TL;DR Amazon has announced dates for Prime Day 2025.

If you have access to Alexa Plus, Amazon's next-gen AI assistant, you can ask Alexa to notify you when a specific product you're eyeballing goes on sale.
Amazon has officially announced the dates for Prime Day 2025, and this year, it's bigger than ever. The sale will run for four full days, from July 8 to July 11, giving you even more time to score deals on a new smartphone, a pair of headphones, or just some fun tech accessories. Amazon says prices during the Prime Day sale will start as low as $3!
Along with the extended duration, Amazon is also introducing a handy new way to shop smarter this year. If you have early access to Alexa Plus, Amazon's next-gen AI assistant, you can ask Alexa to notify you when a specific product you're eyeballing goes on sale. This hack, while meant to drive usage to the $19.99/month service, could be very helpful for nabbing limited-time deals before they sell out or disappear.
Moreover, Prime members will also get alerts for 'Today's Big Deals,' which are themed daily drops that highlight some of the best and most exclusive offers. Additionally, there'll be early access to select Prime Video channel add-on subscriptions for just $0.99/month for up to two months.
If you're between 18 and 24, you can take advantage of the newly relaunched Prime for Young Adults membership at $7.49/month, which now includes perks like 5% cash back on purchases during the sale.
Amazon is already teasing big discounts from brands like Samsung, Beats, Ring, JLab, Wyze, and of course, its own Fire and Kindle devices. So if you've been waiting to upgrade, now's the time to start making your wishlist.
'Prime members can get our lowest price ever on the Blink Mini 2 two-pack and Ring Battery Doorbell with Ring Floodlight Cam Wired Plus bundle, as well as save up to 50% on select devices, including eero 6+ mesh Wi-Fi system, Fire HD 8 Plus, Fire TV Omni Mini-LED Series, Kindle Essentials bundle, and Ring Indoor Cam,' the company wrote in its press release.
We'll be covering all the best deals right here on Android Authority throughout Prime Day, so stay tuned. Can't wait? Head over to our deals section to find great discounts available right now.

This 32-inch Insignia Fire TV is only $69.99! (Record-low price)

We know this is not the most exciting TV around, but it isn't supposed to be. Instead, it is meant to be a good screen for the kitchen, dining room, or a smaller bedroom. There's also a reason why it's Amazon's top-selling TV! It is super cheap, especially right now that it's on sale for a mere $69.99. Buy the Insignia 32-Inch F20 Series Amazon Smart TV for just $69.99 ($60 off) This offer is available from Amazon, but since Insignia is a Best Buy brand, it is shipped and sold by Best Buy. We're referring to the 32-inch model, but the 24-inch version costs the same, so you can get a smaller screen if you prefer. Insignia 32-Inch F20 Series Amazon Smart TV Insignia 32-Inch F20 Series Amazon Smart TV A low-end TV for the kids or grandparents. The Insignia F20 series delivers a meager 720p 32-inch panel. But at least you also get Fire TV support, AirPlay functionality, and a low price. See price at Amazon Save $60.00 Limited Time Deal! Again, this is meant to be a less fancy screen for a bedroom, or a smaller space like a kitchen. The display measures 32 inches, and it has a 720p HD resolution, along with a 60Hz refresh rate. Again, nothing fancy, but one thing I am surprised about is that it does come with Fire TV OS baked in. This means you get access to all your favorite streaming apps, including Netflix, YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, Apple TV, and more. You can even use Amazon Luna, so it can handle high-quality games on the cloud! Because it has direct access to Alexa, you can even use the TV to control your smart home devices. You can also ask it for information, request alarms, control skills, and more. In terms of ports, you get three HDMI ports, which is actually quite surprising for such an affordable display. It also has a 3.5mm AUX port and an optical output. At $69.99, it's hard to beat this offer for the right customer. Again, keep in mind this is a record-low price. The last time we saw this TV at this low cost was back in December 2024. The offer may not stick around for long, so take advantage of this deal soon!
