Amazon's Prime Day is one of the best opportunities for shoppers to score great deals on Thunderbolt docks and their cousins, USB-C hubs. I should know -- I've been tracking them for years now. Docking stations and hubs offer an opportunity to connect more peripherals to your desk without breaking the bank. Amazon has been the traditional home of the best deals in both categories, year round, which makes it an even more ideal place to shop during Prime Day -- and before.

Most tech costs a fair chunk of change (the PS5 Pro and iPad Pro jump to mind), but some smaller electronics are (almost) as exciting. Now that Cyber Monday is here, we've found dozens of deals on inexpensive electronics and accessories that cost less than 50. Unlike other lists you may find today, this one is made up of items we've tested, reviewed or otherwise recommend in our buying and gift guides -- so we think they're actually worth your money. Amazon Echo Pop (2023) for 18 ( 22 off): Amazon's smallest Echo will fit in any room in your home, so Alexa can add things to your shopping list, set a timer, or answer questions (like "What's a bomb cyclone?" or "Who is Penelope Cruz married to?") from anywhere. Anker Nano Charger 30W USB-C for 13 ( 7 off): This compact 30-watt wall charger is smaller than others of its wattage and can speedily juice up an iPhone or Android handset. Anker is one of Engadget's most recommended accessory brands and this is the model we picked for our fast charger guide. Get the same deal at Anker with an auto-applied code. Anker Nano power bank with built-in USB-C connector for 16 ( 4 off): It's the size of an old-timey lipstick case but packs enough juice (and its own USB-C plug) to get a dying smartphone back in service with at least a half charge.

The expensive tech gets all the attention -- thousand-dollar phones and 500 tablets. But the supporting players, the cables and batteries and chargers that make those devices work properly, are just as important. Right now for Black Friday, many of those smaller gadgets are on sale for less than 50 even after the day has passed. And there are even some standalone devices like earbuds and smart speakers that fall well below the threshold. We've tested scads of these smaller, less expensive tech for Engadget buying guides, including the best power banks, iPad accessories, smart plugs and microSD cards. Here, we've gathered up all the Black Friday tech deals under 50 that you can still get on gadgets we recommend. Amazon Echo Pop (2023) for 18 ( 22 off): Amazon's smallest Echo will fit in any room in your home, so Alexa can add things to your shopping list, set a timer, or answer questions (like "What's a bomb cyclone?" or "Who is Penelope Cruz married to?") from anywhere.

When it comes to new tech, 50 doesn't get you a lot-- except perhaps during Black Friday sales. Surprisingly, quite a few of the smaller electronics and accessories we recommend are currently on sale right now for less than 50. These deals include picks from our guides to accessories guides, portable batteries, budget earbuds and smart speakers. Everything on this list has earned the Engadget nod of approval -- like Anker's Nano charger ( 13), Belkin's AirTag holder ( 15) and PopSocket phone grips ( 15). These picks come from stuff we tested for our reviews and buying guides or from personal use and brands we know to be reputable -- so you don't have to guess whether these Black Friday tech deals are worth your (less than) 50.
