<human>: Provide a brief overview of the text.

In May, I ordered 3 tablets from an Amazon seller. They've worked fine until this week, when suddenly they *all* fucked up at once. Two stopped connecting to the wifi, and the other one's battery exploded (inside the metallic packaging, so no one was hurt or anything). I don't know a whole lot about electronics, but I know the company stated that they push firmware updates to devices, and I assumed that one of those updates is what made the tablets fucky. I don't know.

The seller's Amazon page says they offer a year-long limited warranty, and since the damage done was obviously not my fault, I expected them to be covered. The company's response to my email was that they can't refund or return after 90 days, and offered me a discount price on 3 new tablets (3 for the price of one).

**So, the question is, should I take the discount and buy 3 new tablets and try to sell the old ones, or should I try to talk them into repairing or replacing the original 3?**

Relevant details: I live check to check and have already hit my expendable budget buying Christmas gifts, so I wouldn't be able to buy the new tablets until January. We don't have a TV, and so the tablets are pretty much our only source of entertainment and mental reprieve. From what I've read online, the only way to fix the wifi problem is to root the tablets, which is a pain in the ass and I just really don't want to do that. The tablets they offered are a slightly different version, but enough to make it annoying to change. I would have trouble selling the old ones, and may not be able to at all.
<bot>: 3 tablets went belly-up simultaneously, seller won't honor warranty, can't decide whether to take (admittedly good) discount and buy new ones, or nag them to replace originals. What do?*
