When is Amazon Prime Day?

Amazon Prime Day returns June 23-26 this year — a few weeks earlier than it has usually been scheduled. You can expect deals across all categories, as well as competing deals from retailers like Walmart, Best Buy, and Costco.

Are tablet deals really better during Prime Day?

For some big-name brands, Prime Day is one of the only sales events of the year during which flagship devices go on sale. It’s also the time of year that you’ll see the biggest discounts for popular devices like the iPad, Kindle, and more, so yes, it’s definitely a good time to snag a deal on a tablet.

How did we choose these early Amazon Prime Day deals?

ZDNET only writes about deals we want to buy — devices and products we desire, need, or would recommend. Our experts looked for deals that were at least 20% off (or are hardly ever on sale), using established price comparison tools and trackers to determine whether the deal is actually on sale and how frequently it drops.

We also looked over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the deals we’re recommending. Our recommendations may also be based on our own testing — in addition to extensive research and comparison shopping. The goal is to deliver the most accurate advice to help you shop smarter.
