The best early Prime Day deals ahead of Amazon’s July sale — shop Apple, Anker and more

is less than two weeks away, but we’re already seeing a handful of decent early deals go live in advance of the big sale. Per usual, many of the more noteworthy discounts apply to Amazon’s own gadgets and subscription services, but there are a few good offers on devices from the likes of Apple, Anker, Samsung and Bose as well. We’re rounding up the best Prime Day deals we can find below, and we’ll continue to update this post as we get closer to the actual sale. Just remember that you’ll need to to see some (but not all) of the better discounts going on now.

Apple

Apple

The latest stylus for iPads, the Apple Pencil Pro is currently on sale for $119 on Amazon. That’s just $10 lower than its original price, but does happen to be the first discount on the new accessory since it’s launch last month. The new Pencil Pro recognizes squeezes, which can trigger actions like bringing up app-specific tool palettes and shortcuts, and gives you haptic feedback as you use it. It can also detect rolling the barrel for more precision as you draw.

Apple released the new iPad Air models with the M2 chip back in May and right now, the larger 13-inch model with 128GB of storage is available for a record-low price of $749, down from $799. The M2 iPad Air is our choice for 2024’s best overall iPad. You can get the deal on the Blue, Purple and Starlight models, but the Space Gray option is a little more at $769. Apple’s new slate earned a 91 in our review because it’s powerful, capable and has a great-looking screen. It doesn’t have the top-of-the-line features and performance of the new iPad Pros — but the Air is nearly $500 cheaper.

If you’re an Amazon Prime member who has never subscribed to Amazon Music Unlimited, you can now get five months of the music streaming service for no cost as any early Prime Day deal. If you’re a new user who doesn’t have Prime, you can get a three-month free trial. The service normally gives a one-month free trial then costs $10 per month for those who subscribe to Prime and $11 per month for those who don’t.

Music Unlimited isn’t a formal recommendation in our guide to the best music streaming apps: Its interface isn’t as tidy or smartly curated as that of Apple Music, our top pick, and we’ve found it to be a bit aggressive about promoting podcasts you may not care about. That said, it’s hard to beat free, and the service has more or less the same giant music library as its peers. It also supports lossless streaming, unlike Spotify, which is a nice plus for audiophiles with high-quality wired headphones. If you just want to save a bit of cash on your music streaming for a few months, it should do the job. Just remember to cancel when the free trial ends, as your subscription will be set to auto-renew by default.

Similar to the Amazon Music Unlimited deal above, Prime members who’ve never subscribed to can get three months of the audiobook service for free. A membership normally costs $14.95 per month after a one-month free trial, so this is a roughly $30 discount. As a refresher, Audible Premium Plus gives access to a big library of on-demand audiobooks, podcasts and other content, plus a monthly credit you can use to permanently buy a title in the Audible store. The service will be most worthwhile if you tend to burn through audiobooks quickly; if you’re on the fence, this extended trial should make it easier to see if you’d get any use out of it. Remember that your service will auto-renew at the standard price after the trial period ends until you cancel.

Prime subscribers can grab for $75, which is a new low for the latest-gen model. The 10.1-inch slate technically has a list price of $140, though it’s frequently sold for $95 since it was released last September. At this price, it’s a decent value if you just want a cheap second screen for light video streaming, web browsing and ebook reading. It’s relatively comfortable to hold, it can last more than 10 hours on a charge and its 1080p display is bright and sharp enough. This variant comes with a measly 32GB of storage by default, but you can expand that .

You should only grab a Fire tablet if price is your main concern, however, as the Fire HD 10 is still far in terms of performance and build quality. Amazon’s Fire OS loves to push the company’s own services above everything else, too, and its app selection is much more limited. You’ll also see lock-screen ads unless you pay an . But if you only need a tablet for the essentials, those issues might be easier to overlook at $75. A few other Fire tablets are also on sale, including the smaller but slower Fire HD 8 for $55.

Blink

This Blink Outdoor 4 bundle that includes one Blink Mini 2 camera is on sale for Prime members for only $50. That’s 64 percent off its usual price, and it gives you a good way to keep an eye on your home, inside and out. It also comes with a sync module, so you’ll have everything you need to set up both cameras and add more in the future if you desire.

Amazon’s Fire TV Soundbar is $20 off and down to $100, which is the best price we’ve seen all year. It’s best paired with a Fire TV device or a standalone Fire TV, and it supports surround sound with DTS Virtual:X, and Dolby Audio.

Soundcore

The Anker Soundcore Space A40 earbuds have returned to a low of $59, that’s a savings of $21 over the full price. We named these our top pick for a budget-friendly set of buds because they provide features like EQ adjustment, splash-resistance, active noise cancellation and a decent transparency mode. Plus the sound itself is pleasant and warm.

JLab

One of our favorite pairs of headphones for running, the JLab Go Air Sport, are on sale for only $20 right now thanks to a $10 coupon. These buds have a sturdy yet comfortable hook design, impressive sound quality for the price and good battery life.

SAMSUNG

The beige color of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9+ is down to a record-low price of $749, or $250 off. We consider the entire S9 series of tablets to be some of the best you can buy right now thanks to their solid performance, IP68-rated design, excellent optional accessories and handy Dex mode for multitasking.

Tineco

One of our favorite cordless stick vacuums from Tineco is on sale for $350 right now when you apply the $150 clickable coupon. This model has great suction power, auto-power adjustment, easy maneuvering and even Wi-Fi connectivity.

Shark

This Shark AI Ultra robot vacuum is half off and down to only $300 right now. A version of one of our top picks for the best robot vacuums, it supports cleaning schedules and home mapping, plus it comes with a self-emptying base that can hold up to 60 days worth of debris. The base is also bagless, so you don’t have to buy and replace proprietary garbage bags in it over time.

$300 at Amazon

Bose

These Bose true wireless earbuds are down to $179 right now. That’s $100 off their usual price and the lowest we’ve seen. The Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds are a bit newer, but these are still solid buds with excellent noise cancellation for the price.

Our top pick for a Wi-Fi 6E mesh system is TP-Link’s Deco XE75, and right now, it’s on sale for just $290 with a $60 coupon for a pack of three. That’s the lowest price we’ve tracked, taking $160 off the set’s list price. We like how it balances power and user-friendliness, bringing fast connections to places in your home that may have been spotty before.

Amazon Prime Day 2024 lands on July 16 and 17 this year. The shopping event focuses on exclusive deals for Prime members, which means you’ll have to be a Prime subscriber on Prime Day to take advantage of most of the savings. Amazon still offers a 30-day free trial to new Prime subscribers, so you can start your free trial now to participate in the event.

No, but Prime Day usually happens during the summertime in the United States. In recent years, Amazon has held a second sale event in the fall as well, dubbed October Prime Day, which is similar to the summertime sale.

Amazon Prime Day focuses on exclusive deals available only to Prime members. However, if you don’t pay for Prime and have no intention of doing so, you should still check out Amazon on Prime Day for sales that are available to all shoppers — there are always a few of them.
