SAVE UP TO 40%: As of August 7, Amazon devices are discounted by as much as 40% so you can save big on items like the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K or a Kindle Paperwhite for kids. Check out our top picks below.
Not only does Amazon serve as our one-click online retailer for buying pretty much anything, they also make some solid electronic devices. The Fire TV Stick has been a staple for many of us, and it's hard to beat the incredible Kindle Paperwhite when it comes to e-readers.
If one of your tasks this week is to upgrade some tired tech in your home before back to school hits, Amazon has some serious discounts on several devices this week. Here are some of our favorite deals to grab this week.
But before we start, it's worth mentioning that some sale prices are exclusive for Amazon Prime members. To score those deals, you'll need to be signed up and logged into your Prime account, which costs $14.99 per month or $139 annually. Prime membership comes with some pretty great perks like access to Prime Video streaming service, free two-day shipping on countless items, and access to exclusive sales.
If you don't yet have a streaming stick that can support 4K, you might be dealing with sluggish loading times. Thankfully, today's deal on the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K solves that problem with snappy loading times and support for WiFi 6. The Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K also comes with an Alexa-enabled remote, which means you can ask Alexa to start playing your favorite show or tune into a specific channel. The remote also has four pre-programmed app buttons so you can quickly tune into your favorite streaming services like Netflix and Prime Video.
Now that we're well into August, all eyes are on the back-to-school season. Send students off with a great e-reader by snagging the Kindle Paperwhite Kids Essentials bundle. Today's sale price of $167.97 gives you the Kindle Paperwhite Kids device with 16GB of storage space, a kid's cover, power adapter, and a screen protector. The bundle sale price knocks $35 off the price of buying these items separately.
The Kindle Paperwhite has long been the front-runner of e-books, with a screen that's designed to look like you're reading pages of a physical book. The device has a 6.8-inch screen with a glare-free design, so kids can take the reader with them to the park on a sunny day.
Amazon also added in some parental reassurance by making the Kindle Paperwhite Kids waterproof. Plus, it comes with a two-year worry-free warranty that covers accidental damage. And to make this deal even better, you also get a free year-long subscription to Amazon Kids+ which is packed with ad-free books and games for kids.
Amazon Prime members are in for a special TV deal this week. Your membership grants you eligibility to score the 40-inch Amazon Fire TV 2-Series TV for just $159.99 which means you'll get a 36% discount off the list price of $249.99. This is just $10 away from the lowest price we've ever seen at Amazon.
If you're not a Prime member, don't worry. You can still score a discounted price of $189.99 for a 24% discount.
The 40-inch 2-Series offers 1080p HD resolution for crisp picture quality. It also comes with a Fire TV Alexa voice remote, so you can ask Alexa to replay your favorite episode or change the channel. The deal also includes TV legs should you want to set it on an entertainment center instead of mounting it to the wall.
To make this deal even better, Amazon tossed in six months of free access to MGM+ so you'll be able to stream your favorites from Hollywood.
One thing to note is that this TV doesn't support 4K resolution. If you're prioritizing getting a 4K TV, check out the Amazon Fire TV 50-inch 4-Series, which is also discounted for Prime members.
