The best Amazon Prime Day tech deals you can get

Day one of Prime Day is underway, and we’ve got the skinny on which tech deals are worth your attention (and maybe your money).

Amazon’s annual Prime Day sale is here through July 17th, offering you a chance to save big on all kinds of gadgets and endless amounts of other junk you probably don’t need. And we’re here to help you separate the wheat from the chaff.

We’re surfacing discounts that are actually worth the time and attention of a voracious tech enthusiast — or just someone looking to at least save something on a nice little upgrade of an aging device.

Below, we’ve compiled our most comprehensive and wide-ranging roundup of Prime Day deals, which includes noise-canceling headphones, tablets, TVs, smart home accessories, and much more. Many of these deals require an Amazon Prime membership, though you can sign up for a free 30-day trial to access them (and always cancel later).

We try to pool together a little somethin’-somethin’ for everyone, but if you don’t find anything here that moves your needle, be sure to check out the full breadth of our coverage — including more specific posts covering categories like games, streaming devices, and a competing sales event that doesn’t require a subscription.

Prime Day deals spotlight

The best Prime Day deals on headphones and earbuds

• The Beats Studio Pro are down to $169.95 (a massive $180 off) at Amazon. The noise-canceling headphones may have a slightly outdated look (they look like many prior sets of Beats), but they’re an excellent value if you want flexibility across Android and iOS. Read our review.
• The Beats Studio Buds are still a serviceable pair of noise-canceling earbuds even if they’re a few years old since they’re just $79.95 ($70 off) at Amazon. Just keep in mind that the newer Studio Buds Plus have a variety of improvements and an even more fun seethrough design for $129.95 ($40 off).

• Google’s Pixel Buds A-Series are selling for their usual all-time low of $69 ($30 off) at Amazon. They’re a little long in the tooth for a midrange pair of wireless earbuds, but they remain a great low-cost option for Pixel phone owners. Read our review.
• Amazon is selling the Echo Buds with Active Noise Cancellation with a wired charging case for $34.99 ($85 off) or a wireless charging case for $44.99 ($95 off). It’s hard to beat the value of these ANC buds, even if other models have better noise cancellation. Read our review.
• Samsung’s Galaxy Buds FE may be a little no-frills since they lack features like wireless charging and multipoint connectivity; however, at just $69.99 ($30 off) at Amazon, they remain Samsung’s cheapest pair of noise-canceling earbuds. Read our review.

• The donut-shaped Sony LinkBuds are selling for $128 ($50 off) at Amazon, matching the best price we’ve seen on the open-style earbuds. Their unique design offers a comfy fit that allows outside noise in, helping keep you aware of your surroundings. Read our review.
• If you don’t need a cutting-edge pair of headphones, it’s hard to deny how good Sony’s WH-1000XM4 still sound, especially when you can grab them at Amazon for $198 ($150 off). Plus, unlike the newer XM5 that has usurped them, the older XM4 fold down for more convenient storage and travel. Read our review.
• Are you on a tighter budget but still want some noise-canceling headphones? Check out the Sony WH-CH720N, which are selling for $88 (about $61 off) at Amazon. They’re not as fancy as the pricier XM models, but they have up to 35 hours of battery life and weigh just 192 grams.

The best Prime Day deals on smart speakers and smart displays

• Amazon is selling its new Echo Spot for $44.99 ($35 off), exclusively for Prime members. The semicircular smart display supports customizable clock faces and Alexa, allowing you to set your alarm and pull up the weather with your voice.
• The fourth-gen Echo is on sale at Amazon for $54.99 ($45 off). The Prime-exclusive deal takes $35 off the spherical smart speaker, which can be easily used to control smart home features via Alexa or double as a Wi-Fi extender for Eero mesh systems. Read our review.

The best Prime Day deals on tablets and e-readers

• Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S9 features a lovely OLED screen, speedy performance, and some great speakers for a tablet. It’s currently on sale in several colors at Amazon with 128GB of storage and Wi-Fi starting at $599.99 ($200 off). Read our review.
• Amazon’s latest Kindle Paperwhite Kids is selling for $149.99 ($20 off) at Amazon right now. The kid-friendly editions are often the low-key best value for a Kindle when they go on sale, especially since this incarnation of the 6.8-inch e-reader doesn’t have ads and includes a case and an extended warranty. Just keep the parental lock features turned off if you plan on using it. Read our review.

The best Prime Day deals on TVs and streaming devices

The best Prime Day deals on phones

• The OnePlus 12R is selling for just $349.99 ($150 off) at Amazon. The midrange phone comes with a flagship-level processor and a large 6.78-inch display. It lacks wireless charging, but it makes up for it slightly with superfast 80W wired charging. Read our review.
• The Samsung A35 5G is $299.99 ($100 off) at Amazon. It’s got surprisingly good specs for a budget-friendly phone, including IP67 water and dust resistance usually reserved for much pricier handsets. Read our buying guide.
• Samsung’s Galaxy S23 FE is $449.99 ($150 off) at Amazon, which is a good deal for the colorful midrange phone (though it was $50 cheaper last holiday season).
