Looking for a budget tablet that doesn’t feel like a budget tablet? Enter the Fire HD 8, Amazon’s mini tablet that’s now on sale for just $59.99, or 25% off its list price. 

Usually going for $79.99, the Fire HD 8 has a beautiful and colorful 8-inch HD display — which brings your favorite films and TV shows to life, while it makes reading e-books and comic books easier with crystal clear text. The tablet features up to 10 hours of battery life and 16GB of storage, but it’s upgradeable to a whopping 400GB with a microSD card. 

If you’re an Amazon Prime member, the Fire HD 8 is an even better value because you’ll have unlimited access to thousands of books, magazines, and films and TV shows in the palm of your hand — not to mention millions of songs from Amazon Music. The mini tablet also comes with Alexa built-in, so you can control it and find your favorite content with just the sound of your voice.

While the Apple iPad Pro is the latest and greatest tablet out there, it has a starting price of $799. Yes, the iPad Pro is very impressive, but sometimes you want something for watching videos and reading e-books at a much lower price point like the Fire HD 8, which is $739 cheaper. Just think about all the money you’ll save whenever you use the mini tablet.

But don’t just take our word for it. Amazon customer Vittoriano Macchia writes:

“I had the previous version of the HD8 and already liked it but unfortunately lost it. As a blessing in disguise, I got this all-new version (8th gen) and I’m very happy with it. It’s more or less the same thing but with some cool new features. Not sure if I know all the new features yet as I just got it a few days ago. Most notably, you can restart the tablet from the same power down menu. Also, you can use the SD card as an extension to your internal memory (card is only specific to the device) or as an external memory card to be used with other devices. Settings is easier to navigate through and easier to understand.”
