Amazon Prime Day is a chance for Senior members While buying all sorts of things on sale and discounts may not be worth your time, the ones on gadgets actually can be. Prime Day discounts We’ve discounted many of our favorites in the past, and this year will be no different.

And the good news is that not all discounts are on high-priced products. Yes, you can get good tech without spending a fortune during this sale. These are the best Prime Day deals under $25 we can find for 2024.
As a reminder (and for the uninitiated): Engadget looks at tech deals with the same care as we give tech news ‘regularly’. When we scour the web for deals, we’re not just looking for the best possible prices, we’re also looking for the best products. With deals coverage, especially around events like Amazon Prime Day, our goal is to feature only the best deals we can find on gadgets we’ve tested and raved about or used and know are worth your money.
The Apple AirTag It’s our pick of Bluetooth trackers for iPhone users. It taps into Apple’s extensive Find My network to track down missing items, prompting nearby iPhones to anonymously ping and triangulate the location. Right now, it’s on sale for $24 a sticker instead of the $29 list price, one of the best Prime Day deals under $25 this year.
Most of Amazon famous echo speaker, Echo Dotit’s our choice the best smart speaker Less than $50. It plays music with surprisingly good audio, plus you can control your smart home devices, get weather information, and more just by asking Alexa.
It goes for $50 full price, but the Prime Day sale drops it to $25, which is just $2 more than the lowest price we saw for Black Friday last year. That makes it one of the best Prime Day deals under $25 for the year.
The smallest Echo is a speaker Echo Popand is currently down to $18 instead of the full $40, which is 55 percent off and matches the lowest price we’ve seen in past sales.
The smaller size means you can add Alexa assistance and smart home control to dorms, bathrooms, small kitchens, or other spaces that don’t have a lot of space.
The discount applies to all four colors: black, white, lavender and teal. For about $2 more, you can get a Pop With Sengled smart bulb.
For Prime Day you can get The Echo Pop is paired with a smart bulb For $20. The set costs $60 when purchased separately and at full price.
The Echo Pop makes the most sense where space is at a premium – small kitchens, dorm rooms and bathrooms come to mind. When paired with an Alexa speaker and a smart light bulb, this set becomes a small smart home starter kit.
The Fire TV Stick Lite it’s usually pretty affordable at $30, but right now it’s half price at just $15. That matches an all-time low for Black Friday.
Lite is a stick budget option in our guide to streaming devices. It supports FHD streaming with HDR and comes with an Alexa remote – just note that it can’t control volume or power on your TV, you’ll still need your original remote for that.

The second generation of the mini camera works both indoors and outdoors, but a weatherproof power adapter is required if you want to keep it outside. Like all security smart cameras, it will alert you when motion is detected and can send you a live view of what it sees, allowing you to hear and speak to anyone standing in front of you.
Amazon’s own smart plug is one we recommend For people with an Alexa-enabled smart home. It connects with zero fuss and reliably controls the light bulb, fan or other simple device you plug in. I’ve used many different smart plugs over the past year and this one continues to be the most reliable – just remember it only lasts. Work with Alexa-enabled speakers or through the Alexa app on iOS or Android.
Currently, the chip is down to $13 after a 48 percent discount. This matches the lows we saw last year for both the July and October Prime Days.
The Kasa TP-Link Smart Wi-Fi Open Plug EP40A on sale for $20 instead of $25 with the coupon. It’s not an all-time low, but it’s a fair price for one of us top outdoor smart plugs.
If you’re planning an extravagant (or even minimal) Halloween and holiday lighting scheme for the outside of your home, this might make a good buy. It works with all four smart home assistants (Alexa, Siri, Google Assistant and Samsung’s SmartThings) and has a long Wi-Fi range and two outlets that you can control individually.
Anchor Bio-braided USB-C to USB-C cable is one of our options for the best iPhone charging cables. On sale for $15 instead of $18. Not an all-time low, but good value for a wide 6-foot cable that supports up to 240W charging.
We consider this one of the best Prime Day deals under $25 this year, as these cables can charge any device at high speeds thanks to their 240W support. Six feet is also a good length for a charging cable—you won’t have to keep it close to the wall when using these.

in our guide to best budget headphoneswe called Amazon Echo Buds best choice with open ear design. We like that they support auto-pause and multi-device pairing. They look great out of the box, but it’s definitely worth tweaking the sound with the EQ sliders in the Alexa app.
For Prime Day, Amazon has dropped the price of their buds to $25, which is half off their list price and $10 off their previous all-time low.
The Roku Express It has dropped from $30 to $18. This is the most budget option in our streaming device guide. We like Roku’s useful (and attractive) interface, which lets you access tons of free content.
Just note that the Express version doesn’t support 4K, the remote isn’t voice-activated, and it can’t control your TV’s volume or power. You can choose if you want to use 4K support and a remote control to control the TV Roku Express 4K+ which is reduced to $27 instead of $40.
