Today's Dealmaster is headlined by a new round of deals on Amazon's Fire HD tablets. While the deals don't match the all-time lowest prices we saw around Black Friday and Cyber Monday, they are substantially below the typical street prices we see on Amazon for those in the market for a cheap slate today. The offers include the Fire HD 8 for $65, the Fire HD 10 for $95, and the Kids Edition version of those slates for $90 and $135, respectively.
As always, the Fire HD lineup should only be considered by consumers looking for a media consumption device for as cheap as possible. These tablets are neither as well-built nor as speedy as Apple's entry-level iPad, and they're still saddled with Amazon's Fire OS skin, which excludes Google apps and the Play Store altogether (by default, at least). That said, for basic Web browsing, e-book reading, and Netflix viewing, they're more than competent, which is still a victory given how little they'll set you back.
Besides that, our deals roundup includes discounts on Apple's AirPods Pro, the excellent UE Wonderboom 2 portable speaker, a lap desk we like, tons of video games, and much more. You can check out our full roundup below.
