Roku Streaming Stick Plus
The Streaming Stick Plus is the best Roku for most people (read our Roku Guide to learn more). It has excellent Wi-Fi reception and plugs right into an HDMI port on your TV. Like other Roku products, the apps aren’t always beautifully designed, but they are here (Netflix, Amazon, HBO, all of them), and the main interface lets you search for shows across all of your subscriptions at once. You can even add or delete the apps you don’t need on your homepage, for a more streamlined look.

1More Stylish True Wireless
These slick and comfy earbuds have been a sleeper hit here at the WIRED office. They have better battery life than most other wireless buds (6.5 hours) and about the best sound you’ll get without paying more than $200. It’s the all-around best value for a high-quality and wirefree listening experience you’ll find. You can check out our best wirefree earbuds guide for more options.

Nintendo Switch Lite
This is the console system for the gamer on the go. It doesn’t dock to play on a TV, as the original Switch does, but it’s also a $100 cheaper and lighter than its big sibling. As you might expect, it’s been made with mobility in mind. The matte exterior feels great to hold, and it gets 4 to 6 hours of battery life. Oh, it can also play just about every Switch game available. Read the review here.
