Amazon sneakily released a brand new Fire HD 8 tablet yesterday, just in time for Prime Big Deal Days, and it's already on sale. Through Oct. 9 (the second day of the Prime shopping event), you can snag this brand-new tablet for just $54.99 instead of its full price of $99.99. The biggest upgrades over the previous generation from 2022 include 50 percent more RAM for enhanced performance (3GB instead of 2GB), a better camera (5MP instead of 2MP), new generative AI-powered features, and a better price. Otherwise, it features the same display, storage options, and battery life (if it ain't broke...).

$449 Save $100

With the Oura Ring 4 about to hit shelves later this month, it only makes sense to see a discount on the previous generation. The Oura Ring 3 rarely gets discounts, so it's certainly worth a spotlight on today's list. Depending on the color you choose, the third-generation smart ring is on sale for anywhere between 10% and 22% off. For instance, the stealth and brushed titanium models are 22% off, coming in at $349 down from $449. The gold and rose gold models, on the other end of the price spectrum, are $449 after a 10% discount. Regardless of the colorway, the Oura Ring is a low-profile fitness tracker that gives you in-depth info about sleep, workouts, recovery, mindfulness, and more. As Mashable Senior Editor Chris Taylor noted in his review, sleep tracking is truly where it shines.

Originally released in 2021, the Amazon Echo Buds offer a comfortable design, effective noise cancellation, and solid sound quality. While the battery life isn't anything to write home about, they're basically a no brainer if you're looking for budget earbuds with the ability to quiet the world around you. As Mashable's Alex Perry wrote in his review, they're "a really solid pair of noise-cancelling earbuds that will go easy on your wallet." Ahead of Prime Day 2, they're back down to their record-low $34.99 at Amazon. That's 71% off their original price.
