The Best Price on a Budget-Friendly Speaker

The JBL Go 5 is our top budget Bluetooth speaker. It’s available in 10 colors, most of which are down to a match of the best price we’ve seen. It’s durable, lightweight, and sounds good for its size. —Louryn Strampe

The Best Android Earbuds at a Low Price

The Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 remain our top earbuds for Android users (they also work with iOS). They’re aesthetically pleasing. They sound great. They’re comfortable, have a long-lasting battery, and active noise cancellation, plus some useful software features. If you want good earbuds that aren’t AirPods, these might be up your alley. —Louryn Strampe

The Best Workout Buds

This deal for our favorite workout earbuds is a match of the best we’ve seen, though the regular sale of $200 is still a decent price if the cost changes. The Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 play well with iOS and Android, have punchy sound, and feature the option for both transparency mode and active noise canceling. —Louryn Strampe

A Smart Display Worth Buying

Amazon launched two new Echo Show smart displays last year, and the Echo Show 11 was easily the better of the two. This time around, the sound has been improved, and the screen is larger—but not so big that it’s unwieldy to put on a kitchen counter. Amazon did raise the price by $30 at the end of August, but this is still the lowest deal price I’ve seen for it since its launch, so it’s still a good buy. —Nena Farrell

A Great Charger for All Your Devices

I have tested many, many Apple 3-in-1 wireless chargers, and it’s worthy of a place on your nightstand. It’s been redesigned, now using a classy-looking mix of matte zinc and soft-touch black plastic with a lovely weighted base. The iPhone pad can also be tilted to hold your iPhone vertically or horizontally, with support for StandBy mode. It can fast-charge iPhone and Apple Watch models, as well as charge any AirPods with a wireless charging case. The 5-foot barrel jack cable and 40-watt wall charger come bundled in the box. —Simon Hill

An Excellent Kindle for Your Kiddos

Once again, the best Kindle deals are on the color models. I think kids are the best candidates to enjoy the color screen since they’re more likely to select a graphic novel or have illustrations included in their books. It’s almost $100 off and comes with not only a case like the Kids Paperwhite, but a full year of Kids+ content. With those combinations, it’s a worthy upgrade while it’s on sale from just getting the Kids Paperwhite. —Nena Farrell
