Today’s Dealmaster is spearheaded by another round of deals on Amazon devices, with a variety of Fire TV media transmitters, Kindle e-readers, and Fire tablets, all at a discount.
The sale’s most notable discounts include some all-time low prices on Fire HD tablets. The 10.1-inch 1080p Fire HD 10, for example, has been cut to a set minimum of $ 100, which is a $ 50 discount for Amazon’s most powerful whiteboard. The company’s three new Fire HD 8 tablets have also hit new lows: the Fire HD 8 dock, which now includes 2GB of RAM, 32GB of storage, Wi-Fi 802.11ac and a faster processor, has dropped to $ 60 from its usual $ 90, while the updated Fire HD 8 Plus, which comes with a Fire HD 10-style USB-C port, 3GB of RAM and wireless charging support, has dropped to $ 80 from its usual $ 110. Each of the company’s sturdy Kids Edition tablets dropped to the lowest prices we’ve seen, while the Fire 7 dropped to $ 35 for those who want to pay as little as possible for a touchscreen. You’ll still have to deal with the limitations of Amazon’s Fire operating system with any of these devices, but if you just want a competent device for surfing the web and streaming videos, high-end Fire tablets in particular still have decent value. Elsewhere, our favorite e-book reader, the Kindle Paperwhite, has dropped to $ 100, while our favorite budget e-book reader, the standard Kindle, is available for $ 70. Neither of these deals is better than We’ve seen it, and both Kindles are sure to drop during Amazon’s Prime Day event. But if you need an e-reader today, these are discounts of $ 30 and $ 20, respectively, for devices worth considering. It’s a similar situation for the Fire TV Stick 4K, which is currently down to $ 35; This offer is $ 10 off the prices we saw on Prime Day and Black Friday, but it’s a solid $ 15 drop for a 4K HDR media transmitter we recommend.
Below are a few more deals on Amazon devices, but if you’re not interested in any of them, we also have deals on the latest Bose noise-canceling headphones, Samsung SSDs, a one-day Gold Box sale on Anker chargers, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and much more. You can take a look at the full summary below.
