Amazon Prime Day 2024: The best tech deals we found on day two

The first 24 hours of Amazon’s October Prime Day sale brought us tons of great deals, but you still have another full day to get your shopping cart sorted and check out. Some of the discounts have expired, but many of the best Prime Day deals from day one have stuck around. We may even see new promos surface throughout day two.

Whether you need a new 4K TV, gaming gear, headphones, a robot vacuum, or a fitness-fashion-forward smartwatch, we’re extracting all the best deals on the tech that passes The Verge vibe check. You’ll find the most notable discounts below, but to help you navigate the crowded field and save your wallet, we’re maintaining lists of the best Prime Day deals under $100 and under $50. We’re also curating a list of highlights from our “favorites” series — including a selection of non-tech picks — along with Apple deals and various smart home gear.

Don’t forget, you’ll need a Prime subscription to take advantage of most deals, which you can easily get by signing up for a 30-day trial ($14.99 a month or $139 a year).

Amazon’s kid-friendly Paperwhite is the same as the standard Paperwhite, but it’s ad-free and comes with the added benefits of a two-year hardware protection plan, one year of Amazon Kids Plus, and a choice of three kid-friendly covers. Read our Kindle Paperwhite review.

Amazon’s highest-end streaming stick is faster than its predecessor with Wi-Fi 6E and double the storage. It also now displays widgets and artwork when idle while continuing to offer a terrific selection of streaming apps and Alexa integration.

The best headphone and earbud deals

With improved comfort, refined sound, and even better active noise cancellation, Sony’s WH-1000XM5 offer a compelling mix of features for the price. Read our review.

Sony’s last-gen WH-1000XM4 headphones may not be as cheap as they were a couple days ago (which, frankly, may have just been a pricing error), but you can get the blue model for $198 ($150 off) at Amazon. That’s still a good value for some excellent noise-canceling headphones with multipoint connectivity and 30-hour battery life. The XM4s were the undisputed champs of our headphone buying guide until the XM5 came along. While the new model may offer a sleeker design, slight improvements in sound quality, and better mics, they don’t fold down for easier storage and travel like the XM4.

Bose’s latest flagship headphones are a replacement for the Noise Cancelling Headphones 700 that offer a more travel-friendly design, spatial audio, better call quality, excellent comfort, and some of the best noise cancellation around. Read our review.

A hands-on product photo of Samsung’s Galaxy Buds 3 / Galaxy Buds 3 Pro.

Samsung’s premium Galaxy Buds 3 Pro sport the same stem-based design and pinch gestures as the standard Galaxy Buds 3, only they deliver better sound, improved ANC, and an in-ear fit with silicone tips.

The ultra-affordable Sony WH-CH520 have fallen to $38 ($40 off) at Amazon, which is one of their better prices to date. The wireless on-ear headphones offer a lot of value if you don’t require noise cancellation, especially since they provide up to 50 hours of playback and support for multipoint Bluetooth connectivity.
JLab’s Go Air Pop in a variety of colors are as low as $17.42 (around $8 off) at Amazon. They may be a little basic for wireless earbuds, but they carry an IPX4 rating for water resistance, 32 hours of total playing with the included case, and a variety of fun colors that make them the perfect pick for a kid (who might just lose them).
Amazon is selling Jabra’s semi-open Elite 10 Gen 2 earbuds for a new low of $199.99 ($80 off). Jabra may be exiting the consumer earbud space, but this swan song is one of its most advanced. They pack noise cancellation, physical buttons, and multipoint, but their real selling point is the included LE Audio charging case, which lets you wirelessly transmit audio from an external device.

Sony’s flagship WF-1000XM5 noise-canceling earbuds improve upon the previous model with richer sound quality, slightly more powerful ANC, and vastly improved comfort thanks to their reduced size and weight. Read our review.

With dynamic, rich sound and the best noise cancellation available in true wireless earbuds, the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds are a terrific pick if you want to listen to your music in peace. Read our review.

Olive-colored Sennheiser Momentum Sport buds in their case on top of a patterned book.

Sennheiser’s Momentum Sport earbuds mix good sound quality and noise cancellation with fitness tracking thanks to an integrated heart rate sensor. They can free up your wrists from fitness band duty while exercising, which is especially helpful for those with tattoos that block the optical sensors of a wearable.

The Shokz OpenRun Pro headphones are currently matching their all-time low of $124.95 ($55 off) at Amazon. Their open-ear bone conduction design is a great way to listen to audio on runs without tuning out the world (and any hazards) around you, and they offer up to 10 hours of continuous playback for extended runs.
Amazon is discounting the Echo Buds with Active Noise Cancellation to $34.99 ($85 off) with a wired charging case or $44.99 ($95 off) with a wireless charging case. They’re not exactly our favorite pair of ANC earbuds, but they offer an excellent passthrough mode, satisfactory sound, and support for hands-free Alexa. Read our review.
The Google Pixel Buds A-Series are a little long in the tooth now but still offer good value (especially for Pixel phone owners) at their discounted price of $59 ($40 off) at Amazon. They feature IPX4 water resistance, in-ear detection, and a comfortable fit — that is, so long as you’re okay with nonremovable ear hooks. Read our review.

The Beats Fit Pro earbuds have integrated wing tips that help keep them secure during runs and workouts. They also have excellent noise cancellation, and their sound has just the right amount of bass and kick to keep you motivated. Read our review.

Jabra’s Elite 4 Active remain a great fitness-focused earbuds if you’re on a budget. They’re smaller than Jabra’s Elite 3 and offer active noise cancellation along with IP57 water resistance, though they lack multipoint and wireless charging.

The Beats Studio Pro noise-canceling headphones are matching their Black Friday price of $169.99 (a pretty massive $180 off) at both Amazon and Best Buy. If you don’t mind a slightly dated design, they’re a very cost-effective way into some solid ANC headphones that work great on both iOS and Android ecosystems, and they also feature a very good transparency mode. Read our review.

The best charging accessory deals

A Qi2 pad on the front and a party in the back, with three AC outlets and four USB ports. It can deliver up to 67W through a single USB-C port or divided between its two USB-C and two USB-A ports.

This 93.5Wh pack has 100W USB-C output, 100W USB-C input, a DC jack for input and output, and secondary USB-C and USB-A outputs that can run in tandem. There’s an integrated screen that can show simultaneous input and output. The batteries aren’t blue like in the image.

The Shargeek 170 power bank is at a new low of $134.90 (around $52 off) at Amazon. The wedge-shaped charger looks a bit like a see-through Sonos Roam, but instead of a speaker its guts are made up of a 24,000mAh battery, capable of charging three devices at once with a total output of 170W to divvy out. It’s also IP66-rated for water / dust resistance and capable of being charged itself at up to 140W, which you can monitor on its built-in screen.
Belkin’s 15W MagSafe Charger Pad is on sale without the required 20W power supply for $23.99 ($6 off) at Amazon. It may not support Qi2 charging like newer models, but if you have a compatible iPhone, it can charge your phone at 15W with a lengthy 6.6-foot built-in cable and a convenient kickstand. Read our MagSafe / Qi2 charger buying guide.
The Kasa Smart Wi-Fi Power Strip is available for $34.99 ($40 off) at Amazon when you click its on-page coupon, dropping to a new low that even beats out Black Friday. The surge-protected strip allows you to individually control its six outlets and three USB ports without the need for a hub; it can even monitor their energy consumption.

Twelve South’s 3-in-1 charging stand offers full 15W MagSafe iPhone charging and can simultaneously top up a set of AirPods while fast-charging a compatible Apple Watch. The charger includes a power supply (with travel adapters) to deliver enough juice over its five-foot / 1.5m USB cable.

Most devices require USB-C power these days, and Anker’s 30W Nano Charger offers some of the most versatility you can get for $12.99 ($10 off) — which is the charger’s current price at Amazon. The GaN charger is tiny and easily portable thanks to its foldable prongs, and it even comes in a handful of fun colors.
Anker’s Qi2-certified MagGo Wireless Charging Station (Foldable 3-in-1) is down to $83.99 ($26 off) at Amazon, which is a new low. The portable charger — which remains one of our top picks among MagSafe / Qi2 options — can charge a compatible iPhone, Apple Watch, and pair of AirPods all at the same time.

The best tablet and e-reader deals

The 2023 Amazon Fire HD 10 sports a 10.1-inch, 1080p display and 3GB of RAM, which is plenty if you’re streaming or browsing. It’s lighter than the last-gen model, too, and comes with support for both the Made for Amazon Stylus Pen and Amazon’s handwriting recognition technology.

Google’s 11-inch Pixel Tablet uses the same Tensor G2 chip found in the Pixel 7 lineup. It’s also available with a magnetic charging dock so you can use it as a de facto smart display. Read our review.

The Amazon Fire HD 10 (2023) is on sale at Amazon with ads starting at $74.99 ($65 off) or without ads for $15 more. The 10.1-inch tablet is a pretty basic consumption device for a very low price, but the tradeoff is Amazon’s less-than-stellar app store experience.

Apple’s revamped iPad Mini ditches the home button and opts for a larger edge-to-edge display. It also comes outfitted with a faster processor, support for USB-C, and a top-mounted power button that moonlights as a Touch ID sensor. Read our review.

Amazon’s big, stylus-equipped Kindle Scribe is down to $254.99 ($85 off) at Amazon, which is one of the best prices we’ve seen on the ebook reader in recent months. It has a sharp 10.2-inch E Ink display and great battery life, though, as noted in our review, it suffers from a somewhat lackluster note-taking experience, even if it has gotten better thanks to Amazon’s frequent OTA updates.

The 10th-gen iPad in yellow, resting face up on a wooden table.

Apple’s 10th-gen iPad is the successor to the older ninth-gen model. In exchange for its revised design, landscape-oriented webcam, USB-C port, larger 10.9-inch screen, and faster processor, it ditched the headphone jack and home button. Read our review.

A screenshot of the Apple Pencil Pro taken from Apple’s Let Loose iPad presentation.

The Apple Pencil Pro offers a slate of new features, including Find My support, so you can find the stylus when it gets lost. It also touts new creative capabilities, like squeeze gestures and a “Barrel Roll” gyroscope.

The latest SE borrows a few features from the Series 8, including the same chipset and Crash Detection feature, but it’s an otherwise subtle upgrade from the last-gen SE. Read our review.

The latest base-model 13-inch MacBook Air with M3 processor, 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage is at its lowest price of $849 ($250 off) at Amazon (exclusive for Prime members) and Best Buy. The M3 Air came out earlier this year and looks a lot like the previous M2 generation, with modest improvements like a faster chip, improved Wi-Fi, and the ability to power two external monitors with the lid closed. And one of the best things that remains the same as the prior generation is the Air’s excellent all-day battery life. Read our review.
If the base 13-inch M3 MacBook Air above is too simple a configuration for you, it’s also available with 16GB of RAM and 512GB SSD for $1,249 (the same $250 off) at Amazon and Best Buy.

The 15-inch MacBook Air is also equipped with Apple’s M3 chip. It features a larger display and better speaker array than the 13-inch MacBook Air M3. Read our review.

Hands holding the silver Apple AirPods Max.

Apple’s AirPods Max feature exemplary build quality, sound phenomenal, and keep up with the best at noise cancellation. Read our review.

Both versions of Apple’s AirPods Max are on sale at Amazon for their lowest prices to date. You can get the original AirPods Max with a Lightning port for $394.99 (around $244 off), or you can opt for the updated version that’s mostly the same but with USB-C for $499.99 (about $50 off). Either flavor of Apple’s flagship wireless headphones offers great noise cancellation, transparency mode, spatial audio, and seamless integration across Apple devices like Macs, iPads, and iPhones.

The best TV and streaming device deals

The LG C4 is similar to its predecessor, with support for Nvidia G-Sync and AMD FreeSync variable refresh rate tech. However, it now sports a max 144Hz refresh rate, a brighter panel, and overall better picture quality.

Amazon’s Fire TV Omni QLED features built-in microphones for Alexa commands, low input lag, and support for two-way video calling with a compatible webcam. It also provides access to Netflix, Prime Video, Disney Plus, and most major streaming services.

The hybrid Echo and Fire TV is faster than its predecessor with extensive hands-free voice control capabilities, support for Wi-Fi 6E, and excellent performance. Read our review.

Roku’s Streaming Stick 4K is down to $34 (around $16 off) at Amazon, which is one of its better prices to date. The basic 4K streaming device offers an easy-to-use software interface and a host of solid specs — including support for Dolby Vision HDR — all within a svelte form factor that easily tucks behind your TV.
The latest Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K is going for $24.99 ($25 off) at Amazon, matching its lowest price to date. It’s hard to beat in terms of value at this price, especially given its broad HDR support for Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, but it often feels like Amazon’s interface goes out of its way to center Prime Video content and ads when possible.
If you have an older Fire TV streaming device or want to use your Echo Show 15 as a small TV, you can pick up the Alexa Voice Remote Pro for an all-time low of $24.99 ($10 off) at Amazon. It’s arguably Amazon’s best clicker, with backlighting, two customizable buttons, and a handy remote finder feature that makes it easy to locate in a pinch. Read our review.

The latest Hisense 4K TVs boast excellent value for image quality and Google Play, giving you access to a wide selection of streaming apps. They also support Dolby Vision, HDR, and HDR10 Plus.

LG’s StanbyME Go is a fun 27-inch panel nestled within a briefcase. The basic 1080p display doesn’t offer high-end specs, though it does come with a selection of preloaded games, versatile viewing options, and a wide selection of streaming apps. Read our review.

Amazon’s own Fire TV Soundbar is a 2.0-channel speaker that stretches 24 inches long. It’s got support for Dolby Audio, DTS, and Bluetooth and connects to a compatible TV via an HDMI port with eARC or ARC. Read our hands-on impressions.

The latest Sonos Beam fits into the middle of Sonos’ soundbar lineup. It supports Dolby Atmos through virtualized surround sound and offers eARC compatibility with newer TVs.

The best smartphone deals

The base-model Samsung Galaxy S24 with 128GB of storage is $599.99 ($200 off) at Amazon. Samsung’s latest entry point into its current crop of flagship slab phones has a 6.2-inch OLED display, a 50-megapixel main rear camera accompanied by a 12-megapixel ultrawide, and 8GB of RAM. It also sports a revised iPhone-like design with flat edges and a promise of seven years of OS updates. Read our review.

Unlike years past, the Galaxy S24 Plus gets the same QHD resolution as the Ultra model. Otherwise, it offers a very similar experience to the base model, only it’s noticeably bigger at 6.7 inches. That makes it roomy enough for a bigger 4,900mAh battery with 45W fast charging, too.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 on a purple and green background.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 offers slight design and performance upgrades compared to the previous generation. The AI-ready Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 now comes with 12GB of RAM and a vapor chamber for cooling. It also has a new 50-megapixel camera sensor that enables 2X optical zoom.

The OnePlus 12 and its massive 6.8-inch display is starting at $599.99 ($200 off) at Amazon — a new low price for the flagship-level phone with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. Or you can opt for a model with 512GB of storage and 16GB of RAM in green for $664.99 ($235 off). The latter is quite a value for a spec-heavy phone that focuses on everyday performance and battery life (not so much all the AI fluff). Read our review.
The midrange OnePlus 12R is on sale for $379.99 ($120 off) in its 128GB configuration at Amazon. The 12R has an excellent 6.78-inch screen with 120Hz refresh at a low price and flagship-level Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 to keep things speedy. It just lacks some extras and niceties like wireless charging and lower-spec weather resistance. Read our review.

OnePlus Open in hand showing camera array.

OnePlus’ first take on foldables is a valiant effort to improve on the big tablet / smartphone hybrid form factor. It’s well engineered and includes a compelling Hasselblad camera system but skimps on features like wireless charging and water resistance. Read our review.

Google Pixel 8A in aloe green showing back panel.

Google’s latest midranger touts a whopping seven years of software support and a number of small upgrades, including Google’s speedy Tensor G3 processor, a 120Hz display, and plenty of new AI features. Read our review.

Google Pixel 8 in pink on a pink background with red transparent squares.

The last-gen Pixel 8 comes with just a couple of key upgrades over 2022’s Pixel 7, and it misses out on several higher-end features on the 8 Pro, like a telephoto lens. But its combination of price, features, and the promise of seven years of OS updates makes it one of the best mainstream Android phones. Read our review.

The best robot vacuum deals

The iRobot Roomba i3 Plus EVO robot vacuum lying on a wooden floor.

The best bang for your buck, the Roomba i3 Plus Evo cleans just as well as the j7 but won’t avoid clutter and doesn’t have app-enabled clean zones or keep-out zones.

Dreame’s X40 Ultra is available for $1,399.99 ($500 off) at Amazon, a new all-time low. The terrific robovac offers enough suction for high-pile carpets, and its built-in mop pad can be automatically detached and left at its self-emptying station for mostly hands-off use.
The Eufy X10 Pro Omni is down to $549.99 ($250 off) at Amazon. That’s a new all-time low price on our top pick among midrange hybrid robot vacuums / mops. (As long as you’re willing to trust Anker’s Eufy brand after its security camera fiasco from over a year ago.)

The Q5 Pro has a big 770ml bin, 5,500Pa of suction power, and can be paired with an auto-empty dock, making it a great budget option when it’s on sale. It also mops with a removable mopping pad with a small built-in water tank. It has dual rubber brushes, lidar mapping, and keep-out zones, and the app is very good.

The Shark Matrix Plus 2-in-1 Robot Vacuum and Mop mops very well — doing a swingy, scrubbing movement with its rear end when in “Matrix mode.” However, you have to manually fill and attach the mop reservoir and empty the bin when it mops, as it only self-empties in vacuum mode and can only avoid larger objects.

The best smartwatch and fitness tracker deals

The latest SE borrows a few features from the Series 8, including the same chipset and Crash Detection feature, but it’s an otherwise subtle upgrade from the last-gen SE. Read our review.

The Amazfit Band 7 is an unassuming, basic fitness tracker with a bright OLED display, long battery life, and an incredible feature set for the price. Read our review.

Garmin’s Venu Sq 2 is our favorite Garmin stand-in for a Fitbit, and it’s currently going for just $149.99 ($100 off) in green at Amazon. The fitness watch sports a variety of training and health features without the need for a subscription, and its battery easily lasts over a week. Read our review.

The Mobvoi TicWatch Pro 5 is on sale for $227.49 at Amazon when you click the on-page coupon for $122 off. The fitness- and health-focused smartwatch has an Apple Watch-like digital crown for scrolling, along with a multiday battery thanks to its ultra-low-power display. Read our review.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 came out over the summer, but it’s already on sale at Amazon starting at $269 ($30 off). The latest generation of Samsung’s smartwatch doesn’t rock the boat with changes, but it offers an upgraded processor and 3-in-1 BioActive Sensor for snappier performance over prior generations. Read our review.

The best smart display and speaker deals

Amazon is discounting the latest Amazon Echo (fourth-gen) to its previous low of $49.99 ($50 off). The orb-shaped smart speaker delivers some good sound quality for its size if you choose to listen to music or podcasts on it, but one of its unique features is acting as a home hub for Zigbee and Matter, allowing it to bridge the gap to various other smart home devices with a simple Alexa voice command. Read our review.
The Echo Show 8 (third-gen), the latest version of Amazon’s midsize smart display, is down to $84.99 ($65 off) at Amazon. The eight-inch device looks a lot like previous models, but it’s got widget support for added versatility, a more responsive touchscreen, and nice-sounding speakers. Just don’t expect to take any Zoom meetings on it, as only Alexa video calls are currently supported. Read our review.
If you want a smart alarm clock with a great display and zero mics / cameras, the latest Echo Spot is on sale at Amazon for $44.99 ($60 off) with a TP-Link Tapo Smart Color Bulb. The 2.83-inch touchscreen can’t display videos or double as a digital photo frame, but it can tell you the weather when you wake up, and its accompanying bulb can be controlled via Alexa voice commands or set to turn on with your alarm. Read our review.

The third-gen Echo Show 5 turned on while on a desk in front of the window during a rainy day.

The latest Echo Show 5 is just as small as its predecessor but features updated mics and a speaker system that delivers double the bass and clearer sound quality.

The best smart home deals

Amazon’s Smart Air Quality Monitor touts a compact design, voice alerts, and automated triggers that allow it to turn on air purifiers and other Alexa-enabled devices. It lacks a display, however, and pairs best with an Echo device. Read our review.

A large silver door lock on a door above a lever handle

Expensive but with a premium feel, this smart lock is reliable, feels good in your hand, and doesn’t require switching out your entire deadbolt. You can keep your existing key, and it will auto-unlock as you arrive home. But beware of the poor battery life and prepare to stockpile those CR123 batteries.

The Meross Smart Wi-Fi Garage Door Opener offers a very inexpensive way to smarten up most powered garage doors, allowing you to open and close them remotely with your phone or give guests and family members easy access.

Blink’s Video Doorbell is the best if you’re looking for a budget-friendly buzzer that offers motion-activated recording and alerts, night vision, two-way audio, and up to two years of battery life.

The 1080p Blink Mini 2 adds weather resistance to the affordable security camera, so you can use it both indoors and out while continuing to offer a ball-and-socket mount for easy mounting to a wall. It has the option of local storage with a Sync Module or cloud storage and features like person detection for $3 a month. Read our review.

The Blink Wired Floodlight Camera is the best budget-friendly model you can get, and that makes sense because it sports 1080p video and bright 2,600-lumen lights, all for just $59.99 ($30 off) at Amazon. That’s a new low for the affordable floodlight, which also offers motion detection, two-way audio, and added smart notifications if you pay for Blink’s subscription.
The Amazon Smart Thermostat is selling for $55.99 ($24 off) at Amazon. It’s not as good a deal as its all-time low of about $42 (from a time when it used to sell new for $60), but the smart thermostat offers a very affordable way to smarten up your home HVAC. It uses Alexa Hunches to try and predict your habits and efficiently heat / cool your home, letting you save on your monthly utility bill. Read our review.
