    Here’s a brilliant deal for the bargain-savvy bookworms out there; the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite, our favourite tried and tested ereader , has dropped in price by a worthwhile 20 per cent. In our review, our tester said it featured an elegant design, and improved front light, which is now “subtler and adjustable in terms of warmth as well as brightness”. Our tester added that, unlike other Kindles, it “uses a newer type of e-ink, which offers a faster page turn and smoother transitions”.

    Blink video doorbell: Was £59.99, now £29.99, Amazon.co.uk

    https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=0Ni52Y_0uTq5bfX00

    The best budget video doorbell in our review – the model was praised for offering “great functionality at a lower price point”. Our writer added that: “Setup is easy, as is installation – the app takes you through both.” It was also found to be “less obtrusive than some others”. A great time to secure your home for less.

    Amazon Echo Show 5, 3rd gen smart display: Was £89.99, now £54.99, Amazon.co.uk

    https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=368xFU_0uTq5bfX00

    There’s now nearly 40 per cent off the Amazon Echo Show 5, which our tech writer, Alex Lee, hailed in his review as the best Amazon Echo for the bedroom. “The sound is leaps and bounds better than the previous model, with thumpier bass and louder volume”, he said. It’s also “neat to use as a digital photo frame”, he added, explaining that the new chipset makes it faster than ever.

    Echo Dot, 5th generation: Was £54.99, £24.99, Amazon.co.uk

    https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=3HmHFY_0uTq5bfX00

    Choosing between the Echo smart speakers is tricky, but if cheap and cheerful is the name of the game for you, it has to be the Echo Dot. This unmissable deal has seen the gadget plummet even lower in price, meaning it can now be yours for less than £30. “The Amazon Echo Dot is the baby in the Amazon Echo range”, our tester explained in their review , “but don’t be deceived by its diminutive, spherical and slightly squat size – this speaker Alexifies every room in your home on a budget, while still delivering decent sound and good smarts”.

    Kindle scribe (64 GB): Was £409.99, now £274.99, Amazon.co.uk

    https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=217jYM_0uTq5bfX00

    The Kindle scribe comes with a stylus for creating notes in the margins of the page, which is pretty neat. “The scribe collects your notes together in one place”, our tester explained in their review , but “not all books can be written on, at least, not yet”. In terms of reading experience, they added that the big display means you can squeeze more words into a page, resulting in fewer page turns (or you can opt for bigger text). And there’s no time like the present to invest in the swanky new ereader because the price has been slashed by a generous £134.

    Amazon Fire TV stick 4k: Was £69.99 now £39.99, Amazon.co.uk

    Amazon’s most powerful streaming device yet is now its lowest price ever. The neat device slips neatly into your TV’s HDMI port and delivers access to all of your favourite streaming services in ultra-high-definition. If you’re an Amazon Prime member of course you can tuck into the best TV and film streaming has to offer. Even better, it can control compatible smart home devices, such as cameras and lights – all with the touch of a button.

    Fire max 11 tablet: Was  £249.99, now £139.99, Amazon.co.uk

    Reduced to almost half price this Prime Day, the Fire Max 11 offers “exceptional value”, according to our review , where it was dubbed the best full-size budget tablet on test. It was hailed by our writer for being powerful and boasting a “bright and colourful” display and “very strong” battery life. What’s more, it features “a slicker, slimmer and more premium design than other Fire tablets”, they praised.
