The march to Prime Day has officially started. From now through July 11, Amazon is launching early Prime Day deals with discounts on TVs, kitchen appliances, fashion, and more. 

It's a dizzying amount of deals and it can be confusing because some of the items on sale today could potentially be cheaper on Prime Day. I've been covering retail holidays for over 10 years and Prime Day is no different from any other faux holiday. Yes, there will be plenty of great deals for Prime members, but there will also be plenty of mediocre deals. 

So I'm combing through this week's best early Prime Day sales and rounding up the best deals happening right now. These are deals on devices we've tested or items that are at all-time price lows.

Amazon 43" 4K Omni Fire TV: was $399 now $99 @ Amazon
Prime members can get the Amazon 43-inch 4K Omni Fire TV for just $99, which is the cheapest 4K TV I've ever seen. Note that you'll need to log into your Prime account and request an invite to buy it. (It'll go on sale during Prime Day). The 43-inch Omni Fire TV is the latest TV (released March 22) in Amazon's TV lineup. This new smaller size brings HDR 10/HLG support to a smaller 4K screen for those who can't fit a 50-inch or larger TV into their living room. In our Amazon Fire TV Omni review, we said it's solid for gaming thanks to its low lag time, but you should only buy it when it's on sale as there are better/cheaper options for your money. However, at $99 — this is an unbeatable deal and only available via Amazon.
