Amazon's fall sale event is heading our way and fast. Big Deal Days is mere weeks away (Oct. 6), and with it comes major savings on all the tech upgrades you could possibly desire. And here at PCMag Deals, we're spending every waking minute until the sale sifting through the depths of deals pages to find you the best discounts on big-name tech (because savings don't always wait for a sales event).
Make sure to check back here as we update this story with the best-of-the-best deals on headphones, laptops, tablets, SSDs, wearables, and more. You don't have to wait for the official event to shop and save, not when the early Prime Big Deal Days deals are this good.
Not a Prime Member?
Don't worry, you can still participate in the savings party. But if you want to score the best deals, signing up for Prime is your best bet. You can snag a free 30-day trial during the sales event to get a taste and cancel later (no judgment). But, we actually think the subscription is well worth the cost (billed at $14.99 per month or $139 per year), even if you're only an occasional Amazon shopper. There are way more Prime perks to enjoy than meets the eye!
Best Early Prime Big Deal Days Laptop Deals
HP OmniBook 3 Laptop Deal
We like to call HP one of our favorite brands for business laptops on a budget, and the OmniBook 3 sits pretty on that affordable pedestal without asking for more than a few Benjamins. Especially right now, since Amazon just shaved 22% off for an early Prime Big Deal Day treat.
Powered by a highly efficient Snagdragon X1 processor and equipped with 16GB of memory and a fair 256GB of storage, it's a very basic, lightweight ultraportable that's perfect for light workloads and easy browsing. And with its beautiful, bright, and colorful 2K OLED display, it's quite the contender to be your next daily driver. And for over $150 off, the deal is looking even better.

Best Early Prime Big Deal Days Tablet Deals
Amazon Fire HD 10 Tablet Deal
The Prime Big Deal Days sale is when we really start to see Amazon products drop to pennies, and this is one of those special deals. The Amazon Fire HD 10 Tablet won our Editors' Choice award for being one of the best tablets you could buy for under $150, which makes this 53% price drop even more shocking.
It's a solidly built device with a great 10.1-inch screen, and it packs a surprising punch in the processing and memory department. With 32GB of storage, you can download thousands of ebooks or just use it to stream, browse, or even sneak in a light gaming sesh. The cherry on top is its stellar battery life, so the entertainment lasts all day long.
TCL Nxtpaper 11 Gen 2 Tablet Deal
TCL's back at it with the early tablet deals ahead of Amazon's big shopping event. When we reviewed this budget-friendly tablet, we especially loved its beautiful matte display for comfortable reading, but it has massive potential for a note-taking tablet that doubles as your daily driver for casual use.
You can use the included 4,069-pressure-level T-Pen stylus on its crystal-clear 11-inch display, or just tap the screen to kick off a streaming or gaming session. Arguably, the best thing about this tablet is the ability to switch between three viewing modes: regular for crisp and vibrant visuals, Ink Paper Mode for an e-reader-like display, and Color Paper Mode for more artistic tasks.
Right now, Amazon has the TCL Nxtpaper 11 (Gen 2) on sale for 28% off, slashing $80 from its already affordable price. But if you're still gathering options, make sure to browse our list of the best tablets for 2026.
TCL Nxtpaper 11 Plus Android Tablet Deal
Artists, get ready to meet your new canvas: The TCL Nxtpaper 11 Plus is a drawing pad, tablet, and digital notebook all in one beautiful, 11.5-inch tablet. Its 2.2K display has a smooth 120Hz refresh rate to deliver sharp, pixel-perfect graphics, and you can control it with a tap or the included TCL T-PEN stylus. The pen has 4,096 pressure levels, so writing on the tablet will feel almost as natural as writing on real paper.
Depending on how many hours you log on your next digital painting (which can be plenty, with a battery that lasts all day), you can rest assured your eyes will be OK: The Nxtpaper 4.0 display technology uses low blue light, anti-glare coatings, and dimming to reduce eyestrain and make the screen feel more like paper. But this tablet isn't just for creatives; with 256GB of storage and ample RAM, professionals and casual users alike can multitask up a storm. Only $239.98 is a pretty delightful deal for this creative tablet!

Best Early Prime Big Deal Days Wireless Headphones Deals
Sony WH-1000XM5 Headphones Deal
If you’re going to dive into the savings spree on headphones, allow us to reveal one of the best holiday sale prices we’ve seen on our Editors' Choice award for audiophiles: the Sony WH-1000XM5s. Amazon has these premium noise-cancelling headphones on sale for a wonderful 25% off. So, if you need perfect cinematic sound to follow you through your day, these headphones are positively the right pick.
That glorious sound is powered by 30mm drivers that deliver a frequency range of 4Hz to 40kHz, and depending on how loud you jam out or how you use ANC, Sony estimates you can squeeze out a solid 30 hours of battery life. Speaking of, their ANC is top-notch and doesn’t use a noticeable—and annoying—high-frequency hiss to mask signals, unlike most noise-cancellation technology. PCMag expert Tim Gideon compared these headphones to the Bose QuietComfort 45 and Apple AirPods Max in our in-depth review, and even with that stiff competition, concluded that “the 1000XM5 over-ear headphones offer comparable noise cancellation and arguably the best sound quality of the bunch.”
Open your ears to even more Early Prime Day headphones and earbud deals.
Nothing Ear (a) Wireless Earbuds Deal
Stand out from a bland sea of AirPods with the Nothing Ear (a) buds. They make it clear that premium can come in a more affordable package—literally, they're transparent. The Nothing Ear (a) wireless earbuds rock the company’s iconic see-through design for a more unique, futuristic look. And once they’re in your ears, you can enjoy 45dB hybrid active noise cancellation, Hi-Res Audio features, and play music on two phones at once thanks to dual-device connectivity. You’ll never want to take them out, and you won’t have to (that often) with up to 42.5 total hours of battery life.
When we reviewed the Nothing Ear (a), audio expert Tim Gideon gave them an “Excellent” rating, praising their striking design and bass-heavy sound. The noise cancellation could be better, but the trade-off is a sick-looking pair of earbuds. And right now, 25% off feels pretty premium for Prime Big Deal Days savings!
Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 Deal
The Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 stand out from the crowd with their flexible ear-hooks—and boy, do they stay in place during the most vigorous workouts. You can even go upside down in a yoga pose without worrying about them hitting the deck (trust me, I speak from experience). They come with stellar active noise cancellation that tunes out the commotion in the gym or chatter on the sidewalk. Plus, they deliver rich, bass-heavy audio right to your ears to give that workout a booming soundtrack.
Our expert gave them an "Excellent" rating in our review, touting the fitness-forward buds' active noise cancellation, wireless charging, and excellent heart rate monitoring that make them the best pair of earbuds for the gym. Grab them for 20% off while you can!

Best Early Prime Big Deal Days Speaker Deals
Soundcore Boom 2 Bluetooth Speaker Deal
Every get-together needs some good tunes. But if you really want to make an impression, you should bring a little light show. That's exactly what this Soundcore Boom 2 Bluetooth speaker does.
LED lights decorate the sides of the speaker's fully waterproof design, providing a full RGB vibe. But it isn't one of our favorite waterproof speakers just for that alone, and it isn't called the "Boom" for nothing. Packing 80 watts of maximum power, it delivers loud, clear sound and huge bass (thanks to a built-in subwoofer and BassUp 2.0 tech). If the party gets a little too wild, and someone knocks the jams into the drink, don't worry. The Boom 2 can actually float and keep the party going!
We gave the Anker Soundcore Boom 2 speaker an "Excellent" rating in our detailed review. Audio expert Tim Gideon said it was a fantastic option for nighttime pool parties, so if you're trying to squeeze one more of those into summer 2026, this 23% off deal is definitely for you.
Anker Soundcore 2 Portable Bluetooth Speaker Deal
We love the sound of savings, especially when Amazon still has 33% knocked off this powerful little portable speaker. The Anker Soundcore 2 portable speaker packs 12W of power and lasts up to 24 hours on a single charge—perfect for when your barbecue inevitably runs into the evening. It also rocks an IPX7 waterproof rating that’ll keep your soundtrack safe if the elements decide to rain on your parade, but if you need to make a quick run for cover, it’s only about the size of a pencil case!
With a $44.99 list price, the Anker Soundcore 2 is already relatively affordable. But with this deal, Amazon sends it under the $30 mark! But if you’re looking for other options, check out the other best speakers we’ve tested for 2026.

Best Early Prime Big Deal Days Soundbar Deals
JBL Bar 1300X Soundbar Deal
With amazing spatial audio, an 11.1.4-channel setup, and a massive 12-inch wireless subwoofer, the JBL Bar 1300X Soundbar is the investment to make if you're after a truly immersive home theater setup. It has detachable, rear satellite speakers that you can recharge and place anywhere around your house for stellar surround sound—which you can connect to via the built-in Apple AirPlay and Google Cast. And in true JBL fashion, you can customize an array of features with the JBL app.
Sure, this soundbar might be among the most expensive we've tested—but it earned our Editors' Choice award when we reviewed it for good reason. Home theater expert Will Greenwald gave it a rare "Outstanding" rating, noting that one of his qualms was the intimidating sticker price—an issue this deal fixed. Right now, Amazon has it for 36% off, taking the $1,699.95 list price down to $1,079.95. That's $620 off, making now the best time to buy better-sounding movie nights!

Best Early Prime Big Deal Days Security Camera Deals
Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+ Deal
Knock, knock! Who's there? A massive 62% deal on this Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+ and Mini 2K+ bundle! This camera-and-doorbell home security duo is only $45.99 right now, and it pays for itself in peace of mind. They both record in 2K video with a special Head-to-Toe View to monitor everything from a tall individual's face to a tiny package on your doorstep, so no one (and no thing) is missed if you aren't there to greet them.
But if you aren't home at all, the doorbell alerts you to someone's presence and lets you have a two-way conversation as if you were standing right in front of them (with active noise cancellation to drown out any neighborhood commotion). The Mini 2K+ camera might require wiring, but the doorbell is battery-powered, making installation a piece of cake.
Eufy Outdoor Security Camera Deal
Don't want to rely on cables or regular batteries to support your home security setup ever again? Say less. Allow us to introduce you to the Editors' Choice-winning Eufy S340 outdoor security cam. Running on both battery and solar power, its dual-lenses cover up to 360 degrees of horizontal panning and 70 degrees of vertical panning, meaning virtually nothing can get out of the frame.
It also features an LED spotlight and siren in its IP67-rated weather-resistant enclosure, which will alert you to anything (or anyone) day, night, and in any conditions where the camera can pick up movement. In our review, PCMag expert John R. Delaney gave it an "Excellent" rating, where he got giddy over its sharp 3K resolution and free local video storage. That's a breath of fresh air over alternatives like Ring and Blink, if you ask me.

Best Early Prime Big Deal Days Printer Deals
Canon MegaTank G3270 Wireless Printer Deal
Every house or apartment needs a printer, and this Canon MegaTank G3270 is a great pick for you and your roommates—especially since it's 36% off right now, slashing $90 off the $248.99 list price. It checks all the basic boxes you'd expect (wireless printing, copying, and scanning) and includes an ink supply that could last up to two years, saving you money on the infamous cost of ink (and potentially get you through over half your bachelor’s). With that supply, it can print up to 6,000 black-and-white pages or 7,700 color pages using just one set of inks.
In our 2023 review, PCMag expert M. David Stone gave it an "Excellent" rating, declaring it one notch above an entry-level printer "thanks to its support for printing from mobile devices." While the 100-sheet maximum capacity leaves a bit to be desired, the low $159 sale price right now makes up for it in spades.

Samsung 990 Pro 2TB NVMe Internal SSD Deal
If you're pulling together parts for a new PC and dreading the horribly high SSD sticker prices, we have good news: Samsung has yet another SSD deal to save you hundreds—a rare thing in the RAMpocalypse, indeed! This internal hard drive is quick on its digital feet, has 256-bit AES hardware-based encryption, and much better power efficiency than the competition. We gave it an "Excellent" rating in our detailed review, and PCMag expert Tony Hoffman praised it for being "a big step forward from the SSD 980 Pro, with considerably faster sequential read and write speeds and a much higher PCMark 10 Overall score." Talk about a considerable upgrade.
It also includes Samsung's Moagician data management software, which is particularly useful for anyone with substantial storage requirements. It's a great pick for anyone who needs a little extra oomph in their PC—whether you're a gamer, creator, student, or casual user. For 39% off, you save $250 on a roomy 2TB SSD!

What Is Prime Big Deal Days?
Prime Big Deal Days is Amazon's multiday sales event that takes place in the fall, not to be confused with Prime Day, Amazon's summer shopping event. However, the premises are very much the same: they give Amazon Prime members access to discounts that are as good—if not better than—Black Friday sales that arrive in November.
The very first fall Prime Big Deal Days event was a 48-hour sales event in October 2022, but back then, it was called "Prime Early Access Sale." We know, not nearly as catchy. Luckily, Amazon picked up on that and gave a makeover for 2023, calling it "Prime Big Deal Days." Much better!
When Is Prime Big Deal Days?
Over the summer, Amazon Prime Day lasted four straight days from June 22 to June 26, from midnight to midnight PT (the company is based in Seattle). Prime Big Deal Days is expected to last only two days, consistent with its 48-hour history. That shorter time frame means you just have to be at the top of your shopping game! Don't worry, we're here to help.
Amazon announced that this year's Prime Big Deal Days sale event would begin on Oct. 6 and last for 48 hours across 35 different categories. However, that doesn't mean deals won't pop up beforehand. That's why we built this guide in the first place—to round up all the early savings that will surely spring out of the woodwork!
Is Prime Big Deal Days for Prime Members Only?
No, you don't have to be a Prime member to stock up on some serious savings. However, you might feel a little FOMO when you see all the deeper discounts that Prime members are enjoying during the sales event.
If you aren't a current member, you can snag a free 30-day trial to take home a piece of the action. After that, you'll have to pay $139 a year (or $14.99 per month) to keep enjoying the perks. And we'd recommend staying a member, especially since our expert analysis found it was worth it—even for occasional shoppers.
After you've signed up, you'll be able to take advantage of all the spectacular Prime Big Deal Days savings. You can cancel it later (we won't judge) or check out all our tips and tricks for deals, shipping, and other perks of the Prime membership.
But if you're a member of Gen Z aged 18 to 24, you can land a Young Adult Membership for half off.
Can I Get Amazon Prime for Free?
As soon as the 30-day free trial ends, you'll be billed regular Prime membership fees unless you qualify and sign up for the Young Adult Membership, which will charge you the half-off amount. However, there are still ways to save on Prime, like through a student account for $7.49 a month, where you can also earn 5% cash back on eligible products.
There is also a discount program for EBT, SNAP, and Medicaid users for $6.99 a month.
What Else Does Prime Big Deal Days Get Me?
Prime Big Deal Days doesn't just mean discounts. Amazon almost always throws partner promotions into the ring, like getting $1 a gallon off of gas (which we hope they bring back), plus other goodies on groceries, food deliveries through Grubhub, and more.
We don't have any juicy gossip on the promotions for this year yet, but make sure to check back here. We'll update as they roll in!
What's On Sale During Prime Big Deal Days?
The better question is: what isn't on sale. PCMag is proud to say that we've been covering Amazon's massive sales events for ten years, and we have yet to find a category that doesn't see some kind of promo during them. However, certain niches see much steeper discounts than others. This includes Amazon-brand products like Echo smart speakers, Fire TV devices and streaming sticks, Kindle and Fire tablets, eero routers, Blink security cameras, and more.
Besides Amazon, you can score some substantial savings on top brands like Apple, Samsung, and Google, too. And in general, expect to see massive price drops on TVs, speakers, headphones, laptops, and plenty of other tech. And don't just "expect" it when some of the deals are already live and kicking—just scroll up to see for yourself.
How Do I Find the Best Deals on Prime Big Deal Days?
Here's the funny thing: you don't. That's what we do day-in and day-out here at PCMag, and Prime Big Deal Days is kind of our Superbowl. We'll be tracking prices from now all the way up until the sale itself, using tools to ensure their accuracy and sounding the alarm when prices hit record lows.
So, sit back, relax, and let us do the deal-mining for you.
