This is the best smart socket we tested. The four-pack was previously as low as $30. Also at B&H Photo
Anker Micro 3-in-1 Portable Charger (10K mAh 30W) for only $30 ($15 off at Amazon]: I love this sleek, little box. It’s a power bank that can recharge a phone up to 1.5 times.

It can deliver 100 watts of power to your handset, and Anker cables have proven to be durable in our experience. Plus, it’s red! This cable can handle data transfer in a pinch but is limited to only 480 Mbps.
Anker Memory Card Reader (USB C, SD, and microSD) $9 ($9 off).: This is a great example of an Anker: a simple, affordable solution that works. I needed a USB-C SD card reader. I bought it. It works. I’m happy.
Anker USB C Cable (240W) 10ft for $12 at Amazon: If you are tired of the substandard, half-broken cables that clutter your junk drawer, grab a few of these. It’s always ready to charge with the maximum power delivery of USB-C, which is 240W. This is best for charging, as the data transfer rate is only 480 Mbps. Also available Anker

Bellemonde Kent Paper Screen Protection for iPad (2 Pack) for $14 ($4 with Prime) at Amazon.: We named this paper screen protector as one of the top iPad accessories for 2025. I put one on the iPad a few years ago and it has been a great experience ever since. It adds a matte finish to the screen and a satisfying texture that is perfect for the Apple Pencil. Double check that you are getting the right size for your iPad model.
Spigen iPhone 17 Case at Amazon for $13 ($3 off Prime): It seems a shame that the new iPhones’ pretty colors are covered up. It’s not a good idea to leave your phone naked.

Roku Streaming Stick HD at Roku for $16 ($14 Off): After testing the majority of smart TV interfaces, Roku is still my favourite.

These are some of the most attractive fobs that we’ve tested. It connects with Samsung’s own network for finding lost items, which is surprisingly robust. In our tests, it was able locate lost things nearly as quickly as AirTags.
Amazon has LEGO Botanicals Happy Plants on sale for $18 ($5 discount): This is a great Secret Santa gift. Everyone loves Legos, and these cheerful little guys will keep the recipient company at their desk or windowsill. They are also low-maintenance. Also at Target Walmart .
Amazon has theApple AirTag Bluetooth Tracker for $18 (11 dollars off).: A new version of Apple’s little finder discs is almost certain to be on the horizon.

Amazon hasKasa outdoor smart plug (dual socket) on sale for $19 ($8 discount): Tired of manually turning off your outdoor holiday lighting each night? Schedule the controls. Or, better yet, have Alexa, Siri, or the Google Assistant turn off your lights with a simple command. This is the smart plug we recommend in our guide. It was the one that controlled my Halloween lights faithfully last month. It has been as low as $17 before.
Baseus Picogo MagSafe Power Bank (5000 mAh, 10W), $19 ($8 with Prime) on Amazon: We tested the newer version of this MagSafe power bank for our battery guide.

Amazon has TP-Link’s AC1200 WiFi extender on sale for $19 (37%): If your home internet coverage is lacking and you aren’t ready to switch to a mesh system, a Wi Fi extender may be the solution. This is the best budget option we’ve found in our guide of plug-in devices, thanks to its simple setup and user-friendly application.
Amazon offers the Echo Glow Multicolor Smart lamp for $20 (savings of $10): This item is on sale every time Amazon has a sales event. Every time I think about buying it. Engadget doesn’t have the time to test it, but after trying enough Amazon hardware we know that it does what it is supposed to — pair with an Alexa Speaker and light up as per your instructions. That’s it. Is it worth $30? Most likely not. Maybe it’s worth 20 dollars?
Roku 4K Streaming Stick Plus for $20 (a $20 discount) at Roku.: In my review, I said that this streaming stick was perfect for traveling. It charges itself from your TV, so you don’t need to search for a wall socket in your hotel room. You can also bring your streaming subscriptions along, or simply enjoy the plethora of free content available on Roku. Also at Amazon

Amazon has theChipolo Pop Bluetooth Tracker for only $23 ($6 off).: After testing every Bluetooth tracker I could find, I believe this is the best one out there. It’s even better than AirTags; it’s louder, ringing your phone, and uses the same massive Find My Network as AirTags. It’ll also work with Google’s Find Hub for Android users. For more information, check out Engadget???s guide to Bluetooth trackers. Also available Chipolo directly
Amazon Fire TV Stick for 4K Plus at $25 ($25 off).: We don’t understand why Amazon has so many streaming sticks. The 4K Plus has the same features as the 4K Max, except that it has less storage (8GB) and doesn’t have Wi-Fi6E (only Wi-Fi6). You also won’t get Ambient, which turns your TV into a piece of art. If you have the extra money, it’s worth it. The Maxhas many features, but if they don’t interest you, you can save $10 now.
Roku Stick 4K for only $25 ($25 off) from Roku: This streamer is different from the newer 4K Plus because it has Dolby Vision and an extended Wi-Fi Range. If you want that extra range or have a TV with Dolby Vision support, this is the Roku Stick to buy.
