The best Prime Day tech deals to shop during Prime Big Deal Days

We'd like to put in a "plug" for this handy-dandy product — it's an ingenious new friend for anyone new to the world of smart-home tech. It makes it easy to control "dumb" appliances through your phone or with your voice through another Alexa device. 

Real talk: If you don't have a 4K TV, there's simply no need to pony up for a streaming device built for that resolution. Instead, check out the Fire TV Stick Lite. It supports both 720p and 1080p resolution. This is the lowest price we've seen on this gadget in months — even lower than last Prime Day.

This is for you other folks: If you've got a 4K set and are looking to cut the (cable) cord, the Fire TV Stick 4K is the state-of-the-art streaming sidekick you need. Enjoy 4K content from all of your favorite services (like Hulu, Netflix, and Amazon Prime) with just the touch of a button. And feel free to ask Alexa for movie and TV suggestions if you aren't quite sure what to watch. 

This is the latest and greatest Dot, outfitted to pump out bigger, better sound than ever before. You know what else is bigger? The discount! This is the lowest price this handy little gadget has ever been.

Wouldn't you love to have an entire media ecosystem in your hand? Now you can. Watch your favorite shows, read books through Kindle, and explore the web with the built-in Silk browser. And oh yeah: You're looking at another all-time low price right here!

Does your Wi-Fi go wobbly when you're off in the servants' quarters, the solarium ... or, you know, the kitchen? Resurrect those dead zones with this. It provides up to 1,500 square feet of coverage and supports speeds up to 550 Mbps. It also features two Ethernet ports and an array of security features to keep you and your brood safe while browsing. 

This is a Prime time to snag a budget-friendly solution to your home security needs. This kit comes with a trio of cameras, each powered by a pair of (included!) lithium AA batteries, which will dependably stand sentry in the nastiest weather conditions. 

This glare-free e-reader is easy on the eyes and comes with 32GB of RAM, no ads (woohoo!), and a fabric cover to keep it safe. Also easy on the eyes: This fetching 25% discount. 

Got a smallish abode but big security concerns? Behold the Ring Video Doorbell Pro 2 and Ring Floodlight Cam. This dynamic duo will let you know whenever someone is at your door, and beam 2,000 lumens of light across your backyard, respectively. 

Get a load of these waterproof wireless buds that are lightweight, boast one-step Bluetooth pairing and give you up to 24 hours of juice with the portable charging pod.

Powerful noise cancellation combines with high quality drivers to deliver an audio experience that's practically unmatched, especially when it comes to in-ear comfort. 

Simply put, this is the ultimate in wearable technology. It'll sense your health data (make sure you get those steps in!) store your music, help you find your way with GPS and field your texts and calls. The aluminum case keeps it sturdy, the sleek band makes it sporty.

The camera on this baby will follow the subject of a video call, making sure they stay in frame. That's just one of many genius features that makes this such a popular tablet with Amazon shoppers. How popular? Try nearly 46,000 five-star fans and counting.

Here's one 3-year-old you'll always be happy to have around! Featuring Apple's trademark M1 Pro Chip, this 13-inch laptop is the ultimate in portability and power — its battery will last up to 18 hours on one charge. Toddle on over and get yourself one!

A fantastic viewing and gaming experience doesn't need to cost you an arm and a leg — or even $130. Built-in Fire TV functionality means you can access all of your favorite streaming services with the touch of a remote, and your purchase (you are going to purchase this, right?) includes six months of MGM+. Not sure what to watch? Let Alexa clue you in. 

This gorgeous set comes packed with features, like Google Assistant and Alexa! The X1 Processor handles motion blur and upscaling will make decades-old content look like it was lensed yesterday. It's even game (heh) for a session with your PS5 console.

Not only does this TV have a massive display, but Dolby Vision, HDR10, Dolby Atmos, and a slew of other advanced featuresmake sure you're getting maximal quality to go along with that quantity. There's even the Auto Game Mode that reduces input lag, and a bezel-free design (translation: there's no space-wasting border around your image — it's all screen!). 

Aside from all those impressive-sounding acronyms and abbreviations in this product's name, you'll also get to enjoy the Fire TV Ambient Experience, whereby you can display personal artwork and photos; access to every dang streaming service; and a free half-year subscription to MGM+.

There's no day like Prime Day to make that purchase-of-a-lifetime splurge. And, at nearly $1,000 off, snagging this behemoth of a set won't even feel all that splurge-y. Its 60Hz display has up to a 120Hz refresh rate (that's fast) and utilizes Sony's Motionflow XR tech to smooth out the picture, all while producing over one billion different colors. Dolby Vision & Dolby Atmos will ensure multiplex-level majesty right in your living room.
