Our top picks
The Fire Max 11 is our favorite budget tablet, not to mention Amazon’s best iPad competitor, thanks to its crisp 11-inch display (the largest Fire tablet yet) and its 8MP camera that supports 1080p video , 14-hour battery life, upgraded eight-core processor – Core processor and WiFi 6 compatibility. As a Mashable reviewer noted, it’s “blazingly fast, making it a good alternative to expensive streaming and gaming tablets.” Full price is $229.99, but as of August 15, the price is down to $169.99, a 26% savings and about $30 off the all-time low.
When the new iPad Air and iPad Pro launched a few months ago, the price of the classic 10th-generation iPad was permanently reduced to $349, making it even more affordable. Even better, starting August 15th, it’s back on sale with a 14% discount, bringing the price down to $299. This isn’t the first time the classic iPad has dropped in price, but after jumping back to $329, it’s nice to see the price come back down. It may not be the most advanced iPad in the Apple ecosystem, but it’s still pretty solid, with an A14 Bionic chip, a 10.9-inch Liquid Retina display, and interesting color options.
If you’re tired of reorganizing your storage to make room for new stuff on your computer, the Samsung 990 EVO SSD offers 1TB of “premium storage that won’t break your budget.” Our friends at PCMag (owned by Mashable publisher Ziff Davis) tested it and found it to be a “great value for money, mainstream M.2 internal SSD with great performance and a top-notch warranty, software, and Security” is what you’d expect from Samsung. ” It even won their coveted Editors’ Choice award. Normally priced at $149.99, as of August 15, it’s on sale for just $69.99 — more than half off and the lowest price on record.
