Show Mode Dock for older Fire HD 8 and HD 10 tablets is on sale at all-time low price

Posted by Elias Saba on July 14, 2020 — 1 Comment

If you have a previous generation Fire HD 8 or Fire HD 10 tablet, the Show Mode Dock, which essentially turns those tablets into Echo Shows, has just gone on sale for the lowest price that it has ever been. The Show Mode Dock for Fire HD 8 is on sale for $27.99 and the Show Mode Dock for Fire HD 10 is on sale for $38.49. These are only compatible with the older 2018 8th-gen Fire HD 8, 2017 7th-gen Fire HD 8, and 2017 7th-gen Fire HD 10. These are NOT compatible with the current 2020 10th-gen Fire HD 8 and current 2019 9th-gen Fire HD 10. If you’re not sure which generation tablet you have, find its listing under You Registered Devices and the generation will be listed there. See my Show Mode Dock review for all the details, but this dock comes with a case that plugs into the micro USB port on the tablet so that it charges when you place it on the dock and automatically switches the the Echo Show-like mode when docked.

Prime Members can get 2-Months of Showtime and/or Starz for $0.99 per month

Posted by Elias Saba on July 3, 2020 — 6 Comments

Amazon is offering Prime members a 2 month subscription to Showtime and/or Starz for just $0.99 per month. You have to be a Prime member because these are subscriptions to Prime Video Channels. You can subscribe to either one or both and you will be charged $0.99 each month per channel. Your subscription will automatically renew at the regular price of $10.99 for Showtime and/or $8.99 for Starz after those first 2 months. If you only want the subscriptions during the 2-month discounted price, just be sure to go to this page in a month and cancel the subscription. Once canceled, you’ll still be able to watch until the month is over. If you’re worried you’ll forget to stop the renewal, you can subscribe right now and then immediately cancel to just get 1 month at $0.99, since you don’t have to subscribe for 2 months. This deal ends July 7, 2020.

Amazon extends Fire TV’s Free 1-year subscription of Food Network Kitchen to Echo Show owners

Posted by Elias Saba on July 2, 2020

Earlier this year, Amazon and Food Network teamed up to offer a free 1-year subscription to Food Network Kitchen to Fire TV and Fire Tablet owners. Now that offer is being extended to Echo Show owners as well. Food Network Kitchen, which normally costs $40/year or $5/month, offers live cooking classes, cooking tutorials, recipies, and commercial-free episodes of Food Network shows. To take advantage of this offer through an Echo Show, just say “Alex, subscribe to Food Network Kitchen.” To take advantage of this offer on a Fire TV or Fire Tablet, just install the Food Network Kitchen app and follow the in-app instructions. Note that your subscription will auto-renew after your free year, so you’ll probably want to turn off auto-renewal on this page here immediately after starting your free subscription.

You can set it’s light to one of several modes, like campfire or underwater, to create a fun lighting effect in the room. You can say “Alexa, start a dance party” for music and a light show to start. The Echo Glow light can also be controlled by tapping anywhere on its dome.

See these Jackbox Deals

All of the Jackbox games and party packs for Fire TV and Fire TV Stick devices have just gone on sale. Some, like the Jackbox Party Pack 6 for $20.99, are at their all time lowest prices.

The games are controlled through a smartphone, so you don’t need extra remotes or game controllers to play these games with a bunch of people. If you’re new to the series, I suggest starting with either Jackbox Party Pack 1 or Jackbox Party Pack 2, which are both on sale for 50% off at $12.49. Read more ›
