Save hundreds on Galaxy S24 or latest Samsung tablet in surprise EE summer sale
EE's sale slashes prices on some of the latest and greatest tech
Over the past couple of years EE has expanded its offering, from being a mobile phone network, to now running a complete tech store. There's currently a summer sale at EE, offering discounts on a full range of devices – not just mobile phones.
That includes headphones, soundbars, tablets and even TVs discounted – with the advantage of being able to pay monthly, by adding it to your EE bill with no fees or interest.
But some of the biggest savings are on connected devices, where you'll get a get an EE plan along with the device. The first that caught my eye was the Samsung Galaxy S24, where EE has slashed monthly prices - £10 off many of the Unlimited tariffs, or £6 a month on its cheapest plan.
I'd take the Unlimited Essentials, meaning you get the Galaxy S24 for £40 a month with unlimited data, minutes and texts. All of these will save hundreds over the 24-months of the contract, with EE breaking down the price rises over the duration of the contract too.
The Samsung Galaxy S24 is a year old now, but thanks to Samsung's 7-year software update promise, shoppers are guaranteed support up to 2031. There's also not a lot of difference between the Galaxy S24 and the new Galaxy S25, with only a minor difference in the power and only a small difference in the design.
EE isn't the only brand offering summer sales at the moment. Sky Mobile also offering a full range of discounts on its SIM plans, where consumers can pick up a 40GB SIM for £12 a month.
The Galaxy S24 isn't only Samsung device that I'd recommend, however. EE is also offering a discount on the Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE. This is Samsung's latest tablet and one of the appealing things about this tablet is the 10.9-inch size.
While Samsung has the Tab S10 Ultra (which is really expensive) and the Tab S10 Plus – both of which are more powerful – neither of them offer the more compact size of the Tab S10 FE. The Tab S10 FE also offers many of the premium features of its larger siblings, such as S Pen support and an aluminium body.
The big difference is that the Tab S10 FE has an LED display, compared to the OLED display on the other Tab S10 models. While there's a difference in display quality, I'd trade that for the smaller size which is more convenient for travelling.
As this is EE, this is for the 5G version of the tablet, which is great for browsing or watching movies on the move, without having to worry about where you'll get a connection from. The catch here is that this deal is only available to existing EE customers, but tech fans can get it from £28.80 a month – down from £32 a month – and again that's added onto their EE bill.
Shoppers can also buy the Wi-Fi version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE for £499 on Amazon. It's currently being offered with double storage free.

More than 40 MILLION Brits alerted to switch on forgotten anti-theft mobile feature as phone snatching soars
MILLIONS of mobile users across the UK have been urged to switch on little-known anti-theft settings following a spate of phone snatches. In London alone, two-thirds of thefts now relate to mobile phones, Met Detective Chief Superintendent James Conway told MPs today. 2 Criminal gangs are believed to make £50million a year from stolen phones Credit: PA Police seized more than 1,000 stolen handsets and arrested 230 people in a single week earlier this year in a crackdown on the problem. The Met Police has described it as a colossal £50million-a-year trade. Often, phone thefts have more to do with raiding people's bank accounts than value in the handset itself. A victim recently revealed how they were caught out by crafty crooks who went on to spend hundreds. Tech companies have developed a number of tools to help prevent such incidents. Google has a few for Android users which detect the motion associated with a physical snatch. When a snatch is detected your phone will lock so thieves can't go through all your banking apps and more. Samsung, which uses Android on its phones, alerted more than 40million Samsung Account holders of its anti-theft features. The firm says these features will now also be available to even more devices soon, having started with the launch of the Galaxy S25 series in February. Among Samsung's own added efforts is Theft Protection, a multi-layered suite of features developed to safeguard personal data, even in high-risk situations such as robbery. Google reveals clever trick to prevent thieves from emptying your accounts on the Android 15 "Samsung is deeply committed to working closely with the Home Office on the issue of mobile phone theft and related crimes and we're in constant collaboration with our partners across the industry, to look at new and existing solutions to help combat this complex issue and ultimately help improve the safety of mobile phone users," said Annika Bizon, Mobile Experience (MX) VP of Product and Marketing, UK&I at Samsung. "Our recent One UI 7 update built further on existing protections with new anti-theft features such as identity check, biometric authentication and security delay, all featured in our latest Galaxy S25 series. "These features have now also been rolled out into a range of models across our devices and further updates will follow. "We must do everything we can to ensure the safety and security of our customers when they are using their mobile devices and we will continue to work hard to ensure our customers are aware of the wide range of security features available to them."

WhatsApp will no longer be available on these phones - is yours on the list?
As of June 1, the popular messaging app stopped working on certain smartphones. Whatsapp is a popular messaging service used by millions of people in the UK. Whether it's to message your pals about a catch up or to talk to colleagues about work, WhatsApp has quickly become many peoples go to messaging service. However, as of June 1, the popular app no longer works on phones that are more than 10-years-old. This is due to changes in WhatApp's compatibility with operating systems. As a result, older smartphones will no longer have access to the app due to security concerns. The major change was set to take place in May but was pushed back to June. Now iPhones that were released in 2014 or earlier and cannot upgrade to iOS 15.1 will no longer be able to use the app, reports the Liverpool Echo. In terms of Android devices, the minimum requirement is Android OS 5.0, which was released way back in 2014 - over 11 years ago. However, users weren't surprised that the app was disappearing, as WhatsApp sent notifications warning its users that they need to "update to the latest version of iOS to continue using WhatsApp." This was sent to users who are running anything older than iOS 15.1 on their iPhones. In terms of Apple smartphones, those using an iPhone 5s, iPhone 6 or an iPhone 6 Plus will no longer be able to message through the Meta app. This is due to the devices not being compatible with iOS 18. For Android, phones like Samsung's Galaxy S III, the HTC One X, and the Sony Xperia Z will no longer be able to use WhatsApp. According to 9to5Mac, Meta has revealed on its FAQ page that the reason behind the decision to remove support of this app on older phones is because they do not have the latest updates or functionality required to run WhatsApp. Even Apple has disregarded these older models as over a year ago the tech brand declared that the iPhone 6 was "obsolete". This means that the company no longer repairs or services the device, and third-party service providers can no longer order parts for the product. While WhatsApp may have disappeared off legacy phones, the messaging service is becoming a more impressive service for those who still have access. In April of this year, the app announced that it was gaining 12 new features for users to enjoy. WhatsApp is currently one of the worlds most used messaging apps as over two billion people worldwide are active users of the service. On their blog, WhatsApp said: "To keep you in the loop, we'll be sharing regular roundups of the latest updates, tools, and settings." This roundup included the new features that have been recently rolled out, but shoppers may not be aware of. This includes: Chats Online indicator in group chats: To help you know if people are around to chat, you can now see how many people are 'online' in real-time, right under the group name. Highlight notifications in groups: You can use the new 'Notify for' setting and select 'Highlights' to limit notifications for @mentions, replies, and messages from saved contacts or 'All' to receive all notifications. Events updates: You can now create an event in a 1:1 conversation. WhatsApp has also added the ability to RSVP as 'maybe,' invite a plus one, add end date and time for longer events, and pin the event in a chat. Tappable reactions: Now you can quickly view everyone else's reactions and tap the one you want to send. Document scanning on iPhone: Scan and send documents directly from WhatsApp on iPhone. Select 'Scan document' from the attachment section and follow the steps to scan, crop, and save the document. Default App for iPhone: With the latest iOS update, you can now also set WhatsApp as your default messaging and calling app on your iPhone. To make the switch, go to Settings > Default Apps and select WhatsApp. Calls Pinch to zoom in video calls: iPhone users can now pinch to zoom in on a video while on a video call to get a closer look at your own or peer video. Add to call from a chat: Add someone to an ongoing call directly from a chat thread by tapping the call icon on the top and selecting 'Add to call'.
