Those Amazon 7" tablets are on sale for a few more days I'd assume. $29 for a screen that works with Google Play Store and runs reliably 24/7 -- not a bad deal at all.
(Not to sound like an advertisement for them, but I see a lot of people on here going back to the whole Raspberry Pi monitor type installs and on the other end I see PCs powering desktop monitors and TVs etc for something this does at 1/16th the power consumption.)
10" version is $99 which, if you ask me, is still way too steep seeing how you can get 10" Win10 2GB RAM/32GB SSD tablets for $60 pretty frequently. Personally, I use 10" screens for wall mounts way more as the video feeds, when full screen, pop a lot more. 7" is still insanely useful for desks, side tables, and smaller rooms.
Here's one of the 7" Fire units in my basement as an example:
