Content creation is a growing field, with more than 200 million people considered a professional content creator, according to 2022 research done by Linktree. With podcasts, TikTok, X and other social media platforms becoming a regular source for news and trends, many aspiring creators are picking up vlogging cameras and at-home studio equipment to share their passions with digital audiences.

While having a quality camera and laptop to cut and edit clips is essential, ensuring your audio is crisp and legible is just as important. To help you find budget-friendly equipment, Amazon is offering a Prime Day deal on a two-pack of popular lavalier microphones for just $19. That’s under $10 per mic, and the best deal we’re seeing online.

These wireless lav mics are being reduced on sale for 92% off for Prime Day. Each one comes designed with noise reduction technology to help capture your desired sound bytes and also uses a sponge windscreen to reduce noise from wind and plosives. You don’t have to worry about using an adapter or Bluetooth either — just plug in the included receiver into your device’s lightning port, turn on the portable mic and both devices will automatically pair.

Traditional mics are either attached to a stand or are handheld, which can create bulk and take up precious hand space if you’re reporting outside or doing interactive activities. Lav mics are mini microphones that typically can be clipped onto your clothes and capture audio just as well as a handheld version. With this two-pack, you can seamlessly capture audio of yourself and another person without having to share one mic — and as an added bonus, they’re also wireless.

More than 1,000 of the lav mics have already been purchased in the past month with reviewers gushing over the “crystal clear” sound quality while also noting it “blocks background noise pretty well” and can easily be hidden with clothes due to its small size.

Samsung’s Frame TV has become a luxurious piece of home decor, offering up entertainment and style to upgrade the regular television set (it even snagged a partnership with Disney). For those not looking to spend $1,000+ on a new TV though, TikTok has discovered the ultimate dupe that’s small-space friendly — and it’s currently on sale for 21% off during Prime Day 2024.

Amazon’s new Echo Show 15 is the latest in the brand’s Echo Show series, bringing a compact yet elegant way to watch TV and gather information at the touch of a button. TikTok has deemed the smart device to be the ultimate dupe, labelling it a “mini Frame TV” as it offers that framed photo aesthetic with all the benefits of a smart home device.

Similar to the Frame TV, TikTok users have show multiple ways to hang the Echo Show on the wall or use the included mount to rest it on your countertop. From there, the TikToker lists all the different advantages of the device, including its low price tag of $280.

Of course, at 15.6 inches, the Echo Show won’t completely replace a big-screen TV. And its HD screen won’t be the same as a 4K TV set. Still, for a mini Frame TV alternative, this is a solid bet.

What Is the Echo Show 15?

As the latest release for Echo Show devices, the Echo Show 15 looks to act as an in-home hub for all your entertainment and daily needs. Just like with other Echo Show devices, you can download streaming platforms including Paramount+, Hulu and Peacock, check your calendar, make a grocery list and even display artwork when the device isn’t in use.

Similar to the Frame TV, you can choose from a selection of frames to border the device and give it a more elegant touch.

Amazon’s Echo Show 15 has earned a 4.5 star rating overall, with more than 12,000 verified shoppers giving the device a full five-star review. All of the reviewers rave about the device’s features and how easy it is to setup and use. Case in point: in addition to acting as a smart home hub, you can watch TV or call your friends with just one device as well as create a to-do list to keep yourself productive.

One reviewer even raved over how “it doesn’t look off in our kitchen and can be mounted to the wall like a picture frame.” A great Frame TV alternative indeed.
