They may be cheap, but the Fire tablets are perfectly respectable. They run a variation of the Android operating system, so you'll find all the main apps you could want. Still, there's an Amazon sheen to it all – you'll find plenty of pushes towards Prime TV or Kindle book downloads. Whether you're looking for a tablet for video calls to relatives, or something to keep the kids entertained during the pandemic, you won't got wrong for your dollar here.

Best Cyber Monday Amazon Kids Tablet Deals
Looking to buy a tablet for your kids? The deals have already begun, with Amazon cutting the prices on its ‘Kids Edition' Fire tablet range. There are three models to choose from:
Fire 7 Kids Edition Tablet – The most basic model, with a non-HD screen. It's the cheapest of the range, and this Black Friday its price has been slashed from $99.99 to $59.99. Ordinarily, we suggest picking up the standard Fire 7 tablet in the sale, as it usually gets as low as under $30 – however, this year, Amazon doesn't appear to have discounted it, keeping it at its standard $49.99. For an extra 10 bucks, the Kids version is a steal, especially considering its included case and two year warranty.
Fire HD 8 Kids Edition Tablet – Probably the best in-between model to go for. Though not as large as the 10-inch tablet, the screen is good quality and the price is much lower. This year Amazon has knocked the price down from its usual $139.99 to $79.99, which makes for an enticing saving.
Fire HD 10 Kids Edition Tablet – The largest of the Kids Fire tablet range, the 10-inch model is an excellent choice for those Disney Plus sessions and bigger screen gaming. Like the other models, it comes with the perks of the bumper case and the warranty, and if you're going to pick one up, now is the time, as Amazon has reduced the tablet from $199.99 to $129.99.

Best Cyber Monday Amazon Fire Tablet Deals
If you're after a non-kid's Amazon Fire tablet, you will need to be just a little more patient. Last year Amazon were a little slower to discount the range, waiting until the day before Thanksgiving to shave some dollars off the price. We're going to keep an eye on the store for you, and update the prices as soon as they change.
However, for whatever reason, Amazon has decided to cut the price of the largest tablet, the Fire HD 10, from $149.99 to $79.99, which is a great deal.
