Amazon's Fire TV Stick HD Hits 48% Off in Rare Pre-Order Discount

Amazon has launched a rare pre-order discount on its new Fire TV Stick HD. The streaming device, which was released in mid-April, is now available for $17.99 when customers use the code SAVEHD at checkout. This represents a savings of 48% off the list price of $34.99.

The sale marks an unusually swift reduction in price for a new tech release. The Fire TV Stick HD boasts several upgrades over its predecessor, including a 30% slimmer profile and no need for a wall adapter thanks to its USB-C to USB-A cable. Amazon also claims the device is 30% faster, making it easier to navigate apps and shows.

However, not all customers may be able to take advantage of this deal. The coupon code SAVEHD 'might not work for everyone,' according to Mashable's deals team.
