Updated 4:30AM ET June 26: We've added new Prime Day deals under $30 from Cync, TP-Link, and Fintie.

This is one of WIRED editor Kat Merck’s top handheld fan picks. It's small (and cheap) but mighty, with two blades that produce a strong breeze at 472 feet per minute and a quiet noise level (44 d B on low), and it’s lightweight at only 4 ounces. Plus, it's basically a camping or outdoor adventure Swiss Army knife, doubling as a flashlight and portable power bank. At only $12, you'll be happy you carried this during your next summer adventure.

Every winter, my lips looked like sad, shriveled worms that had been left out to dry on the sidewalk after a rainstorm. Even after religiously applying lip balm every hour, my lips would get cracked and flaky without fail every winter. That is, until I discovered this lip mask from Laneige. I absolutely love Langeige's stuff, but it's often much pricier than I'm willing to pay for a luxe lip balm or facial lotion. You leave this thick mask of murumuru butter and vitamin C on while you sleep for smooth lips come morning. Right now it's on sale for $17, which is the lowest we've ever seen it.

Whether you want to sleep soundly or save your eardrums during the next concert you attend, we recommend everyone have a few earplugs on hand to block out the noise. We love these earplugs from Loop because they’re squishy, soft, and malleable to any type of ear shape. Plus, we love the shape of these silicone earplugs. They fit snugly in your ear and entirely flush with your head, making them the most comfortable earplugs for sleeping. They come with four different sized washable ear tips in a few colorways to match any fit.

If you're going on a trip and realize that you may need more organization, it's hard to beat a six-pack of Bagsmart's basic packing cubes. We appreciate the compression feature that packs the most into a tight space, the higher-end looks, the fine-mesh front cover for spotting contents at a glance, and convenient label windows to keep your set organized. Plus, Bagsmart offers 25 color and pattern options so you can keep things fly while you fly with color-coordinated luggage.

If your pet likes drinking from the faucet, a water fountain like this one is just what you need. This water fountain from Oneisall has a minimalist design with a stainless steel body and water spout that pours water into the reservoir, so it's easy for your cat to access water anytime. The fountain has a corded pump, so it's not as easy to clean as more expensive designs, but it's a reliable, affordable option (especially during Prime Day).

I’ve bought this cat toy for nearly every cat owner I know. And even after years, my cats are still entertained. It has three modes so cats never get bored: Normal, Active, and Interactive, and it shuts off automatically after a period of inactivity. It has a simple USB charger (but a charge lasts about six days), and a single button that controls everything. Plus, it comes with a replacement wand in case your cats are as rough-and-tumble as mine.

This is an alarm clock for the perpetual snoozer (me). When the alarm sounds, it propels itself on wheels and rolls away (or falls from whatever surface you put it on). Essentially, you’re forced to physically get out of bed to chase or find it and turn it off. This is one of the most successful alarms I tested because it made me physically move, which helped me wake up for the day.

This vibrating alarm clock is among the most-reviewed nontraditional alarm clocks on Amazon. The buzzer reaches up to 106 decibels, with a bed shaker that can be used separately or alongside the alarm. The vibrations provide a more subtle way to wake up by forgoing the jarring alarm sounds, and the escalating pattern of the buzzing helps ease the snoozer into wakefulness without feeling like you’re about to have a cardiac event.

Compact and affordable, with an IP66 rating, this security camera can be used indoors or out, though it must be plugged in. The large-ish image sensor enables color night vision. It also offers smart detection (people, pets, and vehicles), up to 2K resolution, and slightly laggy two-way audio. You can record locally on a micro SD card or subscribe for cloud storage. This versatile device also has a magnetic mount and tiny dual spotlights.—Simon Hill

This is the best essential oil diffuser we’ve tried. It’s simple and effective. Simply fill up the tank, add in your chosen essential oils, and choose a mist level. It’ll disperse droplets throughout the air, acting as both an air freshener and a humidifier. I also like the color-changing light, which is optional.—Louryn Strampe

I like everything I’ve tried from Bentgo, but this classic lunch box is my favorite. It’s composed of two parts—one container that’s divided and one that isn’t. The lid cleverly stores a plastic knife, spoon, and fork, and there’s a strap to hold the whole thing together. It’s dishwasher- and microwave-safe. I love taking it to the beach when I just need to have a little snack around.—Louryn Strampe

This is a magnetic kickstand wallet for i Phones that can be set at three angles, depending on what you need: one for scrolling, one for streaming media, and one for video conferencing. We like that the case feels sturdy enough to stand in different configurations without being too bulky. Although you sacrifice storage for this slim, lightweight design, plan on carrying only two cards in this one. Regularly $30, it's 20 percent off right now.

We named this the “easiest Mag Safe wallet to use” in our guide to the best for one simple reason: a slot on the side to push the cards out. Its ergonomic design makes it so that you never have to take it off the phone to access cards. Just give the side opening a little push with, and the cards easily slide out. Plus, it’s made of vegan leather with a few fun design options, making for one of the sturdiest we’ve tested at this affordable price point.

We think everyone should grab this simple, budget pick from Anker for an extra wireless charger to keep around the house. Its pad and stand have a rubbery finish to prevent slips, and tiny LED lights light up to signify when charging or errors occur. There’s no better convenience than just dropping your phone on a pad or stand before bed and waking up to a fully charged battery in the morning. No more fussing with cords and plug ins.

This is our favorite affordable i Phone 17 case because it looks simple and elegant (especially for its low price point). The teardown skin effect isn’t too or over-the-top or messy, and the buttons are very responsive and clicky. The raised edges around the screen and cameras prevent surface touching or scratching. If you don't want a custom case, it also comes in clear and other styles for even less. To top if off, the case is compatible with Mag Safe accessories for even easier charging.

We think this is one of the Best i Phone 16 Cases, even beating out Apple’s official cases. This case has a soft microfiber lining, a very functional Camera Control button, and several stylish colorways to choose from depending on your vibe.

If you’re planning to travel this summer—or just have limited power outlets—this is the best travel adapter, especially if you need to plug in a whole bunch of tech at once. This sturdy, compact plug adapter has a fixed design that stays put in the outlet, so you don’t have to worry about breakage while on the road. There are various versions (Type C, Type E/F, Type G), and this Type C model for Europe plugs into a single outlet to give you three US outlets, a USB-C port (15W), and two USB-A ports (12W).

If you need to run Ethernet cables, HDMI, or even just extension cords, but can’t go into or under the wall, cable raceways or trunking are a great way to hide ’em. You can get kits with various lengths of trunking with angled turns to run your cable. This trunking can also be painted to match your baseboard or walls, which really helps it blend in.—Simon Hill

This handy smart bulb can do a myriad of colors, comes with unique light shows in the app, and can even respond to music. It's the best smart bulb for a reason, and a two-pack is under $30 just for Prime Day.

Smart bulbs are a great addition to any home, especially if you have lamps or devices you want to control power to. This Tapo one is small, so it doesn't block nearby outlets, and is Matter certified to work with whatever smart home ecosystem you're a fan of.

If you're already a Kindle owner, it's a great time to stock up on some new accessories for your favorite e-reader. This shell-style Kindle case has a hard exterior to keep your Kindle's screen nice and safe, and a soft interior to ensure it won't be scratched by the case itself. It's usually around

My life was forever changed when I moved in with my roommate about 10 years ago and learned the joy of an electric kettle. I like that this kettle is stainless steel and plastic-free, with an internal plastic-free water level indicator and level markings. To work, all you have to do is push down the clear tab at the bottom, and the blue LED light automatically turns off when the water has boiled. With a simple press of the switch, you'll have boiled water in about four minutes—no more time wasted watching the pot.

Whether you’re training for a half marathon or battling a hangover, we love electrolyte powder for its ability to revive us with high carbohydrate and sugar levels. Plus, as we hit the dog days of summer, it’s essential to keep those electrolytes levels up to keep dehydration and exhaustion at bay while temps rise. It’s a good idea to pick up a discounted pack for the future—there are over twenty flavors and most are on sale right now.

Celsius is our favorite energy drink, and the variety pack is my favorite kind of gamble. You’ll likely get flavors like Sparkling Orange and fizz-free Peach Mango, and if luck is on your side, you might even score Mango Passionfruit. It’s an assortment of fizzy and non-carbonated beverages, with 200 milligrams of caffeine—derived from guarana seed and green tea extracts—per can.

We on the WIRED Reviews team are bandwagoners when it comes to Kiwi knives. This brand has a cult following due to the fact its knives are cheap but have a thin, light blade that holds an edge just as well as pricier knives. Because this chef's knife is made of materials that are a little softer, it'll need to be sharpened more regularly to maintain its sharp edge. This simple knife works excellently for most small kitchen tasks, and we think it deserves a spot in most kitchens, especially at this uber-cheap price.
