136 Best Prime Day Deals for October 2022 (Day 2): TVs, Phones, Laptops, and More Tech

Update (10/12/22 3:13 AM ET): The Amazon Prime Day Early Access event is still running strong into day two. Many of yesterday’s best deals are still in stock, and some have even dropped further in price. As always, we’ll continue to update this list regularly throughout the day, sifting through to find and highlight the best deals that pop up so you don̵[ads1]7;t have to.

Original Post (10/11/22 03:00 ET): Amazon’s Prime Day sales event came and went last July, as it has every year since 2015. The two-day shopping event is exclusive to Amazon Prime members and features thousands of products spanning all categories. This year, the company has put a new sales event on the calendar from October 11 to 12 called “Prime Early Access Sale.” Meant to pre-empt the Christmas shopping season, it’s a smaller but still massive discount event on thousands of items.

To be clear, Amazon is still a behemoth that has done (and continues to do) many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many, many things like are objectionable, and Prime Day itself tends to be loaded with a lot of frivolous offers and deceptive “discounts” that don’t make the products significantly cheaper than they usually are. Like Prime Day, these deals vary widely in value. But among the literally tens of thousands of sale items, there are some genuinely good deals on many of the items and categories we cover here at Ars.

We spent several hours combing through the offers to compile a list of the best values ​​available. Many of the items are devices we’ve rated well here at Ars, while the rest have been well reviewed on several review sites we trust. Using tools like Keepa and CamelCamelCamel, we verified that the deals below offer prices as low or lower than they have been in the past three to six months. Many of these match the types of discounts you’ll see during other big sales events like Black Friday and Cyber ​​Monday.

The comprehensive overview below will be updated periodically throughout each day of the event to reflect changes in inventory, pricing and additional deals.
