They make great gifts for anyone who goes to the gym or needs some peace and quiet during the workday.

A companion in the kitchen or bedside, Echo Show 8.
You can think of the Echo Show 8 as an Alexa speaker with a screen. If you have someone on your list who could use a kitchen assistant to show off recipes, or a companion to help them get up in the morning (or relax at night), grab the second-generation Echo Show 8 for $54.99 (originally $129 $.99). .

Kindle e-reader for the bookworm
There’s definitely a bookworm on your list, and if his bookshelves are taking up too much space at home, consider gifting him a $99.99 Kindle e-reader . I’m a big fan of Kindles; they’re super small (they fit in big pockets), have an insane battery life (I’m talking weeks on a charge), can store thousands of books, are pretty affordable, and you can get free books on them at your local library. This particular Kindle is the last one available and has 16GB of memory and a screen that can be manually adjusted for nighttime reading.
