Tell” showcase in Los Angeles at 10 a.m. PT (1 p.m. ET) on October 28, 2026. Instead of a regular live-streamed keynote, it is an invitation-only, hands-on event for a handful of press and creators (similar to what the company did for the MacBook Neo earlier this year).

Apple will only give you the fastest iPad mini chip if you pay $999, or more
The full A20 Pro experience on Apple’s new iPad mini is reserved for buyers spending at least $999.
Apple iPad mini with 6-core CPU

Apple has just launched its latest iPad mini with a notable set of upgrades, including an OLED screen, improved speakers, and a more resilient build. It also gets a new chip, and the whole package costs $200 more than its predecessor. But if you look closely at Apple’s online store, you’ll realize that $699 isn’t enough to get you the most powerful version of the A20 Pro chip inside this tablet. In fact, even if you pay $800 for the 256GB model, you still won’t get the beefiest variant. Only when you jump to the 512GB trim, which costs an absurd $999, do you get the most powerful flavor of the A20 Pro.

The $999 model gets more than extra storage
