In this week’s price cuts, we’re seeing high-quality tablets listed for around $200 – or even less. That makes upgrading to a new tablet more affordable, so you can stretch your back-to-school budget even further. Some tablets — like the Apple iPad (9th Generation) — are at their best price yet.

Why we like it
At $89.99, the Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet is the most budget-friendly tablet on this week’s roundup. While this isn’t the tablet’s lowest price ever, it’s a close second, clocking in at only $10 more. With 32GB of storage and a 10.1-inch screen, this is a solid standard pick for tablet users who want a fast-processing tablet to help with productivity and enjoy some entertainment. It’s also a good pick for slightly older kids: while it doesn’t have the kid-proofing that Amazon’s made-for-kids tablets have, you can still access Amazon Kids content on this tablet.
Best iPad deal

Why we like it
As of today, Aug 19, the Apple iPad (9th Generation) is at its lowest-ever price at Amazon, selling for just $199, down from its usual price of $329. With 64GB, an A13 bionic chip, and a 10.2-inch screen, this tablet prioritizes performance just as much as affordability. Thanks to the A13 chip, it supports immersive graphics – making it a good pick for gaming. Plus, it has an all-day battery life. With an ultra-wide front-facing camera, it’s also supportive of video calls.
Best large-screen tablet deal

Why we like it
If you’re shopping for something that has a larger screen, then the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ Tablet is worth considering. While today’s sale only takes the price down by 7%, we’re a fan of the tablet’s big, 11-inch screen. Whether you use your tablet for gaming, streaming movies, or productivity, the extra surface area gives you a more immersive experience. You can also operate multiple apps at once, making this tablet a helpful selection for multitaskers.
