And if you’ve been looking for some last minute gift options, these bargains are worth considering, especially if you want to take advantage of Amazon Prime’s free expedited delivery service.
Amazon Fire TV devices
Heat up your home entertainment system (not literally) with some of Amazon’s Fire TV devices. Offering an all-in-one media player with in-built speakers and hands-free controls thanks to the devices inbuilt microphones and Alexa, there’s currently 27% off the all-new Fire TV Cube.
If you don’t need all the bells and whistles offered up by the Fire TV cube, Amazon’s also brought the Fire TV Stick 4K Max back down to its all-time-low Black Friday price of AU$49 ahead of the silly season.
While you’ll have to pay for your subscriptions separately, both these gadgets fall into our best streaming service device list and give you a handy hub to access all the streaming services you could ever need. Plus with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos compatibility, you’ll enjoy refined pictures in 4K and immersive three-dimensional audio, so long as your setup has that capability.

Kindle Paperwhite
If you don’t want to be cooped up at home all summer, you can also bring your entertainment with you thanks to savings across Amazon’s Kindle Paperwhite ereaders.
Picture this – you’re relaxing on a beach, the sun setting in the distance and in your hands you have all your favourite books right at your fingertips. Ereaders have eased the burden of lugging around all the books you want to read by conveniently storing them in one handy little device, and if you want to pick up the Kindle Paperwhite – one of the best ereaders currently available – now’s a great chance.
The Kindle Paperwhite is a compact and sleek device perfect for bringing your library with you while you’re on the go. Small enough to toss into a handbag but with the ability to store thousands of titles, the convenience of this gadget will help make your summer holiday adventures even more stress free, especially since the device also has a waterproof rating of IPX8 so you can enjoy your novels by the pool.
After something with a few more features and a larger storage? The Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition has also been slashed by AU$50 off ahead of Christmas.
The Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition offers both USB-C and wireless charging, so you won’t be left without your ereader for long. There’s heaps of space for both ebooks and graphic novels on this device, and its 6.8-inch E Ink display is very easy to read in this 205g ereader.
