65″ Fire TV Omni Series Hands-Free TV on sale for $599.99 and other Smart TV Deals for Cyber Monday

Posted by Elias Saba on

Amazon held out on discounting one variant of its Fire TV smart TVs during the Black Friday weekend sale and, as I guessed, it has now gone on sale as a Cyber Monday exclusive deal. The model in question is the 65-inch Fire TV Omni Series Smart TV which is now on sale for $599.99. At $230 off its regular price of $829.99, this is by far the largest discount on any of the Amazon-built Fire TV Smart TVs. This TV features 4K Dolby Vision and hands-free mics, like a Fire TV Cube, so that you can control it by voice without needing to use the remote or an external Echo. You can read up on all of its specs in this article from when it was first revealed just a couple of months ago. For comparison, the similar 55″ Toshiba M550 Series Fire TV Smart TV which also has hands-free mics and just went on sale for Cyber Monday for the first time ever is priced at $649.99 despite being a smaller TV. Read on for a full list of all Fire TV Smart TVs that are currently on sale. Read more ›

Black Friday / Cyber Monday deals on Fire TVs will end on December 5th

Posted by Elias Saba on — 3 Comments

Amazon kicked off its Black Friday deals on Fire TV devices early last week and will be keeping those deals alive through Cyber Monday and will not come to an end until at least the end of this week. This includes the Fire TV Stick Lite for $17.99, the Fire TV Stick for $19.99, the Fire TV Stick 4K for $24.99, the Fire TV Stick 4K Max for $34.99, the Fire TV Cube for $79.99, ad the Fire TV Recast for $129.99, which are all at their lowest prices ever. Many deals on Fire TV Smart TVs are also still live, but those will likely end after today and are not scheduled to last until December 5th, like the sale on stand-along Fire TV devices will. So, if you were too busy over the holiday weekend to buy anything or you find later on that you need another device, you still have until the end of the week to get in on these great prices.

Amazon Smart Plug just dropped to $14.99 for Black Friday — Lowest Price Ever

Posted by Elias Saba on

Most Amazon Black Friday deals have been live for several days but a few new ones are just barely trickling out this morning. Amazon released new Kids Echo bundles this morning and a few new Fire TV Smart TVs also dropped further in pricea few hours ago. Another new deal for today is the Amazon Smart Plug for $14.99, which is 40% off its regular price of $24.99. This sale matches the lowest price Amazon’s own smart plug has ever been. While this isn’t the least expensive smart plug on the market or the one with the most features, what you get by choosing it over others is simplification. That’s because it comes pre-linked to your account and, if you’ve previously saved your Wi-Fi password with Amazon while setting up a new device, Alexa should be able to configure the plug in seconds by powering it on and saying “Alexa, find my device.” There’s also the advantage of needing to only use the Alexa app for everything related to this plug, instead of yet another 3rd-party smart home app.

This Insignia 55-inch 4K HDR10 TV for $299.99 is hands-down the best Fire TV Smart TV deal for Black Friday

Posted by Elias Saba on — 3 Comments

The best Fire TV Smart TV deal that is currently live for Black Friday is, without a doubt, the Insignia 55in 4K F30 Seris TV for $299.99 from either Amazon (Update: Sold out at Amazon) or from Best Buy. This TV started off at a list price of $549.99 when it was introduced earlier this year. The current sale has dropped it a full $70 lower than it has ever been in the past. To put this deal into further context, this 55-inch Fire TV Smart TV is currently priced at or lower than all 50-inch Fire TV Smart TVs, most of which are currently at all-time low prices. This is a no-frills basic 4K TV, but if you value screen size over high-end features like Dolby Vision or Quantum dot QLEDs, (which you need to pay $100 more to get in a 55″ Fire TV Smart TV) this is the TV deal for you. This 4K TV supports HDR10 and has 3 HDMI ports (1 is eARC), a 1.5GHz quad-core CPU, 2GB of RAM, 8GB of storage, 10/100 Ethernet, 802.11ac Wi-Fi, a USB port, optical audio, composite video, a headphone jack, and a built-in OTA tuner.

These are all the Amazon Device Black Friday Deals that are cheaper than they have ever been in the past

Posted by Elias Saba on — 2 Comments

Everyone knows that the best time to buy Amazon devices is during major sales like Prime Day and Black Friday, especially when the device is at its lowest price ever. However, the best deals on Amazon devices are always when a product drops further than it has ever been in the past. For example, while the Fire TV Stick 4K’s current sale price of $24.99 is a good deal because it has never been lower, it has been bouncing down to that same price for the last 2 years. The Fire TV Stick 3 on sale for $19.99, on the other hand, has never been that low before, so it’s a more significant discount. This is why I diligently keep track of all Amazon device sale prices and always post about deals in the context of previous sales so that you know when’s the best time to buy. Here’s a full list that I’ve put together of all the significant Black Friday deals on Amazon devices that are currently lower than they have ever been in the past, which includes Fire TVs, Fire TV Smart TVs, Echos, Fire Tablets, Blink Cameras, Eero Routers, and much more.

Posted by Elias Saba on — 2 Comments

The Sideclick Remote Attachment is on sale for $14.99 at Amazon and at Best Buy as part of their early Black Friday deals. This price, which is 50% off its regular price of $29.99, matches the lowest price it has ever been in the past. The Sideclick adds a column of universal remote buttons to the side of your Fire TV remote. Each button can be programmed individually to replicate the action of any button on a remote you own. The labels on the buttons (power, plus, minus, etc…) are just suggestions since any button can be programmed to do anything. The Sideclick comes with everything you need to attach it to any Fire TV, Fire TV Stick, and Fire TV Cube remote. It’s also compatible with all Fire TV Smart TV remotes, except the remotes that have the home button above the circular select button. Learn all about the Sideclick Remote Attachment in my review. Amazon and Best Buy also have the Sideclick for Nvidia Shield TV, Chromecast, Roku, and Apple TV on sale for $14.99 or less.

Posted by Elias Saba on

Amazon announced its new fitness tracker, the Halo View, at its big hardware event earlier this year but it’s now available to pre-order.

The Halo View comes in two band sizes, a small/medium, recommended for wrists that are between 5.12-7.68″ around, and a medium/large for wrists that are 6.3-8.86″ around, but the device is the same size regardless.

Posted by Elias Saba on

Amazon put its Eero 6 mesh routers on sale at the start of this week but most of them have just dropped even further today to new all-time low prices.

At the upper end is the Eero Pro 6 3-Pack for $449 and there is a bundle for every price point in between to fit your needs.

Echo Dot 3rd Gen w/ Free Color Smart Bulb is $19.99 or $41.99 with a Ring Video Doorbell

Posted by Elias Saba on

Amazon’s Black Friday deals on its devices continue to trickle out. The 3rd-Gen Echo Dot w/ Free Color Smart Bulb has gone on sale for $19.99. This bundle was $1 cheaper last year, which is the lowest it has ever been, but it included a white bulb instead of a color bulb. Buying it with or without the bulb is the same price, so the bulb truly is free. Also available starting today is the 3rd-gen Echo Dot with a Ring Video Doorbell for $41.99. At $3 less than this bundle was during Prime day this year, this is the new lowest price this bundle has ever been. Even though the 4th-gen Echo Dot, which has not gone on sale yet, does exist, the 3rd-gen model holds its own since many prefer it for its smaller size. Amazon rightfully kept making it, despite the new model being released, because it certainly has its advantages and sounds great for its small size.

Game Controller for Amazon Luna, Fire TVs, PCs, Macs, Android, & iOS is on sale for $49.99 for Black Friday — Lowest Price Ever

Posted by Elias Saba on — 2 Comments

Amazon has just put the Luna Controller on sale for $49.99, which matches its limited introductory price and is the lowest price it has ever been. Even if you never try the Luna Cloud Gaming service, this is still hands-down the best gamepad for Fire TV devices due to its Fire TV integration and flexibility. It connects directly to Luna over Wi-Fi, bypassing the device you’re gaming on, for the lowest possible latency. When not used for Luna, this controller can also connect wirelessly via Bluetooth or wired via its USB-C port. When connected over USB, it doesn’t need batteries installed. On Fire TVs, the hand-off from Bluetooth for controlling the Fire TV to Wi-Fi for Luna gaming is seamless and automatic. Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and USB-C connections are supported on Fire TVs, Windows PCs, Macs, and Android phones/tablets for either local or cloud gaming through Luna. For iPhones and iPads, however, it only works with Luna via its direct Wi-Fi connection, so keep that in mind. If you do any kind of Fire TV gaming, this is the best controller to have, and, as a perk, it works well on other devices as well. Amazon also sells a Phone Clip for $12.99 to connect your phone directly to the controller. Lastly, there are numerous bundles for this controller and Fire TVs/Tablets, but none of them save you anything over buying the devices and controller separately.

Latest Echo Show 5 drops to new all-time low of $44.99 in Early Black Friday sale

Posted by Elias Saba on

Amazon is continuing to trickle out Early Black Friday deals on its devices. All Fire TV models are still on sale at all-time low prices and this morning the Echo Show 5 went on sale for $44.99 to match. This is the latest 2nd-gen model that was just released earlier this year. At 47% off its regular price of $84.99, this deal is the new lowest price the latest Echo Show 5 has ever been, beating out its previous record low by $10. For just $5 more, you can get a Blink Mini camera with the Echo Show 5 for $49.99, making this an even better bargain. Also going on sale this morning is the 4th-gen Echo with a Free Smart Bulb for $59.99. While that too is the lowest it has ever been, it’s a price that we’ve seen in the past but I don’t expect it or the Echo Show 5 to drop any further when actual Black Friday rolls around.

Get $200 free when signing up for the Amazon Prime Rewards Visa Card

Posted by Elias Saba on — 11 Comments

Amazon is now offering select Prime members a $200 signup bonus for the Amazon Prime Rewards Visa. This bonus is normally $100, and occasionally increases to $150, but this is the first time I’ve seen it climb to $200. If you shop at Amazon or Whole Foods with any kind of regularity, this card is a must because it gives you 5% off of all purchases at both places. Additionally, Amazon is constantly running promotions that give even more cashback on select products, such as the 10% cashback promo that is currently offered for purchases of the Fire TV Stick Lite, Fire TV Stick 4K, and Fire TV Cube, among other things, when using this card. Non-Prime members can only receive a $100 sign up bonus, so the additional $100 bonus amount that you get for being a Prime member will nearly pay for your membership if you signing up for Prime first and then sign up for the Prime version of the rewards card. The increased $200 signup bonus started today and will be available through Nov 30. This card has no annual fee.

Get a Kasa Smart Plug for $3.49 and/or Kasa Smart Bulb for $0.99 exclusively through Alexa voice shopping

Posted by Elias Saba on — 28 Comments

Amazon is currently offering a couple of great deals if purchased through Alexa voice shopping. You can get the Kasa Smart Plug Mini with Energy Monitoring for $3.49 by saying “Alexa, order Kasa Smart Plug Mini.” This normally sells for $22.99 and the lowest price that it has ever been in the past is $12.99. You can also get the Kasa Dimmable Color Changing Smart Bulb for $0.99 by saying “Alexa, order Kasa Smart Bulb.” This too normally sells for $22.99 and has only been down to $19 in the past. If you prefer to make your purchase the old fashion way, instead of saying “Alexa, order…” you can say “Alexa, add [ITEM] to my shopping cart.” Then you’ll be able to view the items in your cart on Amazon.com or in the Amazon app and the Alexa exclusive discount will be applied automatically to the order because you used Alexa to add the items. You may order either or both items at the special Alexa discounted price.

Update:

The Kasa bulb appears to have sold out but has been replaced by a Sengled Color Smart Blub for $0.99 that normally sells for $14.99. Say “Alexa, order Sengled Smart Bulb” to buy it or “Alexa, add Sengled Smart Bulb to my cart” to checkout on Amazon.com. If you purchased the Kasa bulb you can also purchase the Sengled bulb.
