Kindle Paperwhite If you have extra cash to spend, the Paperwhite Signature Edition (8/10, WIRED recommends) comes with a few more features than the standard Paperwhite. The screen can automatically adjust brightness based on the lighting in your environment, the page turn rate is faster, and there’s more storage—the Signature edition has 32 gigabytes while the standard has 8 gigabytes. We recommend this if you listen to a lot of audiobooks. The basic Kindle (8/10, WIRED recommends) is the best choice for those who want an extremely simple ebook reader. It packs a 6-inch E Ink touchscreen and a built-in front light for night reading. You’ll also get 8 gigabytes of storage, which can hold around 5,000 books. This is also the lowest price we’ve tracked. Kindle Oasis For a luxurious experience, you’ll want to go with the Kindle Oasis. It has an aluminum body, a large 7-inch screen with automatic brightness adjustment, tactile page turning buttons and fast performance. Well worth the big price if you’re looking for a feature-packed Kindle. If you want something more robust than the Kids Edition, go for the Paperwhite because it’s waterproof. At 6.8 inches, you’ll also get a larger screen than the 6-inch screen on the standard model. Echo Show 8 In our review of the Echo Show 5, we criticized the device for its small screen—because it’s slightly too small for comfortable navigation. However, it’s still a good choice if you want a smart display that’s compact enough to fit on your desk or nightstand. It also has a physical mute button and camera shutter for privacy. But if you want a bigger screen, we recommend the Echo Show 8. It often fluctuates in price, but this is the lowest we’ve seen. We’ve crowned the Echo Dot (8/10, WIRED recommends) as the best Alexa speaker in our buying guide. The spherical speaker fits anywhere in the house and fills the room with 360-degree sound. Thanks to Alexa, you’ll also be updated on the weather and news, as well as the ability to set timers and alarms. Concerned about privacy? There is a physical button that allows you to turn off the microphones as well. It’s also $5 cheaper than the lowest sale price. Echo Dot Kids Edition The Echo Buds (8/10, WIRED Recommends) have a ton of features, including noise cancellation, wireless charging, and customizations via their connected app. But we especially like these headphones for their Alexa integration, which lets you check the weather, set timers, and update your grocery list via voice commands—all while listening to your music. These headphones dropped to $50 back in April, but that’s still a solid deal. Fire HD 8 WIRED reviewer Scott Gilbertson says the Fire HD 8 is “one of the best values ​​for a tablet.” It has an updated processor for fast performance, HD display and 12 hours of battery life. If you want additional features like more RAM and wireless charging, the Fire HD 8 Plus is also on sale for $50 ($60 off). The Fire HD 10 (7/10, WIRED recommends) is our favorite Fire tablet of them all. The latest version has a brighter screen, consistent battery life and extra RAM for smoother performance. We also recommend the HD 10 With Bluetooth Keyboard, which also retails for $170 ($25 off). It comes with a free year of Microsoft 365 and is an ideal setup for doing some light work. If you want a bigger screen, there’s also the Fire HD 10 Plus. The 10.1-inch screen, with 1080p resolution, is a great choice if you plan to use it to watch movies, TV shows and videos. It also has slightly more RAM than the standard version, at 4 gigabytes. Fire HD 8 Kids For those with older children, we recommend the Fire HD 10 Kids Pro, as it’s larger than the Fire HD 8. It’s more expensive, but in addition to a larger screen, kids can also request to install apps from a kids’ app store—the which parents must manually approve. It also comes with a less heavy-duty protective case. Don’t buy Older Fire 7 Tablets We recommend the Fire TV Stick Lite if you have a standard HD TV and don’t plan to upgrade to a 4K TV. The Lite version has access to all the major streaming apps and a more basic version of the Alexa remote—no dedicated buttons for Netflix, a button for TV power, or volume controls. But you can download another app for that. Eero 6 Mesh System Halo View received an honorable mention in the Best Fitness Trackers buying guide. It’s also at the lowest price we’ve seen. It’s affordable, comfortable on the wrist and has an easy-to-use companion app. However, WIRED senior editor Adrienne So says she doesn’t like how it pushes business partnerships or tells you to strip down to your underwear for a quick body composition measurement.
