Amazon is bringing back Black Friday prices on its best-selling tech gadgets — Echo, Ring and Blink from $18

I've had my eye on the Blink Mini 2 since its release, and now that it's on sale for just $17.99, it's a must-buy. The compact security camera features two-way audio and will alert your phone when motion is detected. The Blink 2 also includes a 1080p HD live view, night view in color with a built-in spotlight, and a wider field of view.

Need a cheap streaming device to add smart capabilities to a TV? The new version of Amazon's standard Fire TV Stick is 46% off, bringing the price down to just $18.99. In our Fire TV Stick review, we found the original version was a cheap way to add essential smart features to your TV, including access to streaming apps in HD, Alexa voice controls, and the ability to control other smart home devices.

As the name suggests, the Fire TV Stick 4K streams shows and movies to your TV in ultra-high-definition 4K resolution. Amazon claims the newest Select model is the fastest 4K stick under $40, and today's deal brings the price down to just $19.99.

This is $5 shy of the record-low price for Amazon's premium streaming device. The Fire TV Stick 4K Max streams the same content at the same quality as the standard 4K version, but the extra power inside delivers faster app navigation. Plus, it uses Wi-Fi 6E technology to deliver a more stable, consistent streaming experience.

If you're looking for a robust smart speaker, Amazon has the Echo Dot for just $31.99. Amazon's best-selling smart speaker offers an improved audio experience, plus a new temperature sensor and all the handy features from Alexa, like playing music, answering questions, and checking the weather completely hands-free.

The Echo Spot is already in my shopping cart, and I can't wait for it to arrive. Amazon's brand-new Echo Spot pairs a 2.83-inch touch screen with a 1.73-inch front-firing speaker, making it an ideal smart alarm clock. With Alexa onboard, you can ask the assistant for the weather, play music, or even schedule alarms. Today's deal is a record-low price and $5 cheaper than Black Friday.

I already own the best-selling Ring Video Doorbell and can't imagine living without it. The smart doorbell features a built-in battery and lets you see, hear, and speak to anyone from your phone or computer. Today's Amazon deal is a record-low price.

The Ring Battery Video Doorbell Plus offers higher resolution than the standard model, plus color night vision, and it's only $20 more with today's offer, so why not upgrade and treat your home to enhanced security?

We consider the Outdoor 4 the best outdoor security camera, so we're thrilled that it's available at a massive 65% discount. It's wire-free and satisfyingly simple to set up, with a battery life of up to 2 years. It features a user-friendly app that lets you make the most of 1080p HD video and two-way audio, with additional features available with a Blink subscription.

There's a massive 50% discount on this easy-to-install Ring Indoor Cam at Amazon. This plug-in security camera works with Alexa and offers motion detection and real-time notifications, so you can stay up to date on what's happening.

Amazon's best-selling Echo Show 5 is on sale for $59.99, which is only $5 more than this year's Black Friday price. The 2023 Echo Show 5 features a compact 5.5-inch display but packs impressive sound with deeper bass and clearer vocals. With Amazon Alexa, you can listen to podcasts, movies, music, and more.

Along similar lines, the new Echo Show 11 packs much the same specs as the Echo Show 5 above, but with a larger display well-suited for kitchens and offices, where bigger real estate makes for easier viewing even across the room. Today's deal from Amazon is the lowest price we've ever seen.

The latest Echo Show 15 just got a significant refresh, bringing its specs up to date and offering a better Alexa experience. These were the first smart displays from Amazon to receive the Alexa+ treatment and, naturally, offer one of the better user experiences with Amazon's gen AI-boosted subscription service.
