Amazon’s Own Tablet Costs 7X Less Than an iPad, Record Low Price for Prime Day

Prime Day is when Amazon drops incredible deals on all of its products and brands including Ring and Blink items, Kindles, Fire TV, and tablets. It’s the year’s perfect time to enjoy the best prices, even better than Black Friday. Amazon uses this event to slash margins, sometimes even selling at a loss, all to boost volume and reward its Prime members with deals that are hard to resist.

This particular offer is exclusive to Prime members, so you’ll need an active subscription to take advantage of it: the latest Amazon Fire HD 8 tablet is available for just $54, down from its regular price of $99. This 45% discount marks an all-time low for this popular tablet. At this price, you’re getting a powerful device for a fraction of what you’d pay for other tablets.

8-Inch Display

The Fire HD 8 tablet comes with an 8-inch HD display that’s great for streaming your favorite television shows, gaming or web surfing. The display is bright and clear and provides a comfortable viewing experience. Its slim and lightweight size makes it convenient to take anywhere, and the rugged build ensures it can withstand the bumps and scrapes of everyday life.

The device comes with 3GB of RAM (50% better than the previous 2022 model) for perfect multitasking. With 32GB of internal storage, you have enough space for apps and downloads, and if that’s insufficient, you can supplement up to 1TB of storage with a microSD card (sold separately). The tablet is designed for a full day of use, with 13 hours of battery life from a complete charge so you can read, stream, and play without having to hunt for an outlet.

The Fire HD 8 is also packed with clever features to help you get things done more easily: Three built-in tools allow you to create professional-looking emails, instantly summarize web content and create custom wallpapers. You can stream or download your most-loved shows, movies, and games—like bestsellers like Minecraft and Roblox. The tablet supports a wide range of apps from the Amazon Appstore, including Facebook, Hulu, Instagram, and TikTok.

The 5MP rear camera lets you capture photos or engage in video calls and Alexa integration offers the hands-free capability of calling friends and family or having meetings with apps like Zoom and Microsoft Teams. Alexa can also help you stay organized (ask for news and weather, add to your shopping list, set reminders, or control your smart home devices), all by voice.

At just $54 for Prime Day, this is a deal that’s hard to beat.
