Isn't there an option without any annual fee?

yes - it still works - gives a live video feed to phone and echo dots and show when someone rings the bell.

So you have a record someone rang the bell or motion happened in the garden - but wont know who if you missed it.

These were recommended during the prime day sales. There's a thread on them on boards.

€490 atm. Keep an eye on it and see if it drops.

Hard to say unless you provide specific details on your box specs to be fair.

The android boxes are poorly built except for a specific few and are outperformed by the stick when in same price range usually.

In the higher price range they are outperformed by the Cube.

Any higher just get the Shield.

IIRC this doesn't naturally support multiple zones. You'd have to put thermostatic valves on each rad to replicate heating zones.

I bought one of those a couple of months ago based on the Laptop forum recommendations - it's superb and great value. No regrets at all

I shouldn't do this as there's clearly a link to Geekbench scores on the link you provided and you should be able to make the jump to check what the scores of a Firestick is and compare that way...

However:

You're at the same level as a 1st Gen Firestick 4K.

Firestick probably does a better job of supporting audio and visual codes properly however.

look for refurbished on ebay. you will get twice as much for your money. only problem is second hand laptop battieries would only last 1 to 2 hours.

i do this all the time. just need to check rating of seller.

Can anyone tell me the difference between Fire tablet with ads vs tablet without ads?

The Firestick was showing unavailable for me today and for the past week. When i changed my delivery address on the right hand side of the product page to Parcel Motel / Wizard it became available for me.

Just in case its happening to anyone else.

There are ads on the lock screen with the ads one. I have gotten a good few with ads over the years. On each one I got onto chat and told them it was a present for a child and they disabled the ads for me free of charge.

Sorry I didn't see the link and didn't realise to compare their test scores.

I had my mates address in NI set as default but noticed at the top of the page that delivery would be to here in Donegal. Clicked on that and set the default NI address again and low and behold the 4k fire stick was listed again but with stock available from 28th November.

It caught me out for a week! Glad you got sorted.

I've noticed a few items, that I have been keeping an eye on over the last few weeks, have gone up in price in the last few days and today.

I expect these to be reduced in the coming days to previous price under the pretense of 'Black Friday'

Fire he 10 back down to 89 sterling. Decent tablet

Oh - it was showing available to buy for me today at 29.99

I guess this is one of those scalper things - buy up all the stock when cheap - and sell for 55 to 70 euros a piece throughout they year on adverts.ie - theres so many sellers of these there!

Set up an alert on camelcamelcamel if interested and wait a while - Amazon might keep adding stock.

Its a great device for watching streaming stuff - and the remote controls the tv as well - only major thing it lacks over android boxes is it has no usb port for reading files off usb or sd cards - that would have been nice.

Edit: ahhh - just googled and you can read usb sticks - I might even have this cable too - must give it a go

Think it should be ok for 2 basic zones as per below link. But I think it gets awkward if you also want room by room control with the smart TRVs on top of the zones. A TRV calling for heat will never receive that heat if the zone valve isn't open.

Is this comparable to any of the older iPads specs wise?
