Samsung fans can snap up £300 cash thanks to Sky S10 Ultra tablet deal
Tech lovers can currently get £300 in the bank when they buy the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra thanks to a new deal from Sky and Samsung A fresh deal from Samsung and Sky allows shoppers to pocket a cool £300 directly into their bank account—but it won't last forever. Telecoms giant Sky is offering customers the chance to spread the cost of the latest Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra, which retails at over £1000, for £30 per month. The cherry on top is that Samsung enthusiasts can also bag £300 cashback due to a new promotion. Samsung has kicked off its Shine Bright campaign, allowing customers who purchase certain products to receive a hefty sum back into their bank accounts. After snapping up eligible items and they're in hand, all Samsung devotees need to do is visit this link and claim their cashback. If this Sky offer tickles your fancy, all you need to do is purchase the tablet here, then once it arrives in the post, head over to Samsung's promotional page here and submit a claim. Customers will need to lodge the claim within 30 days and provide proof of purchase, the device's IMEI and the serial number. Once the claim is approved, Samsung will transfer £300 directly into your bank account. Simple, isn't it? Sky is letting customers pay for the tablet at £30 per month on a 48-month contract. This means tablet fans can use the Samsung cashback to cover the cost of the device for several months, or splash out on something else entirely. Grab £300 cash thanks to Samsung and Sky cashback deal Product Description The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra boasts a speedy MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ processor, an included S Pen stylus, and a whopping 14.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 120Hz display. Don't fancy Sky's offering? Samsung is offering £100 cashback on the Galaxy Watch Ultra, meaning this Amazon purchase will cost £399. Samsung is also handing out £200 cashback on the Galaxy S25 Ultra phone from Samsung here, including £200 trade-in credit on old phones. Our tech gurus at the Daily Express have given the Samsung Galaxy S10 Ultra model a thorough review right here and they're singing its praises. They declared: "Is the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra a brilliant tablet? 100% yes!". "This device is incredibly powerful, brimming with smart features, exudes a premium look and delivers performance that won't buckle under pressure. The AMOLED screen is simply breathtaking, and you even get that S Pen stylus in the box - something Apple charges over £100 to include." However, tech editor David Snelling did have one gripe with the screen. He admitted: "However, no matter how good it is, that 14.6-inch panel is just too large for me, especially when travelling, and that's crucial as this is when, like most people, I use my tablet the most. "Of course, some will adore the gigantic display, and if you genuinely require a super-sized screen, then this is a solid, albeit pricey, option. It ticks all the right boxes and you certainly won't be disappointed with your purchase."

Ninja CREAMi that makes slushies, ice cream, milkshake and more drops below £200 in time for heatwave
The perfect accompaniment to the warmer weather Nothing says summer like a waffle cone full of ice cream. Or a bowl of lemon sorbet. Or an ice-cold milkshake. Or a frozen margarita. Or... well, you get the gist. Those who love a frozen treat in the sun are now in luck, as there's a huge discount on a high-quality frozen dessert maker at Amazon. The Ninja CREAMi Deluxe is beloved for its ability to make ice cream, gelato, sorbet, milkshakes, frozen slush drinks and more - and now it's £198.50 down from £249.99 at Amazon - that's 21% off. The innovative frozen dessert maker has ten functions for all sorts of delicious foods and drinks, and even has the ability to make two flavours in one - so no more fighting over who wants strawberry and who prefers chocolate. Plus, shoppers have full control over flavours, sugar content, ingredients and more, so they can experiment with their imaginations in their own kitchen. Plus, it comes with three 709ml Deluxe Tubs, so there'll be enough frozen treats to go around, whether shoppers are hosting a gathering or simply making sure the family stays cool in the heat. The compact CREAMi will easily fit into any kitchen, and it's easy to clean with dishwasher-safe parts. If the CREAMi isn't quite within budget, the VonShef Ice Cream Maker is available for £39.99 at Debenhams. This metallic silver machine has a 2L capacity, and can be used for ice cream, gelato or frozen yogurt. Alternatively, those who want a smaller ice cream machine could take a look at the Lakeland Mini Digital Ice Cream Maker for £14.99 down from £19.99. This compact bit of kit has a 0.5L capacity and makes homemade ice cream in just 25 minutes. However, the Ninja CREAMi has become something of a fan favourite, amassing a 4.4 star rating on Amazon. One shopper said: "I absolutely love the Ninja Creami. It's innovative and easy to use. I've had the machine for a few days now and have created some amazing desserts that are 0% sugar and 0% fat. Pimm's sorbet is a favourite, along with the different varieties of ice cream that I've packed with fresh fruit." Another said: "The Ninja CREAMi Deluxe has revolutionised my dessert-making experience at home. This 10-in-1 machine isn't just an ice cream maker; it's a versatile appliance that crafts everything from creamy gelato to refreshing slushies. With its 50% larger capacity compared to the original model, I can now prepare more servings to delight my family and friends." A third added: "Absolutely love this ice cream maker. So easy to use and clean." Some shoppers did share some advice about the product, however. One said: "Fantastic thing, makes a great creamy ice creams. Read the manual before using, there are many rules to follow and it can be confusing at the beginning. If not followed, you can simply destroy your Ninja CREAMi. I love the fact that tubs are not huge and they don't take a lot of freezer space. The only bad thing is that lids are pretty loose in two tubs, so I need to be very careful when putting them in the freezer." Another said, " I love my Ninja. It is very noisy, but it's for short use. I've had this for around I think a year now and sometimes need to put it on an extra spin, so maybe the blades need sharpened or replaced, but overall, it makes the best ice cream ever. The recipe book that comes with it is perfect, and you know exactly what ingredients you're eating." Overall, for a versatile frozen dessert maker that can be used for all sorts of treats, the Ninja CREAMi might just be perfect.
