Amazon's Fire tablets are on sale for cheap during Prime Big Deal Days, but shoppers looking for a more capable, less ad-heavy Android alternative should consider the new Google Pixel Tablet instead. The retail giant has it marked down to just $409 during the October Prime Day sale, which is 18% off its suggested retail price of $499 — its biggest discount to date.

Released in May 2023, the Pixel Tablet is Google's first attempt at a tablet since dropping the buggy Pixel Slate in 2018. It's a pretty average tablet spec-wise, packing a Google Tensor G2 chip, an 11-inch 2560 x 1600 display, up to 12 hours of battery life per charge. What really takes it up a notch is its included speaker dock, which transforms it into an incredibly useful smart display when in Hub Mode.

"I hardly ever ripped the tablet off the dock," writes Mashable tech and games reporter Alex Perry, who gave it a solid 4/5 rating. "The speaker part of the speaker dock delivers big enough audio with adequate bass and whatnot that I wound up using the device to listen to music and podcasts as much as I used it to watch YouTube videos and Mets games on YouTube TV."
