This $50 tablet is a solid find for kids and teens

TL;DR: Get a Lenovo 10E Chromebook Tablet on sale for $49.99 (reg. $199). 

Tablets are great for kids who are old enough to use them, but do you remember how you treated your toys when you were a kid? How long until that expensive iPad gets used as a pickleball paddle? No, of course, the tablet had gum in the charging port when you gave it to them. 

When you’re giving kids technology like tablets, it’s nice to start off with something cheap enough to replace but powerful enough to enjoy. This Lenovo 10E Chromebook Tablet fits the bill. It’s great for streaming, browsing, or doing schoolwork, and it’s also on sale for $49.99. 

A tablet cheaper than dinner 

This tablet is tough enough to handle life in the hands of a kid. The 10-inch HD touchscreen is reinforced with Dragontrail Pro glass, which means it’s less likely to crack if (or when) it takes a tumble. It runs on a MediaTek processor with 4GB of RAM, so kids can watch videos, do homework, and play educational games without the thing freezing up every two seconds. Plus, with ChromeOS, they’ll have access to tons of learning tools and apps.

Battery life is another big win here. This tablet can last up to 16.5 hours on a single charge, so you don’t have to worry about it dying in the middle of a school day or a long car ride. It’s also super lightweight at just over a pound. That means it’s easy for little hands to carry around, and it won’t be too much extra weight when your kids inevitably ask you to carry it. And if they ever need to type up an assignment, there’s an optional keyboard attachment (though it’s not included).

So why is it so cheap? This is technically a refurbished tablet, but you’d never know from looking at it. The grade “A” rating means it’s in near-mint condition. There are virtually no signs of wear, and it even comes with a charger and cable.
