It’s the second day of Amazon’s four-day Prime Day sale, and if you’ve held out on making impulse buys so you can make informed purchases, you’ve come to the right place. We’ve collected the best deals we could find on everything from noise-canceling headphones and robot vacuums to the latest tablets and TVs, the bulk of which have been tried and tested by Verge writers and editors. We pbasut as much confidence in our budget-friendly battery picks as we do the pricier gaming monitors we’ve included.
Prime Day’s extended runtime this year is giving you more time to shop, though don’t wait for entirely new sets of deals to drop everyday. There’ll be some lightning deals and single-day discounts, which we’ll be sure to highlight, but the big benefit is avoiding disappointment from missing a deep discount because you slept on it. We’re delighted to see many gadget deals, including the $100 off deal on Apple’s AirPods 4 and the $50 Meta Quest 3S headset discount, are still available. We don’t expect to see them this heavily discounted again until Black Friday rolls around, and even then, these deals aren’t guaranteed to come back.
