Props to you if you came prepared with a wishlist of items you hope to buy on sale, because it can be easy to get distracted by the thousands of other deals available during this members-only shopping event. If any of the items on your list happen to be tech or tech related, Engadget has you covered. We've scoured Amazon to find the October Prime Day deals on tech that you can get this year. We'll be updating this post regularly throughout the duration of Prime Day, so check back to see the latest discounts.

Birds are amazing, but they're hard to get a look at up close. You could buy a 5,000 zoom lens for your camera or simply get a video bird feeder. Right now, during Amazon October Prime Day (aka Prime Big Deal Days), the Netvue Birdfy solar-powered feeder is just 149. You can even get it as low as 127 if you don't mind charging the battery without help from the sun. These are the lowest prices of the year on these feeders, so don't sleep on ordering one if you don't want to miss Prime Day pricing. Note: Some of the AI-powered features on this bird feeder camera will require a subscription if you want to get the most out of it.

We study online convex optimization in the random order model, recently proposed by Garber et al. (2020), where the loss functions may be chosen by an adversary, but are then presented to the online algorithm in a uniformly random order. Focusing on the scenario where the cumulative loss function is (strongly) convex, yet individual loss functions are smooth but might be non-convex, we give algorithms that achieve the optimal bounds and significantly outperform the results of Garber et al. (2020), completely removing the dimension dependence and improve their scaling with respect to the strong convexity parameter. Our analysis relies on novel connections between algorithmic stability and generalization for sampling without-replacement analogous to those studied in the with-replacement i.i.d.

Big-ticket tech items get most of the attention during any Amazon Prime Day sale. But here, we're checking out the smaller supporting characters that make our headlining gear work better -- like chargers, storage cards, cables, batteries and the like. Many of the deals we've found on the gear we've tested and recommend are currently going for less than 50, so we've rounded them up here, separated by price point. It's proof that you don't have to spend a ton to save during this sale. Here are the best Prime Day Tech deals under 50.

If you've ever played Magic: The Gathering, then you know there's no small thrill that can match the feeling of opening a booster pack. No, you should buy single cards to build your decks. But cracking packs is a lot easier to justify when you get a discounted booster box on October Prime Day (aka Amazon Prime Big Deal Days). These M:TG sales typically sell out every year, so don't wait if you want to get a box to draft or irresponsibly enjoy. This box contains 36 packs with 14 cards each, including up to four rare cards.

Smaller yet useful tech accessories -- batteries, cables, phone cases and so on -- are what keep the big ticket items going. And Amazon's Prime Day is a good time to stock up on them. Only problem is, not everything on Amazon's site passes muster, and the cheaper stuff can be particularly questionable. Luckily, we've tested plenty of these devices for one buyer's guide or another, so we think stuff picked from this list should serve you well. Here are the best Prime Day Tech deals under 50.

Robot vacuums are some of the pricier smart home gadgets you can get, which is why waiting until a sale like Amazon Prime Day is a smart shopping move. October Prime Day is a particularly good time to check out the deals because they're typically the same (or close to) what we'll see during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. For this year's October Prime Day, robot vacuums, combo vacuum-and-mop machines and even standard, cordless stick vacuums have been discounted. We're seeing some of the lowest prices of the year on many of our top picks for the best robot vacuums you can get today, including models from iRobot and Shark. Here are the best Prime Day robot vacuum deals, and a few cordless stick vacuums on sale, that you can get.

Amazon Prime Big Deal Days is back this year, returning on October 8 and 9. The "fall Prime Day" of sorts has served as the online retailer's unofficial kickoff to the holiday shopping season for the past few years. We expect most of the deals to be Prime exclusives, meaning you must be an active Prime subscriber to get the discounts. There are always a couple of deals available for everyone, though, so it's worth perusing Amazon's site even if you don't pay for Prime. It's also worth doing so now because we've found a number of solid early Prime Day deals already available.
