While the 2021 edition of Amazon’s Kindle Paperwhite—a PCMag Editors’ Choice pick—doesn’t stray far from its popular predecessor, it adds a roomier screen for an even better reading experience, and it’s now $40 off.
Still a smooth, black, matte device, the Paperwhite measures 6.8 by 4.9 by 0.3 inches (HWD) and weighs 7.2 ounces. The 6.8-inch, 300ppi E Ink Carta display is also 10% brighter, and the entire gadget still carries an IPX8 rating. Like the Oasis, users can tap into color-changing front lights that go from blue-white to yellow using two sliders. Amazon includes a USB-C port and power cable, and support for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth (for listening to audiobooks).
If your ebook reader needs an upgrade, is now just $99.99—$40 off the $139.99 retail price.

Philips Hue LightStrip Plus
The Philips Hue LightStrip Plus is not your average smart bulb. The extendable plastic strip of LEDs works as groovy accent lighting beneath a cabinet, above a bookshelf, or almost anywhere in your home. The initial strip comes in at a lengthy 78.7 inches (6.5 feet), and can be extended with 40-inch expansion strips (sold separately) to reach a total 32 feet. Users may also cut it to fit smaller spaces (at which point it cannot be lengthened). The LightStrip Plus, rated IP20, can withstand humidity but is not waterproof, so keep it away from the sink or tub. Philips claims it should last for 20,000 hours of light—about two years of continuous use, or 20 years if turned on for three hours a day, seven days a week. The strip is capable of emitting cool or warm light from 2,000K to 6,500K. But don’t forget: You’ll need a hub to control it wirelessly using the Philips Hue mobile app.
