The Amazon Fire 7 tablet runs on the Fire OS and the ad-supported configuration on sale for $40 has 16 GB of storage. You can pick your preference from a twilight blue, plum, sage, or black case. You can save $10 on other configurations, too. For example, a Fire 7 with 32 GB of storage without ads lists for $85 and you can buy it today for $75. In the real world, however, unless you’re downloading lots of music or videos, 16 GB of storage is sufficient for most uses and the only time you see ads is when you power up the tablet, so why not save the money. At $40, the Fire 7 tablet is a steal!

You and your family can use the Fire 7 tablet for reading Kindle e-books, watching streaming video, listening to music, and browsing the web with the Fire 7 OS’s Silk browser. You can also add many popular apps to the Fire 7 such as Netflix, Facebook, Hulu, Instagram, TikTok, Yahoo, CNN, and more, so you can check email, keep up with your social media accounts, and read the news, weather, and sports. There are 2 MP front and rear cameras and both support 720p HD video recording. This latest version of the Fire 7 has dual-band Wi-Fi connectivity for even better connections to your home Wi-Fi network. You can also talk with Amazon Alexa hands-free to get answers to questions, control compatible smart home devices such as room lights, and call or message your contacts.

The Fire 7 tablet weighs just 10.1 ounces and measures 7.6 inches high by 4.5 inches wide by 0.4 inches thick. You can run the Fire 7 for up to 7 hours between battery charges. Fully charging the tablet takes about 4 hours.

If you’ve been thinking about or actively shopping for a general purpose tablet for yourself or family members, Amazon’s Fire 7 is an excellent choice. During today’s Presidents Day sale, Amazon has discounted the Fire 7 tablet by $10 or 20%, so instead of the still reasonable $50 for this versatile digital companion, you can buy the Fire 7 tablet for just $40.
