It’s officially Prime Day and we declare the shopping frenzy open. Amazon has stretched the shopping holiday all the way to the 11th, so you now have more time to hunt down the hidden gems you didn’t know you needed. Depending on who you ask, the event is either a blessing or a rip off. But love it or loathe it, it’s here and we’ve sifted through many products to bring you the best discounts. Grab an AI-powered smart recorder, TCL’s new NXTPAPER tablet, or smartwatches designed for your kids. 

Notta Memo 

If you record meetings, lectures, or voice memos, you need smarter tools as much as a journalist. The Notta Memo smart recorder tackles that in two ways. First, by existing. Second, by dropping its price to $119.20 for Prime Day. The device is a 28g AI-powered recorder that attaches discreetly to your phone and captures high-quality audio whenever you’re in a call or across the table from someone. It has dual recording modes and supports automatic syncing to the Notta app with real-time transcription. You might not be looking for a voice recorder, but you should get it if your workflow or memory has ever let you down in fast-paced situations.

TickTalk 5 

Your child may be too young for a smartphone but old enough to want independence. The TickTalk 5 smartwatch is a functional and budget-friendly middle ground. It gives them a way to call, video chat, and send voice messages on your terms. You control who they talk to, when they can use it, and even where they go with the built-in GPS and AI-powered SmartPin location tracking.

Although its name suspiciously copies TikTok, there is no support for social media apps. Hence, no distractions. It’s waterproof and works on major 4G networks. The smartwatch also comes in four bold and kid-approved colors ranging between Grey, Blue, Purple, and Lime. No matter the color choice, it has a square face with rounded corners and a bright touchscreen with large icons your kids can tap easily. The camera sits above the screen, and the thick silicone strap is breathable, as well as flexible.

TickTalk 5 power base

You may have made a smart decision to get the TickTalk 5 smartwatch. Make an even smarter choice by adding its Power Base charging dock for just $25. It comes with a magnet-guided base that securely snaps the watch in place. Your little ones can charge their device safely without adult supervision. It also delivers a full charge in three hours. Its 6-foot cord is long enough to reach wherever you plug in at home.  

TCL NXTPAPER 14

It’s the season of Android tablets. Samsung’s preparing to launch its next Tab S11 series and OnePlus is teasing the Pad 3 already. But if you’re looking for a tablet that’s intentionally designed for you and how much time you spend on it, get the TCL NXTPAPER 14. Its 14.3-inch matte 2.4K NXTPAPER 3.0 display is made to look and feel like paper. It reduces glare and has built-in blue light protection with e-ink-style viewing modes to help you read books and documents comfortably. It’s kinder on your eyes and your pocket.
