Find the Best Deals on Tech for Under $25 During Amazon’s Early Prime Day Sale.
Amazon’s Prime Day pre-sale is just around the corner , and there are plenty of high-ticket items on sale . But if you’re looking for great deals without breaking the bank, I’ve pulled out all the stops to find the best deals on tech under $25.
The Fire TV Stick now costs $18.
The Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K is one of Amazon’s most popular Fire TV Stick models. It’s powerful enough to watch 4K content, and during the early Prime Day sale, you can get it for just $17.99 (down from $39.99), a 50% discount. The Fire TV Stick Plus sits above the base Fire TV Stick HD ( which is also currently on sale ) and offers a 1.7 GHz quad-core processor and 2 GB of RAM for fast app launches and smooth navigation.
Anker wired headphones cost $20.
If you’re looking for in-ear headphones but don’t want to overpay for something you might lose, the Anker Soundcore P20i are a great option with impressive features for their $19.99 price (reduced from $39.99). You get Bluetooth 5.3, 30 hours of battery life, water resistance, and a full equalizer with an accompanying app.
This Iniu portable phone charger costs $24.
I recently lost my Iniu portable charger during a weekend trip. Luckily, it happened toward the end of the trip, and it served me well, saving my phone’s battery (and, by extension, my life) several times. It’s now available for $23.99 (original price: $29.99).
A reliable heart rate monitor for just over $25.
Yes, I cheated a little. This one costs $27, but trust me, those extra $2 are well spent. The CooSpo chest heart rate monitor is a specialized device. It has one purpose—measuring heart rate, and it does it so well that Lifehacker’s Senior Health Editor, Beth Skwarecki, uses it to get a baseline when testing other fitness gadgets. If heart rate monitoring is a priority for you, don’t overlook this chest heart rate monitor.
Echo Pop Kids for $24
Among all the relatively inexpensive smart speakers from Amazon, the Amazon Echo Pop is the most affordable. It’s currently on sale for $23.99 (originally $49.99) after a 52% discount. Considering it has all the same features as more expensive Echo devices, the Echo Pop is a great value for the price of an Alexa device.
Two Amazon smart plugs for $24.
Smart plugs are useful and practical tools for every home. Imagine turning any appliance plugged into an outlet into a smart device that you can control remotely. Want to turn on a lamp when you’re not home? This two-pack of Amazon smart plugs, available for $23.98 (originally $49.98), lets you do just that.
Take advantage of this opportunity to stock up on batteries with a 36% discount.
It’s easy to forget that sales like Prime Day are also a great time to stock up on essentials. Take advantage of this deal: 48-count AA and AAA battery packs from Energizer for just $24.99 (originally $38.98).
Multi-outlet surge protector for $10.
Every homeowner knows how expensive it can be to rewire a home, so finding cheaper solutions can be a real lifesaver. Instead of hiring an electrician to install additional outlets, a surge protector might be the perfect solution. Amazon currently sells one for $9.98 (originally $16.99).
Flat surge protector with surge protection for $12.
I keep one of these surge protectors by my bedside table to charge my phone, power my alarm clock, my reading light, and sometimes my smartwatch before bed. I can do this because it has a flat plug that fits conveniently behind my bed. It’s available for $12.33 (originally $19.99).
CMF By Nothing Buds, 2 for $24.
The Nothing CMF Buds Pro 2 earbuds are priced at just $24 (originally $49), the lowest price ever. For under $25, the Nothing earbuds offer better sound quality and functionality than much more expensive competitors. Let’s start with the “smart controller” on the charging case, which allows you to control the earbuds. Another amazing feature, shared with other Nothing products, is the AI assistance from ChatGPT directly from the earbuds. You also get high-quality active noise cancellation (ANC), which is surprising given the price of these earbuds. The Nothing app works on both Android and iOS and has many useful features, such as a three-band equalizer, Ultra Bass mode, and customizable controller and touch controls.
