If the rumors are true, Amazon Fire tablets are about to get a massive update. Amazon's tablets currently use the brand's in-house operating system, but insiders speaking to Reuters have said an overhaul is coming that will replace Amazon's operating system with an Android system. While nothing is confirmed yet, a slew of Fire tablets are now on sale at Amazon, making us wonder if upgraded versions are coming soon. We can't know for sure, but we can delight in the current discounts.

As of Aug. 21, a bunch of Amazon Fire tablets are now marked down over $50. The deals are for both adults and kids, as kid-friendly tablets have some of the biggest savings right now. Here are all of the best savings we've spotted so far.

Why we like it

While Amazon's tablets usually can't compete with the quick processing speeds of Apple's iPads, they're getting closer with the Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet. With an octa-core processor and 10.1-inch screen, it's great for streaming and gaming. Don't expect it to do as much as an iPad or Android tablet, as Amazon's app store is quite limited. However, if you're looking for a budget tablet, this will get the job done.

Already a great value at $139.99, the Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet is currently marked down to $89.99, saving $50 for 36% off.

In addition to streaming video and reading from the Kindle library, kids can browse the internet with built-in filters to keep content appropriate.

Normally $139.99, you can get this kid-friendly tablet for just $84.99, saving $55 for 39% — the best savings on any Fire tablet right now.
