Amazon’s annual Prime Day sales event is inching closer: For 48 hours starting on July 12, Prime members will get access to substantial deals on tech, home appliances, toys and more. Amazon is dropping early Prime Day deals in the weeks leading up to the event, mostly on Amazon-branded tech products like Fire TVs, gaming devices and smart glasses as well as highly rated Wi-Fi systems. Below, we rounded up some of the best deals we’re seeing, using the price tracker CamelCamelCamel to ensure the discounts are actually worth it. (Since Amazon created it in 2015, Prime Day has come to dominate summer sales events across the world.)
We’ll be updating our coverage throughout the coming weeks, as Amazon is set to drop more deals in the lead-up to Prime Day.
