Tablets simplify your tech while traveling since they can double as a laptop, e-reader, and gaming device. Luckily, with Black Friday officially underway, the deals are already here. Plus, more than just iPads are up for grabs: Amazon Fire and Samsung Galaxy tablets are on sale too.

Newer, faster and significantly upgraded from the previous version, the Fire HD 10 is a tablet worth checking out — especially at $95 off its already affordable price. Amazon products usually see a substantial drop around Black Friday, but this tablet is at its lowest-ever price.

For Black Friday, however, Amazon has discounted the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9 Plus to $199, which saves you 26% off this device. The 11" screen is great for all ages, and it's an excellent choice for a gift this holiday season.

Holiday deals have kicked off at Best Buy, Target, and of course, Amazon. One of the better sales out of Amazon is on the retailer's Fire Tablets. Amazon's answer to Apple's iPad is significantly cheaper, even at full price. During this early Black Friday, find Amazon Fire Tablets for their lowest prices ever, up to 50% off.

The best iPad deal right now remains the iPad 10th gen for $259, which is 26% off. Note that this is in the blue color. You can also get the Amazon Fire Max 11 for just $139, which is $90 off. Seeing early savings on Apple’s newest release is a rare treat, making it a must-see deal for iPad fans.
