Our top pick

Amazon Fire HD 8 tablet
$54.99 at Amazon
$99.99 Save $45.00

Amazon mysteriously released a brand new Fire HD 8 tablet right before October Prime Day with 50 percent more RAM over the previous generation (3GB instead of 2GB), a better camera (5MP instead of 2MP), new generative AI-powered features, and a much better price. Otherwise it has the same display, storage options, and battery life (if it ain't broke...). It's usually just $99.99, but as of Nov. 5, it's on sale for just $54.99. That's 45% in savings and matches its all-time low price from Prime Day.

Bose Smart Soundbar
$399.00 at Amazon
$499.00 Save $100.00

Just launched in Sept., the Bose Smart Soundbar basically replaced the Bose Smart Soundbar 600, but kept its signature sleek and slim design. It features big audio upgrades, as well as AI Dialogue Mode, which you can also find on the more expensive Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar. The AI Dialogue Mode detects speech in audio streams to make it clearer amongst background noise. With five speakers, including two up-firing Dolby Atmos transducers, this tiny bar provides immersive sound for all your movies, shows, playlists, and beyond. It's usually $499, but you can grab it on sale for just $399 as of Nov. 5. That's 20% in savings and its first price drop.

If noise-cancelling earbuds are on your wishlist, but you don't want to drop over $100, the Soundcore P30is offer a lot of bang for your buck. And as of Nov. 5, they're on sale for just $29.99 at Amazon with an on-page coupon. That's 40% in savings and matches their record-low price. These earbuds offer auto-adjusting or manual noise cancellation, transparency mode, up to 45 hours of battery life with the charging case (or 30 with ANC turned on), and deep, punchy bass. You can even use the charging case as a phone stand on the go. Plus, unlike AirPods, they come in five different color options.

Looking to boost your home security on a budget? This bundle of the Blink Outdoor 4 and Blink Mini Pan-Tilt Camera allows you to dip your toes in for only $79.98. That's 42% in savings. The Blink Outdoor 4 is one of our top picks for a security camera and works seamlessly with other Alexa-enable devices in your home. It offers customizable motion-detection zones, infrared night vision, two-way audio, and a battery life that lasts two years. The Mini Pan-Tilt camera can cover the inside of your home with 360-degree coverage from your phone, tablet, or compatible Alexa device. For less than $100, you can cover the basics and get a little peace of mind.
