Prime Day is here again. Actually, Amazon's second coming of Prime Day is now called Prime Big Deal Days--a bold choice, to say the least. We'll still be calling it Amazon Prime Day, and you hereby have permission from this humble WIRED writer to do the same. We've rounded up the best Prime Day deals under $50-- nothing feels more like a deal than when it's affordable, but it can be hard to find what's a good cheap deal and what isn't. We did the work for you (you're welcome!). Updated October 10: We've added more deals ranging from the Anker PowerWave to the SanDisk Extreme Pro. We test products year-round and handpicked these deals.

Amazon Prime Day Part II is here, and that means a fresh batch of Prime Day deals. Technically Amazon calls this Prime Big Deal Days, but like most people, we think of it as Prime Day Deux. As usual, most of these Prime Day deals require a Prime membership, but you can snag a 30-day free trial to make the most of the event. We've been combing Amazon's website to bring you the best discounts on laptops, tablets, kitchen and home gear, headphones, and plenty more. We test products year-round and handpicked these deals. Products that are sold out or no longer discounted as of publishing will be crossed out. We'll update this guide regularly throughout Prime Day by adding fresh deals and removing dead deals. If you buy something using links in our stories, we may earn a commission. This helps support our journalism. The discount will apply automatically during checkout once you meet the $40 order threshold on select products. Amazon-branded products range from home essentials like paper towels and batteries to snacks, office supplies, over-the-counter medicines, and more. This deal is an easy way to stock up on frequently-used items for cheap. Gift card deals are only worthwhile if you'd be spending the money anyway. With brands like Doordash, Instacart, Fandango, and more featured in this sale, chances are you can find a worthy discount. Each card has a unique coupon code listed on the product page. Enter it during checkout to save. Amazon devices are almost always going on sale, but this is an especially nice deal since it comes with a free smart plug that typically sells for about $20. It isn't the same exact model, but a similar Kasa plug is the top pick in our Best Smart Plugs guide. The Echo Dot (5th Gen) is one of our favorite Alexa speakers. You can use the included smart plug to do things like ask Alexa to turn off your box fan or turn on a lamp. Other Echo Show devices are also on sale, but the Echo Show 8 is our favorite. This product comes with a free trial of Alexa Together, an Amazon service that aims to replicate the tasks of a caregiver.

Amazon's second Prime Day sale event for 2023 kicked off in the wee hours this morning, and it's turning out to be a great opportunity to shop for your holiday gifts early -- or get something for yourself. And if you missed out on any of the deals from Prime Day in July, this year's "Prime Big Deal Days" will let you make up for that. The sale has brought back many of the same low prices we saw a few months ago in summer, but we're also seeing new sales as well -- including deals on brand new devices. We've also put together category roundups for deals on headphones, tablets, TVs, video games and other gadgets. If you've got your gift list handy, now's a good time to start checking it off so you won't be pressed for time or funds when Black Friday comes around next month. A few deals are just for Prime members, but many are open to anyone looking to save. If you want to take advantage of some great tech deals, here's best of what we found for October Prime Day. The second-gen AirPods Pro are the best wireless earbuds for iPhone users thanks to their good audio quality, strong ANC and hands-free Siri access.

Amazon's Prime Day sale for October 2023 is in full swing, but Walmart got the jump on its fellow retailer with a sale of its own that it launched yesterday. The Holiday Kickoff sale is like a Walmart Prime Day sale, which we've seen other storefronts host in the past. It's a way for the company to take advantage of the shopping buzz generated by Amazon -- and a way for you to save at more than one outlet. We combed through what Walmart had to offer and found the tech savings that are worth your time. One thing to note is that Walmart carries some devices that Amazon doesn't, like the Google Nest Hub, which is down to $60.

Big ticket items may get more attention, but Amazon's October Prime Day sale is a good time to stock up on the smaller accessories and items you may also need. Plenty of less-expensive gadgets are on sale right now, including smart speakers, iPhone accessories, chargers, smart home devices and battery packs -- many of which make great stocking stuffers and nice gifts for the hard-to-shop-for. We've rounded up the tech items we've tested, tried and know to be a good deal. Here are the best Amazon Big Deal Days items under $50. Amazon's Echo Dot combines the typical utility of Alexa with surprisingly decent sound.

Just one day before Amazon kicks off its October Prime Day, Walmart has launched a Holiday Kickoff sale. We've seen retailers host "anti-Prime" sales before, offering their own discounts that go live on or just before the big Amazon sales. We dove in to the deals and searched for the tech savings that are worth your time. One notable plus is that Walmart carries some devices that Amazon doesn't, like the Google Nest Hub. Other worthwhile deals include the 9th generation iPad for $1 less than it sold for during Amazon's July Prime Day and an Xbox Elite Series 2 core controller for just $88.
