Apple can't compete with £29 Samsung Galaxy S10 Ultra deal that Sky is offering
Tech-savvy shoppers seeking a high-end tablet for their artistic and browsing needs without the hefty price tag could be in luck. Sky is currently offering Samsung aficionados an opportunity to spread the cost of owning a Galaxy Tablet S10 Ultra with an affordable monthly plan.
Apple might need to step aside, as Sky's deal allows customers to snap up Samsung's top-tier tablet for just £29 a month – with an appealing freebie thrown into the mix. For a limited period, there's even a chance to snag a £329 trackpad and keyboard combo compatible with the tablet absolutely gratis. These extras automatically get added to the basket along with the tablet purchase.
The Samsung Galaxy S10 Ultra represents Samsung's elite tablet offering, boasting an array of features like a zippy MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ processor, an included S Pen stylus, and a substantial 14.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED display that operates smoothly with a 120Hz refresh rate.
Not to mention, it's equipped with a large capacity battery to keep you going for prolonged browsing and working sessions without the fret over power depletion. When you compare it to Sky's £34 a month iPad Pro, this Samsung deal might be much more convincing, especially with the huge freebie it comes with.

Product Description
In addition, tech experts from the Daily Express laid out their thoughts on the Samsung Galaxy S10 Ultra in this review, praising it highly: "Is the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra a brilliant tablet? 100% yes!".
Tech editor David Snelling, hailed it a top-of-the-line tablet, saying: "This gadget is supremely powerful, comes packed with smart features, looks premium and has performance that won't crumble under pressure.
"The AMOLED screen is simply stunning and you even get that S Pen stylus in the box - that's something Apple charges over £100 to add."
However, David was put off with the screen size admitting that "However, no matter how good it is, that 14.6-inch panel is just too big for me, especially when travelling, and that's important as this is the time, like most people, when I use my tablet the most."
Further stating that those who have a soft spot for larger screens may love this behemoth and might benefit from the massive size for which it's the best but somewhat pricey option, concluding "Of course, some will love the mammoth display and if you genuinely need a super-sized screen then this is a solid, if very expensive, option. It ticks all the right boxes and you really won't be disappointed with your purchase."

Apple Watch Series 7 discounted to £155 in rare deal
Tech fans can save £244 on the Apple Watch when they shop this refurbished deal Monitoring daily step counts, fitness targets, or the crucial sleep score, there are countless extra advantages to sporting a smartwatch beyond the convenience of connecting to a mobile phone. That's why brands such as Apple, Samsung, Google Pixel, and Garmin have gained such popularity, though their costs can be deterring. The latest Apple watch for example, the Series 10, debuted at £399, though a current Argos offer reduced the cost to £299. Its incredibly sleek design and cutting-edge OLED display are two premium features that some might argue warrant the expense, yet it remains a substantial outlay in one go. This is why affordable tech is gaining momentum, and in the most recent offer, customers can secure a different Apple Watch for £155. Wowcher has introduced the Series 7 model to its money-saving platform at a considerably reduced rate, purely because it is refurbished. Back in 2021 this model debuted for hundreds more, though for those who don't object to a few marks of usage the model costs much less. Customers can select between a 41mm or 45mm screen size and the conditions of their preferred pre-owned device. Having reported on numerous Apple launches we understand it originally retailed for £399 for the GPS model - not the £419 Wowcher suggests. Regardless, that's still a reduction of £244, as we reported for the Liverpool Echo. Wowcher categorises the state of the models by grades B or C. The platform explains: "A few signs of wear-and-tear show that it's clearly seen use, but overall it's in good shape. There might be minor surface marks, but functionality is completely intact." The latest Apple Watch Series 10 (from 2024) operates on watchOS 11, and the Series 7 remains compatible with that system, despite being three years older. This means users will be able to receive updates and maintain their device as current as possible. Regarding features, the model includes everything we'd anticipate from an Apple wearable - there's robust battery life, fitness monitoring, and intelligent notifications (provided you own an iPhone). The model can also monitor blood oxygen levels, heart rate, and features ECG capability. All functions which are proving hit with customers, as reviews on a competing Amazon listing demonstrate - the Prime retailer is offering a refurbished Watch7 for £158. One customer commented: "So far I love every aspect of the watch, the app is much better than some. I use the watch with Strava app as do running and workouts. I find the GPS, calorie, Heart monitor, and step count all good!". Another buyer remarked: "The ECG and oxygen reader has been a life saver too, it's been great for piece of mind. The only reason it's lost a star is because I can't work out why the notifications are not so prominent anymore." Nevertheless, there are some drawbacks to the Wowcher offer our shopping team believes is worth highlighting. The first concerns the delivery cost. Despite being a £155 deal, customers will need to pay an additional £8.99 for postage. Another issue relates to the Wowcher voucher redemption process. Wowcher operates by highlighting vouchers, which shoppers have a fortnight to claim after purchase. After completing the checkout process, customers receive an email containing a voucher code and instructions on how to redeem it.

Shoppers 'won't go back to Apple Watch' after using Fitbit Versa 4 with 'unbelievable' battery
The smartwatch's incredible charge is one of its key features, boasting six days or more of battery life. Smartwatches are a crucial part of everyday life for many of us. As well as telling the time, they help us monitor our steps, track our fitness, receive texts and calls, and record our workouts. Top tech brands have launched their own timepieces, with the Apple Watch SE 2 and the Samsung Galaxy Watch6 two popular models from big names. But another popular brand is Fitbit, which is known for having incredible battery life compared to its rivals. And the Google Fitbit Versa 4 even has shoppers saying they'll "never go back" to Apple. You can snap up this smartwatch at a £20 discount on Amazon, with it coming down to £128.99. The Versa 4 is available in four colours; waterfall blue, black, beet, and pink sand - with the latter two designs costing £126. As expected, the smartwatch's incredible charge is one of its key features, boasting six days or more of battery life. It is compatible with iOS 15 or higher and Android OS 9.0 or higher and allows users to get calls, texts, and notifications through Bluetooth. The water-resistant Versa 4 model has been "built for better fitness results," according to Amazon. It has a built-in GPS and workout intensity map, a daily readiness score, dozens of exercise modes, while also offering 24.7 heart-rate tracking and a daily sleep score. For anyone looking for something from one of the bigger names, the Apple Watch SE 2 can be snapped up for £219 on Amazon, while the Samsung Galaxy Watch6 is currently £279 at Argos, its lowest ever price. Shoppers on a budget may want to consider the Cillso Smart Watch. It is the number one best-seller for smartwatches on Amazon and is now just £23.99, down 82 per cent from £129.99. Back to the Google Fitbit Versa 4, it has a 4.3-rating from around 1,800 reviews and is a designated Amazon's Choice product, which means it is highly rated, well-priced, and available to ship immediately. One satisfied customer said: "I've had a fair few smart watches over the last year or so; Versa 2, Galaxy Watch 4, Apple Watch SE, and now this. I can honestly say I prefer this one over the rest. "The battery is unbelievable. From fully charged , I have worn it every day for around 9 to 10 hours including using at the gym, getting notifications, and using it to accept calls, and it is now a full week later and the battery is still on 40 per cent. Considering the Apple Watch and Galaxy Watch had to be charged every single day, this is amazing. "It's easy to understand unlike the apple watch when it comes to fitness tracking as it just gives you the info you want. Overall, after a year of searching for the perfect smart watch, this one is easily the perfect one for me." Another five-star reviewer hailed it as an excellent fitness tracker. They said: "In my opinion, a fitness watch should be a fitness watch, and not a mini phone on your wrist. I replaced my Apple Watch with this and would never go back. Tech deal of the week Shoppers keen to take their fitness to the next level would benefit from purchasing a smartwatch. One of which is on the popular Jugeman Smartwatch. Normally retailing for £99.99, shoppers can now snap up this 4.8 star rated gadget with the pink strap for only £22.79 in a limited time deal. Boasting a 1.92-inch HD touch screen, shoppers can truly make this smartwatch their own as it comes with over 220 personalised watch faces to choose from. Featuring an ultra lightweight design to provide a comfortable and relaxed fit, the smartwatch will monitor your heart rate throughout the day as well as analyse your sleep. On top of this, the budget watch can track over 113 sports and monitor how many calories you have burned. Shoppers will also be able to use a range of other features, such as music control, weather forecast, find my phone, as well as receive calls, texts and social media notifications One delighted shopper said: "I'm genuinely impressed with this smartwatch! It looks sleek and modern, and the bright display is easy to read even in daylight. The features are exactly what I need fitness tracking, notifications, heart rate monitoring, and more. "The orange strap adds a fun and sporty touch, and it's surprisingly comfortable to wear all day. Setup was quick and straightforward, and the battery life is better than expected. For the price, this watch offers outstanding value. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an affordable yet high-quality fitness tracker!" To buy the Jugeman Smartwatch, click HERE. "I also like the fact you can turn all notifications off so it just focuses on what it's supposed to do, tell the time and track your daily movements and fitness/activities." However, not all reviews were overwhelmingly positive. One person, who took issue with the strap and connectivity, said: "The Fitbit Versa 4 itself felt nice quality and lightweight but the strap for it is horrible, it felt so cheaply made, I replaced it with a nylon band which improved the feel but again for a premium product you shouldn't have to pay for new bands. "The versa 4 itself worked fine for about 4 days but then I started noticing issues, like it not syncing with the app, the gps would not connect at random times on the same walking routes and the touch screen would just stop working or it would turn off the option I had set to stay on." But others were delighted with their choice, with one saying: "I was deciding between the Fitbit Versa 4 and a Samsung smartwatch. Both covered everything I needed, with the Samsung offering a few extra bells and whistles. However, I kept coming back to the battery life. "With the Fitbit Versa 4, I haven't really had to worry about battery life — it lasts long enough, and it doesn't take much time to fully recharge. On the other hand, the Samsung was reported to last only around two days at best, and I knew I'd likely find it dead when I needed it or charging when I wanted to be active. "My main focus was the fitness and health features rather than the general "smart" functionalities, and after a few weeks of use, I'm glad I chose the Fitbit. It's easy to use, does all I need it to, synced smoothly with my other apps, and overall, I'm very happy with this purchase." Some shoppers kept their praise short but sweet. One person said: "Love it, I never take it off." While another added: "Great price, easy to set up. I love my watch." Get the Google Fitbit Versa 4 HERE.

One crucial point to bear in mind is that the Galaxy Watch7 contract spans over a 36 month period, so ensure this is considered before committing to the contract, as the Express reports. Grab the Samsung Galaxy Watch7 for £9 a month through Sky £319 £9/ a month Sky GET DEAL Product Description If fitness is at the forefront of shoppers' minds, there are plenty of alternatives. For those who want a more action-packed device, Argos is selling the Galaxy Watch Ultra for £399, which is Samsung's best watch. Anyone looking for Garmin deals, another popular brand particularly with fitness wearers, there's the Fenix 8 for £789.99. Depsite having a high price, this option does have the capability to track multiple different sports and even has solar charging. "I love what it can do. Connectivity, pay, display pictures, control camera, steps, swim, ECG sensors, make/take calls", said one recent shopper. However, the same reviewer did point out that the battery life was not up to par. They said: "But the downside is the battery performance-doing too much means charging every other day. "If Samsung can't make the battery last longer, at least provide another charger for when you are on the move." Another customer expressed their love for the device, but also highlighted the poor battery life. They stated: "I love my watch, but I'm a bit disappointed with the battery life it needs charging every day. The features and display are both really good. "But I'm guessing the more things you have on it, the more the battery is used. You can't use the sleep app because it has to be charged daily".
