The lineup of Amazon Fire tablets features everything from super-cheap basic slates to solid everyday devices. The retailer-branded devices are also regularly reduced throughout the year and during major events, so there's always a good chance to bag a saving. We've gathered all the latest Amazon Fire Tab deals so you never miss out.

If you're looking to browse the web, catch up on some media streaming, play some simple games, keep the youngsters entertained with one of the bespoke Kids versions, or simply grab one of the best cheap tablets for an alternative to the Kindle ereader, a device in the Amazon Fire range is the ultimate affordable buy.

You can also look through the other tablet deals and iPad deals available today for some alternative options with more power or ones that aren't locked into the Amazon ecosystem. For those just after something for books, you'll want to head over to check out the latest Kindle deals.

There are currently three models in the Amazon Fire tablet range, with different screen sizes, display qualities and performance capabilities. The result is a selection of devices that cover all sorts of needs: whether you just need a basic tablet for web browsing and video streaming or a more capable device for some light work, gaming and more.

Since the discontinuation of the Fire 7, the entry-level option is now the Fire HD 8. It's still relatively cheap at $99.99 / £99.99, but is often discounted by up to 50% during major sales. The device offers an 8-inch display, 32GB of storage and a 30% performance upgrade over the previous model.

After that is the Fire HD 10, which boasts a 10.1-inch screen and a faster octa-core processor if you want to eke out more performance for $149.99 / £199.99.

And then last up is the latest Fire 11 Max with its 11-inch display, powerful performance, solid 14-hour battery life and decent storage options of 64GB or 128GB from $229.99 / £249.99.

Got tech-hungry children? The Amazon Fire Kids Edition tablet is a smart option for any aged around 3 - 7 years old.

It comes encased in an eye-catching and durable protective casing, but if that wasn't enough, it has a two-year unrestricted guarantee. So, if it gets broken or damaged accidentally then Amazon will replace it no questions asked. It's also equipped with plenty of software safeguards so you can ensure they only access appropriate content and set screen-time limits.

Three different options are available in a range of screen sizes: seven inches, eight inches and ten inches.

The Fire 7 Kids is the most basic model that's best suited to the very young with a recommended price of $129.99 / £114.99.

The Fire HD 8 Kids offers upgrades to audio, storage and battery life, though that does increase the cost to $149.99 / £149.99.

Lastly, the Fire HD 10 Kids is the most expensive of the lot at $199.99 / £209.99 but offers performance upgrades and the biggest display for those after the best browsing, streaming and gaming experience.

Ads or no ads? 

If you're browsing through these Amazon Fire tablet deals and noticing some cost differences, it's because Amazon offers two tiers of pricing based on whether or not you accept ads.

If you opt for the cheaper ad-supported model you'll see Amazon's special offers on the device's lock screen. It's important to note that this does not affect the way individual apps serve you advertisements, so you'll still see ads in these apps or when using a web browser if you grab the more expensive device.

However, if you do pick up the cheaper model and regret your decision, you can pay the difference to have those lock screen offers removed as well. That makes it better to trial with the ad-supported tablet and pay more further down the line if it's particularly annoying.

Most importantly, though, this doesn't apply to any of the Kids tablets - these do not show ads on the lock screen.
