    We’ve Already Spotted 38 Truly Great Prime Day Deals

    News RoomBy News RoomJune 28, 202516 Mins Read

    Amazon Prime Day 2025 is fast approaching, and the sale is already underway on some items. To help you find the best early Prime Day deals, we’ve scoured Amazon for deals on the tech we love. As always, every deal we recommend here is on a product our reviewers have personally tested and approved—you won’t find any shoddy dupes or mystery brands here.

    This year Prime Day runs for four days, July 8-11, rather than the usual two. That means there’s twice as long to suffer save. Twice as long to score a great deal on a new Amazon Fire Tablet, some AirPods, or a KitchenAid stand mixer.

    Be sure to read our explainer on all the Amazon Prime perks you should be taking advantage of.

    Updated Saturday June 28, 2025: We’ve removed a couple of sold-out deals and added new deals on HP’s Chromebook x360, Surface laptops, a Samsung Watch Series 7 watch, Beats Solo 4 headphones, Sawyer Squeeze water filter, Garmin Inreach Mini 2, Petcube Cam 360, Blissy Silk Sleep Mask, and the Imilab C30 Dual Security Camera


    WIRED Featured Deals


    Amazon Device Deals

    Amazon’s Eero Pro 6E (7/10, WIRED Recommends) is a tri-band mesh that adds the 6-GHz band to the familiar 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz bands. If you have a 1 Gbps or faster connection and lots of devices, this is a great mesh system for you. It performed extremely well in our tests, though the 6-Ghz band is short-range.

    Amazon Fire Max 11 tablet

    This deal is for the Fire Max 11 (5/10, WIRED Review) bundle, with keyboard. The Fire Max 11 is Amazon’s nicest Fire tablet, but if you’re thinking of doing work, keep in mind that Google’s various office apps won’t work. If you don’t need those, this is a serviceable tablet. The screen is bright and sharp enough, the speakers aren’t bad, and the cameras are 1080p.

    Easily the best audiobook service, Amazon’s Audible Premium Plus gives you access to a library of Audible Originals, audiobooks, and podcasts, one credit per month to use on any audiobook title you fancy, and regular exclusive deals and discounts. Prime members can have three months for free right now (one month for non-Prime members), after which it costs $15 per month.

    It may not be the best music streaming service, but Amazon Music Unlimited earned an honorable mention in our guide. Four months of free service for Prime members (three months for non-Prime members) will be enough to tempt some folks to try it.

    Apple Prime Day Deals

    The iPad (A16) (8/10, WIRED Recommends) has a USB-C port, a Touch ID sensor integrated into the power button, a 12-megapixel rear camera, and a 12-MP selfie camera in landscape mode (with support for Center Stage). You also get 5G on the cellular model. The A16 chip is the same one in the iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 15, and iPhone 15 Plus. It’s plenty powerful, but there’s not enough RAM to support Apple Intelligence, making it the only iPad in the lineup without access to Apple’s artificial intelligence features (possibly a feature depending on your stance on AI).

    MacBook Air (M4, 2025)

    Would it surprise you to know that this is the laptop I am typing on right now? Probably not. The Air is one of the most popular laptops around and for good reason. You get a powerful, portable laptop with outstanding battery life for under a grand. If your workload is graphics-intensive, you might want to go for the 14- or 16-inch MacBook Pro, but for the rest of us the Air is the Apple laptop to get.

    AirPods Pro 2 (With USB-C)

    Apple’s latest AirPods Pro (8/10, WIRED Recommends) are ubiquitous for good reason. They’ve now got USB-C in the charging case, and this latest version sounds better than ever before. They have an IP54 sweat- and dust-resistance rating, and the noise-canceling is top-tier. Pair that with six hours of juice and a case with a speaker to help use Apple’s “Find My” feature, and you have a winning combo.

    The Watch Series 10 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is the best Apple Watch for most people. It does not have blood oxygen sensing, which is truly preposterous given that almost every other fitness tracker on the planet has it, but it can tell if you have sleep apnea, which otherwise requires a disruptive sleep test to diagnose. The Series 10 is thinner and lighter, so it’s more comfortable to wear while sleeping, and it has fast charging, so it can track more of your activities during the day.

    The gateway drug of Apple Watches, the entry-level SE is a compelling deal. It doesn’t have the latest standout health features, but it’s compatible with watchOS 11, so you’ll be able to take advantage of the new Vitals app, and it has the S8 chip, which offers support for features like Crash Detection. It remains the best Apple Watch for the money.

    Image may contain: Electronics

    Photograph: Beats 

    The Beats Flex are the best headphones for Apple users under $100. They feature quick pairing, easy access to Siri, and seamless Apple Music integration, thanks to Apple’s W1 chip, which ensures a rock-solid wireless connection to iOS devices. We were able to get 12-hour-plus battery life, which is good enough for a few workdays of tunes between trips to the wall charger.

    The Beat Solo 4 headphones offer clear and buttery smooth sound, with good instrumental separation. As you’d expect, there’s hands-free Siri and Apple Spatial Audio support, and they come with a compact carrying case for easy packing. Note that there’s no noise canceling or transparency mode, no auto pause feature, or water-resistance rating.

    MagGo Power Bank for Apple Watch

    For those overnight trips it’s nice to have a power bank capable of charging up your Apple Watch. This Anker power bank has a handy pop-up Apple Watch charger that can deliver 5 watts and supports Nightstand mode. It also has a built-in USB-C cable and a USB-C port, so you can deliver up to 30 watts to your phone or another small device.

    Our top pick watch for Samsun fans, the Galaxy Watch7 features a nice rounded design—the accented 20-mm straps add a nice touch—though it is a little plain. This model infuses artificial intelligence algorithms to improve your health tracking data, like the Energy Score and updated sleep tracking capabilities.

    Surface Laptop Copilot+ PC (7th Edition, 2024)

    The Surface Laptop (7th Edition) is the best Surface device for most people. If you’re looking for a lightweight and reliable Windows PC with good battery life, look no further. This deal is on the higher-end 13-inch model, with a Snapdragon X Elite processor, 16-GB RAM, and a 1-TB SSD. Performance was excellent in our testing, although this is not a machine for graphics-intensive tasks like video editing or gaming.

    Image may contain: Computer, Electronics, Laptop, Pc, Computer Hardware, Hardware, Monitor, Screen, and Plant

    HP’s Chromebook Plus x360 is a good 2-in-1 Chromebook. Its design is nondescript, but the Intel Core i3 chip is plenty speedy for Chromebook workloads, it’s lightweight, and the 2-in-1 design means you can watch movies in tent mode. The speakers sound decent and get surprisingly loud, and the 1,920 X 1,200-pixel resolution is sharp on this 14-inch IPS LCD panel.

    This Wi-Fi 7 mesh router offers expansive coverage and it very fast on all bands. You get a good selection of multi-gig Ethernet ports and it’s easy to set up and use. The downside is the price, but this deal helps out with that. You’ll need a HomeShield Pro subscription for online protection and full parental controls.

    This little power bank has a 25,000-mAh capacity and can deliver up to 165 watts to two devices (it tops out at 100 watts for a single device connected via USB-C). The retractable cable is nice, and the clever braided 1-foot USB-C cable doubles as a carry loop. It has a display to show the remaining battery, charging rate in and out, battery temperature, and health.

    Ugreen Power Bank

    Photograph: Ugreen

    Ugreen’s 145-watt charger, with 25,000-mAh battery, is surprisingly compact for the power it provides. There are two USB-C ports and one USB-A port. What sets the Ugreen apart is that you can actually draw 145 watts while charging. That works out to one USB-C port at 100 W and the other at 45 W.

    Anker 711 Phone Charger

    Photograph: Anker

    Anker

    711 Charger (Nano II 30W)

    This Anker charger is very small (unfortunately, the plugs don’t fold, see below if you want folding plugs), and supports 30 watt charging. That’ll be enough for most phones, and can also handle tablets and even possibly low-power laptops.

    Anker 713 Charger

    713 Charger (Nano II 45W)

    This Anker plug is nice and compact, with a folding plug which makes it great for travel. If you have a phone that’s capable, this is a nice way to fast charge, and this will of course be perfect for laptops, tablets, and other devices.

    Outdoor Prime Day Deals

    Birdfy Plastic Smart Bird Feeder

    I’ve been testing smart bird feeders daily for almost a year now, and I can say definitively that no smart feeder is perfect. However, if you want something at the intersection of reliability, features, and affordability, this feeder, the top pick in our guide to the Best Smart Bird Feeders, is your best bet. This model is especially appealing as it comes with both a lifetime subscription and a solar panel to keep it charged. —Kat Merck

    Hydroflask Bottle

    Hydro Flask

    Standard Mouth Water Bottle

    Hydro Flask has several types of bottles and caps available in a bunch of fun color options. You can choose one color for the bottle, another for the lid, and depending on which one you’re getting, yet another for the strap or straw. In our years of testing, this has proved the most durable water bottle.

    Ninja

    8-in-1 Woodfire Outdoor Oven

    Ninja’s cute and compact outdoor oven (7/10, WIRED Review) is temperature accurate, versatile, and adds a touch of smokiness without you needing to mess with the complexity (or size) of a full smoker. It’s idiotproof and affordable, we love it for decks and those with limited outdoor cooking space, since you can do a lot of things with it.

    Image may contain: Appliance, Cooler, Device, Electrical Device, and Mailbox

    Yeti reinvented the cooler, and we thank them for it. The rotomolded Tundra is built like a tank with 3-inch-thick insulated walls, and in our testing it kept ice frozen for six days in blazing 90-degree heat while stored in direct sunlight on Adrienne’s deck. I (Scott) have managed to get five days out of it in the insane humidity of Florida in the spring. A Yeti hard-sided cooler is the best cooler around. Note that this deal is only on the one, wine-colored Tundra.

    I like this Yeti for the wide mouth and heavy zipper that never sticks. It’s free-standing, and at 14.25 inches wide, it’s the perfect size for bungeeing to the top of a paddleboard or bike rack. It has both a grab handle on top and a shoulder strap, which provide plenty of points to carabiner a small dry bag or pair of flip-flops. As with the above deal, this is limited to a single color, “Key Lime.”

    Weber Jumbo Portable Grill

    Photograph: Weber

    Of all the portable charcoal grills I’ve tested, the Weber Jumbo Joe remains my favorite. It strikes the best balance of affordability, features, and ease of use. It’s big enough (18.5 inches in diameter) to smoke two racks of ribs or to fit burgers and corn for six people (admittedly, this was crowded) but small enough that you’ll still have room in the trunk for a cooler and camping supplies.

    BioLite

    FirePit+ Smokeless Portable FirePit

    Biolite’s FirePit+ is a sleek, portable, mesh box with removable legs, a hibachi-style grill, and an ash bin. It has a rechargeable 10,400 mAh battery that can power 51 air jets for up to 26 hours. This allows you to precisely control the flame, and to some extent, the heat of the fire. The FirePit+ can burn charcoal or wood and, thanks to the fans, you don’t need a charcoal chimney and you’ll never struggle to get a fire burning.

    Jackery

    Explorer 2000 Plus

    Our favorite portable power station, the Explorer 2000 Plus has everything you need. It’s got plenty of ports, supports fast charging, and the 2,042-watt-hour capacity will keep you running for days. You can charge it speedily from your AC outlet, but it also works with solar panels, like Jackery’s SolarSaga 200-W Solar Panel. Just be aware that it weighs a hefty 62 pounds.

    Squeeze Water Filter

    When I’m not testing something else, this is the backpacking water filtration system I use and it’s never let me down. It’s our top pick for ultralight hikers and backpackers. It weighs just 3 ounces and has a filtration level of 0.1 microns (which gets rid E. coli, salmonella, giardia, cryptosporidium, and other common problems). The Squeeze also connects to any 28-mm diameter soda bottle (your basic 20-ounce Coke bottle, for example).

    I have yet to do a trip with a satellite communicator, but I do understand why people use them. If I were to bring one along, this is the one I’d get. It’s tiny, light (3.5 ounces), and easily stashable. It utilizes the super-fast Iridium satellite network, so you can send a rapid SOS from pretty much anywhere. There are extra features like waypoints and interval tracking, and it plays nice with compatible Garmin watches.

    Best Home Deals

    KitchenAid

    Artisan Series 5 Quart Stand Mixer

    The Artisan is a design classic, but it doesn’t just look great, it performs as well. It’s got plenty of power, and the tilt head lifts smoothly so you can change attachments. You get four attachments in total, including a dough hook, a wire whip, a pastry beater, and a flex edge beater that manages to get right up to the sides of the bowl so no cake mixture is left behind.

    Image may contain: Electrical Device, Microphone, Device, and Appliance

    The best budget Dyson vac, the Digital Slim is basic, but powerful. It lacks some of the features on newer models. For example, instead of a single power button, it still has a trigger you have to hold down while vacuuming. You’ll do get a Motorbar cleaner head, a combination tool, and a crevice tool in the box. It’s not compatible with fancier accessories like the Laser Slim Fluffy cleaner head that shoots out a green laser to spot microscopic dust. We have seen the price dip lower on sale, but this is still a solid deal.

    Shark

    NeverChange Air Purifier

    As seen in our guide to the Best Air Purifiers, Shark’s NeverChange doesn’t sport a filter you never have to change but it does last up to five years. WIRED reviewer Lisa Wood Shapiro found that this is only true in very small rooms, but it’s still a great deal on a decent air purifier, which now comes in fun colors like green and lavender. (Those ones aren’t on sale, though.) —Kat Merck

    Image may contain: Electronics, Speaker, Cup, and Camera

    Photograph: Molly Higgins

    I love this pet camera from Petcube—it’s already super-affordable before the APD discount, and it has 360 PTZ rotation capabilities, 1080p HD resolution, 8X digital zoom, 2-way audio, and night vision. The camera feed rotates smoothly, and the wide fish-eye-like lens and panning abilities allow you to see pretty much the entire room. For a little over 50 bucks, this is the best camera you can buy at this price point. —Molly Higgins

    Image may contain: Electronics, Person, Camera, Animal, Canine, Dog, Mammal, Pet, Speaker, and Webcam

    Imilab

    C30 Dual Security Camera

    This dual camera has 3K high definition, with 360 degree rotation up top, and a stationary camera below for even more coverage (plus it can be mounted upside down). There’s also live view and two-way chat, night vision, and 6X zoom. AI detection alerts to things like barks, meows, loud noises, and fire, so you can receive notifications for anything alarming. I love that the dual cameras let me keep an eye on my pets (and everything else) while away, and at $60, this is a great deal for a super nice pet cam. —Molly Higgins

    Apple AirTags

    Photograph: Amazon

    AirTags can be a bit divisive, but they’re the best way to keep tabs on your stuff if you have an iPhone. Set up with the Find My app, and you’ll always know where everything is.

    Photograph: Louryn Strampe

    This is the best sleep mask overall. It’s affordable and stylish, with many different colors to choose from. It’s also soft, lightweight, and breathable thanks to its mulberry silk construction. The elastic band isn’t too tight and the mask does a solid job at blocking out most light. And I like that it comes with a drawstring case, so I don’t misplace it easily. —Louryn Strampe

    GHD Platinum plus 1

    Photograph: Amazon

    GHD has something of a cult following due to its reliability and unique features like single temperature setting (365 degrees Fahrenheit) and fun little chime to let you know it’s heated up. We tout it as a more affordable alternative to the popular GHD Chronos (7/10, WIRED Review) in our guide to the Best Hair Straighteners, and at $73 off, it’s about as good a deal as you’re going to find on a GHD. —Kat Merck

    Waterpik

    Cordless Advanced 2.0 Water Flosser

    This cordless powerhouse is compact, waterproof (yes, you can use it in the shower), and charges fast in four hours. It offers three pressure settings, four tips, and a 360-degree rotating handle that gets into every nook of your mouth. The water reservoir runs for about 45 seconds per fill, just enough for a thorough clean. It also comes with a microfiber travel bag, tip case, water plug, and universal voltage. It’s ideal for neat freaks or frequent travelers. —Boutayna Chokrane

    Philips Sonicare 4100 Toothbrush

    Photograph: Philips

    Philips

    Philips Sonicare 4100 Electric Toothbrush

    There are countless Philips Sonicare electric toothbrushes to choose from, but I keep coming back to the trusty 4100. Its gentle vibrations are easier on gums than the more aggressive oscillating brushes. You get a two-minute timer, two intensity settings, and a pressure sensor to protect your enamel. Battery life is excellent, lasting about two weeks per charge, and the built-in BrushSync tech lets you know when it’s time to replace the head. It’s simple, smart, and under $50. —Boutayna Chokrane

    Revlon

    Revlon One-Step Volumizer Plus

    We’ve loved the Revlon One-Step Volumizer Plus (8/10, WIRED Recommends) for a while. It dries and styles in one go, with its 2-inch oval barrel and four heat modes (including a cool setting). The detachable head makes it easy to pack or stash in a drawer, and the ceramic titanium tech reduces heat exposure by 50 percent. It’s a smarter (and safer) upgrade from the original version—which had recall issues overseas—and a cheaper alternative to Drybar tools. —Boutayna Chokrane
