I'm thinking if getting a Fire Tablet for an older person so that they can use Internet.

Thanks

The extra 100 well worth it for 6 year warranty with richersounds

I tried mine and think its set to amazon.com rather than uk as gave me price in dollars? not sure how to change it! I don't need to buy more!

I had that and got onto alexa support via the app, they changed it

The language needs to be English (UK) then, not US

10 is bigger but also heavier. Depends on your use case.
You'll need to add the Google play store to it yourself first to get access to the wider android app universe. The native browser on it is pants.

I think you can get firefox for it, which should be the job.

Plus RS will ship the TV without it being shredded to pieces.

Yes, gutted at the price drop, I bought mine two days before prime day was announced. Just check if it will fit your space. I needed to get a corner kit and it's sold out in Europe and it was a nightmare. Very decent camera though. I needed to buy the chime too as it won't run off my existing bell.

The V3 version looks a better deal - 119 or 129 for the the 4 second pre roll. It also comes with the corner bracket you mention and you get an Alexa Show 5 included

All 8 Harry Potter films in 4k for £65

I already have the full set on bluray but i've long been tempted to get the 4k (HP is a big hit in the jones household) but i was never sure how good the transfer would be. It seemed to release with very little fanfair and thought it was just a retransfer as opposed to full fat 4k.

This is a good price though for the whole set (considering i just preordered LOTRs steelbooks for £100)

bobbyg · 13-10-2020 01:55PM

Can someone recommend which ring doorbell I should buy and do they work with google hub, a quick check on google seems to suggest they do.

bilbot79 · 13-10-2020 01:55PM

Good reduction on OnePlus 8 Pro. 649gbp compared to 919e on website. Bit the bullet

Supercell · 13-10-2020 01:56PM

Picked up a Fire HD8 32GB for £44.99, great deal, will cancel the trial (again) in a months time.

Thanks lads . I was reading this review of them an do there's a few drawbacks.

Should I search for another brand bearing in mind it's just for basic use like supermarket shopping, banking and reading newspaper online due to cocooning.

I want to buy a pair of Merrell hiking shoes. Women's Moab 2 GTX Low Rise Hiking Shoes is listed as a Prime Day Deal at 57.40 but when I click on the link they come up at 91.99. Why does that happen?

This seems like a good deal Philips-Sonicare-DiamondClean-Electric-Toothbrush

Had both (but not a pink one though

) and I find the rotary style oral-b much better.
This Oral-B is only 33 Euros right now.

What would such adapter do? I bet you inside it is just bridged cables...

I have the 2nd generation, currently on offer at £59. Not sure about Google hub as I've Alexa everywhere, show arrived today.

Pros:
great quality camera
Simple set up
Does the job
Comes with all tools, including a drill bit

Cons
Battery isn't removable so if you're not wiring it in you'll need to remove it to charge
Quite wide, you may need a corner or wedge kit. Corner kit not currently available in Europe.
You will probably also need a chime

Note this is not the ring doorbell 2, it's the 2nd generation, fittings for the 2 won't work

Just to let people know, the bonus £10 on a £100 top-up is still working, Ordered it about half an hour ago, balance was topped up 20 minutes later

Is this topup on a giftcard? Did you get an offer by email?

I'm a big fan of Nest and have loads of Nest stuff in the house, including the smoke alarm but I have to admit the price of these is crazy. It's just a smoke alarm.

Free Prime delivery is only for Germany and Austria on Amazon.de

Nabbed myself a Ring doorbell, along with a chime (no deal for Prime day), a Blink Mini (for £24.99, didn't realise there was a way to get it for £14.99 and it's too late now) as well as a bluetooth speaker for the shower. All in all got about €200 worth of stuff for €150, so can't complain.

I have mine plugged into the hdmi port obviously but the usb cable goes into the USB port in the tv too.

So now, when I turn the tv on, the fire stick powers up immediately and comes on screen.

If I buy a power adapter and run it to the doorbell will this provide constant power to the bell?
