We Rounded Up the 45+ Best Tech Deals for Amazon Prime Day 2021
It’s now or never on the electronic stuff you’re coveting, from earbuds to TVs to kitchen appliances.

Trying to predict all of what Amazon will include in its Prime Day 2021 lineup is like trying to predict exactly how many vehicles Dom Torreto will pit himself against in the upcoming Fast & Furious movie. Your educated guesses will only get you so far. Your fervent fandom won’t mean squat. Something entirely unexpected—like “Dodge Charger versus the International Space Station”-level of unexpected—will happen. And you’ll just have to wait until your butt’s in the seat to know the answer.
But, Prime Day is in high gear right now, so consider your butt officially in its seat. And the tech deals—some of the biggest sales that go live for Prime Day—are pretty damn hard to pass up. Apple devices are getting some discount love, as well as the usual suspects: kitchen appliances, smart home tech, headphones and earbuds, gaming accessories, and more. Below, you’ll find some various gadgets that Amazon currently has on sale, so you can snatch them up before inventory runs low (or Prime Day ends). And like we said, there’s no knowing what’ll come out Prime Day next, so stay tuned.
