It's here. The 2024 Amazon Prime Day sale is officially live, which means thousands of deals are live on the site. It's one of the biggest opportunities of the year to save big on TVs, kitchen appliances, vacuums, clothing, tablets, headphones, and most importantly, Amazon's own devices.

See all today's best Prime Day deals

As a deals editor who's covered Prime Day for half a decade, I know that Amazon's devices are always best-sellers during the 48-hour sale, thanks to ridiculously low prices and rare discounts on top-rated gadgets. This year's sale is no different, with record-low prices on Echo smart speakers, tablets, Fire TV sticks, security cameras, smart TVs, and Kindle e-readers. Some highlights include the all-new Echo Spot on sale for $44.99, the Blink Video Doorbell for just $29.99, and the Apple AirPods marked down to an all-time low price of $69.

Keep in mind that most offers require an Amazon Prime membership to enjoy the total discount. Not a member? Luckily, you can sign up for a free 30-day trial so you can shop Amazon's two-day sale.

The 25 best Prime Day device deals

Echo Pop: $39.99 $17.99 at Amazon

Echo Pop: was $39.99 now $17.99 at Amazon
Looking to buy a cheap and capable smart speaker for a small space? Amazon's Prime Day deals include the Echo Pop for just $17.99 - the cheapest Echo device you can buy right now. For that money, you get a fun, basic and compact smart speaker according to our Echo Pop review. It has Alexa built-in, so you can play music, ask questions, and check the weather completely hands-free, and connect it to other smart devices throughout the home.

Amazon Echo Spot: $79.99$44.99 at Amazon

Amazon Echo Spot: was $79.99 now $44.99 at Amazon
Amazon's brand new Echo Spot pairs a 2.83-inch touch with a 1.73-inch front-firing speaker, which might make it the ideal smart alarm clock. With Alexa onboard, you can ask the assistant for the weather, play music, or even schedule alarms. Prime members can get a first-time discount, bringing the price down to just $44.99.

Apple AirPods (2nd Generation): $129.99$69 at Amazon

Apple AirPods (2nd Generation): was $129.99 now $69 at Amazon
The older second-generation Apple AirPods are on sale right now at Amazon and back down to the record-low price we saw earlier this month. Compared to the latest model, you miss out on wireless charging support and have to compromise with a shorter battery life of up to 5 hours (24 hours total with the charging case). We'd suggest paying the extra to get the newest ones, or waiting for the previous deal price to come back, but can't deny this is good value for a pair of Apple's premium earbuds.

Fire TV Stick Lite: $29.99 $14.99 at Amazon

Fire TV Stick Lite: was $29.99 now $14.99 at Amazon
This deal on Amazon's cheapest and most basic streaming stick equals the previous record-low price. The Fire TV Stick Lite is capable of streaming your favourite content in full HD through all the major streaming apps with voice controls but is not able to control your connected TV or soundbar. A minor inconvenience in order to pay the lower price.

Fire TV Stick: $39.99 $17.99 at Amazon

Fire TV Stick: was $39.99 now $17.99 at Amazon
Amazon's standard Fire TV Stick is less than half-price for Prime Day. The streaming stick has never been this low before, so it's a good opportunity to pick one up for less if you're not a member. We found it was a cheap way to add essential smart features to your TV in our Fire TV Stick review, including access to streaming apps in HD, Alexa voice controls and the ability to control other smart home devices.

Fire TV Stick 4K: $49.99$24.99 at Amazon

Fire TV Stick 4K: was $49.99 now $24.99 at Amazon
As the name suggests, the Fire TV Stick 4K streams shows and movies on your TV in ultra-high definition 4K resolution. It's a good offer for a solid streaming stick that comes with access to all the major apps and supports voice controls through Alexa. This offer matches the previous record-low price we saw during last year's Prime Day so it's worth buying now as we likely won't see a similar offer for another four months.

Fire TV Stick 4K Max: $59.99$34.99 at Amazon

Fire TV Stick 4K Max: was $59.99 now $34.99 at Amazon
This is the lowest price we've seen for the newest version of Amazon's premium streaming device. The Fire TV Stick 4K Max streams the same content in the same quality as the standard 4K version, but the extra power inside means you get faster performance when navigating apps and searching for shows. Plus, it uses WiFi 6 technology to give you a more stable and consistent streaming experience.

Amazon Fire TV Cube: $139.99 $99.99 at Amazon

Amazon Fire TV Cube: was $139.99 now $99.99 at Amazon
