Alternatively, if home security is on your dad's mind, he'll likely appreciate this battery-powered Ring Stick Up Cam outdoor security camera system, which includes two wireless HD cameras with motion detection. Dad can even get a live view of his home's exterior via the Ring app and take advantage of two-way talk functionality. Now discounted by a massive 40%, bringing the 2-pack down from AU$329 to AU$199, saving you AU$130.

Or maybe you simply want to make dad's life a little easier. If that's the case, an Echo smart speaker should do the trick, giving dad access to Alexa, as well as voice-activated entertainment from the likes of Amazon Music, Spotify and more. Amazon's 5th-gen Echo Dot is now AU$99 AU$74, while the larger Echo (4th-gen), which offers premium sound, is now only AU$169 AU$99.

Give dad's home a smart upgrade for cheap with the Echo Dot (5th-gen) smart speaker. Along with Alexa functionality, dad can simply use his voice to request his favourite tunes from services like Amazon Music, Spotify and more. 

Want a more powerful speaker? Amazon's Echo (4th-gen) offers premium sound, meaning you get room-filling audio with plenty of rich bass. Was AU$169, now only AU$99.

Voice control is cool, but if your dad is a bit more hands-on, he might appreciate the Echo Show 5 (3rd-gen), which offers a small 5-inch touch display along with all the usual Alexa voice control features. It makes for an especially great alarm clock. Right now, you can pick one up for only AU$169 AU$139, making it a terrific gift idea.

The best smallest smart display is now bundled with a free smart bulb. We've found that the Echo Show 5 makes for a great bedside companion and also works great on a desk, so you can see and control all your smart home devices from one central hub.

Best of all, the Amazon products listed above are available with free expedited delivery, which means you should get them in time for Father's Day if you don't dawdle — and at no extra cost!
