LG C3 65-inch OLED TV : was $2,499.99 now $1,396.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
I reviewed the LG C3 when it came out last year, as well as the LG C4 this year, and I can tell you that while the new model is a clear step up in brightness and image punch, the LG C3 for this price is no slouch.
This is the lowest price it's been at this size, and it doesn't matter that it's an older TV because it was so future-proofed already, with four HDMI 2.1 ports for gaming, great image processing, and a good smart TV platform.
I think anyone who wants a truly premium TV for a great value will be happy with the LG C3 Al Griffin , Senior Editor, Home Entertainment

Amazon Fire TV Omni QLED 43-inch4K TV: was $449 now $299.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4/5
When I tested the Amazon Fire TV Omni QLED, I was at first skeptical. It promised a lot of features for a price that seemed too good to be true. Happily, I was proven wrong.
It delivered bright colors and natural textures, even supporting Dolby Vision (a rarity at this price). Not to mention, I found gaming to be a blast on it, even if it lacks some of the features we look for in gaming TVs like 120Hz refresh rate.
What's great news is the Omni QLED already delivers brilliant value across
its wide range of sizes, but Prime Day has made it even more affordable in fact, it's the lowest price it's ever been James Davidson , TV Hardware

Hisense 65-inch U7N 4K mini-LED TV: was $1,099.99 now $748 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4/5
One of 2024's more surprising TVs, the Hisense U7N is value personified. Testing the U7N, I was impressed at how it performed and what it offered at such an affordable price.
Utilizing mini-LED tech, the U7N demonstrated rich contrast and exceptional details, especially when given HDR sources. It's stacked with gaming features as well. It's easily one of 2024's breakout TVs and one I thoroughly enjoyed putting through its paces even holding its own against a more premium mini-LED TV.
It may not be the best TV on the market, but in terms of price vs
performance, it's a top contender. And this deal means you can get it in a 65-inch size for a price that won't break the bank James Davidson , TV Hardware Staff Writer

Samsung HW-Q800C 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos soundbar: was $997.99 now $569 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
I'm a big fan of Samsung's soundbars, as are the rest of the AV team on TechRadar, because they give you such great power and precision for a thoroughly reasonable price, and that's exactly what you're getting here. Every time I try soundbars like the Q800C (or Q990D, as I did recently), I like them more.
In our review, we called this a "phenomenally powerful multi-channel speaker system capable of unlocking the joys of a good movie soundtrack" and you can even upgrade it with rear speakers in the future, if you want even more of that.
If you've got a big TV and you want big, high-quality sound to match it, this is very hard to beat for under $1,000 Matt Bolton , Managing Editor, Entertainment

Fire TV Stick 4K Max: was $59.99 now $34.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
I believe in making use of older tech for as long as possible, and the secondary TV in my house used to be my main TV until I moved it upstairs when I upgraded a few years ago. But despite being 4K HDR, its smart TV platform isn't really holding up any more but no need to replace it! I just added a streaming stick, and suddenly I'm back up to date.
I recommend the Fire TV Stick 4K Max because it's one of the easier-to-use platforms, the voice control works well, and this Max version has a more powerful chip to avoid the slow-downs that Fire TV has been occasionally
prone to, as well as supporting every flavor of HDR and Dolby Atmos Matt Bolton , Managing Editor, Entertainment

Apple MacBook Air M1: was $999 now $699 at Walmart
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
It's getting a little old now, but the MacBook Air M1 is still a fantastic choice if you're looking for a fast and light laptop with great battery life particularly at this price.
I've owned one myself for four years and have never regretted buying it. In TechRadar's review, Matt Hanson, our Managing Editor, Core Tech, said "in my time with the MacBook Air M1 I was incredibly impressed with how it performed", and I'd agree with every word.
It's been as low as $749 previously, but this remains a fantastic deal, expecially given that it could be the last chance to pick one up now that
it's officially discontinued - Marc McLaren , Global Editor in Chief

Samsung Galaxy Book4 Pro 16-inch: was $1,749.99 now $1,299.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4/5
You know it's a good sign when the biggest criticism our reviewer has is
that the laptop looks a bit too much like a MacBook. Yes, the latest Samsung Galaxy Book is a gorgeous (if a little derivative) piece of kit, equipped
with the latest Intel Core Ultra 7 CPU and an absolutely stunning AMOLED display.
Not content with just a powerful processor and fantastic screen, Samsung has also given this beauty a phenomenal all-day battery life, capable of handling more than 14 hours of video playbook. As our reviewer Jeremy notes: "It also supports touch input. Apple simply can't compete"

Apple Mac mini with M2: was $599 now $499 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 5/5
"Forget Windows 11, this is the best PC you can buy." That's the tagline for my boss Matt Hanson's review of the 2023 Mac mini, and even as a long-serving Apple skeptic, I truly can't disagree.
The M2 chip is a beast, bringing this compact computer performance its similarly sized rivals could only dream of. And it really is tiny small enough to tuck away out of sight behind your monitor, though you won't be
able to reach the (surprisingly ample) port selection if you do that.
With Apple lowering the entry price for the Mac mini with this iteration and
a further $100 slashed off for Prime Day, this is literally the best desktop computer you can buy right now. Don't debate me on this Christian Guyton , Computing Editor

Razer Blade 15: was $2,799.99 now $1,789.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
Once you've seen one Razer Blade review, you've seen them all, as the saying (probably) goes. Yes, Razer's signature gaming laptop line consistently puts out incredible hardware, but it's all got the same problem: it's too gosh-darned expensive!
"The price is as eye-watering as ever," wrote reviewer (and my American
mirror image) John Loeffler. But he had to admit that "it's one of the best 15-inch laptops money can buy", going on to praise the performance and
design, even calling it "the MacBook of gaming laptops."
At a huge $1,010 discount, I'm very happy to say that this updated model of the Blade 15 packing the mighty RTX 4070 graphics card from Nvidia is finally an awesome deal. Also featuring a 13th-gen Intel CPU and a durable metal chassis, it's as future-proofed a gaming laptop as anyone needs to buy right now Christian Guyton , Computing Editor

LG Gram 17: was $1,999.99 now $1,699.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
We actually haven't reviewed the large-scale 17-inch model of the LG Gram since way back in 2021, where we called it "shockingly light" and "a productivity powerhouse". But here's the kicker: the design has remained almost unchanged since then, because quite frankly, LG already struck gold.
This updated model a respectable $300 off for Prime Day despite its cutting-edge internal components features an Intel Core i7-1360P processor, two terabytes of storage, a mighty 32GB of RAM, and even a dedicated graphics card: the Nvidia RTX 3050.
That dedicated GPU is vital for anyone who wants to use their laptop for content creation, and has the added bonus of accelerating AI workloads thanks to Nvidia's Tensor Cores. With more and more AI features landing in Windows
11 and beyond, it's a smart choice to nab this now Christian Guyton , Computing Editor

Acer Swift Go 14: was $579.99 now $507 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4/5
"A capable mid-range machine" was how reviewer Michelle Rae Uy described the Acer Swift Go 14 and from my discussions with them behind the scenes, that's exactly what Acer was going for.
This isn't a laptop to shake the world: it's designed to do its job well, and it manages to excel in a wide range of areas, from solid productivity performance to a sharp, vibrant display and long battery life.
"I didnt experience any slowdown even when I had 20 browser tabs open with four different streaming services playing content simultaneously," Michelle noted, an impressive feat for a mid-range laptop. If you're not one for
frills and prefer no-nonsense performance, the Swift Go 14 is a sound choice Christian Guyton , Computing Editor

Logitech C920 Webcam: was $69.99 now $49.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
While this webcam is a few years old at this point, it's still one of the best you can find anywhere, and with Prime Day, there's no better time to upgrade to a 1080p model to replace your old 720p pandemic purchase.
Former computing writer Jess Weatherbed wrote in her review: "With a perfect balance of performance and affordability, the C920 offers exactly what the everyday person needs in a webcam."
Right now, the Logitech C920 webcam is down to the lowest price we've seen in over a year, so there's no better time to upgrade your WFH setup John Loeffler , Computing Editor

Amazon Eero mesh WiFi router: was $89.99 now $69.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4/5
With the launch of a bunch of Wi-Fi 7 routers, Wi-Fi 6 models are dropping
in price, and the Amazon Eero series are among the best values out there even at full retail price.
In our review, our router guru Cliff Joseph said: "Its not the fastest mesh system around, but the Eero 6 is an affordable Wi-Fi 6 upgrade for larger homes that have a lot of computers and smart devices."
Right now for Prime Day, the Amazon Eero 6 Wi-Fi router is down to its lowest price ever, and it's not likely to go much lower, so now's a perfect time to pick one up John Loeffler , Computing Editor
Amazon Eero 6 review View Deal
Samsung 990 Pro 4TB: was $464.99 now $291.57 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 5/5
The Samsung 990 Pro is as good a PCIe 4.0 SSD as you're going to be able to find, and for 4TB of super-fast storage, this Prime Day price can't be beat.
In my review, I wrote: "With solid capacities at a fair price and the fastest read/write performance of any PCIe 4.0 SSD weve tested, this SSD should definitely be at the top of your list if youre looking to upgrade or do a new PC build."
I stand by that assessment more than a year after I first reviewed it, and while this isn't the absolute lowest price we've seen, it's still an absolute bargain for under $300. If your motherboard or console storage doesn't have a heatsink, though, be sure to select the heatsink option from the Amazon page for a few bucks more, since this SSD will run hot under heavy use John Loeffler , Computing Editor

SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless: was $349.99 now $273.95 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
When it comes to wireless gaming headsets, there are few better than the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless, which boasts premium hi-fi drivers, active noise canceling, and multi-system compatibility.
Former reviews editor Michelle Rae Uy said in her review that this "is the future of gaming headsets with its multi-device-and-platform connectivity, long battery life, amazing comfort, and...excellent sound quality."
For Prime Day, the Arctis Nova Pro Wireless is just $2 above its lowest price ever, so you'll definitely want to grab this one while you can John Loeffler , Computing editor

Sony WH-1000XM4 : was $348 now $198 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 5/5
They're a few years old now, but having compared them directly to the newer Sony WH-1000XM5, the difference really isn't that big and thanks to price cuts like this, I still think these are the best premium headphones for most people.
I love how lightweight they are, and the folding design for traveling, which the newer version dropped! And the noise cancellation and sound quality
remain impressive for this kind of price. As I said in my 2024 update to our review, these "really hit the sweet spot if you can get them for our recommended prices" and since this is their lowest price to date, you'd better believe I recommend it.
I suspect these headphones won't be around too much longer, so don't miss out on your chance to pick up a bargain Matt Bolton , Managing Editor, Entertainment

Apple AirPods Pro 2 (USB-C): was $249.99 now $168.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
I still use AirPods Pro 2 every day, despite having access to some of the
best earbuds on the planet, because I think their particular mix of sound quality, noise cancellation power, lightweight and comfortable design, and smart features hasn't really been beaten. Of course, and as you might guess, I've got lots of Apple tech, so I get the most from them.
They've been beaten in individual ways by other earbuds, but as a total package that balances elements that I personally find important including having a smaller case than the competition, for example, and better 'Find My' features than anything else on the planet they remain the buds I reach for automatically.
And this is the lowest price they've ever been. This is for the updated version with USB-C charging, released at the end of last year Matt Bolton , Managing Editor, Entertainment

Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II: was $299 now $169.95 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 5/5
I reviewed the newer, and considerably more expensive, Bose QuietComfort
Ultra Earbuds, and yet it's these older ones that I still recommend as the best wireless earbuds for noise cancellation, and it's all about value.The Bose Ultra do block more noise, but only a tiny amount more, and you pay a
lot to get there. But these beauties still block more noise than the competition, and now do it for their cheapest ever price.
I do wish that they had Bluetooth multi-point pairing and some other
mod-cons, but I can live without it for this level of silence on my train in the morning, for this kind of price.
They sound very good, of course, and stay in the ear well, though those with smaller heads may find that these chunkier buds aren't the best fit for
bijoux ears - Becky Scarrott , Audio Editor

Nothing Ear (a): was $109 now $79 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 5/5
Ah, my favorite yellow earbuds are heavily discounted, despite only being available since April 2024! And the white and black options are too, for
those of a more neutral disposition. Either way, they're my top Prime Day steal.
They got full marks under intense review, where I said that Nothing "hit a resounding home run here. The feature set, more meaningful noise
cancellation, superb sound quality for the level, comfort, and longer battery life are spot on". I actually like them more than the more expensive Nothing Ear, released at the same time, because they're practically as good, but cheaper.
I think they're the best earbuds you can get for anything like this kind of price, and much much better than cheaper Beats or AirPods options Becky Scarrott , Audio Editor

Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 3: was $99.99 now $56.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4/5
When the Wonderboom 3 came out, I was underwhelmed by it. We'd waiting a long time for the successor to the Wonderboom 2, and there didn't seem to be much change for the same price, years later. But that was based on it being full price at 41% off, I'm pretty damn positive on it!
Our review said that "between its fun design, long-lasting battery, small, light frame and outdoors mode, its a great companion for parties and gatherings, particularly outdoors ones" and I want to especially mention the design. UE has barely tweaked it from the original Wonderboom seven years
ago, and that's because it nailed it! It's tough, you can grab it in one
hand, it's funky in Hyper Pink and Performance Blue color options it's the kind of thing that brings me a bit of joy just to snatch it up and take it outside on a beautiful day Matt Bolton , Managing Editor, Entertainment

Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus (256GB) : was $999.99 now $749.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
Samsungs Galaxy Plus phones rarely prove better value for money than their standard or Ultra counterparts, but the Galaxy S24 Plus bucks that trend and then some.
This phone's display is objectively better than the one you'll find on the Galaxy S24, and it doesnt lose out on the Galaxy S24 Ultra's suite of Galaxy AI features, either. It benefits from the same Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset as its premium sibling, too, as well as having comparable battery life.
In my review, I described the Galaxy S24 Plus as "one of the best AI phones
," and at $749.99 at Amazon right now, it's never offered better value for money Axel Metz , Phones Editor

OnePlus Open: was $1,699.99 now $1,299.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
If you're in the market for a tablet-style foldable in 2024, look no further than the excellent OnePlus Open , which tops our list of the best foldable phones and is currently available for a record-low $1,299.99 at Amazon.
This Galaxy Z Fold 5 rival boasts an impressive design and market-leading cameras, and although the OnePlus Open 2 looks likely to launch towards the end of this year, we don't think you'll find a better price for the original OnePlus Open between now and October.
In my review, I described the OnePlus Open as "the only foldable phone that doesn't compromise," and while we're still in the process of testing the Galaxy Z Fold 6 , we're confident that you won't find a better
value-for-money foldable than the OnePlus Open in 2024, even after the launch of Samsung's newest device Philip Berne , Senior Editor, Mobile Reviews

OnePlus 12R (128GB): was $499.99 now $349.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
OnePlus has emerged as a real premium smartphone contender in recent years, and the company's R-series handsets often have often proven a great way to access flagship-level features at an accessible price.
The only problem? Until this year, these R-series phones were limited to India, but that all changed with the OnePlus 12R, which launched internationally in February.
In their OnePlus 12R review , our original reviewer noted that the OnePlus
12R is basically "a OnePlus 11 with a better display, a bigger battery, a simpler camera and a lower starting price," and given that we described the OnePlus 11 as a "flagship killer" in 2023, that's a pretty solid endorsement.
What's more, the OnePlus 12R is now an even more attractive proposition
thanks to Amazon's $150 Prime Day discount, which brings its price down to a new record-low. This deal gets two thumbs up from me Axel Metz , Phones Editor

Samsung Galaxy A35 5G (128GB) : was $399.99 now $299.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 3.5/5
Despite dropping one-and-a-half stars in our Galaxy A35 review , the newly released Galaxy A35 5G earns a spot on our list of the best cheap phones for its flagship-style looks, beautiful screen and capable performance.
Sure, it doesn't offer the best cameras nor the fastest charging, but given its (relatively) affordable launch price, you're still getting plenty of bang for your buck.
Indeed, our reviewer described the Galaxy A35 as "a commendable, low-cost Galaxy S24 alternative," and having used both phones myself, I can happily confirm that assertion.
What's more, at just $299.99 for Prime Day, the Galaxy A35 has never been a more attractive proposition. If you're looking for a reliable, no-frills smartphone upgrade, this is a great choice in 2024 Axel Metz , Phones Editor

Samsung Galaxy S23 FE (128GB) : was $599.99 now $449.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4/5
If you're after something a tad more advanced than the Galaxy A35 but more affordable than the Galaxy S24, then the Galaxy S23 FE is worth considering.
I described this 'Fan Edition' phone as a "solid buy" and a "huge step up
from other bargain phones" in my Galaxy S23 FE review , and it's never
offered better value for money than right now.
For starters, the Galaxy S23 FE offers a level of build quality that you just don't find in this price range. It boasts a long-lasting battery, too, as
well as excellent performance from a proven chipset and a host of advanced charging modes.
If you want exceptional cameras and a premium-looking design, you'll have to spend a bit more, but at just $449.99 for Prime Day, the Galaxy S23 FE is a great mid-range alternative to the more expensive Galaxy S24 and lower-end Galaxy A35 Philip Berne , Senior Editor, Mobile Reviews

Amazon Kindle Scribe : was $339.99 now $234.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 3.5/5
The Kindle Scribe is available for the lowest price I've ever seen. I didn't think the Kindle Scribe did much when it first arrived, but Amazon has since added more writing capabilities, including an entire section of the Kindle Book Store that is filled with books to write in. It's now my favorite Kindle and one of my favorite drawing tablets, especially for students and casual note-takers.
It's the biggest Kindle screen of the bunch, and that alone makes it worth considering. I liked taking notes and doodling, and the Kindle Scribe has solid writing features that make it a unique option for students, teachers, and avid readers like me.
For a bit more, the Kindle Scribe essentials bundle is worth the upgrade. It gives you a nice leather cover that flips up like a legal pad, as well as the Premium Pen, with its eraser tip, for a great price Philip Berne , Senior Editor, Mobile Reviews

Apple iPad 10.9 (2022) : was $349 now $299 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
There are a lot of iPad models on sale, and the one I'd buy is the reliable iPad 10.9 (2022). You can find the slightly older iPad 10.2 even cheaper, but I prefer this newer model, which has Apple's most recent design (ie. no home button) and plenty of power.
This is one of my favorite iPad models, and Apple didn't bother to update
this model with the latest iPad Air and iPad Pro refresh, because it's
already plenty fast. I'm a bit disappointed this iPad won't get the Apple Intelligence features that are coming, since it lacks an Apple M1 or better processor, but maybe that's a good thing? It's a proven tablet, no worries about future software mucking things up.
I especially love the color options on this tablet, as Apple returned to colorful designs with this model, and you can even find matching keyboard and case options Philip Berne , Senior Editor, Mobile Reviews

Apple iPad mini (2021) : was $499 now $379.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4/5
I'm not joking when I say this could be your last chance to buy the iPad mini, at this lowest price ever or any price. I've been a fan of smaller tablets since the original Galaxy Tab, but Samsung doesn't make small Tabs
any more, and Apple hasn't updated the iPad mini in a few years. If you want one, buy one now before they sell out.
That doesn't mean the iPad mini is too old. It still packs a powerful processor, even better than the iPad 10.9 (2022), and our review said this tablet has lots of power, making it an ideal (large) pocket-sized computer. Battery life was limited, of course, since this is a smaller iPad, but it's worth the compromise to carry such a small powerhouse.
I haven't heard any rumors about upcoming iPad mini replacements, so grab
this small tablet while you can Philip Berne , Senior Editor, Mobile Reviews

Apple iPad Pro 13-inch (M4) : was $1,299 now $1,199.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
I want this big, beastly Apple iPad Pro so badly, I'm looking at every discount with hunger. A $100 price cut on Apple's most expensive tablet may not seem like a big deal, but Apple devices don't get big discounts until
they are years past their prime. If you want this iPad Pro 13-inch (M4) for less, you'll take what you can get.
Our review only confirms everything I'd assume about Apple's new hotness.
It's big, bright, beautiful, and battery life is excellent. It's just as thin and light as Apple brags, and it's just as expensive as I feared. Take $100 away for Prime Day and it comes just a bit closer to my price range.
Do I need this new Apple M4 chip? I'm so curious about Apple Intelligence
that I want to have the premiere tablet to check out Apple's upcoming AI. The iPad Pro 13-inch (M4) is the way to go, and at this price, it's the cheapest it's been since it launched Philip Berne , Senior Editor, Mobile Reviews

Apple iPad Pro 12.9-inch (2022) : was $1,199 now $899.99 at Best Buy
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
Let's be honest, I don't really need the new Apple M4 chipset, because this iPad Pro 12.9-inch (2022) is faster than any tablet I've ever owned, and I'll never push this iPad, with its Apple M2 chipset inside, past its limits. That makes this $300 price cut at Best Buy an even better choice.
Sure, the newer iPad Pro 13-inch has the newer processor, but our review points out that this iPad Pro is certainly future proof, and Apple has confirmed that Apple Intelligence will be coming to this tablet in the
future, like all Apple M1 and better devices.
I love the mini-LED display on this tablet, which makes it bright and
dynamic, as well as the amazing Apple Pencil features. This is the best discount I've seen on Apple's older iPad Pro, and at this price it's a better pick than many new iPad models Philip Berne , Senior Editor, Mobile Reviews

OnePlus Pad : was $479.99 now $369.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4/5
The OnePlus Pad came out of nowhere and landed at the top of my list of the best Android tablets you can buy. For most people, the OnePlus Pad's amazing display, standout design, and easy software make it a great tablet choice at any price. With this Prime Day deal dropping the price to the lowest I've
ever seen, I'd run to buy one if you need a bargain tablet.
The OnePlus Pad looks great, and its unique aspect ratio makes it perfect for watching movies in landscape or reading the web in portrait mode. The
matching keyboard and case only seal the deal and make it a great, simpler productivity tablet for folks who don't want to wrestle with Samsung's more complicated Galaxy Tab S models.
OnePlus has announced a successor coming in the next month or so, but the OnePlus Pad is still a great tablet with performance that will last a long time. No matter what phone you have, this is a great pick at today's price Philip Berne , Senior Editor, Mobile Reviews

Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE Plus : was $599.99 now $419.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4/5
Don't be distracted by the "FE" moniker (it literally means nothing), this
is a premium Galaxy tablet, and that means it's packed with more features
than you'd ever expect. I was truly impressed by this Galaxy Tab S9 FE Plus, especially the design. It's a great looking tablet, and it's even water resistant, which means you can use it in the rain or in the pool.
The Galaxy Tab S9 FE Plus comes with a Samsung S Pen, unlike similar Apple iPad models that make you pay a lot extra for a pen. I found the Tab S9 FE Plus got great battery life, thanks to the huge cell packed behind the large display, as well as Samsung's conservative processor that only sips power.
It may not have raw power, but it has plenty of professional features, and if you want a cool, durable tablet for less, the Galaxy Tab S9 FE Plus is a
great choice Philip Berne , Senior Editor, Mobile Reviews

Nikon D780 : was $2,296.96 now $1,596.95 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
Nikon is now focusing attention on its mirrorless cameras, but there's still very much a case for Nikon DSLRs in 2024, especially when there are deals
this good: Amazon has slashed $700 off the 24.5MP Nikon D780, which is its lowest-ever price.
The D780 is Nikon's most modern DLSR and a fantastic full-frame all-rounder, combining great image quality, a weather-proof build, superb battery life and modern autofocus skills. You'll miss out on in-body image stabilization by opting for a DSLR over a mirrorless model like the Z6 II (also on sale for just $1,596.95 at Adorama, was $1,996.95 ), but having used these cameras extensively I can tell you there's a case for both DSLR and mirrorless.
You can also get the D780 with the 24-120mm f/4 lens for $2,096.95 at Amazon
, again that $700 off. If you're going to be buying more lenses after purchase, you'll find DSLR lenses are cheaper than mirrorless ones, so this D780 deal could be the best pick for serious photographers Timothy Coleman , Cameras Editor

GoPro Hero 12 Black: was $399 now $299 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
I was a little surprised when the GoPro Hero 12 Black deal popped up, after all it's the latest flagship model by the market leader in action cameras. That hasn't stopped GoPro knocking $100 off the price of the standard bundle.
The Hero 12 Black was only a minor update of the Hero 11 Black (for which there's also a superb value bundle deal that was $379 and is now just $249 at Amazon ) , but that's no bad thing given how good these models are.
DJI and Insta360 are rivalling GoPro for the throne of best action camera , but the Hero 12 Black remains our top pick overall. It boasts 5.3K video, superb stabilization and horizon levelling, plus a tough build that's waterproof and drop-proof. You won't find a better action camera for the
money in this deal Timothy Coleman , Cameras Editor

Canon EOS R8: was $1,499 now $1,199 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4/5
When the Canon EOS R8 was launched in April 2023, we said that you won't
find a better full-frame camera for the price. Well, $300 has been slashed
off that launch price and the EOS R8 can be had for just 1,199 at Amazon on Prime Day its lowest price yet. If you want Canon's smallest ever full-frame camera with a lens, there'e also an excellent value 24-50mm bundle which is now just $1,349 (was $1,699 ).
We weren't particularly excited by the EOS R8 when reviewing it because there was nothing really new. It is essentially a mashup of the entry-level EOS RP and the mid-range EOS R6 II, borrowing many features from the pricier model and squeezing them into a smaller package.
On reflection, we think the EOS R8 is a fine balance of features and of
value. You miss out on in-body image stabilization and the smaller battery means poorer battery life, but you get the same 24MP full-frame sensor and excellent tracking autofocus performance in what is a considerable cheaper camera. And thanks to Prime Day, it's cheaper than ever Timothy Coleman , Cameras Editor

Insta360 Ace Pro was $449.99 now $349.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
What do you do to muscle in on the action camera market dominated by the big players GoPro and DJI? Do something they haven't been able to do before, of course, and that's what Insta360 did with its Ace Pro the first camera of
its kind to shoot 8K video.
Best-in-class video resolution isn't the only area that Insta360 went big.
The Ace Pro has a handy 2.4-inch flip-up screen and slow motion 4K video ably supported by excellent stabilization. Photo quality is particularly good,
with the HDR mode capturing a wide range of detail, though video quality in low light could be better.
Besides being a little bulky compared to rivals, it was the asking price that was the main detractor from the Ace Pro. That's somewhat of a moot point now on Prime Day, given $100 has been slashed off the price of the Insta360 Ace Pro, which is now just $349 at Amazon . That's a decent discount for a camera less than a year old. The Ace Pro is an impressive model given this is Insta360's first foray into the wide angle action camera market, and holds
its ground against the GoPro Hero 12 Black and DJI Osmo Action 4 Timothy Coleman , Cameras Editor

Ninja AF150AMZ Air Fryer XL: was $159.99 now $89.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4/5 (based on the smaller, AF101 model)
A fantastic entry point for air frying newbies or those with smaller kitchens, the Ninja AF150 is easy to use, easy to clean, and offers fantastic results across all of its four presets and its reheating mode. It's one I've recommended to friends and family, and at this price it's a no-brainer.
It's nice and compact while still offering a respectable 5.5qt capacity, a balance many air fryers struggle to strike.
Ninja makes some of the best air fryers on the market, and the AF150AMZ is no different, which is why we're always excited to see these air fryers crop up in seasonal sales. That's especially true when we're graced with a record-low price, and one that we've only seen twice for this particular model

Nespresso Vertuo Next Coffee Machine and milk frother: was $239.95 now $167.95 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4/5
Nespresso coffee machines are among the easiest to use, and the Vertuo Next is particularly user-friendly. Simply push a button for delicious, smooth coffee in minutes.
The Vertuo Next is pretty much my go-to recommendation for coffee lovers who don't love the craft, as it allows for five different cup sizes, it barely makes any mess, and makes delicious espressos and Americanos. Plus, this bundle comes with a milk frother, meaning you can also make lattes and cappuccinos.
I've only seen the price for this bundle drop lower once before, which was during last year's Christmas sales. Even then, that was only $18 cheaper, so this is a pretty tempting offer Josephine Watson , Managing Editor,

iRobot Roomba Combo j9+: was $1,399 now $799 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
I'm always excited to see a discounted Roomba, given they're not exactly budget-friendly at list price. It's especially exciting, however, to see one of iRobot's most recently released Roombas at its lowest-ever price; a
drastic 43% discount. Better yet, the non-mopping variant, the Roomba j9 Plus is also on offer at a record-low price of $649 at Amazon .
With its impressive cleaning abilities and armed with advanced features like dirt detection so it can prioritize your dirtiest rooms, and smart scrub so that its mop can tackle hardy stains, the j9+ is a wonderfully effective and low-maintenance robovac. Best of all, it has a self-emptying dock so that it can empty itself.
You won't find a machine this good for this much of a discount outside of Black Friday, so it's one to watch Josephine Watson , Managing Editor, Lifestyle

Ring Battery Video Doorbell Pro: was $229.99 now $149.99 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4/5
The latest Ring Doorbell is heavily discounted for its first Prime Day, receiving a $60 discount that makes it a far more attractive proposition than its list price.
Offering 1536p HD Video and improved color night vision, the Ring Battery Video Doorbell Pro iterates upon its predecessor, the Battery Doorbell Plus. We were impressed by its new features like Bird's Eye View, which adds an aerial view to Ring's array of surveillance features, as well as pre-roll footage (which only works fully with a Ring Protect subscription) and dual-band Wi-Fi support. Other features like Package Alerts and advanced
video features are exclusive to the highest Ring Protect subscription
package, unfortunately.
If you want the most premium video doorbell available at a fraction of the price, the Battery Video Doorbell Pro is a must-have Josephine Watson , Managing Editor, Lifestyle

Seagate Xbox Storage Expansion Card: was $159.99 now $123.49 at Amazon
TechRadar rating: 4.5/5
Internal storage cards are arguably the most essential Xbox Series X or Series S accessory you can buy, on a pure utility factor alone. That's absolutely the case here with the 1TB Seagate Xbox Storage Expansion Card.
Usually, such SSDs are a little too expensive to recommend. But right now, at $123.49, the card has reached a record-low price this Prime Day. That's actually mighty impressive given the frequency of deals for the thing over
the years.
I love the plug-and-play simplicity of this Seagate card. Simply pop it into the internal storage card slot on your console and after a brief initial formatting, you're golden Rhys Wood , Hardware Editor, Gaming

I'm a proud owner of this storage device, and it's currently sitting in the back of my Xbox Series X, providing an extra 1TB of storage space. And I've rarely had to delete games since.

The GameSir T4 Kaleid, compatible with Nintendo Switch and PC, is a controller I routinely sing the praises of. Right now, it's matching its lowest ever price during Amazon Prime Day.
The T4 Kaleid may look gimmicky with its translucent shell and flashy RGB,

Beyond that, though, the T4 Kaleid is packing some seriously great features. Drift-resisting Hall effect sticks, delightfully tactile micro switch face
