This may or may not be your last reminder that Mother's Day is this Sunday, May 14. Whatever you have planned for the occasion, whether it’s whipping up brunch or enjoying fun activities with the fam, you'll want to put aside some time to tune into Amazon's Mother's Day deals on all of its most popular devices. Featuring an up to 50 percent discount from now through May 15—including on the 3rd generation Echo Dot—this sale is the perfect excuse to upgrade your home tech devices or finally try that product you’ve been eyeing.

Most importantly, if you're strapped for last-minute Mother's Day gifts, this is an excellent opportunity to buy your mama really impressive tech gadgets that won't break the bank. Better yet, many of them will arrive in one day with a Prime membership. But even if it can’t get to mom by Sunday, she’ll agree the gift was worth the delayed gratification, especially if there’s a Kindle involved.

So without further ado, here are seven devices worth buying for yourself and/or your mom while they're on sale.

55 Mother’s Day Gifts on Amazon She'll Never Guess You Bought Last Minute


If you or your mama can’t go anywhere without packing a page-turner, trust us when we say that the Kindle Paperwhite is a bookworm’s best friend. Having a Kindle is like having more than 1,000 books on hand at all times, in one super lightweight device that fits right into your tote. Also, the 300 ppi glare-free display and adjustable warm light for nighttime reading will be extra gentle on the eyes. Order it now to get it in the mail in one day!

Binging The Real Housewives of New Jersey on Bravo, Firefly Lane on Netflix and A Small Light on Hulu? You're not the only one, which is why we're not wasting any time scooping up this Fire TV stick that more than 100,000 reviewers have raved about. Buyers love how it "delivers an immersive viewing experience that is second to none" and how great it is "for those of us who can't afford today's 'smart' TV." It essentially organizes your apps into one display hub, so you can stream like a pro. And you'll get a kick out of the Amazon Alexa function, which allows you to search and launch your favorite titles, channels and music across several networks.

This Amazon Echo Dot has your mama's name all over it. She'll love how perfectly it fits on a nightstand, doubling as an alarm clock and a speaker (so don't be surprised to find her blasting her favorite songs and setting an alarm for her morning walk in one breath). With audio improvements from previous Echo Dots, including clearer vocals, deeper bass and vibrant sound quality, it’s a great upgrade for someone who’s already a tried-and-true fan of the product. Plus, the new Eero Wi-Fi extender even helps extend her network's range (bye-bye household dead zones!).

PureWow's VP of Editorial, Candace Davison, reviewed the Ring Video Doorbell 3 for us and we couldn't be more grateful. Learning that it gave her so much peace of mind to know who’s at her door at any given time made us run out to get one for our moms. Overprotective? Maybe. Savvy? Definitely. The Ring product notifies her on the phone when it detects motion in real-time, so she can immediately see who is there and talk to them without opening the door. She may need a bit of assistance installing it, though, but you won't mind. It's Mother's Day, after all!

If she’s still using her old Walkman (#TBT), bring mom into the 21st century with these coveted Amazon Echo Buds. She may have to get used to them being wireless, but even she will come to appreciate the beauty of a genuinely hands-free experience when listening to songs and podcasts. Plus, they last up to five hours on a full charge for the traveling mom. Other features like sweat resistance and the ability to contour to her ear for maximum comfort are just the icing on the cake.

Get ready to access your calendar and to-do list, watch TV and movies, manage your smart home and display family photos, all with the Echo Show 15. With a 15.6-inch touchscreen, adaptive color display and sleek, wall-mountable design, this little piece of tech will come in handy for keeping up with all those spring and summer events you have coming up. In that case, it wouldn't be a bad idea to spring on one for your mom too—you know how much she loves showing off the grandkids!

“Go big or go home” is a motto we can get behind for Mother’s Day. And gifting her a 50-inch Amazon Fire TV is certainly big! Don't get us started on the 4K picture quality and built-in microphone with Amazon Alexa. Not only will her favorite soap operas look crystal clear (a huge bonus in and of itself), but she can also use her voice to control the TV from across the room while making dinner. You already knew you were the favorite child, but this goodie will secure the throne.
