Amazon's secret hidden device page is bursting with tech deals today — including an Fire TV for $130 off
Psst: Did you know Amazon has a hidden section devoted to secret sales on its own devices? It's true! On any given day, the retail giant adds and removes deals from this secret hub on a handful of Echo smart devices, Fire TV video streamers and Kindle e-readers — and the savings are great. If you’re looking to build out a smart home or just want to read mountains of books on one goes-anywhere screen, you need to know about this page.
Here are our favorite finds.
This Amazon Fire TV gives you everything you need for TV viewing of the future, including access to more than a million movies and TV episodes. Enjoy crisp visuals thanks to a 4K Ultra HD picture.
"I don’t need a lot of bells and whistles, so I like when the things I need a TV for are simple and seamless," said a five-star fan. "It’s super easy switching between the TV and three gaming consoles. Easy to add an HTML splitter and take advantage of more devices on one input if needed."
The Ring Video Doorbell 3 is a smart doorbell with 24/7 HD video streaming and a wide field of view. Simply sync the device with your smartphone, tablet or laptop via Wi-Fi and the Ring app, so you can always keep an eye on your home — even if you’re at work, on vacation or running an errand. Powered with a rechargeable battery or hardwired to an existing doorbell system, this smart doorbell features two-way talk, so you can chat with anyone at your door without physically answering it.
One (mostly) happy customer raved about all of the perks of owning this doorbell. "When you are hiding inside from salespeople or annoying neighbors, you can watch them on your phone to see when they finally leave," they wrote. "You can ogle your Amazon packages anxiously awaiting your arrival home. You can spy on the house that the owners illegally turned into an Airbnb across the driveway and get annoyed when they think your yard is part of their rental agreement and let their dogs poo in your driveway."
This little device gives you instant access to hundreds of streaming apps and channels. Setup is easy, too: Just plug the Fire TV Stick 4K into one of your 4K TV’s HDMI ports and log in to your home Wi-Fi. After that, you're ready to go. Built-in Alexa voice remote allows you to change channels using the power of your voice.
"If you get this new Fire Stick, forget cable," said a happy customer. "I love [it]. I need one for each room. It has more features and stations that are free."
Want to catch up on your reading the modern way? The Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition Bundle holds all your purchased books but weighs just six ounces. It also grants you access to Amazon’s ginormous Kindle library — get thousands of titles delivered straight to your e-reader. Read for up to 10 weeks without needing a recharge (not a typo). The Paperwhite has a screen that looks like, well, actual paper, so you can get more of that real-book feel. This set comes with its own case and stand.
"When I read about the new Kindle Paperwhite I really couldn’t believe I needed another device, but I am an avid reader, and it just sounded great," said a satisfied shopper. "I ordered it. I love it. It reads so much like a book, has more memory and holds a charge for longer. It was a great buy."
Let's be honest: You deserve a break. The Omni Series TV is here to help — partly by featuring an integrated hands-free Alexa voice assistant. So, you can say things like, "Alexa, turn on the TV," without having to lift your tired limbs off the couch. And, at $70 off, this is a total steal.
"This TV is amazing!" said a happy customer. "I'm blown away by this TV's picture. The setup was easy."
The Echo Show 8 has a compact 8-inch display, making it perfect to perch just about anywhere. It also acts as a mini entertainment hub, giving you access to videos, TV shows, movies or the news with Prime Video, Hulu, NBC and more. You can even make video calls and shop online!
“Every day I learn something new that Echo can do," said a five-star reviewer. "The screen quality is good...So far have used it to check on the weather each day, play a couple of short games. Listen to national news from CBS....”
If you have Amazon Prime, you’ll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $25 or more.)
