For those who’ve been dying for the latest Fire tablet for streaming, reading, and gaming, Amazon has a sweet deal on the Fire Max 11 (if you don’t mind a refurbished model). As of July 18, you can grab a refurbished Amazon Fire Max 11 tablet for $129.99 — 35% off its standard list price of $199.99. According to price tracker camelcamelcamel, that’s the lowest price this tablet has dropped to in 2025.

This Fire Max 11 model has been tested and certified to look and function like new and even comes with the same warranty as a brand-new device. 

With a whole $70 off the price tag, you’re getting a vibrant 11-inch display, a powerful octa-core processor, and 14 hours of battery life, making it a seriously capable all-around performer for the price.

The 2000x1200 resolution screen is built for watching shows, reading ebooks, and casual gaming — and it’s certified for low blue light, so your eyes won’t take a hit after hours of use. The aluminium build with reinforced glass also aims to add to its premium feel and durability. Amazon even claims it’s three times tougher than the 10.9-inch iPad in drop tests.

You’ll also get 64GB of storage (expandable up to 1TB via microSD), WiFi 6 support for speedy connections, and access to Alexa features like smart home control and Show Mode. 

You can easily download streaming services like Netflix to watch Stranger Things on the go, and be ready to watch the upcoming Wednesday Season 2 in style. Add on the optional keyboard and stylus (sold separately), and the Fire Max 11 starts to feel like a productivity tool, too.

If you’d also like an extra Kindle for reading, you can still score a like-new Kindle Paperwhite for $53 off at Amazon as well.
