Fire TV, Echo and Kindle — the cheapest way to make a TV smart or a room voice-controlled.

Amazon's devices are sold to get you into its services, which is why they are consistently cheaper than rivals. For a buyer that is a genuine advantage: a Fire TV Stick turns any HDMI television into a full streaming smart TV for a fraction of the cost of replacing the set.

Echo speakers and displays put Alexa into a room for music, timers, smart-home control and calls. Kindle remains the best dedicated reading device, with e-ink that is far easier on the eyes than a phone or tablet and a battery measured in weeks.

Do check regional availability of individual services before buying, as streaming and Alexa feature support varies by country.
