Best Buy ($279)
Who doesn’t want an iPad? It’s perfect for curling up in bed and watching a movie, and the larger screen is great for those who struggle with small fonts on phones. Plus, kids love iPads! This is the entry-level iPad (7/10, WIRED Recommends) and it’s currently on a great discount. It has a USB-C charging port, supports the first-gen Apple Pencil, and has a modern design compared to previous iPads.

Amazon ($480)
Not all tablets are iPads, and not all iPads are tablets. If you’re looking for an alternative to the iPad, this is my top recommendation for an Android tablet. It’s perfect for those who want something different from what everyone else has. And if you don’t mind getting last year’s model, you can get it at an even lower price (and it’s just as great).

Privacy? Who cares! These glasses may have cameras, but they’re the hottest item of the moment for sensible people. What can they do? You can listen to podcasts or music through the built-in speakers, or ask Meta’s as an expert Tech journalist.
