Now, if you want to buy from Amazon due to an Amazon Prime membership, you’ll have to hurry because (at the time of this writing) there are only 19 in stock. Walmart’s not saying how many they have left, but you can guess this items is selling quickly either way.

However, there is a case for making this your go to tablet for browsing, or even making this a tablet for watching movies. How so? First, it’s 10.4 inch screen has a nice 2K 2000 x 1200 resolution, which is not too shabby for a tablet under $100.
