Samsung and Apple fans snap up MacBooks and tablets from £5 a month

Tech lovers can spread the cost of the newest MacBook Air and Samsung's best tablet on the market on Sky
For shoppers who want some of the latest tech but want to spread the cost, there are ways to ensure they stay up-to-date with the latest MacBook Air, Galaxy Tabs, and other devices without paying full price at once.
We have been covering many Sky deals that allow shoppers to spread the cost, including some great deals that offer huge amounts of cashback. Prices start from £22 a month and drop to as low as £5 a month for certain tablets, making them perfect if paying for devices outright seems slightly out of reach.
We've listed all the products Sky is offering so shoppers can be more informed about which products they can get. One thing to consider is that Sky contracts do have a large 36 to 48-month contract length, so make sure buyers consider that before they purchase.
Here's a quick rundown of all the tech you can grab, by splitting the price into monthly payments.
Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+
Sky launched its 'lowest price ever' on the Galaxy Tab A9+ plan. The device costs less than £200 to buy outright at retailers like Amazon, but not everyone will want to pay that much upfront.
Amazon currently has it on sale for £160, but Sky's plan offers a decent alternative for splitting the cost into what feels like more affordable payments each month. The 11-inch screen tablet is being dished out on Sky for £5 a month, thanks to a new deal by the TV and broadband provider.
There are alternatives to consider, however. Shoppers could spend a bit more on the Samsung Galaxy S9 FE for £449, complete with a free S Pen. Alternatively, for £17 a month, Apple fans can get the 11-inch iPad Air device with the new M3 chip.
Shoppers have fallen in love with the tablet, with stellar reviews on Amazon and other retailers.
One shopper said: "I bought this as a companion for my Pixel phone, mostly for watching movies at home while the kids monopolise the TV. I have noticed that while at home, I'm now doing most things on it as when connected to my phone it sends texts (WhatsApp and normal texts) and makes WhatsApp calls.
But one shopper added: "I was not overly impressed with the display, and some video is not very 'bright', but overall the A9 is ok, and it is a Samsung, so I know the build is good quality."
Apple MacBook Air with M4 chip
Sky is offering the device at £22 per month. This 48-month contract includes the MacBook Air with Apple's fastest and latest chip and a storage capacity of 256 GB.
It comes with the latest M4 chip promises smooth performance for all your needs, boasting up to 18 hours of battery life and built-in Apple Intelligence to help users accomplish tasks effortlessly. Customers have a choice of four stunning colours, including Sky Blue, Midnight and Silver.
Shoppers want to hunt around for other deals, there are plenty of things to choose from. Argos currently has a special offer on this Acer Aspire i5 laptop for £549 for Windows fans. Meanwhile, Apple users can get a refurbished M2 MacBook Air from BackMarket for £731.
Tech experts at the Daily Express reviewed the M4 MacBook Air earlier in March, and to say they were impressed would be an understatement- they awarded it a full five stars.
However, tech editor David Snelling noted: "Yes, it's a bit of a shame that you only get two USB-C ports on one side of the device. Although it starts from a cheaper £999, it can get expensive if you start adding extras."
Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra
Sky is allowing shoppers who don't want to spend more than £1,000 at once on the newest Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra to spread the cost down to £30 a month, with £300 cashback to be claimed as well.
Samsung has launched its Shine Bright campaign, which means shoppers who buy certain products can also get a big chunk of cash in their accounts. After buying certain products, Samsung fans just have to go here and claim their £300 cashback.
If this Sky deal seems tempting, shoppers can buy the tablet here, then go to Samsung's promotional page here and log a claim. Although the claim window closes on June 24.
Samsung is also offering £100 cashback on the Galaxy Watch Ultra, meaning this Amazon purchase will cost £399. Samsung is also handing out £200 cashback on the Galaxy S25 Ultra phone f rom Samsung here, including £200 trade-in credit on old phones.
The team at the Daily Express reviewed the Samsung Galaxy S10 Ultra model right here and sung its praises. As David Snelling said: "Is the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra a brilliant tablet? 100% yes!
But he did note: "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."

Dunelm cuts 30% off 'comfortable' £55 sun lounger in flash sale

Dunelm cuts 30% off 'comfortable' £55 sun lounger in flash sale The Amsterdam Charcoal Lounger is, according to shoppers "perfect for relaxing in the garden" And relax... and save money too (Image: Dunelm ) Dunelm has slashed the price of a "very comfortable" sun lounger in its latest sale, offering the Amsterdam Charcoal Lounger at a reduced price of £55.30, down from its usual £79, but only until midnight on Sunday, June 22 according to the company's website. The grey lounger boasts 'breathable' mesh fabric and comes with a detachable pillow. The retailer's website suggests it's perfect for various outdoor activities, but customers particularly praise it as "perfect for relaxing in the garden". For those looking for a more budget-friendly option, Dunelm also offers the Helsinki Lounger at £35, available in four colours. It has a 4.5-star rating, slightly lower than the Amsterdam Lounger's 4.7 stars. In comparison, Argos is selling the new Habitat Cali Metal Sun Lounger in orange for £45, which has received exclusively 5-star reviews to date.

A satisfied customer named Andy comments: "Very comfortable reclining lounger. Well constructed all weather covering is perfect for relaxing in garden Tempted to buy a second one, good value." One satisfied customer says: "Very, very comfortable recliner. This is so comfortable! I bought one of these and the Helsinki, cheaper ones, to compare. The Helsinki is comfortable and good value but this is next level! The padding is very comfortable and it's slightly longer and wider, I'm 5'8" and this is better for me. It folds up easily and is light and easy to store. The locking mechanism allows you to recline (Image: Dunelm ) Buyers will need to keep it out of the rain as the cushion doesn't come off to wash or dry, and one person's feedback added a comment on the locking facility on the lounger, saying: "Tilts back easily but as others have said the locking mechanism doesn't lock, it's no problem if you are on a level surface but if you are on a slight downhill you'll slowly tilt upright!" One purchaser was not worried though, saying, "I've just bought another so we don't fight over this one. It's more than double the price of the Helsinki (when being sold at full price) and you can leave that one out to get wet but I think it's worth it for the comfort." The head rest is a bonus for comfortable sitting but cannot be detached (Image: Dunelm ) Article continues below Another buyer gave the Amsterdam sun lounger four stars, noting one area for improvement: "Fantastic lounger very comfortable and stylish. Love that the armrests are thicker than my last loungers, a lot more comfy and roomy. Relaxing in these is lovely and the material keeps you cool. I dropped my rating by one star due to the fact that these don't recline back enough for my liking, just a few inches more would make them perfect." Alternatively, customers can purchase the Argos Home Folding Metal Zero Gravity Sun Lounger in grey similar to Dunelm's Amsterdam chair is priced £45, and also in a choice of teal or blue too, if bringing a pop of colour to the garden or balcony is a priority. The yellow version is currently reduced to £30.15, find out more here.

Grocery watchdog investigates Amazon over late payment to suppliers

The Groceries Code Adjudicator (GCA) said it is looking at whether the US-based online retail giant breached rules over payments. The regulator said this will particularly look at delays in paying its suppliers, deductions in commercial negotiations with suppliers and how it manages supplier concerns over these deductions. It comes almost a year after the GCA told Amazon it must take 'swift and comprehensive action' to improve its compliance with industry rules designed to protect suppliers. The GCA oversees Britain's 14 largest grocery retailers – including Tesco, Sainsbury's and Marks & Spencer – to make sure they treat suppliers fairly. It restricts firms from making changes to supply contracts at short notice and also requires retailers to give an appropriate period of notice if they no longer want to use a supplier, and provide reasons for ending the contract. Rules also prohibit late delays in payments from retailers to their suppliers. Adjudicator Mark White said: 'Delays in payment can significantly harm suppliers. 'The alleged delays could expose Amazon suppliers to excessive risk and unexpected costs, potentially affecting their ability to invest and innovate. 'I decided to launch this targeted investigation based on the range of evidence I have seen from multiple sources.' He called on suppliers and to provide evidence about their experiences dealing with Amazon. The GCA added that its has received information about 'other issues at Amazon', but provided no further detail about this. An Amazon spokesman said: 'Amazon takes the Groceries Supply Code of Practice incredibly seriously and we will co-operate fully with the adjudicator as he carries out his investigation. 'While we are disappointed with this decision, we welcome the opportunity to further demonstrate our ongoing compliance with this particular section of the code. 'We have already made significant improvements to our grocery supplier experience, including to payment practices, with supplier contacts on this reducing falling year-on-year. 'We will continue to listen and work with our grocery suppliers as we roll out further changes.'
