Prime Big Deal Days may be "officially" over, but is it really over if there are still a slew of great deals still up for grabs? Amazon's selection of discounted tablets is admittedly more scarce than it was during the actual October Prime Day dates, but that doesn't mean you're fully out of luck. A bunch of different tablets are still on sale, including a few Amazon Fire tablets.

Elsewhere, we've also spotted record lows on two Apple iPads, including the new 13-inch, M4-powered iPad Pro. These deals aren't technically included in Amazon's formal Prime Big Deal Days programming, but the size of their discounts makes them worth mentioning. Amazon's live discounts across the Samsung Galaxy Tab line-up are also exciting, and there's a record-low price on the Google Pixel tablet.

Below, we've gone into more detail on the early October Prime Day tablet deals that are actually worth it. Note: Deals marked with a 🔥 have dropped to an all-time low price.

Why we like it

If screen size is your main priority, then the Fire Max 11 is the Amazon tablet you'll want to pick up. It features an 11-inch, 1200p display while maintaining a thin and compact chassis that's great for traveling with. Even after Prime Big Deal Days, the Fire Max 11 is still sitting at an $80 discount, just $149.99. Secure yours before the price hikes back up, which could be any day now.

Best Apple iPad deal

Why we like it

Sure, the name implies it's a tiny tablet, but the Apple iPad mini comes with massive features like 256GB of storage, for starters. There's nothing mini about that. Supporting WiFi 6 is another impressive feature. The size is pretty much the only "mini" element, measuring 8.3 inches, which can make it ideal if you're on-the-go for work or school. Following Amazon's October Prime Day sale, the Apple iPad Mini is down to a record low of $499.99 in the 256GB version, which is 23% off the usual price of $649.
