Amazon shoppers rush to buy ‘functional and stylish' £200 smartwatch – and it's now just £40

BUY FROM AMAZON
Amazon is packed with hidden gems from lesser-known tech brands that often deliver great quality at bargain prices.
This particular model caught my attention, not just because of the big price drop, but because it's genuinely a good-looking piece of kit.
The Soudorv Y10 Smartwatch boasts a large screen, hundreds of sports modes, and an impressive list of features, making it a steal for under £40.
Granted, you might not recognise the brand 'Soudorv,' I didn't either, but don't let that put you off.
Its spec sheet is packed with impressive features that, although I haven't had the chance to test myself, are a steal for the price.
For starters, it comes with Bluetooth 5.4 and even features a built-in voice assistant.
That means you can make and receive calls, get notifications from WhatsApp and Instagram, and control music or tasks hands-free.
There are also handy apps available for smartwatches that can help you develop healthier habits, including one designed to help users quit smoking.
That's a genuinely useful feature for anyone looking to make positive lifestyle changes.
The battery life goes the distance too, lasting up to 20 days on a single charge, which can stretch to 60 days on standby, so you won't find yourself constantly searching for a charger.
Some smartwatch screens can be fiddly, but the 1.43-inch AMOLED display here is an ideal size for functionality, and it's fully customisable.
There are over 250 watch faces to choose from, or the option to use your own photos via the FitCloudPro app, so you can make this your own.
Most users invest in this tech for the health tracking features to stay on top of their fitness.
The Soudorv Y10 does all the basics you want in a smartwatch, including tracking steps, heart rate, blood oxygen levels, sleep, and even menstrual cycles.
The heart rate monitor, in particular, can be a lifesaver, helping you spot early warning signs of heart disease.
Add to that over 130 sports modes, and it's a fantastic companion for tracking your activities in real time.
I might not have given this a test run, but with a perfect 5-star rating from over 170 happy customers, it's clear the quality speaks for itself.
One reviewer described it as 'functional and stylish,' saying, 'It has a sleek, masculine look that feels great on the wrist.
'The build quality is solid, and the display is bright and easy to use. Battery life is decent, setup is easy, and the display is great.'
Another said, 'It looks great, feels solid, and does everything I need, calls, heart rate, sleep tracking, all spot on. The battery life is way better than I expected, too. Worth it for the price.'
A third customer praised the touchscreen, noting, 'Various functions, but the important ones are there and accurate. Easy to use as the touchscreen is very responsive, and scrolling is fast.'
For £39.99, this smartwatch feels like an absolute no-brainer.
If you're after a functional bit of tech that doesn't look bad on either, this deal is definitely worth grabbing while it's still available.
Do keep in mind, though, this is badged as a limited-time deal, so there's no telling how long it'll stick around at this price.
For those of you in the market for a new phone, I've spotted an offer you won't want to miss.
You can nab a free tech bundle worth nearly £410 when you pick up the Honor 400 Pro, including a smartwatch, wireless speaker, and earbuds.

ANNE ASHWORTH reveals the benefits of investing in UK firms
To date, the undisputed leaders of the artificial intelligence industrial revolution have been US tech titans like the mighty Microsoft and Nvidia. But also in contention are a group of FTSE 100 firms that are deploying AI to make the maximum use of data for the benefit of grateful customers. These British 'tech-enabled' names include Auto Trader, the £7.2billion online car marketplace, and Experian the £49.9billion credit information group. Also on the British 'tech-enabled' list is the property portal Rightmove on whose app and website the nation spends close to 17billion minutes every year. It makes sense to wager on the Magnificent Seven of tech. But there is also a strong argument for diversifying into the British names making strides in AI. This week, the FTSE 100 has reached a record high. The index could scale further heights, if the recognition grows that Britain is not being left behind in the AI revolution. If you want to take advantage of this disruption, here are some of the shares to back. AUTO TRADER There are 81m visits every month to the Auto Trader website, the largest in the market thanks to its compendious data on every aspect of a new or second-hand vehicle. The company has been dubbed the 'king of the virtual forecourt'. In 2024, the company introduced CoDriver, a range of AI-powered products that make searching easier and adverts look more attractive. Ben Derber, analyst at Rathbones Investment Management, says CoDriver is helping retailers get their adverts live more quickly, leading to consistently high levels of engagement from customers. Auto Trader is seen as a quality company, with its good cash flow and an impressive ROCE (return on capital employed); this is a measure of how a business uses its capital to produce profits. These factors suggest that it is the kind of business that belongs in your portfolio for the long-term. The share price is 835.8p. Analysts have set a target price of 853p, with the most optimistic forecasting a rise to 1040p. But, in the near future, the shares may pause for breath because Auto Trader's ARPR – average revenue per retailer – is disappointing at present. A shortage of used cars means that they are selling faster than before. EXPERIAN Experian moved beyond being just a credit reference agency to become a business that empowers lenders in the UK, Europe, US, Latin America, India and Singapore to make better decisions. Matt Britzman of Hargreaves Lansdown says: 'Experian is a global information services company specialising in data analytics, credit reporting, and identity verification.' But borrowers also want a good deal and Experian is exploiting this opportunity. Britzman adds: 'With financial literacy becoming more widespread, Experian is well-positioned to capitalise, offering tools that empower consumers to manage their credit and financial health more effectively.' As Derber points out, Experian has been using AI for more than a decade, and is now working with generative AI to offer digital assistant services to consumers and banks and finance firms. Nine of the 17 analysts that follow Experian rate the shares – which stand at 4056p – a 'buy'. Recently, Bank of America has raised its target price to 4900p, while Goldman Sachs is even more enthusiastic, setting a target of 5550p. LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE The London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) has hit the headlines this month over a proposed plan to provide 24-hour trading – a result of pressure from small investors who want to buy and sell stocks at all hours, apparently. But the operation of the London bourse, although vital to the UK economy, is a minor activity for LSEG when compared with the selling of financial data to banks, brokers and others. The supply of this information will be vastly increased thanks to a ten-year partnership with Microsoft in which generative AI is playing a crucial role. Matthew Page, manager of the Guinness Global Innovators Fund says that the link with Microsoft gives LSEG 'serious competitive advantage' since it can embed cutting-edge generative AI into its products. Microsoft has a 4 per cent stake in LSEG. This vote of confidence may be one of the reasons why analysts rate the shares a 'buy'. The price is 10,090p, with the most optimistic brokers targeting 12,600p. RELX Until a decade ago Relx (pronounced Rel-ex) was known as Reed Elsevier. The change of name reflected the move from publishing into analytics, for which demand continues to grow – especially when that data is amplified by AI. Relx is a vital source for scientific researchers suffering from information overload. But there is a particular clamour, too, for the legal research tool Lexis+. AI is also accelerating growth at Relx's risk division. This arm of the £70.99billion business caters for companies that want to prevent digital fraud. But Relx is not just about analytics, it is one of the world's top events organisers, running exhibitions and shows in 25 countries. Analysts are positive about Relx's prospects, rating the shares a 'buy' with an average target price of 4428p, against the current 3937p. JP Morgan is even more sanguine about Relx's future, having raised its target price from 4630p to 4890p earlier this month. RIGHTMOVE The British are already obsessed with property. But, as Derber explains, Rightmove is deepening the connection through AI, introducing internal improvements in the speed of the introduction of new features, and supplying such extras as personalised property recommendations. He expects that the £6.1billion company, founded in 2020, will unveil further ways to ensure that we spend even more of our lives on Rightmove. The most popular moment to visit the website or app is 8.59am on Monday morning, as people start work but seek consolation in pictures of desirable residences. Rightmove shares have risen by 21 per cent this year to 780.4p, spurred by hopes that an easing of interest rates will encourage house hunters. Analysts rate shares a 'hold' since future growth is already priced into the stock. But Duncan Green, manager of the Schroder UK Multi-Cap Income Fund, which owns a slice of Rightmove, makes the case for the shares. He considers the company to deliver 'a rare level of efficiency and profitability', while also offering an income through dividends and share buybacks. If AI is making you and your friends look at Rightmove even more than before, consider taking a chance on the shares on the basis that others will be doing the same.

Amazon shoppers ‘beyond impressed' as ‘crystal-clear' portable projector gets slashed from £130 to £45
KEEN to bring the big-screen experience home this summer? Head to Amazon. The online retailer has knocked down the price of a budget-friendly, portable projector by 65% – and it's got shoppers raving. Do enough digging through Amazon's deals pages, and you'll find sky-high savings on all sorts of tech, from portable power banks to over-ear headphones. This portable home projector is from a brand we in the Shopping team haven't come across before, and haven't tested ourselves. But it's racked up over 250 five-star reviews on Amazon, with buyers buzzing about its auto-focus and keystone adjustment features, as well as its cracking picture quality. This isn't some top-of-the-range projector that'll blow your socks off with all the bells and whistles - you'll have to spend much more on premium devices that offer 4K picture quality. But if you're after something to watch the odd film, catch the football, or a spot of gaming, it's a solid choice that leaves minimal impact on your wallet. The iWIMIUS Portable Projector is packed with a range of features that are pretty eye-catching, for a device that now costs less than £50. Its auto-focus and keystone correction are clever bits of tech that sort the image out for you, so you don't need to faff about adjusting it manually. It even has smart features to line the picture up perfectly with your screen and dodge obstacles like plug sockets or furniture that might get in the way. The sound's no slouch either - it's got built-in 20W speakers with Dolby Digital support, delivering audio that one customer has described as "clear, balanced, and surprisingly deep.' You can also use its two-way Bluetooth to turn the projector into a standalone speaker or hook it up to soundbars and other devices using HDMI ARC for that proper cinema surround sound. As for the picture, it looks pretty impressive for the price. It gives you Full HD 1080p resolution and can handle 4K content too, with an 800 ANSI brightness that keeps colours vivid and details sharp. Setting it up at home should be a doddle too. The adjustable base lets you tilt it up to 15°, so you can stick it on a coffee table or shelf and still get the right angle. Plus, it's small and smart-looking, so it won't stick out like a sore thumb in your living room or bedroom. It doesn't come with apps like Netflix or Disney+, but you can plug in a TV Stick or similar device to stream your favourite shows and films. Shoppers are loving it, with an overwhelming majority of reviews rating it at five stars. 'An excellent projector for those on a budget!" wrote one customer. "I have to say I wasn't sure what to expect when I ordered this little beauty but I am beyond impressed!' Another said, 'The picture is a lot better than I expected, really sharp and great vibrant colour. "Same for the sound – surprisingly full and loud, again with options to select different sound presets or adjust manually.' A third wrote: 'This projector delivers an amazing home theatre experience with sharp visuals, vibrant colours, and excellent performance. Crystal-clear picture quality.' Amazon's calling this a limited-time deal, so it's unlikely to stay this cheap for long.

Lamborghini's First EV Could Become A Hybrid Instead
Lanzador First Delayed, Now Deviating Revealed in 2023 as a concept, the Lamborghini Lanzador was meant to be Sant'Agata's first all-electric production car, and at the time, the automaker intended for it to enter production in 2028. Not long ago, that timeline was extended by a year, and now it seems that Lamborghini may not even launch an EV, if recent comments by CEO Stephan Winkelmann are anything to go by. 'We took two decisions so far based on the fact that the acceptance curve of the electric cars worldwide and globally, not only in our type of segment, is flattening, and this is even more true for our type [of cars],' said Winkelmann, speaking with Australia's CarExpert. 'The first decision is that Urus replacement would be, again, a plug-in hybrid, and that we postpone the launch of the fourth [model].' Winkelmann went on to say that Lamborghini has to decide which way to go for the Lanzador soon, saying that 'it's possible' the smaller-than-Urus concept will also become a PHEV. Lamborghini Is Keeping Its Options Open For a company specializing in small-volume vehicles, introducing an all-electric vehicle to an unreceptive market could be a huge waste of time, energy, money, and brand value. As he said when the Lanzador was first unveiled, Winkelmann reiterated that Lamborghini does not need to be among the first to sell an EV, 'but we need to be there when the people are ready to buy these things,' he said, adding that 'this is paramount for the success of a company like ours.' Similar sentiments were uttered by Bugatti-Rimac CEO, Mate Rimac, who was adamant the former brand needed a big engine in its Chiron successor when he took over and told Autocar last year that the latter brand may not make another electric hypercar because of weak demand. Wealthy buyers simply aren't that interested in EVs, say CEOs, but they will be, and introducing the right sort of EV for this market at the right time will be critical to long-term success. Combustion To Remain As Long As Possible Source: Lamborghini Mr. Winkelmann commented on the promise of sustainable fuels that could keep the internal combustion engine feasible for many years to come, calling this area of innovation 'a huge opportunity,' adding that Lamborghini will retain combustion in 'the two supercars' – Temerario and Revuelto – as long as possible. As other automakers have noted, this is about more than just performance, with the powertrain also affecting 'emotion' and residual values. Lamborghini is happy to keep delaying its all-electric vehicle, perhaps indefinitely, until it sees market research that suggests such a thing would sell in reasonably profitable numbers, reflecting an industry-wide sentiment. Bentley's first EV was recently delayed, and Ferrari is slowing its entries to the segment too, with both of them adding more hybrid options to their lineups. Porsche didn't wait with the Macan Electric, but it is now rumored to be considering reviving the combustion-powered variant. About the Author Sebastian Cenizo View Profile
