You can snag titles like GTA V, Astro Bot, Spider-Man 2 and more. Amazon has a similar sale on with different check: from £25 @ Amazon We love Govee's smart lights and this deal makes the RGB Smart Indoor LED Lightstrip a great buy. You can use the Govee Home app to choose between over 16 million shades, sync the lights up to your music, and more. You can also control them via Alexa or Google Assistant.

Plus, you get up to 8 hours of listening time on a charge, or up to 20 hours when you use the charging case. At just £59, the best value Ring Video Doorbell got even better. The newest of Ring's doorbells has head-to-toe video and package detection. You can't replace its battery, but it's a fantastic option at this price. If your workload is strictly in office documents and your entertainment requirements are just for binge watching, this dirt cheap laptop is ideal with 4GB of RAM and a MediaTek Kompanio 520 Processor. TV sale: deals from £89 @ CurrysCurrys has smart TVs on sale for as low as £89. Keep in mind, the cheap TVs tend to be smaller, 1080p models (which are more suitable for a children's room or guest room). However, the sale also includes larger sets. These are among the cheapest TVs we've seen. Note that Amazon and Argos are holding similar check: from £99 @ Amazon | from £109 @ Argos This deal slashes the price of the Hisense A6N 4K TV. You'll get excellent picture quality with Dolby Vision and HDR10, support for 4K gaming at 60Hz and voice control thanks to Google Assistant. The Hisense U7N is fantastic way to lock down three important elements without breaking the bank: bright HDR performance, ample gaming features and an excellent display. In our Hisense U7N review, we shouted out this TV's 1,300+ nits of HDR brightness. Its Mini-LED backlighting is especially nice to have at this price point, along with its support for 4K gaming at 120Hz or check: £599 @ Amazon The S90D is one of Samsung's 2024 OLED TVs. The OLED TV features Samsung's new NQ4 AI Gen2 processor, HDR10+/HLG support, 120Hz refresh rate, four HDMI 2.1 ports, and built-in Alexa. It also offers 4K AI Upscaling to ensure all programs are crisp and sharp. On the audio front, you get Dolby Atmos and Object Tracking Sound Lite for 3D surround sound. Our Samsung S90D review said "it offers the best bang for your buck." Use code "VIS15OFF" for the full check: £850 @ Amazon Samsung's The Frame offers you chance to experience TVs unlike ever before. With its anti-reflective coating that gives it this art deco look to its Pantone validation, you can expect to forget The Frame is even a TV when it's set in art mode. But don't think you won't get ample performance in cinematic experiences, as well, with its beloved Tizen OS, which has access to every streaming service and even some cloud gaming subscriptions as well. If you can't get enough cold brew coffee and iced tea, this cold brewer is a must buy. In our Instant Cold Brewer review, we loved its fast operation and ease of use. It made delicious cold brew coffee in 20 minutes, which is excellent compared to the usual 8-12 hour brewing time required for non-mechanical cold brewers. This entry-level De'Longhi Lattissima model is a great addition to your kitchen. In our Nespresso Lattissima One review we liked its large water container and automatic milk heat and foam feature. On the downside, it can't make large beverages, but that flaw is easier to forgive with this discount. This upright corded vacuum cleaner can remove dirt and microscopic dust on all floors. Its HEPA filtration system captures allergens and bacteria, while the wand and hose enable cleaning in all those hard-to-reach spots. The Ninja Woodfire Pro XL can grill, smoke, bake and air fry in one, but this outdoor grill has a cult following for a reason. With the ability to use real smoker pellets to create that classic barbecue flavor, you won't miss your smoker one bit with this electric alternative. Our Skullcandy Dime 3 review said that these are some of the best cheap earbuds you can get right now. They deliver excellent sound quality, are great on calls and have a seriously compact design. Plus, you get up to 8 hours of listening time on a charge, or up to 20 hours when you use the charging case. Google's premium buds are truly excellent — our Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 review said they're "a must-own for every Android enthusiast." Their sleek design, useful AI features and long battery life (up to 48 hours) are paired with excellent sound and strong active noise canceling capabilities. After this discount, they're even better value. The Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds are the best earbuds in terms of active noise cancelation performance. New immersive audio technology creates a multi-dimensional soundstage with proprietary digital signal processing software. In our Bose QuietComfort Ultra review we said that you'd be hard pressed to find a better choice for blocking out the world's sounds. As we noted in our Bose QuietComfort Headphones review, these are "excellent always-on noise-cancelers with enhanced sound and battery life." They come with enhanced sound, more features, and the same celebrated noise cancelation as their QC45 predecessor. An entry-level Android tablet, the Samsung Galaxy A9 Plus has been slashed in price. It features an 11-inch display with a 90Hz refresh rate, a long-lasting 7,040mAh battery and a snappy Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 chip. You also get 5MP front and 8MP back cameras. If your workload is strictly in office documents and your entertainment requirements are just for binge watching, this dirt cheap laptop is ideal with 4GB of RAM and a MediaTek Kompanio 520 Processor. Looking for a lightweight classroom companion? The Lenovo P12 tablet is easy to toss in a backpack, and it doesn't skimp on specs. Its 12.7-inch (2944 x 1840) touchscreen display is backed by a MediaTek Dimensity 7050 CPU and 128GB of internal storage. To unleash your creativity (and productivity), Lenovo bundles their Tab Pen Plus, which is perfect for notetaking, sketching, and document editing. Armed with an Intel Core i5 CPU, 8GB LPDDR5 RAM and 512GB of storage, Asus has given this Chromebook enough horsepower for any ChromeOS workload. This is one of the cheapest ways to get all the Chromebook Plus AI features, alongside impressive game streaming features to boot. The Google Pixel 9 features a 6.3-inch 1080 x 2424 OLED display, Tensor G4 chipset, 12GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. Rear cameras include a 50MP main and 48MP ultrawide, whereas on the front there's a 10.5MP camera. In our Pixel 9 review, we said the new AI features, upgraded cameras and bigger battery make it the Pixel 9 phone to buy. The iPhone 16 Pro Max has dropped in price. In our iPhone 16 Pro Max review, we liked its larger 6.9-inch display and handy Apple Intelligence features (like Writing Tools and the new Siri.) It also has epic battery life, lasting 17 hours and 38 minutes in our testing.

Currys begins rollout of VoCoVo headsets across UK&I stores
UK-based technology products and services retailer Currys has partnered retail communications specialist VoCoVo to roll out Series 5 Pro headset technology across all its stores in the UK and Ireland. The initiative is part of Currys' investment in store safety and aims to equip every colleague with a headset by the end of May 2025. The move is a response to an industry-wide increase in shoplifting and incidents of abuse against employees, with the headsets designed to keep staff better connected and safer on the shop floor. The latest 2025 Crime Survey from the British Retail Consortium (BRC) reveals that the aggregate expense incurred by the retail sector due to crime and expenditure on preventive strategies escalated to £4.2bn in 2023/24 - an increase from £3.3bn reported in the preceding year. Of this total, theft by customers represented a significant portion, amounting to £2.2bn in losses. The UK government has enacted new legislative measures to address the escalating issue of retail crime. Following a successful trial in 20 selected stores, Currys has now initiated a full rollout of the VoCoVo headsets. Currys UK stores director Matthew Speight stated: 'Incidents of shoplifting and aggression against retail workers are continuing to rise at a completely unacceptable level. 'VoCoVo's headsets, alongside a range of other store safety measures, are allowing us to put our best foot forward in protecting colleagues and customers from dangerous situations. We're excited to be rolling out the headsets to all our stores following positive feedback from the in-store trials.' The new technology not only enhances safety but also improves the in-store experience for customers. Colleagues can communicate more effectively, ensuring that customer queries are addressed promptly. The integration of Call Points throughout the stores will enable customers to request assistance at the push of a button. These notifications will be sent directly to the headsets worn by store colleagues, ensuring that help is promptly provided. VoCoVo UK and European Union commercial growth head Olivia Robinson stated: 'Currys is one of the most recognisable UK retail brands, known for trading the best tech products. 'As a tech-first company ourselves, we share many values with Currys and are proud to announce this partnership. We have enjoyed a successful trial and look forward to continuing to support the full rollout and seeing the impact VoCoVo makes to Currys and its colleagues.' VoCoVo introduced VoCoVo Link, a wearable headset system aimed at boosting communication, efficiency and safety for smaller retail teams, especially those in convenience stores, in 2024. The lightweight headsets support discreet, instant communication among team members, enhancing teamwork, speeding up customer service and providing a more effective way to handle security issues.

Secrets of Ireland's fridges uncovered as Currys launches For The Tech You Love
More than half of Ireland's refrigerators contain leftovers that will never be eaten, while one fridge in four is home to a Tupperware container which holds contents that are a mystery even to the owner. These are just two of the revelations from a new survey into how Irish consumers use our fridges, and what their contents reveal about us. The nationwide survey was commissioned by Currys to launch its new brand ad campaign For The Tech You Love. The campaign celebrates the humble fridge and indicates the truth behind our most common kitchen appliance, that we're a nation of chaos-stackers and cheese hoarders. A massive 95 percent of us always have milk chilling on standby, while 57 percent admit clinging to 'leftovers we'll never eat'. # And nearly a quarter of us confess to owning a 'mystery' Tupperware container in which the contents are best left unidentified - while almost half of us (40 percent) keep items that are technically expired but 'still smell grand'. The national debate over what actually belongs in the fridge rages on too. Two thirds of us (67 percent) keep their ketchup cold, 61 percent refrigerate their eggs, and 32 percent chill chocolate, all of which should spark another round of fridge vs press warfare in households across the country. Meanwhile, our cleanliness could use a boost: only 10 percent clean of us clean our fridge weekly, while more than a quarter wait until something starts to smell. No surprise that the feature most people want in a future fridge is a self-cleaning mode (61 percent ). Roz Purcell topped the list of Irish celebs we trust to have the most organised fridge, while south Dublin won the unofficial crown for Ireland's fanciest fridge setups (with a smug 73 percent of the vote ). While most of us admit trying to find a system to tame the chaos. Currys' new brand platform For the Tech You Love has been designed to reposition Currys as more than a retailer by tapping into the everyday relationship people have with the technology in their lives. The new creative direction reflects Currys' ambition to reposition itself in the hearts and minds of customers – not just as a tech retailer, but as a brand that understands how personal those choices can be. From the excitement of unboxing a new device to finding a fridge that makes a statement, For the Tech You Love brings these moments to life in a way that's both personal and entertaining – without taking itself too seriously. So whether your fridge is bursting at the seams or clinging to payday leftovers, Currys has the perfect model for every home, style and food habit. Find their full range of refrigeration products at
