Amazon's second major sales event of the year, Prime Big Deal Days, is set for October 6-7, but early discounts have already begun appearing. WIRED reports that its deal-hunting team, drawing on 13 years of experience, has been identifying genuine markdowns on gadgets and gear that the publication's reviews staff has tested and would recommend.
Among the featured early deals are the Google Pixel 10a at $424 (15% off), Google Pixel Buds Pro 2 at $190 (17% off), and the Roborock Qrevo 2 Pro robot vacuum at $550 (31% off). WIRED notes that some discounts, like the Smartish Side Hustle Wallet at $30, are merely "fine" rather than spectacular, while others, such as the Razer Cobra HyperSpeed at $79, match the lowest price seen so far.
The outlet says it will keep updating its coverage throughout Prime Big Deal Days and beyond, extending through Black Friday and Cyber Monday. For shoppers, the early deals offer a chance to secure discounts before the official event begins, though WIRED advises checking its tips for safe shopping on Amazon. As this is a single source, no independent comparison is available, but the report provides a curated starting point for consumers evaluating the sales event.
