Why we like it
Open-box offers are a great way to snag a coveted device for cheap. Barring an opened seal and a few light blemishes, you get a near-brand-new product at a sizable discount. Walmart is now offering an open box 2019 10.2-inch Apple iPad (Wi-Fi, 7th Generation) at $299.99 or 40% off the MSRP. And there’s no need to break the bank for purchasing any accessories — the tablet bundles a protective case, and tempered glass to keep scratches at bay, as well as a Bluetooth headset, a stylus pen, and a fast charger. The tablet arrives with Apple’s famed retina display for optimum display performance, 1080p video recording support, auto image stabilization, and body and face detection. Moreover, the 10 hours of battery power on a full charge are sufficient for streaming high-quality video as well as hammering out some work. While it’s certainly not the most powerful Apple tablet at the moment, it’ll meet all your daily needs at a super friendly price.

Best Samsung Galaxy Tablet deal
Why we like it
If you’re in possession of an eons-old Apple, Google, or Samsung smartphone, or even a due-for-an-update tablet, then you can exchange it for a brand-new Samsung Galaxy Tab A8(Opens in a new window)(opens in a new tab). Trading in a functioning device, whether in splendid condition or even with some cracks, guarantees you the A8 Tab at a massive 71% discount, as well as some trade-in credit that makes your next Samsung purchase cheaper. The tablet’s 10.5-inch display, fast-charging USB-C port, and 128GB of storage can meet most of your day-to-day needs. The deal offers two months of free YouTube Premium (new customers only) and access to over 160 channels via Samsung TV for free.
