A bunch of Amazon Fire, Kindle, and Echo devices are on sale today
Ars Technica

Today's Dealmaster is headed by a new round of Amazon device deals, with a number of Kindle e-readers, Fire tablets, and Echo speakers and smart displays all discounted. The sale is ostensibly available for Mother's Day, though Amazon's ongoing coronavirus-induced shipping delays have made it so most of these items won't make it out in time by this weekend. Still, there are a few worthwhile offers here.

One highlight is the latest Kindle Paperwhite down to $95 from a typical price of $130. We've seen it drop $5-10 cheaper on a handful of occasions, but if you're looking for a new e-reader, this is still a good price for our top pick on the market. Amazon's Fire tablets are also on sale, with the Fire HD 8 down to $60 and the Fire HD 10 down to $110. Again, we've seen all of these slates go for $10 or so cheaper in rarer sales, but each is still 20 to 25 percent off their normal going rates. While none of them can really touch Apple's iPad—which is also on sale today—the Fire HD 8 and 10 are decent values for those who only need a tablet for casual videos and Web browsing. (The entry-level Fire 7 is also on sale for $40, though that's only advisable for people who strictly want to spend as little as possible on a tablet.)

Beyond that, the company's Echo Show 5 and Echo Show 8 are back at their lowest prices to date—$50 and $80, respectively—for those who want an Echo speaker with a display for video calls and more involved smart home controls (and can live with Amazon's data collection policies). There are deals on the more traditional Echo and Echo Dot speakers, too, though the discounts aren't as steep, relatively speaking, as with the other gadgets here.

If you have no interest in bringing Amazon further into your home, though, we also have deals on Roku's Streaming Stick+, several Bluetooth speakers and USB-C chargers, Fitbit trackers, a rare drop on security keys from Yubico, and much more. Have a look at the full list below.
