AMAZON has just slashed the price of a Certified Refurbished Fire HD 10 tablet, and the savings are huge.
Usually retailing for £134.99, the 10-inch device is down to just £60.99 right now.

Certified Refurbished Amazon Fire HD 10 Tablet, £134.99 £60.99
Yes, it’s refurbished, but don’t let that put you off.
Certified Refurbished means the tablet has been professionally inspected, tested and cleaned by an Amazon-qualified supplier.
In other words, it works and looks like new, and most buyers say you’d never know it had a previous owner.
That’s the appeal, you’re essentially getting a flagship Amazon tablet, but for less than half price.
And if you’re still unsure about shopping refurbished, our Deputy eComm Editor, Matt Breen, has put together a refurbished tech guide.
He explains why it can be one of the smartest ways to save money without compromise.
When you look at what’s packed inside the Fire HD 10 tablet, it’s no wonder shoppers are snapping it up.
There’s a large 10.1-inch Full HD screen, perfect for streaming Netflix, Prime Video or a bit of window shopping.
The upgraded octa-core processor and 3GB of RAM mean it’s 25% faster than the previous model, so gaming, browsing and video calls should feel smooth and snappy.
I always like to recommend tech with a decent battery life, and the Fire HD 10 stretches up to 13 hours, which is more than enough for a day’s streaming or working on the go.
Storage starts at a modest 32GB, which is plenty for the average user, but can be boosted to 1TB with a microSD card, giving you space for all those games the kids download.
It’s thin and lightweight, so it won’t weigh down your bag, and the 5MP front camera means you can even video call with friends and family.
On that note, families will also appreciate the built-in parental controls through Amazon Kids+, which opens up thousands of child-friendly books, games and videos in one place.
The service usually costs £4.99 a month, but there’s a free 30-day Amazon Kids+ trial, so you can test it out before paying a penny.
The Fire HD 10 tablet is proving a hit, with a 4.5-star rating on Amazon, and over 1,000 sold in the past month alone.
One buyer raved: “Perfect, can’t tell it’s refurbished, looks like brand new, would highly recommend the tablet. A steal at the price, value for money.”
Another praised it as “Excellent… came as new, all packed up and price very good. Quality was amazing, great battery and screen too.”
A third summed it up neatly: “Pleasantly surprised, like new and excellent speed and picture quality.”
At this price, it’s a great gift buy to stash away early for anyone getting ahead on Christmas shopping.
But this isn’t the only Amazon bargain catching my attention.
Right now, a ‘powerful and fast’ MagSafe power bank, normally £140, is down to just £25 for Prime members.
Speaking of Prime members, it’s worth noting that Amazon’s October Prime event is just around the corner.
I’ve covered the autumn sale before, and expect even more discounts on Amazon device deals, like this Fire tablet.
