A smart plug is great because it turns any regular appliance into a connected device without you having to buy expensive smart versions of everything: You don't need to spend $200 on a smart lamp when you can use a simple plug to make your $30 lamp respond to voice commands and set routines. But the good news is that during Black Friday, Amazon's smart plug goes down to $12 for Black Friday, which is less than its usual price of $24.

This is because it comes with two 8W JBL speakers with Dolby audio capabilities. The Plus model also comes with the T2 HDMI adapter, which allows you to access all your streaming services in one place and wirelessly, eliminating the need to connect a streaming device like Roku and control it through your phone.

The Floor One S5 vacuums and mops in a single pass and leaves floors clean and dry within minutes.

You boot Windows in under 10 seconds, fire up applications in an instant, and transfer large files between drives in a matter of seconds-not minutes.
