Amazon fall Prime Day home tech deals
Control your lights from anywhere with this smart light switch. Using the app or an Amazon Alexa- or Google Assistant-enabled device, you can set schedules, monitor your light status and switch the lights on and off with your voice.
If you don’t want to go through the process of installing a new light switch, these light bulbs simplify the process of turning any lamp or fixture in your home into a smart device. The bulbs feature more than 16 million colors, so you can set them to a cool white or warm orange-y hue.
“One of the biggest perks of this light bulb is that it can be popped into any old lamp — literally. I put mine in a lamp that was passed down to me by my grandmother,” video producer Dani Mussacchio previously shared about these light bulbs. “Once my light bulb was in place, all I had to do was download the Kasa app on my phone and follow the instructions to connect the bulb to my Wi-Fi. And just like that, my vintage lamp was transformed into a smart lamp in under three minutes.”
If your Wi-Fi signal just isn’t cutting it anymore, you can boost your coverage with this handy device. According to the brand, it can help eliminate dead zones and boost speed for up to 32 devices at a time.
This indoor camera is great for keeping track of everything that’s happening in your home. It features four times enhanced zoom, so you can see small details, like whether you left the stove on or if your dog ate her food.
You can also ensure the outside of your house is covered with this multi-camera system. You’ll get three Blink Outdoor 4 Cameras and a video doorbell, all of which are designed to be weather-resistant and long-lasting and feature motion detection, high-quality video and more, the brand says.

Know a student or young adult who is in need of a new laptop? You can grab this one for more than 30% off now. The fast processor delivers reliable performance, making it a great choice for coursework, as well as streaming, web browsing and plenty more.
One shopper who has owned multiple Lenovo laptops over the last decade shares that this one is “great” and delivers everything they need. “They’ve all worked well and are still working today. They’re not overly expensive, they work well, they look good, are reliable and have decent battery life,” they said about Lenovo’s laptops.
Amazon fall Prime Day Kindle deals
You can leave the heavy books at home and have millions of titles right at your fingertips with Amazon’s popular Kindle e-reader. This version features an adjustable front light, a glare-free display and up to six weeks of battery life on a single charge.
Amazon Kindle Paperwhite
You can also get the Kindle Paperwhite for a discount. Multiple editors on our team are huge fans of the gadget. “As someone who travels often, commutes to work regularly and lives in a small NYC apartment, the fact that it’s easy-to-handle on the go and that it saves me living space (my shelves are already too full!) have totally won me over,” says partnerships associate editor Erica Marrison. “Plus, connecting it to the Libby app is going to save me a ton of money on books. Through Libby, I’m connected to my local library, so I can take books out as I please — pressure-free.”
Amazon fall Prime Day streaming deals
Tired of losing your remote? The Fire TV Voice Remote Pro will emit a ring, so you can find it, whether it’s in the room or buried under a cushion. It also has integrated TV controls, so you can control the power and volume as well as surf live TV using just one remote.
Writer Danielle Murphy previously raved about the basic Fire TV Stick, saying that it has intuitive searching features and easily connects to other Amazon devices, such as speakers, so you can boost sound and extend voice control features.
You can also score Roku’s popular streaming stick for a discount. It’s lightweight and super portable, so you can bring it with you when you travel and never miss out on your favorite shows and movies.
Murphy loved how easy this device was to set up. “The Roku didn’t have me jumping through any log-in hoops to get started,” she said. “Other than an update that took barely a couple of minutes, I was able to start watching the next episode of ‘Love Island’ almost immediately after plugging the system into my TV. Speed is also a factor when signing into a new or existing streaming app. I love that Roku makes this a breeze by offering a QR code for practically every app, most of the time leading you directly to your phone app (where you’re already signed in), and automatically logging you in on your TV.”

We’re all craving a little extra privacy when we’re out and about, and senior editor Julie Ricevuto loves this screen designed for the iPhone.
“How it works is that it prevents visible side views of your phone from strangers in public. Your phone remains only visible to you when you look directly at it, which makes it great for commuting, traveling or crowded environments in general,” Ricevuto says. “The privacy screen is also perfect for protecting your phone because the tempered glass provides five times stronger scratch resistance and proven durability ... according to the brand. It’s also super easy to put on your phone because the box itself acts as an applicator.”
This handy little device from Amazon can do it all, from playing music to updating you about the day’s weather. It doubles as an alarm clock, and you can set it up to wake you up gently in the morning with gradual light and gentle music.
“The Soundcore 2 just works — reliably, day after day, without asking much in return,” shared one writer who compared multiple Bluetooth speaker models. “If you want a speaker that pairs instantly, lasts through a full weekend and never makes you think too hard about it, this is it.”
One of our favorite travel gadgets of the last several years has been this award-winning wireless transmitter that saves you from wearing uncomfortable wired headphones. Its long battery life (up to 25 hours, according to the brand!) will keep you plenty entertained for any length flight.
According to the writer, this speaker had the best sound quality of all the devices she tested. “The Bose SoundLink Flex stood out for its richer bass, clearer vocals and more balanced sound, especially indoors where weaker speakers often became harsh or thin,” she said. “The Bose consistently sounded good no matter what I played, whether I was listening to podcasts, acoustic music or bass-heavy playlists. Even at higher volumes, it stayed balanced and more refined than many of the other compact speakers I tested.”
This massage gun will make the perfect gift, either for yourself or a loved one this holiday season. It comes with a range of head attachments that you can use to target different problem areas, from an aching neck to sore legs.
“This Google Nest Thermostat has been perfect for my house,” one reviewer shared about this gadget. “It is simple to use, and I like being able to adjust the temperature from my phone without walking to the thermostat. Setting a schedule for different times of the day is convenient and helps me keep the house comfortable without constantly changing it manually. It looks clean and modern on the wall and has worked reliably since installation.”
Apple Watch SE 3 Smartwatch
I’m a huge fan of the Apple Watch SE 3 and recommend it to anyone who wants to monitor their health and activity levels while also staying connected. It comes in multiple colors and sizes, some of which are on sale now.
