Tablets are versatile gadgets that can be used for entertainment, work or study.
However, many of the better-known models are also quite expensive – the Apple iPad, for example, starts at just under 370.00 euros.
An affordable alternative is the Fire Tablet from Amazon*, which is also currently on sale. The discount is up to 50 percent.
Tablets are incredibly practical: They are light, fit in every pocket and can now easily keep up with most laptops. That’s why they’re perfect for streaming on long train journeys. But the versatile flat calculators (that’s what tablets are really called!) are also excellent for working or learning.
So it’s no wonder that, according to a representative population survey by the German digital association Bitkom, six out of ten Germans already use a tablet – both privately and professionally. Our fellow citizens probably had to dig deep into their pockets for this, because the survey also showed that the average price for purchasing a tablet is around 380.00 euros.

Fire Tablet – the cheap tablet from Amazon
This average price is surprisingly close to the price of the Apple iPad, probably the most popular tablet, which currently costs around 370.00 euros. Comparable models such as the Samsung Galaxy Tab or the Microsoft Surface are available for 200.00 and 400.00 euros respectively.
If that’s too much money, we recommend the Fire Tablet from Amazon*. The cheapest version of the more than affordable tablet is available from EUR 54.99*.

You can use it to watch films or series, listen to music and audio books, download games and apps or read eBooks.

So if it doesn’t necessarily have to be the branded tablet from Apple, Samsung or Microsoft, the Fire Tablet is not a bad choice.
