Prime Day is Tuesday, but this weekend's Amazon deals are too good to miss

Now that Independence Day is behind us, there's only one sale on my radar: Prime Day. Amazon's summer deals-a-thon is set to begin on Tuesday and unlike previous Prime Day events, 2025 is going to be different. Amazon is treating us to four days of Prime Day deals instead of two.

That's not the only curve ball Amazon is throwing out way. The e-comm giant is also releasing an impressive array of early deals in the leads up to Prime Day. More than I'm used to seeing. For example, many Amazon devices are already on sale from $17. Kindles, Blink cameras, Echo speakers, and more are seeing the Prime Day discounts I was expecting next week.

If you have vacation plans later this summer, Amazon has dozens of great travel essentials on sale this weekend. For instance, Samsonite luggage and weekend bags are on sale from just $31. That's hands-down the lowest price I've seen from any Samsonite sale at Amazon.

Yes, there will be more deals come Tuesday, but below I've carefully picked the best Prime Day deals you can get ahead of next week. For a big picture outlook, also check out our early Prime Day deals live blog, which also includes some extended 4th of July deals.
