Amazon's 8-inch Fire HD tablet is a perfect pairing with your Prime membership thanks to its qualities as a portable entertainment device.

The battery lasts through multiple movies, and it's even ready to handle some gaming for extra fun. Right now, it's $30 off for Prime Day.

Love reading? Well, you should. That counts whether it's digital or not. And if you go the digital way, the Kindle Paperwhite is a fantastic way to carry around thousands of books in a slim, waterproof device. It has 8GB of storage, a glare-free display, and eInk technology for a close real-book experience. At just more than $100, thanks to a Prime Day deal, it's a great time to up your reading game.

Amazon's Echo Show 8 is the little smart display you never knew you needed. Featuring a bright and colorful 8-inch display, perfect for your office or kitchen, the Echo Show 8 displays photos, recipes, and that awesome Prime Video show you've been meaning to watch. At $90, this is $70 off for Prime Day — and for $10 more, you get the Echo Show 8 bundled with an Amazon Smart Plug.

Amazon's Echo Show 5 is one of the best bedside or office clocks you can find. It's got a big, bright 5-inch display, a camera for video calls, and best of all, it can show all of your photos through Amazon Photos when you want to take a look at something that isn't work. At $60, it's $40 off for Prime Day — and for $85, you get a Blink Mini as part of an awesome bundle.

$25 for one of the most useful smart speakers on the planet? Yes, please. Amazon's 3rd Gen Echo Dot is $45 off for Prime Day, and it's the cheapest and easiest way to add Alexa to every room.

$190 for a speaker may seem like a lot, but you've clearly never listened to the Amazon Echo Studio. Featuring room-filling 3D sound that perfectly pairs Amazon's new Prime HD music service, the Echo Studio is one of the best smart speaker deals we've seen in Canada.

Trust me, if you haven't already upgraded to a smart doorbell, you're going to want to do that... right now. Not only does it make it convenient to answer your door from anywhere in the world — or just upstairs if you're being lazy — but it works as a great security camera, too. At $95, this 2nd Gen Ring Doorbell is $35 off for Prime Day.

Home security has gotten way smarter and way cheaper over the past few years. One of the prime examples of this is the Blink Mini, one of the most affordable smart security cameras on the market. It captures 1080p HD video, has motion detection, and supports two-way audio for easy communication. Its low price is made even more palatable during Prime Day at $15 off.

You want a mesh router. Seriously. The Eero mesh router system is among the best out there, but Canadians have always paid too much for it — until now. On Prime Day, the Eero Mesh 3-pack is $244, which is worth every penny, especially if you work from home like so many of us do these days. TRUST ME ON THIS ONE.

If you care more about portability than isolation (but still need some of that good stuff), the Sony WF-1000XM3 is your best bet. At $228, these are over $70 off their retail price, and they're some of the best-sounding and noise-isolating wireless earbuds we've ever used.

I know what you're thinking, but hear me out. Yes, $350 for a pair of earbuds is a lot, but trust me, Canada, when I say that these are the best-sounding wireless earbuds you can buy today. Sennheiser's Momentum TW2 also have incredible noise-canceling and ample battery to boot. Don't sit on this deal.

Samsung's latest true wireless earbuds are a steal at $200 — yes, they're that good — so at $150 for Prime Day, they're extra enticing. Enjoy them in black, white, or this lovely blue colorway.

Beans, beans, good for the heart. You've heard the saying, but have you heard these incredible earbuds? Featuring a bean-shaped design that molds into your ear, these are probably the most comfortable wireless earbuds you'll ever wear. Plus, they feature noise-canceling. At $200, these are a great deal.

Some of our favorite earbuds that you're most likely to overlook are the Soundcore Liberty Air 2. Not only are the Liberty Air 2 an incredible value, but they're also just darn good earbuds. Premium drivers allow for excellent sound given the price, there's Bluetooth 5.0 for great wireless performance, and there's 28-hour total battery life. For Prime Day only, they can be yours for $50 off!

Absolutely the best workout earbuds you can buy today, the Jaybird Vista are comfortable, water- and sweat-resistant, and sound great when you're jogging down the street or hours into a marathon. They also come in a range of fun colors and have tactile buttons that make it easy to play or pause music wherever, whenever. Down to $200 for Prime Day, a $40 savings!

What's that? You'd never pay this much for a pair of headphones? Let me dispel that notion for you because Sony's WH-1000XM4 noise-canceling headphones are the best in the industry, period. If you're working from home and need to cut out noise from shouting kids or the leaf-blower next door, these are your best friend — and well worth the investment.

If you don't need the latest and greatest from Sony — and let's be honest, you probably don't — these noise-canceling headphones will do the trick. Still considered some of the best-sounding cans on the market, you save $149 for Prime Day by going with the 2018 model.

The Galaxy S20+ is one of the best Android phones of the entire year, and thanks to Prime Day, buying one in Canada just got a bit more affordable. You can currently pick up the S20+ for $1,185, and while that's still a lot of money, it's a generous $393 off what it usually costs. You're getting a stunning 120Hz AMOLED display, blazing-fast performance, and great cameras.

It doesn't get much better than this in terms of cheap Android tablets. Samsung's Galaxy Tab A8 has an 8-inch display, all-day battery life, and a reliable, sturdy plastic body, and it's on sale for just $150 — $50 off — for Prime Day.

We've all been there. You've had your phone for a while, it's loaded up with a bunch of apps and movies, and you're quickly running out of space. If your phone supports expandable storage, pick up this 256GB MicroSD card from Samsung during Prime Day. It's high-quality, has a ton of room, and is pretty affordable being $19 off its normal price.

There's no denying the importance of a good Bluetooth speaker. Whether you want to jam out to music in your backyard or catch up on podcasts while your shower, it's an invaluable tool. During Prime Day, one of our favorite ones — the Anker Soundcore — is on sale for $15 off. It's compact, comes in fun colors, and sounds way better than the low price would suggest.

Sticking with Bluetooth speakers, another fantastic option comes in the form of the JBL Boombox. It's much larger and more expensive than the Anker speaker, but there's a good reason for that: it has much more impressive audio. You can easily fill an entire room (and then some) with the Boombox, which JBL describes as having "monstrous sound." You also get a built-in carrying handle, 24-hour battery life, and a hefty $190 discount during Prime Day.

You can have an amazing smartphone and tablet, but without a reliable Wi-Fi router, they aren't much use. This Prime Day, give your home network the upgrade it needs with the Google Nest Wifi Router.

Prime Day is a great opportunity for picking up a new laptop, as evident by this sale for the ASUS ZenBook Flip 14.

It normally costs $1,049, but right now, it can be yours for only $879.

An all-in-one PC is great for those who don't have a ton of office or family room space thanks to all performance hardware being built in behind the display. This IdeaCentre from Lenovo has a 32-inch FHD display with a slim bezel, and it includes an AMD Ryzen 3 4300U CPU, 8GB of DDR4 RAM, and a 256GB M.2 SSD. This is a great PC for homework and light productivity, all for $175 off.

Upgrading to a 4K UHD monitor is the way to go as PCs and consoles become more powerful, but there's a significant price gap between even 2K monitors. However, you can save a big chunk on Samsung's 28-inch 4K monitor; it retails for $449, but right now, you can get it for just $329. Samsung really knows what it's doing when it comes to screens, and here you're getting premium specs like 60Hz refresh rate, 4ms response time, AMD FreeSync support, and HDR support.

Before you go off and spend a ton of money on a new Windows computer, have you considered picking up a Chromebox instead?

This hard drive offers 10TB of storage and snappy 7200rpm performance, all for $142 off during Prime Day.

You can have an ultra-powerful processor, graphics card, and RAM setup, but none of that matters if your CPU overheats when you need it the most.

In addition to keeping your CPU as cool as a cucumber, it also has RGB lights. Because of course it does.

You don't need me to introduce you to the Fitbit Versa 2, but here's what I'll say: if you don't want an Apple Watch, but value all those delicious health stats, this is your best bet. Sure, there's a Versa 3, but it's $300 and only has a handful of upgrades. The Versa 2 is actually better in a few ways — that side button actually works, for instance — and it's $50 off for Prime Day.

If Wear OS is more your game than Fitbit or Apple Watch (likely if you have an Android smartphone), Fossil's Gen 5 Carlyle at $255 for Prime Day is one hell of a deal. Available in several colors and strap styles, this is one of the best smartwatches available right now.

An old standby, the Samsung Galaxy Watch is still one of the best smartwatches on the market today. Its rotating circular bezel makes it intuitive to move around the Tizen-powered OS, and the number of apps, from fitness to payments, make this an excellent deal at $70 off for Prime Day.
