Amazon Echo Dot (40% off list price)
With an impressive 4.7 out of 5-star rating on Amazon, the fifth-generation Echo Dot has been a smart speaker of choice for years. This compact speaker employs a richer and louder sound than other generations before it and seamlessly connects with all your smart home systems, streaming services and phone so it can be commanded with just you voice.
Amazon Echo Pop with free smart bulb (61% off list price)
If you need something smaller than the Echo Dot, consider its baby sister, the Echo Pop. While the Dot has 360-degree sound, the Pop has a front-facing speaker you can aim from any nook or cranny in your living space, and it's likely to fit due to its small, compact size. It recognizes voice commands via Alexa, too and this smart speaker comes bundled with a free smart, voice-enabled LED light bulb which you can install into any light fixture and use via Alexa voice commands (a $19.99 value).

Amazon Echo Spot with free smart bulb (44% off list price)
The Echo Spot is an alarm clock with smart features that let you check the weather, play music and audiobooks and control your other smart home devices all from its hub. Its alarm feature gradually brightens a light when it's time to wake up to mimic a sunrise, plus it has a vibrant sound for booming wake-up tunes. It can even take phone calls. This alarm clock also comes bundled with a free LED smart bulb (a $19.99 value). Grab the clock in white, black or blue.
Also, like the previous bundle offering, it's the same price with or without the smart bulb so we recommend you grab the bundle so your money goes the longest way.

Amazon Fire TV Stick (38% off list price)
Don't have a smart TV? The Fire TV Stick can solve that issue with a plug-and-play upgrade. You just plug the device into your TV's HDMI port, power it on, and use the remote to navigate apps like Prime TV, Netflix, Hulu and more. It's also capable of using Alexa voice commands to talk to your remote when you want to change the channel or switch between streaming services.
Amazon
Ring video doorbell (40% off list price)
The Ring lets you see, hear and speak to anyone at your doorstep right from your phone, tablet or computer, so you can keep a live eye on your door wherever you are, including at nighttime. It also gives you mobile notifications when it detects motion or when someone presses the doorbell, so you’ll never a miss a person or a package.
It connects easily to Wi-Fi, is powered by a rechargeable battery (though you can also hook it up to your regular doorbell wiring for constant power) and is compatible with Alexa.
Plus, this version is updated to include enhanced privacy and security features, like audio privacy, video encryption and restricted device access that you can control through the Ring app (you can read more about its privacy options).
Amazon Kindle (15% off list price)
Physical books are great and all, but wouldn’t it be nice to carry them without the weight? This famous e-reader still dominates the market due to its lengthy battery life (up to a claimed six weeks on a single USB-C charge), supreme lightweight “that feels like nothing in your hand,” six-inch display with built-in light and ample 16 GB storage.
As our own shopping staff writer and bookworm Haley Zovickian aptly sums up, “the Kindle is an excellent and incomparable tool for enabling us readers to read as much as possible, wherever we are.” Right now, you can grab one for yourself on sale at 15% off its typical price — a discount that’s actually lower than the 10% we saw last Prime Day.

Amazon Smart Thermostat (20% off list price)
This smart thermostat can replace your traditional one with features to help your home conserve energy. If you own Amazon Echo devices, they can send the thermostat information about each room they're in to address hot/cold spots in your home. You can also set it on an automatic schedule and use Alexa (via other devices, as this thermostat doesn't have a mic) to change its temp.
Note: This thermostat may be eligible for an up to $50 rebate depending on where you are. Just entire your zip code to see if you qualify for the return savings.
Amazon Echo Show 8 (30% off list price)
More smart hub than a tablet — though you can use it as that, too — the Echo Show screen sits on your counter to work as a remote for all of your connected smart devices. Use it to control your smart lights, thermostat, security cameras and more. Or, pick it up and use it to take video calls or stream your favorite show. Its speakers are powerful and they support spatial audio to fill any room that it sits in.
Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet (36% off list price)
The latest and greatest Amazon Fire HD 10 is the largest portable tablet Amazon has to offer, with a 10-inch display in full 1080p. It's faster than any previous model and supports handwriting if you've got yourself a stylus. The tablet has a front- and back-facing camera, works with Amazon Alexa and has a 13-hour battery life. Grab it in purple, blue or black, with 32 GB or 64 GB of storage.

Amazon Fire HD 8 Plus tablet (36% off list price)
The Amazon Fire HD 8 Plus is a smart tablet with an 8-inch screen, 3 GB of RAM, 32 GB of storage and many apps so you can browse the internet or watch Netflix from anywhere there's a Wi-Fi connection. It's roughly 10 inches tall, making it compact enough to tuck into a bag while commuting or use as a colorful — though slightly heavier — Kindle e-reader alternative. It lasts up to a claimed 13 hours and supports wireless charging. Get it in purple, blue or black.
