If a basic tablet that won't break the bank is what you're after, it's hard to beat the Amazon Fire HD 8 Plus — especially since it's on sale ahead of Prime Day.
As of June 20, the Fire HD 8 Plus with 32GB of storage is down to just $54.99 at Amazon for Prime members. That's 54% off its list price of $119.99 and a new record-low price for the tablet. Although it is possible, it's hard to imagine the device dropping any further in price for Prime Day. Not a Prime member? You can sign up for free for 30 days (if you're new or returning), which will also unlock access to most of the deals on Prime Day proper. And nothing is stopping you from taking advantage of the Prime perks for free, then cancelling before your trial is up.

If money's tight, the older HD 8 Plus will still get the job done. It lasts about 13 hours per charge, packs 3GB of RAM, features an aluminosilicate glass display, has a hexa-core processor that's 30% faster than the previous model, and offers USB-C charging support. Ultimately, it's a "great introductory tablet for anyone interested in entertainment functions like streaming, social media, and reading on the go," Mashable's reviewer writes.
