10+ Best Prime Day Tech Deals

Amazon Prime Day 2022 is finally here, with sitewide savings for Prime members on popular categories ranging from skin care and pet products to small kitchen appliances and fitness equipment. And whether you need some new wireless headphones or a laptop, Amazon is offering notable discounts on various gadgets — from Amazon brands and national brands alike — during the sale.
