The Amazon Big Spring Sale is now live, with savings available on all sorts of tech. While there are great deals on TVs and gaming, it’s Amazon’s own TV Fire Stick that has caught our eye. Available with 51% slashed off its usual price, the Fire TV Stick HD is a fantastic item to grab while it’s on sale.
A streaming device is the best way to stream content on your TV screen. Although a smart TV will have access to apps for Netflix, Hulu, Disney+ and more, using this Fire Stick will let you view the content in better quality. A TV needs to account for multiple functions, so its power for streaming is limited, whereas the Amazon Fire Stick HD is designed purely for that purpose. It will run smoother and likely load faster. Plus, if you have an old TV and not a smart model, this streaming device will let you access all the movies and shows you could want.

With the Alexa voice controls, you don’t need to worry about getting lost in menus and can instead go right where you want. We’ve all been stuck in menus within menus, so we appreciate an easier option. Setting the device up is also simple, as it only needs to be plugged into an available HDMI slot and powered to get started.
Another nice aspect of the Fire TV Stick HD is its size. This is a very small device, and it’s compact enough to bring with you when travelling. So long as you can connect to a HDMI port and Wi-Fi, you can use this with any TV screen, meaning you never have to be without access to the latest episodes of a show or bored in a hotel room at night.
Although we’re highlighting the HD Fire Stick, other Amazon streaming devices are also on sale.

When is the Amazon Big Spring Sale?
The Amazon Big Spring Sale started on March 25, kicking off deals on all sorts of tech products and beyond.
When does the Amazon Big Spring Sale end?
The Big Spring Sale is set to wrap up at the end of the month, March 31. We expect some deals will last for a while afterwards, but the best savings are to be had during the main sale event. It’s unlikely that there will be another major Amazon sale of this level until summer, so now is the best time to buy.

How to find the best Spring Sale TV deals
We’ve got a few tips for making the most of the Big Spring Sale:
Daily Deals: Amazon has a section for daily deals, highlighting a set of eye-catching discounts and savings. It’s not all tech, but still worth checking.
Wish List: You can add products that interest you to your wish list. This way, you get easy access to them throughout the sale and can check when a saving goes up for one.
Price Trackers: Sites such as CamelCamelCamel and Keepa help you check how good a deal actually is by tracking the price history of an item. Sometimes a product’s price shoots up just before a sale event, so this lets you ensure you get a genuine saving.
What’s the difference between Amazon Spring Sale and Amazon Prime Day?
Whereas Prime Day keeps its best savings for Prime members, the deals in the Big Spring Sale are available for all Amazon customers. Amazon Prime members still get the advantage of faster shipping.
