Amazons October Prime Day sales event is here and the deals are rolling in. The Dyson V15 Detect Plus cordless vacuum is on sale for $700, which is a discount of $50. This isnt just any cordless vac. The V15 Detect topped our list of the best cordless vacuums for a number of reasons. First and foremost, the suction power is impressive. Cordless vacuums can struggle in this department, but the V15 makes short work of even the smallest dust and debris. We were consistently shocked by how much cat hair was hiding in the carpet during our tests. The Detect in the models name refers to a light embedded within the Fluffy Optic cleaning head, which is a brush roll intended for hard floors. This helps illuminate patches of dust and debris build ups, so the vacuum can do its job on the first pass. Its worth noting that this model ships with other head attachments, but they dont include the same light. Theres also a nifty LCD screen that lets users know exactly whats being sucked up into the machine, with data on the size and frequency of debris particles. This isnt really necessary, but its fun to see all of the gunk being removed from a home during a cleaning session. The V15 Detect even ships with a piezo sensor that automatically adjusts the internal engine depending on how dirty the floors are. This is a slightly upgraded version of the V15 Detect, thus the Plus in the name. Theres an improved filter with this one that promises to trap 99.99% of particles as small as 0.3 microns.

Smaller yet useful tech accessories batteries, cables, phone cases and so on are what keep the big ticket items going. And Amazons Prime Day is a good time to stock up on them. Only problem is, not everything on Amazons site passes muster, and the cheaper stuff can be particularly questionable. Luckily, weve tested plenty of these devices for one buyers guide or another, so we think stuff picked from this list should serve you well. Here are the best Prime Day Tech deals under $50. Best October Prime Day tech deals under $25 Photo by Jeff Dunn / Engadget If youve got $25 and some change in an account somewhere, you can get something decent from Amazons sale (particularly if youre a Prime member and dont have to pay for shipping). We searched for the most useful tech we could find and came up with smart home speakers, cameras and plugs, plus a mouse, a streaming stick and some cable all for less than $25. Echo Pop with TP-Link smart color bulb for $18 (72 percent off): Amazons smallest smart speaker has sold for $17 in Prime Days past, and here it is for that same price with a free smart bulb thrown in. Makes a perfect smart home starter kit. Amazon Fire TV Stick Lite for $18 (40 percent off): The budget pick in our guide to streaming devices isnt quite beating its Black Friday price from last year, but this is still a good deal if you just need a basic way to watch your streaming apps on any screen with an HDMI port. Apple AirTag for $24 ($4 off): Apples popular Bluetooth tracker is close to an all-time low. It anonymously pings nearby iPhones to create a crazy-vast finding network to help locate your lost keys, luggage or anything else you attach one to (using an accessory, of course). Amazon Smart Plug for $13 ($12 off): I was impressed how well this plug works with my Echo Dot speaker. It was easy to set up and stayed reliably connected in my tests. And this is close to an all-time low price. Belkin Apple AirTag Secure Holder for $14 ($6 off): We named this one of the best ways to secure your AirTag to just about anything. The wire cable is extra tough and attaches with an allen wrench. A less intense Belkin AirTag holder with a strap is also on sale. J-Tech Digital Ergonomic Mouse for $17 ($13 off): One of our favorite ergonomic mice is cheaper than last Prime Day thanks to a discount and a 5 percent off coupon. We like the natural, vertical grip design and the optional LED lights. Roku Express streaming stick for $18 ($12 off): For just a dollar more than its all-time low price, you can snag the runner up budget pick in our streaming device guide. Its an affordable and capable HD streaming device that lets you watch tons of free shows and movies. Kasa Outdoor Smart Plug (EP40A) for $17 ($13 off): One of the best ways to schedule and control your holiday lights is with an outdoor plug. We tried this one and found it to be easy to connect with Siri, who doesnt always play nice with smart devices. Anker USB-C to USB-C Cable (240W, 6ft) for $12 ($5 off): Stocking up on things like cables is a Prime Day must-do youll always need more of them so snag them while they're cheap. Ankers cords are solid and this one is rated to 240W with a just-right, six-foot length. Blink Mini 2 for $19.99 ($20 off): Im currently testing this camera for an upcoming guide and Ive been impressed with the accuracy of its person detection though that feature requires a subscription, which you get to try free for 30 days. Amazon Echo Buds (2023) for $24.99 (50 percent off): Open design earbuds dont go all the way into your ear canal and are therefore more comfortable for some. We named the Echo Buds best low-cost pick in that category in our budget earbud guide. Amazon Echo Pop Kids for $23 ($50 off): The Echo Pop Kids comes covered in either Marvel heroes or Disney princesses and ships with a year of access to Amazon Kids+. Amazon Echo Dot for $23 ($27 off): Amazon is matching last years Black Friday low on the Echo Dot and beating Julys Prime Day price, too. Its the top smart speaker on our list and puts out impressive sound for its size. I rely on mine daily for weather updates and smart light control. EarFun Free 2S Wireless Earbuds for $24.99 ($15 off): You dont always get much for less than $25 when it comes to earbuds. But we found these to have a comfortable fit and lively sound. Good enough for a knock-around pair. TP-Link AC1200 WiFi Extender for $23 ($27 off): If you have Wi-Fi dead spots in your home and need a low-cost solution, grab one of these at half price. We tested this model and found it was easy to set up and reliable. We named it our budget pick in Engadgets Wi-Fi extender guide. Meross Dual Smart Plug for $25 ($5 off): For about a dollar less than its most recent low, you can snag a two pack of our favorite dual-outlet smart plugs. These work with all four smart home assistants and each outlet can be controlled individually. Best October Prime Day tech deals under $30 Photo by Amy Skorheim / Engadget Add a few more dollars to your budget and you can snag Applesnew fast charger or a doorbell camera to keep tabs on your front porch while youre at work. Heres the best gadgets for less than $30 for Prime Day. Ring Indoor Cam for $29.99 ($30 off): Snag this half price deal on an indoor smart camera that was updated just last year and helps you keep tabs on any room, with 1080p and color night vision. This sale matches its all-time low price. Kasa Smart Plug Mini 15A (4-pack) for $29.99 ($20 off): The prior low we saw on this set was $34, making this an even better deal. Its the top pick in our smart plug guide because it works with all the smart assistants, isnt frustrating to set up and stays reliably connected. Amazon Echo Dot Kids for $28 ($32 off): The kids version of the smart speaker is the same basic hardware, but this one comes with a cute cover, parental controls and a years subscription to Amazon Kids+ with kid-friendly audiobooks and more. Blink Video Doorbell for $29.99 ($30 off): You can keep tabs on your porch from anywhere for just $30. Just note that youll need to hardwire it or purchase the Sync Module if you want to see video on-demand, otherwise youll need to wait for a motion-detection alert. Best October Prime Day tech deals under $40 LEGO Under the $40 mark, there are power banks, streaming devices and one of our favorite speakers. Theres even an advent calendar filled with stuff thats way more exciting than chocolate. LEGO Star Wars 2024 Advent Calendar for $36 ($9 off): The key to advent calendars is getting one early. Wait until November and the good ones are gone. That may be the case with this one, which has Leia and Luke in Christmas sweaters and is currently 20 percent off.

It boosts wireless charging speeds for the new handset, supporting a maximum rate of 25W.

It supports 4K Ultra HD, Dolby Vision, HDR10+ and Dolby Atmos audio, plus it lets you play Xbox games without a console (but with a subscription). Anker Nano Power Bank 10K for $32 ($8 off): We gave this a shout-out in our guide to power banks and this is the cheapest price we've seen. It has a handy connecting USB-C cable built in. Amazon Echo Buds with ANC (2021) for in our review Roku Streaming Stick 4K for $34 ($16 off): Thats about $6 more than the streamer sold for last Prime Day, but if you dont want to wait and see whether it goes for less during Black Friday, grab it now and start enjoying our favorite streaming device for free and live content. Best October Prime Day tech deals under $50 Chris Velazco/Engadget Items in the priciest category on this list still aren't terribly expensive. For less than $50 you can get, for example, a smart display-and-bulb bundle. Pair them up and ask Alexa to turn on the lightand make it green. Then ask to turn it off again. Then on. Then off again at 10 pm. Then have it come on tomorrow, but pink. Thats worth at least $50 right there. Apple iPhone 16 Silicone Case for $38 ($11 off): From year to year, Apple makes just enough tweaks to the design of the iPhone that last years case wont work. Those with an iPhone 16 can save a few bucks on a case that accommodates the new design and Camera Control button. Amazon Echo Spot and smart bulb for $45 ($35 off): Amazons revamped smart speaker has a half screen to show simple details like the weather, time and the song youre listening to. The other half houses an improved speaker for music and chatting it up with Alexa. Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam for $49.99 ($30 off): The motorized base can rotate 360 degrees to give you a complete view of the room and captures HD video. It has the same features as other indoor Ring cams, such as Live View and two-way talk. Soundcore by Anker Space A40 earbuds for $45 ($35 off): Our top budget earbuds are down to a new low price for Prime Day. Were fans of the pleasant, warm sound and solid ANC. Plus theyre comfortable and go for eight-ish hours on a charge. Anker 100W USB C charger block for $40 ($35 off): When you need to recharge your devices quickly, you might need more than that 25-watt brick you have lying around. This one from Anker is speedy and just sneaks under the $50 mark after a $25 discount. Echo Show 5 with TP-Link smart color bulb for $49.99 (56 percent off): The screen here is small (measuring just 5.5 inches diagonally) but its enough to display your Alexa-enabled smart camera feeds and show you cooking videos. Plus the included smart bulb lets your Show do tricks right out of the box. Tribit Stormbox Micro 2 for $48 ($32 off): We like the smallest speaker in our guide because it packs serious sound for its size. The audio isnt the highest fidelity, but the rubbery strap is perfect for strapping onto a pack, bike handlebar or elsewhere. Blink Outdoor 4 + Blink Mini 2 bundle for $49.99 ($90 off): A bundle with both an indoor and outdoor camera is 64 percent off, so you can start your home-monitoring system on the cheap. As an Amazon brand, Blink works best with other Alexa-enabled smart home devices.

It offers good video quality and does a good job of making you appear clear in low-light settings.
