Nexus 7 (2013)
Price: $179 (regularly: $229)
Buy: Office Depot

Google's 7-inch slate has had the attention of the Android faithful since its arrival a few months back. Unskinned Android and solid performance earned the tablet a 91 Engadget Global Score. And the device just got an update to 4.4.2, bringing all KitKat's features.



ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity (TF701T)
Price: $400 (regularly: $450)
Buy: Amazon

We first caught a glimpse of the Transformer Pad Infinity back in June, and our editors were immediately smitten with the tablet's crisp 299 PPI display for viewing Android apps. Once more, a current-gen slate has nabbed a $50 discount -- in case the recipient craves the freshest tech.




Barnes & Noble Nook HD+
Price: $149 (regularly: $269)
Buy: Office Depot

Shopping for someone special who isn't concerned with the latest and greatest but is after a reading device with a bit more to offer? The Nook HD+ is worth a look, especially at this price. In addition to sorting that personal library, apps from Google Play are available on-screen as well.



Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0
Price: $130 (regularly: $250)
Buy: MacMall

For those after a smaller slate, the Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 's price tag is now checking in at a 90-day low. Reliable performance and solid battery life are in play for all of those Android-powered exploits. However, you'll want to keep in mind that Samsung has discontinued this particular model.
