Cyber Monday FAQ

Should I wait until Cyber Monday to buy a tablet?

Although Cyber Monday is known for its sales on electronics, it’s not always a good idea to pass up on a deal in favor of waiting for another on Cyber Monday. Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals are similar, and Cyber Monday is meant to serve as a backup plan for those who couldn’t get what they wanted on Black Friday. It’s best to shop on Black Friday and jump on hot deals because there is no guarantee the tablet you’re looking to buy will also be on sale on Cyber Monday.

Will Amazon devices be on sale during Cyber Monday?

Amazon always drops the prices of its products during big sales events such as Prime Day and Black Friday. Amazon offers products across many categories, but the most significant savings are found in its electronics and smart devices. We recommend shopping for Fire TVs, streaming devices, and Echo devices such as smart speakers, earbuds and displays.

How to choose the best tablet?

The iPad is the most user-friendly tablet, boasts a fantastic display and works well when synced with other Apple devices. However, iPads are typically more expensive than other tablets. An Android or Microsoft tablet is more suitable if you want one that lets you download and run third-party programs. Besides the operating system, you should consider the screen size, processing power, RAM, built-in storage and battery life.
