Amazon Big Deal Days<\/a> \u2014 better known as October Prime Day \u2014 kicks off tomorrow and runs through Wednesday, bringing with it two straight days of serious savings. The fall edition of Amazon’s biggest shopping event is packed with discounts across every category, but the real showstoppers are the tech deals.<\/p>\n

If your group chat has ever devolved into an iPhone vs. Android debate or you can spot the difference between OLED and QLED at a glance, this is your time. TVs, laptops, headphones and especially Prime Day Apple<\/a> deals are already rolling out early, with some prices nearly matching past all-time lows.<\/p>\n

Highlights so far include the AirPods 4 back down to $90<\/a>, AirPods Pro 2 at $170<\/a> (about $80 less than the new model), and iPads hitting prices that easily beat<\/a> Apple’s own store. Expect more Lightning Deals and flash discounts as October Prime Day officially begins tomorrow \u2014 and plenty of opportunities to score big on Apple, Samsung, Sony, and Bose gear before it wraps up Wednesday night.<\/p>\n

Yes, the AirPods Pro 3 have arrived. But the Pro 2 are still available at a lower price. More than 10,000 Amazon shoppers snapped up these earbuds in the past month, so calling them a customer favorite is an understatement (they’re sitting comfortably in my ears as I write this). They come with more features than you may expect given the tiny package: active noise cancellation, transparency mode, USB-C charging and a snug, customizable fit.<\/p>\n

“The noise cancellation amazed me,” said this shopper<\/a>. “I have a window A\/C unit to cool my office, and when I put these in, I thought it turned off. It took me two or three times of taking them in and out of my ear to realize the headphones were eliminating the sound.”<\/p>\n

If you don’t like that feeling of having something wedged in your ear and don’t need active noise cancellation, these buds are the way to go. How are they different from the previous generation? The shorter stem gives them a cleaner look, and the new quick-press controls mean no more fumbling to pause your tunes or take a call. Plus, they fit better and stay put, so you won’t have to keep adjusting them while you’re at the gym or running to catch the train.<\/p>\n

“I decided to upgrade from my AirPods 2 and I’m impressed!” a happy listener wrote<\/a>. “Sound quality is great! Wow! They don’t feel like they’re going to fall out of my ears and [are] very comfortable.”<\/p>\n

The newest iPad is an ultra-light, thin tablet that’s powerful enough to replace your laptop for most tasks but slips into your bag with room to spare. With a spacious 11-inch Liquid Retina display, you’re swiping and scrolling in vibrant color and sharpness that makes any screen that came before it feel like an old tube TV. It’s also our pick for the overall best iPad for most users<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Why? Well, this iPad is ready to keep up with whatever you throw its way. If you’ve got a habit of toggling among a dozen apps, streaming videos and replying to messages simultaneously, you’re in for a treat. And if you’re into gaming, the graphics capabilities mean you can play even demanding games without dropping a frame.<\/p>\n

It’s been years since I stopped plugging my phone in at night, instead setting it down on a wireless charger that’s plugged in next to my nightstand. That said, some nights it isn’t sitting just right and I wake up to a dead phone. Not so with a MagSafe charger. Not only is this one $29, but it’s just a $1 more than the 1m long version, which means you won’t be stretching the cable just to plug it in to the outlet. Need one that can fast-charge? It’s just $5 more<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You really can’t beat $99 for a 40-inch TV, as long as you are okay with the basics. While it’s only a 1080p TV (no 4K, sadly), the discount on this Insignia model makes it the same price as its 32-inch sibling. Not a bad deal for an extra eight inches.<\/p>\n

You won’t get the world’s best picture quality here, but that’s fine at this price. You do, however, get access to Fire TV apps, which means you can stream content from any service you can think of. With Amazon Alexa built in, you can also control the TV and nearby smart home gadgets using only your voice.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sometimes you just want an affordable TV that does its job and does it well. That’s what you get with the Amazon Fire TV line, and this 50-inch model is down to $260. This matches its lowest-ever price that we last saw earlier this year.<\/p>\n

As its name suggests, this TV runs on Amazon’s Fire TV platform, so you have access to all of the smart TV apps you could want. It also features a 4K screen with HDR to keep movies looking crisp. If you have a lot of Amazon devices around your home, it’ll also work great with Alexa skills and smart home automations.<\/p>\n

The Apple Watch Series 11 has barely been on shelves for a week, and it’s already seeing a rare $10 discount. That might not sound like much, but Apple gear rarely dips below MSRP this soon after launch.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Series 11 builds on the previous model with a brighter always-on display, a more scratch-resistant screen and improved sleep tracking. And you’re still getting all-day (up to 24 hours) battery life, 64GB of storage and the full suite of health and fitness sensors. If you’re coming from a Series 9 or earlier, these upgrades \u2014 plus the chance to save a little right out of the gate \u2014 make it worth a serious look.<\/p>\n

Are traditional iPads a bit too cumbersome for your daily routine? The smaller, more approachable iPad mini may be right up your alley. At only 8.3 inches, it’s compact enough to hold with just one hand. And at $399, this tablet is just a couple of Hamiltons above its lowest-ever price, which we’ve only ever seen during Prime Day.<\/p>\n

“A powerhouse in a compact form, designed for busy professionals and families who need both portability and performance,” wrote one erudite enthusiast<\/a>. “Whether you’re managing work tasks, staying connected with loved ones, or entertaining the kids, this tablet handles it all effortlessly.”<\/p>\n

Thanks to AirTags, I can track my bags from drop-off to the plane to the luggage carousel. And even when the worst happens, and my bags end up in Orlando when I’m in Michigan (true story), I know where they are and how to find them.<\/p>\n

“First, we bought one Apple AirTag for my husband’s wallet. Then we bought a second one for his car keys,” said this repeat buyer<\/a>. “Now, we have a four-pack, which is cheaper, for our golf bags and checked roller bags.”<\/p>\n

Looking for the best of the best? Speaking as someone who has used one every workday for the past 13 years, a MacBook Pro is likely exactly what you’re looking for. This one \u2014 also at its best price to date \u2014 was released just a few months ago and comes with some of the latest features, like Apple Intelligence and the advanced M4 chip. It also has a 14.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR display, one of the crispest in the entire MacBook lineup.<\/p>\n

If you want to save a little on an Apple wearable, the Series 10 is still worth the investment. It boasts an always-on Retina display and comes with useful features like ECG apps, a fitness tracker and more. And while the Series 11 has just been released, it sports the same processor, same design and nearly all of the same features<\/a>. In other words, you’re getting the bulk of the 2025 Apple Watch here, but at the 2024 discount.<\/p>\n

“I upgraded from a Series 5,” said this watch wearer<\/a>. “The battery life is phenomenal, I can literally go two days without charging. When I do have to charge it, it’s full in about 30 minutes. The price is on par for the quality. The health sensors are nice. I know I have sleep apnea and never got around to taking care of it. The watch notified me after about a month of use and provides data to bring in to the doctor’s office.”<\/p>\n

It wasn’t long after buying my first house that I learned that the no-name drill that was the entirety of my tool set wasn’t going to cut it (of course it wouldn’t, I would need a saw for cutting). This DeWalt set isn’t cheap, but it’s way less than buying each of these tools piecemeal, which I can assure you, will happen. (That’s what I did. Don’t be like me.) Each of these tools end up costing you less than $80 apiece in this combo, and the carrying cases, two batteries and charger will keep everything organized and powered for when you need it.<\/p>\n

$260 at Amazon<\/a>October Prime Day FAQs<\/p>\n

You’ve got Prime Day questions? We’ve got Prime Day answers:<\/p>\n

When is October Prime Day 2025?<\/p>\n

Amazon Prime Big Deals Days will only run for two days (as opposed to the four-day event in July). The sale kicks off on Tuesday, October 7th, and continues through Wednesday, October 8th. Make sure you set a reminder so you don’t miss out on the biggest deals (and if this summer’s sale is any indicator, the best deals will go fast).<\/p>\n

What will be on sale during October<\/strong> Prime Day?<\/p>\n

Amazon is pretty tight-lipped about what markdowns we can expect once the sale kicks off; however, previous Prime Day events have proven to be some of the best times of the year to score all-time low prices on tech. We usually see major price drops on Apple products, as well as Amazon’s own in-house gadgets, like Ring doorbells<\/a> and Fire TV sticks<\/a>. (Pro tip: Amazon is apparently announcing more new devices on September 30th<\/a>, so the company may be prepping to clear even more space in its warehouses.) It’s also a good idea to get a head start on gift shopping, so you’re not scrambling in a couple of months. Why not check some names off your list before you’ve even opened your first bag of Halloween candy?<\/p>\n

Do I need to have an Amazon Prime membership?<\/p>\n

If you’re not a Prime member, you won’t miss out completely \u2014 there will be deals that non-Prime members will be able to take advantage of, too. That said, most of the best Prime Day deals are exclusive to Prime members, so having a subscription will help you make the most of the event. Thankfully, signing up can’t possibly be easier, and new members can even opt for a free 30-day trial<\/a> (after which, you’ll be charged $139 each year \u2014 don’t worry, you can cancel any time).<\/p>\n

\"Score<\/p>\n

Score these Prime Day deals well ahead of the big day. (Amazon)<\/p>\n

If you have Amazon Prime<\/a>, you\u2019ll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here<\/a>. (And by the way, those without Prime<\/a> still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.)<\/p>\n
