Since 2022, Amazon has held a second Prime Day of sorts in October and that sale event is coming back this year, too. Prime Big Deal Days returns on October 8 and 9, but we're already starting to see some decent deals pop up across Amazon's site. As per usual, most of the deals we expected to see on October Prime Day will be exclusively for Prime members -- and some of the early Prime Day deals we're seeing now have followed suit. If you don't have a Prime membership, don't fret too much -- there are always a few discounts available for all shoppers. However, if you pay the 139 annual fee for Prime, now's the time to put it to even better use.

We know the Amazon Prime Big Deal Days event is coming up soon, so it's time to start thinking about what you may want to snag at a discount during the sale. Some may shudder at the thought of holiday shopping already, but if you pay the 139 annual fee for Prime, these sale events are a great time to stock up on essentials and cross things off your shopping list well before the mad rush at the end of the year. While October Prime Day typically isn't on the same scale as Prime Day in July, we typically see some decent deals that may come back around during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. And right now, there are already some good early Prime Day deals to consider. These are the best early Prime Day deals we've found ahead of Prime Big Deal Days.

We typically see some Amazon devices, including Blink cameras, drop in price ahead of both Prime Days in July and October. This time around, Prime members have an exclusive deal available to them right now on a bundle that includes the Echo Show 5 smart display and a Blink Outdoor 4 camera system for only 60. This bundle is one that makes a lot of sense. You'll be able to use your Echo Show 5 to get a live view of whatever the Blink Outdoor 4 camera is capturing with a simple Alexa command. A bundle of the Blink Outdoor 4 camera and Echo Show 5 smart display has dropped to 60, the lowest price to date.

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.

Amazon Prime Day is finally here, and you can score excellent discounts on most of Amazon's own devices. One deal of note is on the Echo Show 5, which you can snag for only 50 right now. The Echo Show 8 is also on sale for 85, which is a new record low. The Echo Show 5 easily made our list of the best smart displays, for a great many reasons. The 5.5-inch screen is diminutive, especially when compared to the Echo Show 8, but that just makes it fit better on a desk or nightstand.

I have a love-hate relationship with my alarm. I rely on it to ensure I get up in the morning and perform important tasks throughout the day, but when it sounds in the morning, I glare at it with the fury of a thousand suns. A good alarm clock can make the waking experience less jarring -- with cool features like ramp-up lighting or pleasing nature sounds. But it doesn't stop there; the best alarm clocks have additional features like voice assistants and interactive displays that make your alarm clock more useful than ever. Picking the best alarm clock for you can be tough, especially with so many features, price points and brands.

Google's second-generation Nest Hub smart display now comes with radar-based sleep tracking as it attempts to keep Amazon's Alexa at bay. The new Nest Hub costs £89.99 on launch, which makes it cheaper than its predecessor and slightly undercuts competitors of a similar size. The second-generation unit has the same design as the original but is ever-so-slightly taller. The 7in LCD screen looks great and is crisp enough for viewing at arm's length or further, making it perfect for use as a digital photo frame. The body is now made of recycled plastic and the screen is covered in an edgeless glass, which makes it easier to wipe clean.
