HP Stream 7 Tablet £49 WITH CODE

hots · 25-03-2015 1:56pm

Got the same and picked up a couple of micro sds (one that I promised the girlfriend a while ago) and a cheap case off ebay too... What are people hoping to use theirs for? It was definitely an impulse buy but thinking of trying to use it for TV somehow, probably through the chromecast too. Lot's of tinkering to be had for €70 anyway.

Paddy_man · 25-03-2015 2:42pm

Total impulse buy. but am sure i can use it for Xbox Smartglass or as you said, Chromecast stuff..

ActingDanClark · 25-03-2015 2:56pm

Got confirmation Monday, status hasn't altered from processing since. PayPal still pending

JanneG · 25-03-2015 5:01pm

My order appears to have disappeared...

Use the link in the confirmation email.

Stokolan · 25-03-2015 11:38pm

Showing as in process for me.

I really need to look into xbmc properly, I've had two half hearted efforts at it so far and given up.

Some good information here in Android thread "Reccomend an Android box that runs XBMC" and tutorials on YouTube and google SEO Michael for some useful addons. You can put total Installer on it and put Andy's build from community builds on it to have it set up automatically if you like.
Was looking at a Samrick case on Amazon for it.

Leslie91 · 26-03-2015 11:09am

This has expired right in that promo codes are no longer doing the biz?

I think an automatic set-up might be the right one and then tinker around later, had looked as SEO Michael alright and tried following a few of his guides, think I was just too zoned out after work to follow. Cheers for the tips!

Got shipping confirmation today from Microsoft, in transit with UPS.
Ironic that their mail ended up in Outlook Junk :P

Yes, at the checkout

lulzordan · 27-03-2015 7:58pm

Just made the purchase with the new code. Got the confirmation email.

I entered separate addresses so that the shipping one says Ireland.. And paid with PayPal.

Thanks for the deal

iatethepies · 27-03-2015 8:42pm

Received mine today from a very helpful UPS driver, tried to deliver it 3 times, fair play to him. Have to say overall I'm delighted with this, if I wasn't so cheap I'd say it was worth £100 but for €70 it's a steal. I was never able to get Citrix to work on my Android tab, some streaming sites wouldn't co-operate either. So far this has handled everything I've tried. Haven't tried XBMC so can't comment on that.

I have experienced the issue with the audio output jack, when there is no audio I hear a distinct crackle but when music is playing I don't hear it. Not an audiophile so this could bother others a lot more than me but while listening to music/watching movies I don't think the majority will be put out.

Office installed easily, device set up was straight forward. Feels relatively sturdy, has a bit of weight to it. 1 gig of Ram isn't going to set the world on fire but so far, in my very-very limited play around, this has held up pretty well.

If you're on the fence I'd recommend giving this a go for €70, a full blown windows OS can get a lot done and so far I can see myself leaving behind my Samsung tab on occasion in favour of this.

Bought a Linx 8 for £69.99 this morning....God damn you Bargain Alerts, currently hovering over this now that the code works again lol

kildare75 · 28-03-2015 11:32am

Morning all, just wondering if anyone who ordered last Tuesday got theirs yet..
Mine says processing and funds have gone from bank account..
Thanks for any help

I ordered on Tuesday and got a dispatched email earlier today.

tomslick · 28-03-2015 12:34pm

Ordered this morning using PC25 code. Thanks to all involved in bringing this bargain alert. But, as usual didn't want or need this, too good to miss out on.

Icdb · 28-03-2015 12:42pm

Ordered Monday arrived Friday 4.30. Installed win 10 preview from windows update took ages. Only problem is I forgot my otg cable and can't use tablet until I install the HP drivers again using a mouse because touch screen driver didn't load. Will get it later and update about how win 10 runs.

Before updating to win 10
Registered office 365 and after a bit of faffing about managed to get my 60 min Skype applied to my existing Skype account.

Got miracast working with my mk808b plus which is pretty cool.

At what stage do you enter the promo code, I don't want to risk paying full whack!

Ordered Tuesday, just received notice of dispatch now.

Junglewoman · 28-03-2015 2:08pm

Just ordered, many thanks OP and to the others who assisted re promo-code entry!

jawacz · 28-03-2015 4:01pm

I see that it is now showing out of stock, I contacted Microsoft live chat last Thursday while attempting to purchase but both previous codes would not work and was told that the offer expired!

kildare75 · 28-03-2015 5:49pm

just got the same dispatch email with tracking info, thanks again

TallGlass · 28-03-2015 5:59pm

Sold out

Don't know if its good or bad.

I don't even know if I need one.

I don't like been left out on bargains that fellow bargain hunters are talking about

Twilightning · 28-03-2015 6:46pm

I ordered one on Tuesday and got the dispatch notification email also but it looks as though the transaction disappeared from my bank account altogether. The €70 odd I spent on it seems to be back into my account (it was definitely deducted before) and it's nowhere to be seen on the statement.

Stokolan · 28-03-2015 8:04pm

Got a Dispatch email today myself. Hopefully wont take too long to arrive

stanley1 · 29-03-2015 12:27pm

not bad for price, 1gb ram might be a drawback.

the_pod · 29-03-2015 12:54pm

I ordered on Monday and it's still "In process"

Arrived a few minutes ago, no dispatch email and still in process on my account

Lads I ordered one thinking it had a HDMI port (a review I read said it did) but doesnt and that was key for me. Tried canceling it but MS wont let me (still pending).

If any one is interested in at the euro price charged on my card let me know. Otherwise I'll send it back

Moribund · 30-03-2015 11:02pm
