  • Great Prime Day deal: Google Pixel 7a for $249, down from $499

    An Amazon Prime Day deal has discounted the Google Pixel 7a down to a record-low price. The phone, which only launched last year, typically costs $500 but is available now for half off at $250. Even at its full price, the Google Pixel 7a is a well-rounded device that balances cost and power. At half off, it’s worth looking at if you have an older (or lower-end) Android phone and want features and specs that won’t be dramatically inferior to many flagship handsets.

  • Great Prime Day deal: Dyson Airwrap bundle for $550, down from $675

    This bundle with the Dyson Airwrap is down to the best price we've ever seen. In addition to the Airwrap itself and its storage case, the bundle includes six attachments: two long barrels, three brushes and the Coanda smoothing dryer, plus a filter cleaning brush, a detangling comb and another storage bag. That's enough to achieve a bunch of different hairstyles with one tool, and you get a couple of ways to store the machine when you're not using it or when you need to travel with it.

  • The best Prime Day deals under $50

    Yes, there are good Prime Day deals under $50 — even in the tech category. Plenty of your favorite gadgets come in at $50 or less normally, but Prime Day typically means you can grab them on sale for notably low prices. A standout this year is the Roku Streaming Stick 4K for $29.

  • The best Prime Day deals from Walmart, Target Best Buy and more

    If you’re feeling left out because you’re not a Prime subscriber, fear not. Plenty of other retailers including Walmart and Target have their own sales to compete with the likes of Amazon. The big secret? Many of the best Prime Day deals are being matched at other stores, so you can avoid the Prime requirement all together and still save money if you’re willing to shop elsewhere.

  • Great Prime Day deal: Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones for $298, down from $400

    These over-ear headphones have all the bells and whistles you could ask for, including a fantastic noise cancellation system, a new audio processor, multipoint connections, touch controls, voice controls and more. There are plenty of reasons why these cans topped our list of the best wireless Bluetooth headphones.

  • Great Prime Day deal: Anker MagGo Power Bank 10K for $63, down from $90

    Anker's MagGo Power Bank is our choice for the best MagSafe-compatible power bank on the market. It was one of the earliest Qi2-certified devices to hit shelves, and this early 2024 model is impressive, to say the least. The 10,000mAh and 15W capacities provide you with fast wireless charging. The power bank can bring an iPhone 15 from near-dead to half-charged in just 45 minutes — a feat some of our other top contenders have taken twice as long to do.

  • Great Prime Day deal: Dyson V15 Detect Plus for $570, down from $750

    This is the variation of the model that took home the top prize in our list of the best cordless vacuums, so we recommend it for those looking for a high-grade cleaning appliance. The suction power on this thing is unreal, particularly for a cordless cleaner.

    During our testing, we found that we rarely had to go over the same spot twice when using the vacuum. It’s also relatively lightweight, making it easy to haul up the stairs for multi-floor cleaning tasks. The battery life is on-point, too, allowing for 60 minutes of runtime before requiring a charge.

  • The best Prime Day deals on headphones and earbuds

    Plenty of our favorite headphones and earbuds have dropped to record-low prices for Prime Day this year. Prime Day deals include discounts on the AirPods Max, Sony's WH-1000XM5 headphones, Google Pixel Buds Pro and more; if you’ve wanted a new pair, or need to replace an aging set, don’t miss out on these deals.

  • Great Prime Day deal: Apple AirTag for $24, down from $29

    The Apple AirTag is our pick for a Bluetooth tracker for iPhone users. It taps into Apple’s vast Find My network to track down missing items, calling on nearby iPhones to anonymously ping and triangulate the position. Right now a single tag is going for $24 instead of the $29 list price, which is one of the best Prime Day deals under $25 for this year.

  • The best Prime Day kitchen tech deals we could find

    Whether you’re looking to buy your first air fryer or you want to dabble in the world of at-home sous vide, Prime Day deals can make it more affordable to upgrade your kitchen setup. This year, we found a slew of deals on kitchen tech we’ve used and loved recently.

  • Great Prime Day deal: Apple 10th-gen iPad for $299, down from $349

  • The best Prime Day Apple deals on Apple Watch, iPads, AirPods, and more

    Prime Day Apple deals can be hit or miss. They’re often unpredictable, and it’s not uncommon to see discounts on certain models and colorways, rather than across the board. This year, AirPods, Apple Watches and iPads are included among the best Prime Day Apple deals.

  • Great Prime Day deal: Amazon Echo Dot for $25, down from $50

    Amazon’s smallest smart speaker, the Echo Dot, has dropped to $25 for Prime Day. It’s one of the best smart speakers you can get right now thanks to its compact design, physical button controls that compliment voice commands and its solid sound quality for its size.

  • Great Prime Day deal: LEGO Star Wars Luke Skywalker's X-Wing Fighter for $35, down from $50

    This Lego kit, which is recommended for builders aged nine and above, has 474 pieces so it should keep you and/or (pun not intended) your kids busy for a while. The X-Wing has a retractable landing gear and a pair of spring-loaded shooters. You can convert the wings to attack position with the press of a button. The kit comes with Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia and General Dodonna minifigures that you can place in the cockpit, while R2-D2 has his very own spot on board.

  • Great Prime Day deal: All of the best Prime Day deals on Anker charging gear we could find

    As to be expected, Anker accessories have been deeply discounted in Prime Day deals. Everything from power banks to USB-C adapters to wireless chargers is on sale for the shopping event, with many of devices down to record-low prices. In addition to charging gear, a bunch of other Anker gadgets have been discounted as well. Key among them are some of our favorite robot vacuums and portable speakers.

  • The best Prime Day Kindle deals for 2024

    Kindles are some of the best ereaders you can get. Amazon has discounted most models for Prime Day; you can pick up the base Kindle for only $85 right now.

  • Great Prime Day deal: Apple Watch Series 9 for $280, down from $339

  • The best Prime Day SSD deals, and discounts on microSD cards and other storage gear

    It’s always a smart idea to wait for big sale events like Amazon Prime Day to stock up on the essentials (if you can), and that includes extra storage for your laptop, camera, tablet and other gear. This year, plenty of top-notch SSDs, microSD cards and other storage gadgets are on sale for Prime Day — so if you needed a few extra memory cards or a new portable SSD to store important documents and photos for the long haul, now’s the time to buy.

  • The best Prime Day deals on laptops you can get

    Buying a laptop on Amazon can feel a little limiting. You’ll only find pre-configured models on Amazon, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but it means you have only a few options when it comes to things like storage and RAM. We always recommend going straight to the manufacturer if you really want to spec-out your next machine — but for those who don’t mind working within constraints, Prime Day deals include a bunch of good laptop discounts.

  • Great Prime Day deal: Prime Day deals discount the Google Pixel 8a to $449

  • The best Prime Day robot vacuum deals for 2024

    If you don’t have to pay full price for a robot vacuum, don’t. Amazon Prime Day is a great opportunity to pick up your first robot vacuum, or upgrade to a newer machine (like one with mopping capabilities or a self-emptying base).

  • The best Prime Day TV deals on sets from Samsung, LG, Hisense and others

    Usually the best times of the year to buy a new TV on sale (at least in the US) are around Black Friday and right before the Super Bowl. But Amazon Prime Day hasn’t shied away from TV deals — there are some decent discounts on Samsung, LG and TCL sets this year.

  • The best Prime Day deals on AirPods that you can get this year

    Decent deals on AirPods pop up throughout the year, but you’re almost guaranteed to get the lowest price around Amazon Prime Day, or during the holiday shopping season. Most AirPod models are on sale for Prime Day this year.

A four-pack of Apple AirTags sell for $99 at full price, though they frequently sell for $80. Right now for Prime Day, they’re down to $75. We think these are the best Bluetooth trackers you can buy if you’re an iPhone user. They rely on Apple’s vast Find My network that calls on every nearby iPhone to anonymously pinpoint an AirTag’s location. We found their locating features to be eerily accurate.

$75 at Amazon

The Apple Watch Series 9 has been discounted to $280 for Prime Day. The Series 9 adds an upgraded SiP, on-device Siri processing and a handy Double Tap gesture feature that makes it easier to interact with the Watch’s UI even when you can’t tap its touchscreen.

We consider the Series 9 to be the best smartwatch available today, period, and it's a no-brainer accessory for iPhone owners. If you want to spend less and get most of the code features found here, you should consider the more affordable Apple Watch SE.

$280 at Amazon

Apple’s AirPods Pro have dropped to $169 for Prime Day. They have excellent ANC, good sound quality with spatial audio support and hands-free Siri access. The latest model has a wireless charging case with a USB-C port and MagSafe compatibility.

The Pros are the best pair of wireless earbuds that Apple sells and one of our top picks overall. They'll be hard to beat if you live in the Apple ecosystem and appreciate the conveniences provided by the buit-in H1 chip.

The AirPods Max are down to a new low of $395, which is roughly $85 off their average street price on Amazon in recent months and $154 off Apple’s list price.

We gave this pair a review score of 84 when it arrived way back in December 2020. Despite its age, the Max remains one of the more premium sets of wireless headphones you can buy. It sounds impressively detailed and balanced, its aluminum frame looks and feels high-end and its ANC is still among the strongest on the market. Battery life is OK at roughly 20 hours per charge, and its Apple-Watch-style digital crown is more responsive than typical touch controls. Most (but not all) of the usual AirPods features are still here, too, from hands-free Siri to Find My tracking to faster pairing and device switching with other Apple hardware. The metal design is fairly hefty, however, and it weirdly lacks a power button, instead relying on a flimsy “case” to enter a low-power mode. You’ll still need to be an Apple loyalist to get the most out of it. But with this discount, it's much more competitive.

It’s worth noting that we may see a revised AirPods Max by the end of 2024, according to past reports from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, possibly around the launch of the next iPhone. That said, the new model isn’t expected to be a massive overhaul: Gurman says the only major change will be a swap to USB-C for charging and wired playback. The current set uses Lightning. If you can live with that, it's still worth considering at this price.

$395 at Amazon

The 10th-gen iPad has dropped to $299 for Prime Day. It’s the best iPad for those on a budget thanks to its modern design, USB-C charging, solid battery life and solid performance for the price. It’s even compatible with an optional folio keyboard if you want to turn it into a productivity machine.

While we recommend the latest iPad Air for most people it's hard to beat the value of the 10th-gen model, especially when you can snag it on sale like this.

$299 at Amazon

Amazon’s smallest smart speaker, the Echo Dot, has dropped to $25 for Prime Day. It’s one of the best smart speakers you can get right now thanks to its compact design, physical button controls that compliment voice commands and its solid sound quality for its size.

The Kids version is also on sale for $28 for this sale.

$25 at Amazon

The Echo Show 8 has dropped to $85 for Prime Day. This is our current top pick for the best smart display with Amazon’s Alexa thanks in part to its 8-inch touchscreen, 13MP camera that supports auto-framing for better video chats and its built-in Zigbee smart home hub.

The 2023 model supports Visual ID, which will show personalized information on the device’s display depending on who’s using it, and video streaming from Netflix, Hulu, Prime Video and other services.

$85 at Amazon

The base Kindle is on sale for $85 for Prime Day. It’s our top pick for the best budget ereader out there, and it’s an even better value when you can snag it on discount. In addition to giving you access to Amazon’s vast Kindle ebook library, the entry-level Kindle has a good number of page customization options (for text size, font, margins, etc) and Audible integration, which lets you listen to Audible audiobooks if you have a pair of Bluetooth headphones.

$85 at Amazon

The Sony WH-1000XM5 headphones are on sale for $298 right now. They excel thanks to their excellent sound quality and ANC, improved design, 30-hour battery life and handy extra features like multi-device connectivity and Speak to Chat.

These are our top pick for the best headphones on the market today — it doesn't get much better than the XM5. If you're on a tight budget and still want the core features in these cans, consider the previous version, the Sony WH-1000XM4.

The Anker Soundcore Space A40 is back down to $49, which is a deal we’ve seen a few times in recent months but still ties an all-time low. The pair has typically sold for $59 for most of 2024. The Space A40 tops our guide to the best budget wireless earbuds due to its impressive ANC, wireless charging and multi-device pairing support, comfy fit and 8-10 hours of battery life. You can get more detailed audio quality for more money, but the A40’s warm sound should please most by default, and you can customize the profile through a helpful companion app. The main trade-offs are its mediocre call quality and lack of wear detection; the latter means your music won’t auto-pause when you remove an earbud.

$49 at Amazon

Amazon Prime Day is finally here and you can pick up a pair of Google Pixel Buds Pro earbuds for just $120 as part of the Prime Day deals. That’s a discount of $80 and a record-low price for the well-reviewed buds.

The Pixel Buds Pro made our list of the best wireless earbuds for a number of reasons. First and foremost, we love the sound. These earbuds offer deep and punchy bass, which is a rarity with this class of device. They also have decent ANC, reliable touch controls and wireless charging. There are also some added convenience features for those already tied to the Android and Pixel ecosystems.

$120 at Amazon

You can pick up the Beats Fit Pro earbuds for just $150 right now during the Prime Day sale. These are our top picks for the best headphones for running thanks to their comfortable, IPX4 design, great sound quality with adaptive EQ, good ANC and transparency mode and solid battery life.

$150 at Amazon

The Sony WF-1000XM5 earbuds have been discounted to $228 for Prime Day. The XM5 earbuds stand out thanks to their improved design, good sound quality, impressive ANC and special features like adaptive sound and Speak to Chat.

These are the best true wireless earbuds to get at the moment. Sony packs in more features here than most other companies do in their flagship offerings, and these buds are representative of that.

$228 at Amazon

The Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds are on sale for $229 right now. Bose has consistently provided the best wireless earbuds for noise cancellation, and the QC Ultra are the latest and our top pick at the moment. In addition to stellar ANC, these buds support spatial audio, gesture controls for volume adjustment and a formidable battery life.
