Some great tablet deals are already live ahead of Prime Day 2024.
The best early Prime Day tablet deals
Prime Day 2024 is coming — Amazon confirms sale will go ahead July 16th and 17th. Now that we’ve all marked it on our calendars, we’re officially starting to look for early deals. We know that most of the discounts won’t arrive until Prime Day begins, but that doesn’t mean some hidden gems won’t show up on TVs, laptops, and more.
We’re tracking the best tablet deals so you don’t have to. With Apple launching new iPads earlier this year, we’ll continue to focus on markdowns on the latest technology. We also expect prices to come down significantly for older generations of still-excellent technology.
Prime Day 2024 is coming: Here are the best in-person deals to shop early
While the savings don’t seem huge at the moment, that’s because the latest iPad Air and iPad Pro are still very new — and we’re still seeing them at their lowest prices ever.
NOTE: All new deals are marked with ✨, while deals with 🔥 have dropped to all-time low prices. Amazon’s exclusive invitation-only offers are marked 📨.
Best iPad Deals
why we like it
The latest iPad Air is equipped with Apple’s powerful M2 chip. We were impressed with the M2’s processing speed when we saw it in the MacBook Air, and now it makes the iPad Air just as powerful. The latest iPad Air was just released in May, but we’re seeing prices drop ahead of Prime Day. Currently, it’s down to $1,024, which is $75 off, which may not seem like a lot, but it’s still the lowest price yet. With 1TB of storage and laptop-like processing speeds, this is a certified deal.

Best Android Tablet Deals
why we like it
The Samsung Galaxy S9 is the best Android option in our tablet rankings, and ahead of Prime Day, it’s down to an all-time low of $649.99, a 19% discount that saves you $150. It’s comparable to the iPad, making it the perfect solution for anyone who wants the benefits of a premium tablet but doesn’t want to jump into the iOS ecosystem.
It features an 11-inch display, vibrant graphics, and an included S Pen for drawing and note-taking. It is powered by the powerful processing speed of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip. Plus, its IP68 rating makes it one of the few water- and dust-proof tablets, making it easy to get started on your summer adventures. Take it, Apple.

Best deals on Amazon tablets
why we like it
Among the tablets we tested, the Amazon Fire Max 11 performed best, second only to the iPad. It’s very affordable, starting at $229.99, and It comes bundled with a keyboard case and stylus to get the most out of your workstation. This is best for people who don’t need a lot of processing speed or storage – it only has 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. However, if you’re on a budget, the sacrifice may be worth it. The entire bundle normally starts at $354.97, but that’s down to $224.99, which is less than the starting price of the Fire Max 11 itself. Save $129.98, or 36% off, by purchasing this deal before Prime Day.
