Amazon Prime Day is in full swing, and the Amazon device deals prove it.

Echo devices from bedside clocks to full smart displays are on sale, including drops to record-low prices. One of the most notable is the Echo Show 11, which, at 32% off, sits $20 below the previous record low price. The Amazon Echo Dot Max also dropped to $64.99, which is $10 less than its last lowest price ever.

In other words, if you've been waiting to buy an Echo device, Prime Day is perhaps the absolute time to do it, with some possible Black Friday exceptions. Take advantage of these deals during Amazon's sitewide sale from now until June 26.

If you want to incorporate Alexa+, and its abilities to control your smart home and make meal plans and manage your calendar, the Echo Show 11 is designed to do exactly that. CNET, also owned by Ziff Davis, wrote that it's an especially great addition to a kitchen space. At 11 inches, it's big enough to actually be functional to watch or read on, but small enough that it's unobtrusive to the kitchen as a whole. It brings together all the best parts of previous Echo Show devices, and at $149.99, it is at the lowest price we've ever seen.

While testing tablets, I've learned a few things. Yes, iPads really are that good, but also, Android tablets are vastly underrated. With Prime Day running June 23 to 26, I'm focused on which tablets we're actually seeing on sale. Usually, iPads take big price cuts. Plus, I want to see premium Android tablets like the Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra reach new all-time low prices.

We will be regularly updating this guide with the best tablet deals, so keep checking back. You can also visit our Prime Day 2026 hub for all the latest updates and price drops or our live blog for the most up-to-date deals, news, and stock alerts.

The OnePlus Pad Go 2 surprised me when I tested it. For under $400, it's a speedy device that's as user-friendly as any iPad I've tested. Plus, the user interface is similar to iOS devices for those looking to switch over. I've been tracking the price on it since testing it, and it's rarely on sale, but right now you can grab the OnePlus Pad Go 2 ahead of Prime Day for just $319.99, saving you $80.

I test e-readers, and Ive found the best-ever Kindle deals to shop on Prime Day

Testing Kindles and e-readers is my job, but it's also my passion. I use my Kindle Paperwhite every day — unless I'm testing a new e-reader — and it's accompanied me on many a summer adventure. So, while I spend a lot of time convincing Mashable readers to buy my favorite e-readers, I also track the best times to buy an e-reader.

The best time to buy a Kindle is during a big sale, and with Amazon Prime Day 2026 running June 23 to 26, Kindles are back down to record-low prices. Plus, the new Kindle Scribes finally received price drops.

So TL;DR, if you're eyeing a Kindle, now is the time to buy. Here are the very best Kindle deals to shop during Prime Day.

My absolute favorite Prime Day Kindle deal is on the Amazon Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition. It's the e-reader that I use everyday, and it just hit a new all-time low price of $144.99. That makes it cheaper than the Paperwhite at full-price, but it also makes it the same price as the currently on sale Paperwhite without ads.

However, the Signature Edition is far more bang for your buck as it comes with twice the storage, an auto-adjusting front light, and wireless charging. It's an exceptional deal and the device's new lowest-price ever.

Kids Kindles

How do Kindle prices compare to previous sales?

Having tracked prices on Kindles for years, I have a pretty good sense of how much Amazon's e-readers cost during a sale. So how are Kindle deals this Prime Day?

We tracked the prices on the Kindle and Kindle Paperwhite over the past four sales to predict this years prices. Credit: Mashable

The Kindle Paperwhite's lowest price ever is $124.99, which the device dropped to during Black Friday, Prime Big Deals Days, and of course, last year's Prime Day. This year it's back down to $124.99. The Signature Edition on the other hand reached a new low of $144.99, just $20 more for a boatload of extra features.

The deal I'm most disappointed in is on the basic Kindle, which previously dropped to $79.99. This Prime Day, it's $5 more for $84.99. New deals this Prime Day include the latest Kindle Scribe and Scribe Colorsoft, both getting their first price drops since being released.

"If there's ever been a phone to make you ditch Apple, this is it." That's what Mashable's Timothy Beck Werth said in his Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra review. The phone even earned a Mashable Choice Award. With that kind of praise, of course we're excited to see it get a price cut at Amazon Prime Day.

The unlocked, 512GB model in all colorways is currently on sale for $1,134.99 (beating the previous lowest-ever price of $1,199.99). If you've been looking for a phone upgrade, this is quite an awesome deal to jump on. Werth also adds in the review, "for dedicated Android users — or anyone who loves big phones and hates Liquid Glass — the S26 Ultra is worth the investment."

For gamers looking to splash out on a fancy PC monitor upgrade, this deal on the Samsung 49-inch Odyssey G9 gaming monitor is definitely worth a look. Right now, it's dropped to its lowest-ever price at Amazon of $664.99 for Prime Day. Compared to its full price of $999.99, this is a great opportunity to save $335 on it.

It's quite an exciting upgrade, too. Boasting a 49-inch 1000R curved screen with QHD Ultra Wide 1440p resolution, you'll feel completely absorbed in every detail and color that pops up on its screen. It also has a 240Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time, so games will run smoothly and responsively.

Looking for a durable wearable to take on your many adventures this summer? The Galaxy Watch Ultra is the ultimate smartwatch upgrade to help you out. It's definitely worth a look, especially now that Amazon's knocked over $200 off its price tag, bringing it down from $649.99 to $434.99.

Alongside a variety of fitness features and health and sleep tracking features, our hands-on review from Kimberly Gedeon highlights that it's "designed for rugged adventurers." It can "handle temperatures between -4 and 131 degrees Fahrenheit, and it can tolerate deep-sea diving and other challenging environments." If it seems like the kind of fit for your lifestyle, this is an excellent time to scoop it up.

If you're on the hunt for a TV upgrade this summer, Prime Day is a great time to shop, and Samsung is already seeing some nice discounts on some of its TVs at Amazon. This Samsung 55-Inch Class S90F Smart TV is sitting on our list of the best TV deals during Prime Day, and for very good reason, as it's at its lowest-ever price at the retailer.

With a 55-Inch screen size, 4K resolution, and an OLED display, this Samsung TV is well worth upgrading to, especially while it's still on sale. You can even get one month of Xbox Game Pass with your purchase, which is a nice little bonus.

Prime Day is officially here. Amazon's annual flagship sale runs June 23 to 26, and plenty of Amazon devices are on sale. We always expect some of the best deals during Prime Day to be on Amazon's very own devices, and that's playing out no differently this year. Prices have been slashed on Amazon devices with discounts of up to 65% off.

Some of the biggest savings are on Amazon Fire TVs. Every size and a variety of brands are all on sale, saving you hundreds of dollars on 4K TVs. But there are also some big savings on home security and smart home devices, too.

SEE ALSO: Prime Day 2026: Live updates on Apple, Samsung, DJI, Kindle, and more Amazon deals

While the lead-up to this sale already had many of the deals live, Kindles are finally discounted with the sale's official start as of June 23.

Here are all the Prime Day deals on Amazon devices available now:

Best Prime Day Echo deals Opens in a new window Credit: Amazon Amazon Echo Spot $44.99 at Amazon
$79.99 Save $35.00   Get Deal

Echo prices dropped in the week leading up to Prime Day. The latest Echo devices, the Echo Dot Max and Echo Studio, both hit new, all-time low prices. But the biggest discount is on the Amazon Echo Spot, the smart alarm clock. This tiny speaker sits compactly on nightstands but provides everything you need to start your morning, including a weather report and tunes to get you out of bed.

During Prime Day, get the Amazon Echo Spot for just $44.99. That saves you $35 off its $79.99 price tag for a 44% discount.

There's nothing better than a smart TV that provides access to all your favorite streaming services, no extraneous streaming sticks or devices needed. During Prime Day, Fire TV sales are plentiful. The best deal is on the Toshiba 43-inch Class C350 LED 4K Smart TV, which is down to $159.99, saving you $140 off. We're keeping our fingers crossed it drops back down to its pre-Prime Day price of $138.98. Still, this 4K TV is great, coming equipped with Dolby Vision Atmos for clearer sound and picture for the best possible viewing experience.

TV deals move fast during big sales, so if this deal looks good to you, buy it quick before it sells out.

It's officially the best time of year to buy a Kindle, and the prices on these e-readers reflect that. The Paperwhite Signature Edition is Mashable's top pick for the best upgraded Kindle, and for good reason. It has 32GB of storage — more than any other Kindle (minus the Scribe) — and auto-adjusting screen brightness, so it's ready for reading in any situation. Even at its full $200 list price, we think it's an e-reader worthy of heavy consideration. At $145, it easily offers the best value for serious readers.

We recommend grabbing a three-camera setup if you want to get the most bang for your buck. Usually, this bundle runs you $219.99, but Prime Day slashes 66% off the price, bringing it down to just $74.99.

Amazon Prime Day is here once again, and there are plenty of deals on offer for anyone with a Nintendo Switch on their wishlist. Several of our favorite Switch and Switch 2 games and accessories are discounted right now, with more to come.

The four-day sale kicked off today, with a wide selection of goodies to claim, including a bundle with the actual console itself. The Switch 2 turns one this month and is set for a price increase to $499.99 on September 1 rather than a cut. The real savings you'll find right now are on games and accessories.

Ready to shop? We've curated the best Prime Day Nintendo Switch deals here for you to add to your cart right now. We'll keep this guide updated as the sale goes on, so keep checking back to find the best Switch and Switch 2 discounts like the ones below.

While technically not a "deal" in the sense that you'll save money for Prime Day, this bundle is a good way to pick up both a Nintendo Switch 2 and the game of your choice out of a decent selection. You get the console itself, Joy-Con controllers, and games like Pokémon Pokopia, Mario Kart World, and Donkey Kong Bananza with the bundle, so you can get started playing right away. With a 7.9-inch LCD touch screen, three play modes, and backwards compatibility with most Nintendo Switch titles, it's well worth picking up, especially given the price hike coming in September.

It also features an integrated charging dock so you can always stay charged up, no matter what kind of schedule you keep. Plus, it has a slew of customizable features you can change up for different games, offering a much more bombastic experience than a Joy-Con controller.

Amazon Prime Day is here and so are the earbud deals. This year's Prime Day runs June 23 to 26, but the sale was hot before it even began.

The actual start date felt like a bit of a formality after the AirPods Pro 3 hit record low prices twice this week. They even dropped to $169 at Walmart on June 18, knocking $80 off the normal $249 price.

According to the price tracker camelcamelcamel, the Pro 3 buds got down to $169 at Amazon, but at the time of writing, that specific deal is gone. Now that Prime Day has officially started, you can still find them for $179.99 and in stock at both Amazon and Best Buy.

The Sony LinkBuds Clip give the ultra-popular Bose Ultra Open earbuds a run for their money. In my head-to-head testing of the two pairs of earbuds, I found that while the Bose buds generally lean louder, the Sony earbuds have a more detailed sound profile, making for an overall superior listening experience. They also have a longer battery life, delivering nine hours per charge, where the Bose earbuds deliver seven. With both earbuds on sale, there's only a 99 cent price discrepancy between the two, but if you don't anticipate using these earbuds in many noisy situations, the Sony earbuds are likely the way to go.

Amazon Prime Day is upon us once more, running June 23 through June 26, and some of our favorite noise-cancelling audio products are marked down to record-low prices.

There are deals on flagship models from Sony, Bose, and Apple. But it's not just the $400+ flagship headphones getting discounts. The mid-range Nothing Headphone (a) are down to $151.05, while one of our budget-friendly favorites, the JLab JBuds Lux ANC, are just $10 away from a record low price.

The Sony XM6 headphones aren't a must-upgrade if you already own the XM5s — in fact, we find the two quite similar. That said, the XM6 headphones are a much more palatable upgrade at a sub-$400 price range, and bring the added convenience of folding ear cups, which is especially handy if you anticipate using them for travel often (which their excellent ANC does make them a great candidate for). At the time of writing, every color option is discounted, though a few finishes are off by about a dollar, depending on which one you pick.

The AirPods Pro have long been a great choice for any Apple power user, and the third generation of the earbuds is no different. In fact, it fills even more gaps than its predecessors. In addition to its solid sound quality and top notch ANC, these earbuds come in with live translation features, and a built-in heart rate monitor. At their full price, they're already on the cheaper end of premium flagship earbuds, but at $179.99, they're nearly unbeatable value.

Eye-popping 65-inch TVs on sale for Prime Day: Up to $1,000 off 2026 TCL mini QLED TVs and LG OLED TVs

4 hours 6 min ago

You may not have needed a new TV during Black Friday or even during Amazon's Spring Sale. But this summer, it might be a different story. Whether you're moving homes in the popular June through August window or simply noticed that your current TV sucks while watching the World Cup, Prime Day is a really smart time to buy a TV.

If you're not sure what size TV to get, the internet will probably tell you that 65 inches is the most palatable size. That's big enough to be seen from 10 feet away, but not so massive that you'll get a headache in a close-knit living space. A 65-inch TV is also more likely to fit comfortably on the average TV stand than if you bumped up to 75 inches.

SEE ALSO: 15+ streaming services you can get for 99 cents, plus more early Prime Day streaming deals

Prime Day TV deals are consistently so good that you'll easily be able to snag a 65-inch TV for the typical price of a smaller model. Through the end of Prime Day 2026 on June 26, I'm tracking all of the most worthwhile deals on 65-inch TVs that are live at Amazon, plus (really good) competing deals from Best Buy. Many are 2026 models that just came out in the spring, already on sale at a new record-low price.

Best 65-inch TV Prime Day deal TCL 65-inch Q8ML Mini LED QLED 4K TV $1,497.99 at Amazon
$2,499.99 Save $1,002.00 Plus, get a 55-inch TCL Q65 TV for free Get Deal at Amazon Why we like it

Just released in April 2026, the TCL Q8ML is the successor to TCL's popular QM8K TV. The single letter change in the title doesn't quite cover the difference in lighting tech here. The SQD Q8ML series features "super quantum dot mini LEDs," which are essentially an extra-bright version of regular quantum dots that are able to reproduce 100 percent of the BT2020 color spectrum. In dark rooms, the 4,000 local dimming zones packed into the Q8ML provide much sharper contrast than a regular mini LED TV.

If you're curious, you can snag the 65-inch TCL Q8ML for $1,499.99 at Amazon — a casual $1,000 off its debut price of $2,499.99.

Best 65-inch Amazon TV deal Amazon 65-inch Ember Artline QLED Art TV $899.99 at Amazon
$1,099.99 Save $200   Get Deal at Amazon Why we like it

Amazon gives its own Fire TVs a good amount of attention during Prime Day, of course. Despite the discounts, Amazon Fire TVs typically still aren't the best bang for your buck compared to 4K TVs from other brands. However, the Prime Day deal on the 65-inch Amazon Ember Artline is actually a really good value for the money.

Only recently released, the Amazon Ember Artline is Amazon's version of a matte art TV. The big deal here is that the Ember Artline comes with a frame color of your choice: Choose from 10 options, including walnut, ash, black oak, fig, graphite, matte white, midnight blue, pale gold, silver, and teak. (Without paying extra, The Frame locks you into black and the Hisense Canvas locks you into teak.)

It's Amazon Prime Day, which officially runs from June 23 through 26, and there are plenty of live deals to shop during the sale.

Besides offering three free months of both Kindle Unlimited and Audible to new subscribers, Amazon also has some pretty great discounts on books themselves. I'm not usually one to recommend purchasing physical books via Amazon (support local book stores!), but it's pretty hard to pass up a 50% price drop on a book you've had on your TBR.

I'm tracking some of the best deals on physical books and e-books at Amazon, but remember to check back for more as the sale continues.

Named one of Goodreads most popular books of 2026 (so far), Freida McFadden's Dear Debbie follows advice columnist Debbie Mullen, who takes a rather extreme approach to fixing her own life as it starts to crumble. Down to just $12.74, this is one of the cheapest hardcover books you can pick up this Prime Day.

A classic trope of two abducted girls, only one returns and one doesn't, The Girl Who Was Taken is a psychological thriller by Charlie Donlea where nothing is as it seems. Typically around $20, you can pick up the paperback version for only $7.50 at Amazon during Prime Day. That's just a few cents away from its lowest price ever.

I highly recommend grabbing this twisty psychological thriller from internationally best-selling author Steve Cavanagh while the Kindle version is only $2.99. Kill For Me Kill For You follows two women seeking revenge against the men who killed their daughters. Over drinks one night, they decide to swap murders, but things don't go exactly as planned.

Were tracking the best Prime Day headphones deals: Sony XM6 and AirPods Max 2 lead the pack

Amazon's annual Prime Day sale is back for the 12th year running, taking place June 23 to 26 instead of its usual July time slot. Many deals arrived early, with a strong showing from premium and budget headphones brands alike. Now that Prime Day 2026 has arrived, Mashable's audio experts are closely watching the best Prime Day headphones deals.

SEE ALSO: Prime Day 2026: Live updates on Apple, Samsung, DJI, Kindle, and more Amazon deals

Some standouts at Amazon include the Bose QuietComfort Ultra line on sale (both earbuds and headphones), Sony's flagship XM6 earbuds and headphones, and two of our favorite open earbuds. Soundcore also has a solid early selection, with the budget-friendly Space One headphones and the dual-form open/ANC AeroFit 2 Pro earbuds also on sale. We're also tracking prices on Apple AirPods and other popular audio products to make sure Mashable readers are the first to know about new price drops.

In the face-off between the Sony XM5 vs XM6 headphones, most times I'd recommend the XM5s, especially if you don't care about folding ear cups. And while the XM5s are down to a new all-time low of $198, so are the XM6s. Get the latest iteration of Sony's flagship headphones for just $378 and save $81.99.

The Sony WF-1000XM6 earbuds are some of the best I've tried, but even at their sale price, they're a hefty investment. While the Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds don't quite match up in sound quality, they still have some of the best noise cancellation available, and are the most comfortable earbuds I've ever tried. For roughly $50 less, they're the deal to beat leading up to Prime Day.

Bose was the near-undisputed champion of open earbuds with top-notch sound — that is, until the Sony LinkBuds Clip came along. In my head-to-head testing of the earbuds, I found that while the Bose buds can get louder (an important feature in open earbuds), the clarity and detail of the sound in the Sony buds surpassed that of the Bose. Even though the $70 price discrepancy is smaller with both buds on sale, the sub-$200 price point on the Sony earbuds is hard to pass up.

Without a doubt, camping is one of the best highlights of summer. Now that we're almost to July, you've probably checked on the condition of camping gear and noticed if anything needs upgrades to finish out the summer. While most of us shop for tech deals during Prime Day, Amazon is showing up for us outdoorsy folks this year. I've found great deals on items that make camping just that much more enjoyable.

SEE ALSO: These Prime Day outdoor deals will get you prepped for summer

From packing along your own shade to a portable power station that'll keep phones charged up, Prime Day has some excellent deals for your next camping trip. I've studied the sale, and these are the top products I'd recommend if you're in the market for camping upgrades during Prime Day.

We will be regularly updating this guide with the best camping deals, so keep checking back. You can also visit our Prime Day 2026 hub for all the latest updates and price drops or our live blog for the most up-to-date deals, news, and stock alerts.

If you've never packed a portable power station along on a camping trip, prepare for a massive upgrade. Amazon Prime Day has the Anker Solix C1000 Gen 2 on sale for $399.99, down from the list price of $799 for a sweet 50% discount.

The Solix C1000 Gen 2 has 1,024Wh of battery capacity for keeping phones charged up as well as earbuds, tablets, the campsite lights, and even the electric griddle. Plus, it can get a full recharge in under 50 minutes, so you're not in huge trouble if you don't remember to charge it up until you're packing the car.

You woke up at dawn to book the campsite reservation back in February, and when you arrive, it's nothing but full sun. Instead of dealing with a weekend of sunburns, the Shibumi Park Vista Sun Shade Canopy provides portable shade. It's intuitive to set up, weighs under five pounds, and it comfortably seats four people in the shade. The UPF 50+ sun protection is perfect for long summer days at the campground.

We found the best Prime Day deals on DJI drones and creator tools — shop wireless mics, drones, and cameras

The best DJI Prime Day deals at a glance: Best drone deal DJI Mini 3 $269 at Amazon (save $150) Get Deal Best new release DJI Mic 3 $219 at Amazon (save $110) Get Deal Best camera deal DJI Osmo Action 4 Essential Combo $169 at Amazon (save $60) Get Deal Cult-Favorite DJI Osmo Pocket 3 Gimbal camera $378 at Amazon (save $121) Get Deal Best DJI Gimbal Deal DJI Osmo 7P Gimbal for Smartphones $99 at Amazon (save $30) Get Deal Budget Pick DJI Mic Mini (2 TX + 1 RX + Charging Case) $79 at Amazon (save $20) Get Deal

Amazon Prime Day is officially here, and if you've had your eye on any DJI gear, now's the time to click "add to cart."

In case you haven't heard, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) officially added foreign-produced drones and uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS) to its national security Covered List on December 22, 2025. This means DJI isn't allowed to import or sell any new drone models moving forward (so a future Mavic 5 Pro is out). That also means you can only buy DJI drones at Amazon from third-party sellers here in the United States, which is a bummer.

SEE ALSO: Amazon Prime Day is here: We found 50+ deals on Apple, Sony, and Lego favorites

The good news? Anything that already secured FCC approval before the cutoff — like the Mavic 4 Pro, Mini 5 Pro, Air 3S, and Neo 2 — is legal to buy, own, and fly. So, if you want to grab a beginner-friendly drone or stock up on discounted backup batteries, action cams, and creator gear, Prime Day is likely your best window to get them on sale before the inventory dries up.

Many of the DJI products in this guide — like the DJI Mini Mini, the DJI Mic 3, the DJI Osmo Pocket 3, and the DJI Osmo 7P Gimbal — have been personally tested and recommended by Mashable product reviewers. If you want to find the best Prime Day deals on DJI products, we can vouch for these products.

Best Prime Day DJI drone deal DJI Mini 3 $269 at Amazon
$419 Save $150   Get Deal at Amazon Get Deal at Best Buy Why we like it

Right now, you can get the DJI Mini 3 for $269, down from $419. That's a 36% discount or a $150 savings. It's also a jump from where we saw it earlier this morning, if you can believe it (it was $381). This is the lowest price we've tracked on this model to date.

The DJI Mini 3 is a level up from the DJI Mini 4K, which is a more budget-friendly pick for entry-level fliers (and at just $209, a steal). It weighs less than 249g, features 4K HDR video with True Vertical Shooting (ideal for photographers or real estate agents), and a 38-minute max flight time.

The DJI Osmo Action 4 Essential Combo includes an extension rod, three batteries (two more than the Standard Combo), and a multifunctional battery case, and it's currently on sale for $169 — a new record-low price.

The camera itself features a 1/1.3-inch sensor for shooting in low-light conditions, as well as 4K video capabilities at up to 120fps with a 155-degree ultra-wide field of view. It offers up to 150 minutes of battery life and it works in temperatures as low as -20°C. It's even waterproof to depths of 18m, making it an ideal choice for vlogging your outdoor adventures.

The DJI Mic 3 is on sale for $219, down from $329. This is another all-time low price for a Mashable-tested wireless microphone kit.

The Mic 3 is a compact wireless microphone system designed for creators, podcasters, and interviewers who need quality audio while on the go. It supports up to four transmitters, features adaptive gain control and selectable noise cancellation, and uses dual-band transmission for clear audio in busy environments. You'll get up to 28 hours of battery life with the charging case, so it's great for long hours of recording. Not to mention, it has compatibility with a huge range of DJI devices.

The best Pokémon deals to grab over Prime Day — Chaos Rising Elite Trainer Box on sale

4 hours 14 min ago

Amazon's Prime Day sale has officially started, kicking off several days of discounts across tech, home essentials, gaming accessories, and, most importantly for collectors, Pokémon cards, games, toys, and merch.

Now that the four-day shopping event is live, Amazon has opened up a much bigger wave of offers than the early deals we were seeing. However, Pokémon discounts tend to move faster than most Prime Day markdowns. TCG releases can sell out as soon as they drop below the usual market price.

Whether you're hunting booster packs from the newest trading card game sets, picking up a Nintendo Switch title, or adding a few gifts to your basket, Mashable has sifted through Amazon to find the Pokémon offers worth buying before they sell out or climb again.

Here are the best Prime Day deals available right now.

Best Pokémon card deal Opens in a new window Credit: The Pokémon Company Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Chaos Rising Elite Trainer Box $92.55 at Amazon
$118.99 Save $26.44   Get Deal Why we like it

Still one of the most in-demand expansions from the Mega Evolution set, getting over $26 off the Pokémon TCG’s Chaos Rising Elite Trainer Box — now only $92.55 — is a fantastic buy for Amazon shoppers on Prime Day. 

Far below its initial $118.99 list price, this box gets you nine Chaos Rising booster packs, a full-art foil Fennekin promo card, card sleeves, Energy cards, dice, a coin, a collector’s box, and a Pokémon TCG Live code card. Among those nine, you still have a chance at pulling one of its high-value chase cards (available to buy separately at TCGplayer) — including SIR Mega Greninja ex, Mega Hyper Rare Mega Greninja ex, Cinccino ex, SIR Mega Dragalge ex, and SIR Mega Floette ex. 

Amazon isn’t the cheapest place to buy it today, with Walmart at $87.88 and TCGplayer listings from $77.98, but this is still a great Prime Day pick if you prefer to buy your trading cards from Amazon.

Is your summer travel booked? If you're getting ready to jet set or hit the road but don't want to lug your laptop around, then it might be time to consider a tablet. Our favorites for performance and overall value are Apple's iPads. So with Prime Day kicking off and running until June 26, we're looking for the best deals on Apple's tablets.

Prime Day has begun and iPads are already on sale. Don't get too excited, though. While we found deals on every single iPad model, the markdowns are pretty minor. The good news is, if you need an iPad right now, you don’t have to pay full price.

If you need an iPad now, here are the best deals to shop this Prime Day.

While we love the iPad Air and think it's the best tablet money can buy, the basic iPad with A16 chip is still a stellar tablet. The 11th-generation model is a speedy tablet perfect for streaming, internet browsing, reading, and gaming. It's a great value at full price and even better when on sale.

Right now, get the 11th-generation iPad with A16 chip for just $299, bringing the tablet under $300. It's not the best price on the iPad, but it is just $25 away from its lowest price, so not bad. Need something more advanced? Well, there are more iPad deals on the Air and Pro to explore, too.

Whether you're headed out on a European vacation or have a list of summer hikes to tackle, an Apple Watch is one of our favorite ways to stay connected and track activity. And with Prime Day here again, we're hunting for deals on the popular smartwatch.

Amazon's biggest sale of the year, which runs for four days from June 23 to 26, has only just begun but we've already spotted the Series 11 at a new low price at the retailer, but that's not all. We've gathered up all the Apple Watch deals that deserve a look during Prime Day.

Ive covered Amazon Prime Day for 7 years. Here are the MacBook deals worth buying right now.

The best Prime Day MacBook deals at a glance: Best MacBook Air deal Apple MacBook Air, 13-inch (M5, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $949 (save $150) Get Deal

Prime Day 2026 is here — one of the best times to get a deal on a MacBook. I've covered Amazon's flagship summer sale for seven years straight now, and I always see Apple laptops get hefty discounts as part of the festivities. This year is par for the course, with savings of up to $250 across the MacBook Air and Pro lineups.

Amazon's Prime Day MacBook deals are especially welcome right now because Apple is on the verge of sweeping price hikes. (Blame the global RAM shortage.) Going forward, I think it'll be rarer to find MacBooks at prices like we're seeing this week.

SEE ALSO: Amazon Prime Day is here: We found 50+ deals on Apple, Sony, and Lego favorites

It's worth mentioning that most configurations are still a ways away from their lowest prices on record. For instance, the M5 MacBook Airs are $150 off right now, but they were $200 off last month around Memorial Day. Amazon has sweetened its MacBook deals midway through previous Prime Day sales, so consider waiting to make your purchase until later this week in case prices dip further.

I'd also check out competing retailers' anti-Prime Day sales — namely, Best Buy's Tech Fest. It features lots of deals on older refurbished MacBooks that you won't find elsewhere. (Amazon had a new M3 MacBook from 2024 marked down to $799 in the early hours of Prime Day, but it sold out quickly.)

Read on for my one-stop guide to all of the top Prime Day MacBook deals, and check back often. I'll continue to update my list based on Amazon's latest prices and deals availability. I'm marking any record-lows I encounter with a 🔥.

Best Prime Day MacBook Air deal Opens in a new window Credit: Apple Apple MacBook Air, 13-inch (M5, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD) $949 at Amazon
$1,099 Save $150   Get Deal

The new M5 MacBook Air is a class-leading ultraportable with a zippy processor, two full workdays' worth of battery life, and a premium, polished design. (Haptic touchpad? Check. Crisp Liquid Retina display? Check. Speakers that sound better than anything you'll find on the average Windows laptop? Checkity-check.) The 13-inch base configuration is on sale for $949 on Amazon this Prime Day, which is 14% off its regular $1,099 sticker price.

You'll find the same deal at Best Buy this week, too. These deals both apply to all four colors: starlight, silver, midnight, and sky blue.

The M5 MacBook Pro is a creative-forward upgrade with a gorgeous 120Hz Liquid Retina XDR (mini-LED) display, a longer battery life, and extra ports like an SDXC card slot. It also has built-in fans, unlike the MacBook Air, so you're less likely to experience thermal throttling when you run demanding software on it. Amazon has the base model listed for $1,549 this Prime Day (typically $1,699) — a 9% savings. Best Buy is also price-matching Amazon here.

More MacBook Pro dealsWhat about the MacBook Neo? The Apple MacBook Neo has yet to see a sizable discount on Amazon. Credit: Joe Maldonado / Mashable composite

The MacBook Neo is Apple's colorful new budget laptop. It starts at $599 with 256GB of storage. For $699, you can double its storage capacity and add Touch ID.

While Amazon hasn't been totally resistant to putting the Neo on sale — it's been $9 off there for several weeks now — it doesn't get the same big price cuts as Apple's other laptops. This is probably because it's already a bargain at full price. For that reason, I wouldn't count on it getting a big discount this Prime Day (but I'm happy to be proven wrong).

As things stand, the best MacBook Neo deal right now is Apple's education pricing for college students, their parents, and teachers. Eligible buyers pay just $499 for the base model and $599 for the Touch ID model (a $100 savings either way). If you don't qualify for that offer, Amazon's $9 discount is waiting.

The MacBook Air is my favorite MacBook for most people, including most college students and office workers. The MacBook Neo is my top pick for frugal buyers, casual users, and younger students (grades K through 12). The MacBook Pro is my No. 1 choice for content creators and other creative professionals, especially photo and video editors.

Amazon Prime Day has officially started. Let the fun begin.

Prime Day usually takes place in mid-July, but it got bumped up in the schedule this year: the four-day sale takes place from June 23 to June 26. Now that the sale has started, Apple products are starting to get marked down. Already, a classic $99 deal on Apple AirPods 4 wireless earbuds is available at Amazon, and we're expecting even more discounts to drop as the sale continues.

SEE ALSO: The ultimate Prime Day Apple deals guide: We're tracking prices on AirPods, iPads, and MacBooks

And if you prefer AirPods with active noise-cancellation, you're in luck. We've seen the Apple AirPods Pro 3 as low as $179.99. Also at Amazon, you can grab a deal on the AirPods 4 with ANC earbuds starting at $148.99, saving you $30. Plus, there’s a good chance more deals will continue to pop up.

Until the sale ends on June 26, the Mashable shopping team will be bringing you the top Prime Day deals on Apple products. For now, you'll find all of the best Prime Day AirPods deals right here on this page.

Technically, we've seen the Apple AirPods 4 drop all the way down to $69, and we're hoping we'll see the same deal later over Prime Day. However, given the recent wave of price increases in the tech world, we're not counting on it. So, if you're hoping to avoid the Prime Day sales pressure, pick up these classic Apple earbuds while they're under $100.

I'm Mashable's tech editor, and I love my job. I get to test the coolest new tech products before anyone else, and I basically get paid to nerd out over the latest noise-cancelling headphones, smart glasses, and laptops. All year long, I've been reporting on price hikes, but for Prime Day 2026, I can finally write about price drops.

In this guide, I'm sharing all of the best Prime Day tech deals. Amazon Prime Day 2026 runs from June 23 to June 26, and the Mashable shopping team will be providing round-the-clock coverage of the sale. Only the best deals — the ones I'd recommend to friends and family or shop myself — end up on this page.

Mashable also goes a step further than merely collecting deals. We also check competing sales at sites like Best Buy, Dyson, and Target to make sure Amazon really has the lowest price. Finally, we use price tracking tools to separate the great deals from the pretenders.

So, with all this in mind, here are the best Prime Day tech deals of 2026. I've personally tested many of these products, but I'm also leaning on recommendations from our tech and shopping teams.

The latest generation of Apple Watches offered some big upgrades, and Prime Day has delivered the best-ever deal on the Apple Watch Series 11. This smartwatch has a longer battery and other key upgrades over its predecessor, and our reviewer named it a Mashable Choice product. However, if you want to go all-out on the new Apple Watch Ultra 3, this premier fitness and sleep-tracking smartwatch is also on sale at an all-time low price.

$799 Save $150   Get Deal Save up to 50% on Bose headphones

Bose makes the most comfortable headphones in the world, according to both our readers and product testers. On day one of Prime Day, you can save 50% on the Bose QuietComfort noise-cancelling headphones. While the brand's flagship QuietComfort Ultra (Gen 2) headphones are on sale for $70 off, we're hoping prices will go lower on those particular cans.

$179 Save $50   Get Deal Kindles starting at $85

Our favorite Kindles rarely go on sale, but you can always count on Prime Day for some discounts on these popular e-readers. For Prime Day, you can buy Kindle e-readers starting at $84.99, and the Kindle Paperwhite — our most-recommended Kindle and the one I use personally — is back to its record-low price of $124.99.

$159.99 Save $35.00   Get Deal Save $150 on the new MacBook Air

I tested the M5 MacBook Air for Mashable when it was released earlier this year, and the longer I use it, the more I like it. If you've been waiting for Prime Day to buy this Apple laptop, then I have good news and bad news. The good news is it's on sale for $949. The bad news: Over Memorial Day Weekend, we saw prices drop to $899. So, if you can wait a little longer, you can wait for a further price drop later in the week.

$1,099 Save $150   Get Deal Anker wall chargers starting at $25.99

Looking for the best Prime Day deals under $50? I've got you.

I never travel without my Anker Prime GaN wall charger, which can charge my laptop, my phone, and earbuds at the same time. If that's overkill, you can also grab Anker's most adorable wall charger with a built-in display for just $25.99 this Prime Day.

$39.99 Save $14.00   Get Deal The best Apple AirPods deals

We were hoping to see slightly better Prime Day deals on AirPods, and prices could still go lower on the AirPods Pro 3 and AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation. But we can recommend shopping the AirPods Max 2 headphones and AirPods 4 at the current prices. The AirPods Max 2 have never been this cheap, though there is a slight chance the AirPods 4 will get another price drop later in the week.

$129 Save $30   Get Deal Get 50% off Jackery power stations

I've loved Jackery power stations long before they became the trendy new "it" product. For creators, campers, and anyone with a safety-first mindset, these popular orange power stations keep you powered on when everyone else is off-grid. The best Prime Day tech deals always include massive savings on power stations, and this is my top pick of the sale so far.

$799 Save $399.01   Get Deal Record-low prices on Samsung TVs

I've been recommending Samsung's famous art TVs, The Frame, for many years, and they keep getting better. For Prime Day 2026, you can get these cult-favorite, ultra-thin TVs on sale at Amazon for their lowest-ever price. And if you want to splurge on a Samsung OLED TV instead, you can grab the brand's award-winning S90F OLED 65-inch TV for 29% off its list price.

Please note: As of this writing, this Amazon listing incorrectly displays a picture of the more expensive The Frame Pro model.

$1,697.99 Save $500   Get Deal Best Prime Day TV deals under $500

If a premium Samsung OLED TV isn't in your budget, I feel you. It's not in mine at the moment, either. However, despite all the price hikes we've seen in 2026, prices on 55- and 65-inch TVs keep getting lower, and not just during big sales like this.

For Prime Day 2026, grab the new Amazon Ember 55-inch 4-Series Fire TV, which comes with Amazon's new art mode. You can also score an insane price on the Hisense 65-inch E6 Series QLED 4K Fire TV.

The best Prime Day tech deals always include savings on the Fire TV stick streaming devices, which start at just $15.99. If you're not ready to buy a new smart TV, then upgrade your older model TV with these streaming sticks. During the Amazon sale, these devices are on sale for up to 54% off.

  Get Deal Prime Day deals on Sony headphones

The past-gen Sony XM5 headphones have 95% of the same features as the new flagship XM6 headphones, but during Prime Day, they have a much lower price. So, if you want to enjoy Sony's premium sound and best-in-class active noise cancellation, you can pick up these headphones for under $200. You can also grab the recently released XM6 wireless earbuds for their lowest price ever.

$329.99 Save $64   Get Deal DJI creator tools on sale

Mashable readers and reviewers alike appreciate DJI's cult-favorite creator tools. The brand makes some of the most popular gadgets for professional content creators, and no DJI products are more popular than the TikTok-famous DJI Mic Mini and DJI Osmo Pocket 3 gimbal camera. I've personally tested both of these devices for Mashable, and their reputation is well-deserved.

$499 Save $121   Get Deal Top Dyson deals

For the best Prime Day Dyson deals, we actually recommend skipping Amazon altogether. Dyson is hosting a very competitive sale at its online store, where you can find our favorite Dyson products at the lowest prices we've seen. If you've always wanted a fancy Dyson stick vacuum with the laser attachment, grab the V12 Detect Slim for $250 off. I'm also a huge fan of the original Dyson Supersonic hair dryer, which I've relied on for years. This week, you can pick it up with three attachments for $279.99.

$399.99 Save $120   Get Deal Deals on Apple AirTags 1 and 2

The new Apple AirTags 2 just got their first-ever discount at Amazon, though it's not a very big one. Still, you can grab these long-range trackers for $24 (or $89 for a 4-pack). However, if you really want to save, then head to Amazon-associated retailer Woot, where you can score a four-pack of the original AirTags 1 for $69.99 — while supplies last, which they won't.

$99 Save $10   Get Deal Blink Mini cameras starting at $9.99, somehow

Looking for Prime Day deals under $25? You can't do much better than this Blink Mini indoor security camera for just $9.99. That's so cheap we have to wonder if Amazon is selling it as a loss, or if the company has achieved Apple Tim Cook levels of supply chain wizardry. Either way, you can grab this Amazon brand's security cameras to protect your home inside and out.

Because DJI drones have been officially banned in the United States, you can only buy these popular drones from third-party sellers on Amazon. However, if you're willing to risk it, you can score some great deals on these drones, which have professional-quality cameras but controls that are simple enough for beginners.

$419 Save $150   Get Deal Theragun Relief by Therabody

The massage gun craze has died down, but these percussive massagers are still beloved by athletes at all levels. This Prime Day lightning deal lets you grab one of the newest Therabody massagers for under $100, but for one day only.

$159.99 Save $63.49   Get Deal A power station with solar panels

When you add solar panels to a portable power station, you transform these devices into eco-friendly generators. For backyard powerups or RV camping, this Mashable-tested power station is one of our favorites, and during Prime Day, you can bundle it with a foldable 400W solar panel.

$1,099 Save $300   Get Deal Sony's new Bluetooth turntable

My colleague Haley Henschel reviewed Sony's newest wireless record player, which was released in the spring. For Prime Day, this trending product got its first big price drop, with a cool $100 discount. This record player is a good choice for vinyl newbies and moderate collectors, and it's easy to use. For more, check out our full review.

$348 Save $100   Get Deal Nintendo Switch 2 Choose Your Game bundle

Technically, this isn't a Prime Day deal, as the new Nintendo Switch 2 Choose Your Game Bundle first launched a few weeks ago. But absent a compelling offer from Nintendo, this is the best Prime Day video game deal of the moment. This bundle lets you choose between three popular games to bundle with the gaming console. Remember: The Switch 2 is getting a price hike later this year, so don't miss your chance to save.

  Learn More Shark's personal fan

My colleague, Samantha Mangino, tested the Shark ChillPill and found that it's a great little device, but too expensive to recommend at full price. During Prime Day, the ChillPill has gotten a slight discount of $20, knocking the price down to $129.99, which still isn't amazing, but it's the lowest price we've seen to date.

Shark ChillPill $129.99 at Amazon
$149.99 Save $20   Get Deal at Amazon Amazon Echo Show 11

Amazon devices always get big discounts during the retailer's sales events. In fact, I don't know why you'd buy Echo devices any other time of year. The newest Amazon smart display is currently 32% off for Prime members.
