From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

With a 10in screen, this is the biggest display of any Amazon tablet and offers the highest resolution, with the plus version of the device earning a spot in our round-up of the best tablets. Our reviewer praised the tablet’s impressive features, noting that the “battery life is excellent” and that it is “a highly enjoyable tablet to use.” They also commended that there was more than half a million Android apps to choose from and the fact that it can be charged wirelessly with a compatible charger – a rarity of tablets. With the £70 saving on the Fire HD 10 tablet right now, this is a deal worth snapping up.

Also earning a spot in our round-up of the best tablets, our reviewer said the Fire 7 is a great value-for-money option. “It’s hard to find a tablet at a lower price than this, at least if you want a decent brand name attached,” they said. The 7in display makes it lightweight and portable while they noted that the screen works especially well for books and audio books. “Storage is less than on many rivals but enough for most users. But the price is the real standout here,” they added. And now it’s even cheaper thanks to Amazon’s Black Friday sale

Amazon’s Fire HD 8 plus also impressed our reviewer who praised it as “solid and powerful.” They added that compared to the Fire 7, it “has much better specifications, including a higher-resolution display which makes it the perfect video playback tablet for the commute, for instance.” The upgraded processor makes it especially fast and effective while just like the Fire HD 10, you can charge it wirelessly. You can enjoy 36 per cent off the device right now.
