The Kindle Paperwhite is basically the Goldilocks dream of the Kindle line: it’s not too big or too small, not too heavy or too light, with the screen nailing the perfect amount of clarity and brightness for an e-reader. If Goldilocks also found herself constantly wishing she had a portable charger, this Kindle would also check that box for her too, as it has a whopping 10 weeks of battery life.

Why we like it
If you’re not able to get your hands on the invite-only 50-inch Omni TV, this 43-inch TV isn’t a bad option for someone on a budget. This $110 markdown only makes the 4-Series TV even more affordable, but despite saving some dough, you’ll still get 4K resolution and support for Dolby Digital Plus.

Why we like it
This $99 price cut isn’t exactly a rare deal to see for the 2022 iPad Air, but it’s not unwelcome either. We’re big fans of how this Air comes with an M1 chip, giving it a boost of power from the standard iPads, without the boost in price that would put it in the iPad Pro range.

Our biggest qualm about the Bose 700 headphones is their price, so we’re always stoked to see them get knocked down during a sale. (And now they’re just $10 away from last December’s record-low price on Amazon.) True to form for the brand, these headphones offer excellent active noise cancellation, but unlike their other headphones, they offer 10 different levels of it, so you can customize your ANC to what feels exactly right for you. Whether you’re looking for headphones to take with you on a plane or simply need a solid pair, the Bose 700s will do the trick.

The second day of Prime Big Deal Days blessed one of the most powerful Roombas with a new all-time low price. Now officially 50% off, the Roomba s9+ has dropped below $500, easily making it one of the greatest Roomba deals we’ve seen this entire fall sale event season.
The only Roomba series that beats the s9 Series in suction power is the j9 Series, which starts at $889.99 and just came out in Sept. 2023 — which is proving to be far too recent to warrant a Prime Day price drop. And if your main goal in getting a robot vacuum is to keep up with shedding on carpet, we’d recommend the s9+ over the smarter but less powerful j6+ or j7+. The s9+ cleans with 40 times the suction of 600 Series Roombas while the j7+ offers 10 times the suction).

This year’s 15.6-inch Galaxy Book 3 360 is a lightweight 2-in-1 laptop with a pretty AMOLED touchscreen display, a 13th-generation Intel Core i7 processor, and a virtually unrivaled 22-hour battery life. (For an even longer-lasting laptop, you’d have to go with something like the 16-inch, M2 Max-powered MacBook Pro, which starts at $3,499.) The 512GB configuration is actually $25 cheaper with Prime than it is through the sale at Samsung’s website.

There are plenty of great Blink deals to choose from, but this video doorbell and mini camera bundle gets you two devices in one, for half the cost. It also comes with the Sync Module 2, which, along with a USB drive, allows for local storage of your footage.

The latest smartwatch from Samsung launched only this past August, but in classic Prime Day fashion, it’s getting a markdown. If you’re not into the Pixel Watch 2 Google just announced, Mashable’s Alex Perry wrote in his review of the Galaxy Watch that although Google’s newest watch could prove to be good competition, “fitness and health devotees will get more out of a Galaxy Watch 6 than a [first generation] Pixel Watch.”

Missing out on the now-unavailable, invite-only SodaStream deal is less of a big deal when you realize that there’s another major Prime Day SodaStream bundle up for grabs (and it’s actually cheaper than the invite-only one). The classic Terra bundle includes the sparkling water maker itself, two quick-connect Co2 cylinders, three reusable carbonating bottles, and two bubbly drop flavors. Just think of all the money — and metal — you’ll be saving by cutting back on your LaCroix habit.

The Dualshock 4 Wireless Controller features a built-in speaker and stereo headset jack, putting several new audio options in the your hands. The feel, shape, and sensitivity of the dual analog sticks and trigger button are also tough to beat.

Simply put, the Shark FlexStyle is the greatest Dyson Airwrap dupe on the market. The entry-level model comes with four attachments, but this six-accessory pack comes with a diffuser, a wide-tooth comb, an oval brush, a paddle brush, and two 1.25-inch auto-wrap curlers. And it’s still less than half the price of the Airwrap. For anyone with some texture that could benefit from using a diffuser or wide-tooth comb, this set is packed with value and saves you 15% off its usual price.

Invite-only deals (no longer available)
Note: Anyone with a Prime membership was eligible to be granted access to these invite-only deals — however, the deals were a first come, first serve situation, and all invites to each of these deals have already been claimed as we start day two of Prime Big Deal Days.
Why we like it
It’s a $200 50-inch QLED TV. Need we say more? If we have to, we’d also mention that at $200, it’s 60% off from its original list price, and that it provides exceptional color accuracy, brightness, and contrast for the price point.
UPDATE: All of the invites for this deal have been claimed, but we’re still tracking a ton of other live TV deals, including other cheap QLEDs.
