Google brought its considerable camera prowess down to the affordable phone market. It also has good battery life too, a sore point on the new Pixel 4, and its polycarbonate body won't shatter at the first drop. Because it's a Pixel phone, it will get software and security updates directly from Google (the maker of the Android operating system) for three years. + +####Google Pixel 4 for $669 ($130 off) +*[Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07YMNLXL3/?tag=w050b-20){: rel=nofollow}* + +The latest Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL ([8/10, WIRED Recommends](https://www.wired.com/review/google-pixel-4-and-pixel-4-xl/)) are some of our favorite Android phones because of their simple but smart software, excellent cameras, and Google's commitment to delivering timely updates. Their biggest flaw is battery life, which will barely get through a full day of use, if at all. + + +####Sonos One Speaker for $170 ($30 off) +*[Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/Sonos-One-Gen-Controlled-Built/dp/B07NJPXRBC/?tag=w050b-20){: rel=nofollow}* + +Sonos speakers are some of the best functioning and easiest-to-set-up smart speakers you'll find, but they can be a bit spendy. If you've been thinking about starting your system, today is a good day, as you can get $50 off the Play:One and [$40 off the One SL](https://fave.co/2LdacUj){: rel=nofollow} (which lacks the microphone of the One, but has the same great multiroom music functionality). + + +####Roku Streaming Stick Plus for $44 ($15 off) +*[Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/Roku-Streaming-Stick-HDR-Streaming-Long-range/dp/B075XLWML4/?tag=w050b-20){: rel=nofollow}*, *[Walmart ($49)](https://goto.walmart.com/c/1305164/565706/9383?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walmart.com%2Fip%2FRoku-Streaming-Stick-4K-Media-Player%2F300825724&subid1=bestblackfridaydeals2019){: rel=nofollow}* + +This is the [best Roku](https://www.wired.com/gallery/how-to-pick-the-right-roku/) for the most people. It works with HD or 4K HDR televisions and can connect to dual-band Wi-Fi networks. You may have to check to make sure your HDMI ports are lined up correctly for it to plug in properly, since it plugs into a second USB port for power. + +##Cameras + +####Sony Alpha A7 II Mirrorless Camera with 28-70mm lens for $998 ($600 off) + +*[B&H Photo](https://fave.co/34n3naq){: rel=nofollow}*, *[Adorama](https://fave.co/2qXhBA2){: rel=nofollow}* + +This Sony A7 II kit deal is one of the best we've seen this holiday. You get a great camera (albeit one that's a few years old) with one of the best kit lenses I've used. No, it's not a fast prime, but it's better than you think. If you've been looking to get into the full-frame mirrorless camera system, you'd be hard-pressed to find a cheaper way to do it. + +####Olympus Tough TG-6 Waterproof Camera for $349 ($100 off) + +*[Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/Olympus-Tough-TG-6-Waterproof-Camera/dp/B07RC8HPHL/?tag=w050b-20){: rel=nofollow}*, *[B&H Photo](https://fave.co/2qJAYwF){: rel=nofollow}*, *[Best Buy](https://bestbuy.7tiv.net/c/1305164/614286/10014?u=https://www.bestbuy.com/site/olympus-tough-tg-6-12-0-megapixel-water-resistant-digital-camera-red/6351697.p?skuId=6351697&subid1=bestblackfridaydeals2019){: rel=nofollow}*, *[Walmart](https://goto.walmart.com/c/1305164/565706/9383?u=https://www.walmart.com/ip/Olympus-Tough-TG-6-Compact-Camera-Red/795602545){: rel=nofollow}* + +The Olympus TG-6 is a rugged little camera that soars where smartphones crash ([8/10, WIRED Recommends](https://www.wired.com/review/olympus-tough-tg-6/)). It offers excellent image quality for a small camera (complete with support for RAW images), and it's nearly indestructible. If you want a camera that's a GoPro-style, go-anywhere machine, but retains the lens and sensor quality of a point and shoot, the TG-6 is your best bet. + +####GoPro Hero 8 Black for $349 ($50 off) +*[Amazon (with SD card)](https://www.amazon.com/GoPro-HERO8-Elite-X-microSDHC-Bundle/dp/B07Y13ZWQQ/?tag=w050b-20){: rel=nofollow}*, *[Walmart](https://goto.walmart.com/c/1305164/565706/9383?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.walmart.com%2Fip%2FGoPro-HERO8-Black%2F769593864&subid1=blackfridayphotodeals2019){: rel=nofollow}*, *[Best Buy](https://bestbuy.7tiv.net/c/1305164/614286/10014?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bestbuy.com%2Fsite%2Fgopro-hero8-black-4k-waterproof-action-camera-black%2F6365359.p%3FskuId%3D6365359&subid1=blackfridayphotodeals2019){: rel=nofollow}*, *[Target](https://fave.co/2rIGAXY){: rel=nofollow}* + +The GoPro Hero 8 Black ([8/10, WIRED Recommends](https://www.wired.com/review/go-pro-hero-8-black/)) brings some major changes to the Hero line. You no longer have to deal with a mounting cage, and some new add-ons make for easier vlogging. But the real highlight is the new customizable menu system, which simplifies using the camera in extreme conditions. + +####Canon PowerShot G9 X Mark II for $399 ($80 off) + +*[B&H Photo](https://fave.co/2OhsMfT){: rel=nofollow}*, *[Best Buy](https://bestbuy.7tiv.net/c/1305164/614286/10014?u=https://www.bestbuy.com/site/canon-powershot-g9-x-mark-ii-20-1-megapixel-digital-camera-black/5715504.p?skuId=5715504){: rel=nofollow}* + +This little Canon hits the sweet spot for price, features, and image quality ([8/10, WIRED Recommends](https://www.wired.com/review/review-canon-powershot-g7-x-mark-ii/)).

The front screen makes filming yourself easier, and the frame rates for video match what you get out of DJI's drones, saving you some headaches in postproduction if you're combining drone and handheld footage. + +##Laptops/Tablets + +####Surface Pro 7—i5, 8 GB RAM, 128 GB—With Type Cover for $799 ($230 off) + +*[Microsoft](https://fave.co/2rLA4Q8){: rel=nofollow}* + +The Surface Pro 7 is one of our favorite laptop-tablet hybrids ([8/10, WIRED Recommends](https://www.wired.com/review/microsoft-surface-pro-7-2019/)). There are cheaper Surfaces, but this is a good price on the best hybrid model. Be sure to grab the Surface pen as well. + +####HP Pavilion 15-Inch Laptop 15Z Touch—i7, 8 GB RAM—for $560 ($450 off) + +*[HP](https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=7168&awinaffid=632530&clickref=deals1221&p=%5B%5Bhttps%253A%252F%252Fstore.hp.com%252Fus%252Fen%252Fpdp%252Fhp-pavilion-laptop-15t-5rj34av-1%5D%5D){: rel=nofollow}* + +This is a suspiciously awesome deal on a laptop that should do just about anything most of you want to do, outside heavy video editing or gaming.

The touchscreen is noticeably clearer (300 pixels per inch vs. 167 for the standard) and the light is better. The Paperwhite is also rated IPX8, meaning it can sit in 2 meters of water for two hours.

The bigger news is the new USB-C charging. The new "Show Mode" for the Fire HD 10 turns the tablet into an Echo-like device. Set your HD 10 on a stand (we like the [official magnetic standing case](https://www.amazon.com/Amazon-Fire-HD-10-Tablet-Case/dp/B07RS8J6QP/){: rel=nofollow}) and it essentially becomes an Echo Show. + +- **[Fire HD 8 for $50 ($30 off)](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0794RHPZD/){: rel=nofollow}:** The Fire HD 8 is the 10's travel-friendly sibling.
