Prime Dayis here, and we’re updating this story hourly. To find the best deals in every category, follow all ofour Prime Day coverage.
It’s the final day of Prime Day, and we’ve got even more great tech deals for you. All week, the biggest and most compelling discounts have been all-time-lowest prices on Apple gear like AirPods and the Apple Watch, on TVs from Roku, Amazon Ember, and Samsung, and on tech basics like chargers and cables and batteries (and we’ve got aseparate guide to those).
We’re finding deep discounts on Amazon’s own tech offerings, of course, with near-half-off deals on things like Eero routers and mesh systems and Fire HD kids’ edition tablets. And other big brands are offering some significant deals — nothing earth-shattering, but they’re generally matching their historical low prices (we’ve checked). And there are plenty of audio, video, and networking gear deals to be had.
What’s missing? Computing and mobile device deals, given the still sky-high prices on memory, But we’re keeping an eye out for opportunities to save a couple of hundred on some select laptops and we’ll keep you posted on those.
As before, have fun, buy what you need, and watch this space.
