Amazon The Amazon Echo Pop is like a sliced-in-half Echo Dot with slightly thinner sound, but its fun colors, lower price (especially now!), and handy Alexa make it a playful pick for dorms or small spaces. Amazon The Amazon Echo Dot (5th Gen) is a miniaturized Echo with the same design, better bass than past Dots, and surprisingly powerful sound—now at an even better price. Lamicall This tablet holder works perfectly for e-readers, tablets, and even a Nintendo Switch. It's ideal for bed or couch use, reducing wrist strain, and easily secures to any ledge or table.

A small tradeoff for reliable performance, especially at this price. Baseus Baseus' retractable USB-C cable avoids tangles with preset lengths (1.1-3.3 ft) and auto-rewinds into its case. It charges at 100W, and comes in multiple colors. JLab Audio 2025's best bargain: These noise-canceling wireless buds (with app control, multi-point pairing, and great bass-blocking) cost less than takeout for two, even less on sale.

Hamilton Beach "For quick, small jobs like dicing onions, this compact Hamilton Beach chopper—a WIRED staff favorite—is a Prime Day bargain. Emergen-C Ideal for sick days, travel, or early sore throats, this powder delivers 1,000mg vitamin C, B vitamins, and electrolytes.

I've achieved peak coziness with this Kindle holder and Bluetooth page turner

In winter, there's nothing better than curling up by the fire with a good book — except I live in a New York City apartment in 2025, so I like to curl up in my bed under at least three blankets with my Kindle every night before going to sleep. The only downside to this otherwise delightful routine? Having to forgo becoming engulfed in a full-on blanket burrito, relinquishing my arms to the cold air of the room in order to 1) hold my Kindle and 2) turn its virtual pages. Unwilling to endure icicle arms any longer, I crafted the ultimate cozy reading setup that allows me to properly cocoon myself under the covers like the snug bug in a rug I've always hoped to be. It requires just two products that I promise will change the way you read before bed forever, both of which are under $50 combined. Lamicall Gooseneck Tablet Holder Available in gray and black, this e-reader and tablet holder can mount onto any piece of furniture, including a bed frame or headboard. Its flexible arm can then be adjusted to perfectly position your device within your line of sight. SK SYUKUYU Remote Control Page Turner for Kindle This easy-to-set-up Bluetooth remote offers a hands-free reading experience for your Kindle. It can also be used with iPhone, iPad and Android tablets, and it's especially useful for people with specific accessibility needs. Related article I asked 10 bookworms how to read more in 2025, and here's what they said The first order of business is selecting the right Kindle holder. A quick Amazon search reveals that most Kindle holders are pretty similar — some attach to your bed frame, others stand on the floor — but since my aforementioned NYC apartment is short on space, I went with the former, ultimately landing on the Lamicall Gooseneck Tablet Mount. This mount, which could technically be used to hold any tablet, can be affixed to furniture via an adjustable clamp. I personally have mine secured onto my bed frame's headboard, but I could also see someone attaching this to the lower part of their bed frame or even their nightstand. Then, you can twist the flexible arm to allow your e-reader of choice to hover in front of your face at whatever distance and position suits you. I originally purchased an all-white version years ago that's no longer available, but it doesn't matter, because the new version available on Amazon is better. I recently upgraded to the new model in gray and found that this holder's arm is even easier to position exactly right, and I appreciate that the part of the mount that holds the tablet can also swivel 360 degrees and tilt up and down so that no matter which way you lie, your screen is in sight. Even when reading isn't on the agenda, I could totally see this mount being useful for watching movies on an iPad in bed, following recipes in the kitchen or being an extra display at a desk. It's easy enough to screw into place that using it all around your home should be a breeze. Of course, a mount alone only solves the problem halfway; you'll still need to tap the screen to turn the page on an e-reader. And with the Lamicall specifically (though I imagine most mounts would present a similar issue), when you tap the screen, the device tends to wobble a bit — not ideal for a seamless reading experience. That's where the SK SYUKUYU Remote Control Page Turner — which has more than 11,000 reviews and a high 4.4-star rating, way more than other Bluetooth page turners on Amazon — comes in. Once I tried it for myself, I was hooked for a few reasons. First, it's incredibly easy to set up and use. Simply attach the clip part directly onto your Kindle — I'm careful to attach it toward the middle of the Kindle in a margin so that it doesn't interfere at all with the text — and press the button on the back to turn it on. That's it. You're ready to click the button on the remote to turn the page. So if you were feeling daunted by a Bluetooth remote because of a presumed complicated setup process, don't. Also, the curvy shape of this remote is surprisingly ergonomic and feels good in the hand. I actually can't count the amount of times I've fallen asleep holding this remote (and woken up to my Kindle screen mere inches away from my face), and my only pain point, really, is that I've subsequently lost a few remotes in my bed, which could have been avoided if I'd actually used the included wrist strap. Did I buy a few extra SK SYUKUYUs to have on hand in case of remotes lost in a sea of blankets? The answer is not no. And with that, you're ready to read. Tuck those arms under your covers, get cozy and start clicking your way toward that Goodreads goal. If you fall asleep within minutes, that just means it's working.
