The bestselling

Amazon Fire 7 Tablet

is an affordable gift that would make anyone on your list smile, which is why you shouldn’t feel too bad about shopping for one last-minute. And right now, you can take $10 off the already low price. Listed at $50, you can get the Fire 7 Tablet for just $40 with free shipping. The 32GB model also drops from $70 to $60. But you had better act fast because shipping is already delayed for three of the colors in the 16GB model. You still have time to grab one in black.

The new Fire 7 Tablet has a 1.3GHz quad-core processor that won’t slow you down, 16GB or 32GB of internal storage, and 1GB of RAM. It’s twice as durable as the latest iPad Mini, making it a great choice for younger users, and it provides seven hours of battery life for on-the-go entertainment. Watch movies, read books, browse websites, and more on the gorgeous 7-inch display, or video chat with friends and family with the 2MP front and rear-facing cameras. You’ll find more than 570,000 apps, including your favorite streaming channels, 475,000 Audible books, and millions of songs at your disposal.

Better yet, ask Alexa to queue up your favorite movie, play your favorite album, check the weather, change the temperature on your smart thermostat, call your spouse, message your kids, and more. And with Amazon Kids (FreeTime), you’re in control of available content and screen time, even when you’re not around. You may want to compare the Fire 7 Tablet to the best tablets of 2020 before you make your choice, or check out our other tablet deals. But if you know the Fire 7 Tablet is the right gift for your loved one, you should snag one while you still can. It appears these tablets are flying off the shelves. And with good reason, too: Most Amazon customers agree you get a lot of value for the price. This tablet received an average rating of 4.4/5 stars from more than 125,000 reviewers.

Once listed at $50, the 16GB Amazon Fire 7 Tablet now goes for just $40 shipped. Or grab the 32GB model for $60 down from $70. Note that all four colors of the 32GB are still available for delivery in time for Christmas, but you can only get the 16GB model in black. If you order today, they’ll never know you waited until the last second.

Should you buy a tablet on Black Friday or wait for Cyber Monday?

11-inch version of Huawei MatePad Pro tablet

A lot of folks wait all year for Black Friday so they can pick up a tablet, but many also worry about whether waiting for Cyber Monday is a better idea. Well, we'll look into that, as well as some great Black Friday deals you can pick up right now.
Should you buy a tablet on Black Friday?
Yes, absolutely, especially since Black Friday is one of the best times to pick up electronics like tablets. If you're worried about Cyber Monday, the truth is that while offers tend to be mirrored, there's no absolute guarantee that you'll find the same item on sale for the same price or at all. That means you're better off picking up Black Friday tablet deals when you see them rather than waiting. That said, even if you do find a better deal on Cyber Monday, you should still be within the return window for Black Friday, so you can return that tablet for a full refund and buy the one with the better offer.

Fire HD 10 tablet -- $75, was $150

The Fire HD 10 tablet is Amazon's attempt to hit the budget tablet market running, and they do a surprisingly good job of it. You get a 10.1-inch FHD display with relatively good brightness and 3GB of RAM, which is more than enough for most day-to-day usage. With this deal, you also get 32GB of storage, although you can bump it up to the 64GB version if you feel you need it. It has the same experience as the Fire TVs since it carries the same OS, so if you're already a fan of that, you're in luck! One thing we need to point out, though, is that this is a lock screen-ad-supported version, which is why it's so cheap. Luckily, you can get it without the lock screen ads for an extra $15, and we encourage you to do that if you can.
