EE slashes £150 off the price of the latest Samsung tablet
Over the past couple of years, EE has been repositioning itself as a one-stop shop for all your tech. Best known for its mobile phone network, the company offers broadband and TV, as well as selling all the latest tech through its stores, both online and off, as well as through its app.
The EE Tech Drop. This event sees heavy discounts on a particular item for a limited time as a first-come-first-serve offering. Think of it like a lightning deal, once a month from EE. The next Tech Drop is going to slash £150 off the price of the latest Samsung tablet, the Galaxy Tab S10 FE. That will see the £499 available for £349, which is a huge discount for such a new tablet.
EE says that the deal will only be available through the EE App, both for EE customers and those who aren't customers. It will take place on 20 May 2025. The Galaxy Tab S10 FE is also available from Samsung for £499 and Amazon at £499.
This is still a premium tablet, however, and is your budget won't stretch to the discounted Tab S10 FE, then take a look at the Galaxy Tab A9, which is half price on Amazon, it's £81.71, which is the cheapest it has ever been.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE is the 'fan edition' of the Tab S10, so it made a couple of sacrifices on the spec sheet to bring the price down. Importantly, however, the S10 FE is a 10.9-inch tablet, so it's the most compact of the family, making it more affordable and ideal for travel, as you can easily slip it into your bag.

Product Description
It keeps the premium aluminium build and is only 6mm thick. I've been testing the Galaxy Tab S10 FE and I've found it to be a really premium experience, great for watching movies, but the LCD display isn't as good as the OLED display you get on the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra.
There's a single camera on the back instead of the dual camera that Samsung's top tablets get, but that doesn't bother me, because I use my phone for photos rather than the tablet. There's a front-facing camera which is important for making video calls.
Although it does have slightly lower power, using the Exynos 1580 processor, rather than the flagship-grade processor in the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra. It has an IP68 rating, so if you knock over your drink and flood your tablet then it will be just fine, while the battery will last for 20 hours – enough to keep you in movies when frying from the UK to Australia.

Save £122 on Shark carpet cleaner that 'deep cleans better than professionals'
"Incredible bit of kit, it's transformed the carpet, lifting out dirt the professional grade vacuum couldn't get out." Keeping your home tidy can feel like a thankless task at times. You've only just run the hoover round the place and it's already getting mucky again. Every once in a while, it's good to give your home a proper deep clean, really rolling up your sleeves and getting into those areas you've been neglecting. For many people, paying someone to come in and do it for them just isn't an option. There is, however, a product that can get your carpets looking brand new without having to repeatedly fork out for cleaners. And shoppers have been so impressed with it they say it is far better than turning to professionals. The product in question is the Shark CarpetXpert HairPro Pet Carpet Cleaner. Shark is one of the big name brands in household cleaning, with the cordless vacuums among the most popular cleaning tools on the market. However, with the big name often comes the big price point. In this instance, though, the Shark CarpetXpert is enjoying a discount of more than £120 on Amazon. Normally retailing at a hefty £349.99, you can currently snap one up for £227.70 - a 35 per cent discount. This model comes with five tools to make sure every section of the carpet gets the deep clean it deserves. Shark CarpetXpert HairPro Pet Carpet Cleaner Product Description According to Shark, the CarpetXpert has been built for pet homes; eliminating cat and dog mess and odours, including urine. Meanwhile, its anti-clogging and anti-tangle technology sends heir straight to the dirty water tank. The carpet cleaner's dual-activated solution gives 20 times more stain-removing power vs Shark's Deep Clean Pet Formula and its high-pressure spray and powerful suction gives deeper cleaning than a regular vacuum. Elsewhere, the Bissell ProHeat 2x Revolution Pet Pro Carpet Cleaner, which boasts a 4.8 rating, is £299.99. Or for those on a bit more of a budget, the Vax Compact Power Upright Carpet Cleaner is £90 at Argos. However, the Shark CarpetXpert has attracted rave reviews on Amazon, where it boasts a 4.6-star rating and is a designated Amazon's Choice product. Shoppers hailed it for "transforming" their floors. One satisfied customer said: "I am amazed by this machine. I recently had all carpets professionally deep cleaned but they didn't come up anywhere as good as the results obtained from this Shark. "I wasn't expecting to see such great results from a domestic appliance! The amount of dirt removed is incredible. I don't allow outdoor shoes in carpeted areas so the dirt was in existence prior to professional clean. Very impressive! Another five-star reviewer wrote: "Outstanding bit of kit. I had my carpet cleaned professionally, they screwed up, came back to try and fix the problem, they couldn't fix it so I bought this. And wow. "Incredible bit of kit, it's transformed the carpet, lifting out dirt the professional grade vacuum couldn't get out. Incredible. I'm looking at other Shark products to replace our existing ones now, new vacuum cleaner, new hairdryer, new fans. This has completely outperformed our Vax in every way, don't look anywhere else!" However, they did say that the Shark was "pretty heavy", noting that as one of it's downsides. And a three-star reviewer agreed, saying: "I found it powerful but too bulky and heavy." They added: "Also, I accidentally went over the wire and the machine basically munched off the rubber coating and exposed the bare wires. I know technically my clumsiness but still I wouldn't expect the rubber to break so easily." But someone else was left stunned at just how much muck the Shark lifted from their floors. They said: "I recently used the Shark CarpetXpert Deep Clean Carpet Cleaner with Built-In StainStriker Spot Cleaner, and it has truly transformed the way I clean my carpets. Homewares deal of the week Looking to beat the heat as temperatures continue to rise? Then look no further than Dunelm's White Rechargeable USB Desk Fan that has an almost perfect five star rating for its small, yet mighty, design that means it works "even on the lowest setting." Easy to connect via a USB cable that can be connected to laptops and computers, this desk fan is perfect for those who find themselves working from home on these sweaty, humid summer days. However, it doesn't need to remain plugged-in, as the rechargeable element and compact six-inch design means it can be taken anywhere, even placed on a bedside table overnight on summer nights thanks to its "quiet" operation. It's finished with four speed settings to choose from and an adjustable angle that can help direct the cool breeze where it is needed, unlike other models that can sometimes be stuck in one place. As for Dunelm's own mini desk fan, it has received an impressive 4.8 rating from impressed shoppers who say that, despite its size, it is "surprisingly powerful" and "a literal life-saver" during this kind of weather. One five-star review read: "Fantastic fan, surprisingly powerful, quiet, lasts for quite a long time when charged, very hard to find a decent small rechargeable fan but this is it, will be buying more!" Beat the heat with Dunelm's White Rechargeable USB Desk Fan that costs just £25. "After using it on my landing and bedroom, I was shocked to discover just how dirty they were.

Amazon cuts price on TSA-approved power bank from £130 to £30 – it's MagSafe and perfect for summer hols
APPLE fans, I've just come across a deal you'll want eyes on. Amazon have slashed the Matast MagSafe Power Bank by a huge 77%, down from £130 to just £30. Matast Magnetic Power Bank, £129.99 £29.99 If you need a reliable power boost on the go, the Matast Magnetic Power Bank is a solid pick without the hefty price tag. It's climbing Amazon's list of best-selling portable chargers, and it's easy to see why. It's designed for MagSafe-compatiple iPhone's from the 12 right up to the latest iPhone 16. It uses a strong magnetic grip to snap it firmly in place and keeps it there, even if you're on the move. It's stats do the talking though, supporting wireless fast charging up to 15W, so you can power your iPhone 15 Pro from zero to 45% in just 35 minutes. Plus, it's got a USB-C output port for quick wired charging of all sorts of devices, so you can have up to two on the go at once. And while it's built for Apple devices, those extra ports make it just as useful for charging other gear, too. With a hefty 10,000mAh battery capacity, it can charge your iPhone 16 Pro about 1.8 times over. So, no more worrying about your phone dying mid-day or mid-journey. And because it stays under the TSA's 27,000mAh limit, it's safe to bring on flights. Just pack it in your hand luggage for convenient top-ups during your summer hols. It's a handy way to avoid low-battery panic, especially if you're wrangling kids and want to keep screens alive for the journey. Unlike many cheaper options, the Matast also includes a digital LED display showing your remaining battery, so you're never caught off guard. And it's not just me who's impressed, customers rave about it, with an average 4.5-star rating. One happy reviewer called it 'the only power bank you'll need,' praising the build quality and handy magnetic grip. Another loved how it stays attached securely, saying, 'I can snap onto the back of my phone and still use it while moving around.' We've spotted a few great portable charger deals doing the rounds on Amazon recently. Just last week, the TRKOY Magsafe Power Bank dropped from £160 to just £20 on Amazon. And the Aobbow MagSafe charger had a massive £113 knocked off its price earlier this month too. best power banks UK.

Save 30% on ‘compact and slim' wireless phone power bank a must-have for travelling
There's nothing more frustrating when out and about than your iPhone running out of battery with nowhere to charge it – but this nifty product is one of the best solutions we've seen Phone-charging power banks are no new thing – and if you're a regular traveller or commuter, you're probably very familiar with them – but this is one of the best ones we've seen for both practicality and looks. Power banks are usually fairly chunky, cumbersome items that require plugging into your phone with a wire; not always convenient when you're short on space, or if you've misplaced the cable. This nifty Amazon device, however, is drawing praise not just for how slim and light it is, but also because it doesn't use wires – instead it simply attaches to the back of your phone magnetically. The LISEN for Magsafe Power Bank Slim usually costs £29.99 but currently has 30% off on Amazon if you're a Prime member, taking it down to £20.89 (if you're not yet an Amazon Prime member and want to sign up with a 30-day free trial, here's the link you need). The LISEN power bank is just 0.3 inches thick – smaller and thinner than your actually phone – and clicks easily onto the back of iPhones (models 12 and above) to then charge your phone by 60% in an hour; it'll even fit in your pocket when attached. "Absolutely brilliant, light weight, easy to use, battery life is great, magnet is really strong, fabulous value for money, would definitely recommend," one Amazon shopper wrote. "Great for keeping my phone charged all day," another person agreed. " Great design and quality. Thinner than I had expected. The magnet it strong enough to hold it in place so very functional and recharges very quickly. Highly recommend this." "The LISEN MagSafe power bank has quickly become one of my everyday essentials," wrote a third person. "It's incredibly slim—just 0.3 inches—so it fits effortlessly into my pocket or bag without adding any bulk. Perfect for when I'm on the move or just want to travel light. What impressed me the most is how fast it charges. It boosted my iPhone to 60% in under an hour, and I didn't need to fiddle with cables—just snap it on and go. The magnetic connection is strong and stable, so it stays securely in place even while I'm using my phone." One niggle some customers found, however, was that in some cases this power bank causes the phone to heat up quite a bit when charger ("taking a star away as I can't use the phone while it's on much as it gets very hot," one comment reads. The brand has addressed this by saying that if this happens, move the phone to a cooler spot, or give it a break from charger for a few minutes. Another travel essential I tried out recently and now wouldn't be without are packing cubes, specifically these ones from Briggs & Riley, which far exceed the cheap ones I had previously owned and will last me a lifetime. You can read my full review of them on a recent holiday here. When commuting, I also always take this Antler backpack, which even fits enough in for an overnight stay. It's currently included in Antler's big summer sale, down from £140 to £112.
