Amazon Echo Show Prime Day deals — I found 4 deals with up to 40% off, and one even has early access to Alexa+
My house is kitted out from top to bottom with Amazon Alexa Smart speakers, but I've had my eyes on the Amazon Echo Shows for some time now, and the Prime Day deals mean this is the perfect time for an upgrade.
Right now, there are some of the best deals I have seen on these display speakers, and there's something to suit everyone. My favorite has to be the Amazon Echo Show 8 for just $109 at Amazon with a saving of 27% from $149, and it even has early access to Alexa+.
For a rundown of the best Prime Day Amazon Echo Show deals, keep scrolling!
The Amazon Echo Show 5 is available in three colors to complement any home interior; black, cloud blue and glacier white. The 5.5-inch display is more than enough to show you the latest news headlines at a glance, and if you have other Amazon devices like a Ring Doorbell, you can view the cameras and respond directly from the Echo. There is also a built in 2MP camera that you can use as an interior security camera, and even keep an eye on your pets when you pop out to the grocery store. I love than you can use the display as a photo frame, and select a slideshow of your favorite pictures to pop up in any room. While it is smaller than the Echo Show 8, it still delivers everything you need and more. Despite its size, the sound is still well rounded and dang loud! I love that I can control the music just by asking Alexa, or just tapping the screen, rather than having to rely on my phone.
This is the newest version of the Amazon Echo Show 8 and it has had some major upgrades. There is improved audio, including spatial audio, and room acoustic sensing to get the most out of your favorite music. The processor has been improved for faster responses from the display, making the overall experience so much smoother. As an added bonus, you're also getting early access to Alexa+ when you buy the Echo Show 8. There are only two color choices with the Show 8; charcoal or glacier white, but both are understated. The HD touchscreen on the Echo Show 8 is also bigger than the Show 5 at eight-inches. The camera has also had a major upgrade and is now 13MP, making it easier to stay connected and make calls with other Echo Show users (this is one of my favorite features). Pairing with your smart home hub also couldn't be easier as it supports Bluetooth and WiFi to manage any cameras or lighting you may have by using Alexa voice commands. And perhaps best of all, you can watch your favorite shows by connecting to Prime Video or Netflix, so you can keep up with your latest binge watch while getting on with your day.
This is the iteration of the Echo Show 5 just for Kids. It has all the same features as the regular Echo Show with calling enabled and access to streaming for TV and music. But is also has learn and play functions, so kids can even ask Alexa for help with their homework. Included in this awesome Prime Day deal is a 1-year subscription to Amazon Kids+, which includes kid-friendly songs, shows and audio books. With parental controls, usage limits can be set, and Alexa with also filter any explicit lyrics in songs that are playing. It's a really cool first step into the world of independence for kids.
Okay, I hear ya! This technically isn't an Echo Show, but it does have a cute display screen with the time and weather forecast. At $44, this compact speaker is an absolute steal. I have one on my nightstand at home and I can enjoy pretty great audio while the display screen shows me what's playing. This is a feature I actually love since it's a little like having the vinyl case propped up next to the record player (except not at all). Having Alexa just a shout away when I wake up in the morning is also super convenient. I have set a wake up routine so Alexa wakes me up with music, instantly putting me in a better mood than when I used the harsh alarm from my phone. While you don't get the headlines or vibrant images of the Echo Show models, the Echo Spot is more than enough to have on your nightstand, and it actually makes everything so much easier. It also comes in three colors, black, glacier white and ocean blue, to go with whatever room decor you have.

How is this RTX 5070 gaming laptop SO cheap?! Get $1,280 off now, $80 off my favorite portable SSD and more — Power Picks
Today's power picks are the real deal — I'm talking over $1,000 off an RTX 5070 gaming laptop, the best gaming monitor deal I've ever seen in 2025 and 38% off my favorite portable SSD. Given we're still in the immediate aftermath of Prime Day, I'm shocked we're seeing savings that are actually better than what we saw during Amazon's big event. That's right, every single one of these deals are the same price or lower than I saw them last week. Not only that, but every single one of yesterday's power picks are at the same price, so you still have time to get $150 off an M4 MacBook Air and a huge $920 off that RTX 5060 gaming PC! But for now, let's get into today's top deals. I nearly did a spittake seeing an RTX 5070 gaming laptop for cheaper than most RTX 5060 systems. The Hasee T8 Pro is surprisingly power-packed for $1,280 off — offering an Intel Core i7-14700HX CPU, RTX 5070 GPU, 16GB DDR5 RAM and a 1TB SSD alongside that 16-inch QHD panel with 180Hz refresh rate. From playing on a Hasee laptop myself a few months back, the touchpad will probably feel a bit mushy, and the plastic shell will feel a bit cheap to the touch. But if your focus is price-to-performance, there's no better value in gaming laptops right now. If you're going for this laptop, you need a good cheap gaming monitor to connect it to for home play, and that's where this $45 off Asus TUF Gaming VG249Q3R comes in. For under $100, you're bagging a buttery smooth 1080p panel with a 180Hz refresh rate, Extreme Low Motion Blur technology for a 1ms response time, alongside variable overdrive for those moments you need some esports-esque reaction times. For speed, reliability, durability and extreme portability, the Sandisk Extreme is my go-to portable SSD, and you can snag one for $80 off right now. It's speedy enough to run entire Final Cut Pro files off for me with 1,050 MB/s read speeds, very strong with 3-meter drop protection and IP65 water and dust resistance, and even comes with a carabiner loop to pop it on your backpack for extra security. The RTX 5060 Ti is one of my personal favorite mid-range GPUs, and its been built into this all-round beast of a gaming PC that is now $350 off with code SS10PER4. Alongside the GPU, in this Cyclone case, you've got an Intel Core i7-14700F CPU, 32GB of DDR5 RAM and a 1TB M.2 SSD. This is a packed PC ready for 1440p gaming. A gaming headset is one of the low-key best upgrades you can make to the immersion of your PC gaming, but sound is often one of the quickest to ignore. Now at $20 off for a HyperX Cloud III, one of the best wired gaming headsets you can buy with 53mm drivers, an upgraded microphone, support for DTS X spatial audio and improved durability, there's no reason to ignore it anymore!

Amazon Prime Day Is Past Its Prime
Inc.'s Prime Day wasn't such a dud after all. Or at least that's how it appears. The results of the Amazon super sale are infamously hard to parse. The company didn't provide any figures, saying only that last Tuesday to Friday was 'the biggest Prime Day event ever' and exceeded any four-day period that included the deal days. (Prime Day has historically lasted two days; this was the first time the mega-retailer extended it to four days.)

Prime Day Event Expected to Generate Record $23.8 Billion in Online Spend
U.S. retailers are expected to drive a record $23.8 billion in online spending as a result of Amazon's Prime Day event, which takes place from Tuesday to Friday. That represents 28.4 percent growth year-over-year, and $9.6 billion more than the comparable period a year ago. That's according to Adobe, which analyzes direct transactions online, covering more than 1 trillion visits to U.S. retail sites, 100 millions skus and 18 product categories. More from WWD Lauren Sánchez's and Jeff Bezos' Wedding Is Prime for Fashion Pandora, Amazon Teamed Up To Take Down Global Counterfeiting Ring Authentic Brands Group Taps Amazon Exec to Head Marketplace Effort This year's anticipated results are equivalent to two Black Fridays, which drove $10.8 billion in online spend during the 2024 holiday shopping season. Shopping on mobile devices is planned to hit an all-time high, driving 52.5 percent of online sales (versus desktop shopping) at $12.5 billion. This continues to be a growth driver for U.S. retailers, with more impulse shopping on mobile devices. Discounts are expected to continue at historically high levels — on par with the major deals consumers saw last year during the Prime Day event. Major U.S. retailers such as Walmart and Target are using Amazon's Prime Day as an opportunity to launch their own sales. Overall, discounts across U.S. retailers will be in the range of 10 to 24 percent off listed prices. Across categories, Adobe expects apparel to have the biggest deals at 24 percent versus 20 percent last year. Other categories with major discounts will be electronics at 22 percent (versus 23 percent), televisions at 17 percent (versus 16 percent), appliances at 16 percent (versus 14 percent), toys at 15 percent (versus 15 percent), furniture at 14 percent (versus 16 percent), computers at 12 percent (versus 11 percent) and sporting goods at 10 percent (versus 11 percent.) Adobe has found that consumers are expected to 'trade up' to higher-ticket items, driven by strong discounts. In fact, the share of the most expensive goods is set to increase by 18 percent compared to average levels year-to-date. In categories including electronics, the share of the most expensive goods is expected to rise by a significant 52 percent. The trend holds across sporting goods (up 32 percent), appliances (up 29 percent), furniture (up 28 percent), toys (up 18 percent), personal care (up 15 percent) and apparel (up 9 percent). Categories with a drop include home and garden (down 4 percent) and grocery (down 6 percent), as consumers embrace lower-price products. From K-12 to higher education, shopping for essentials is expected to take place ahead of the school season, which generally begins in mid-August to early September. Adobe expects an increase in online sales for backpacks and lunch boxes (up 225 percent compared to the daily average in June 2025), kids' apparel (up 200 percent) and general school/office supplies (up 180 percent). Strong growth is also expected in twin/full mattresses and toppers (up 55 percent), bedroom/bathroom linens (up 49 percent), microwaves (up 75 percent), headphones and speakers (up 150 percent) and computers (up 140 percent), which are essentials for college students. Besides back-to-school shopping, Adobe expects consumers will wait for good deals before they buy products they are eyeing. Strong growth is expected in such categories as home security products, e- readers, televisions, luggage, streaming devices, vacuums and small kitchen appliances, along with smartphones, smart home items and books. A new trend this year is around generative AI-powered chat services and browsers. During the 2024 holiday shopping season, Adobe observed the first material surge in generative AI traffic to U.S. retailers, measured by shoppers clicking on a link. Between Nov. 1 and Dec. 31, 2024, traffic from generative AI sources increased by 1,300 percent compared to the prior year. This trend continues. During the Prime Day event, Adobe anticipates traffic from generative AI sources to increase by 3,200 percent year-over-year. And while AI-driven traffic remains modest compared to other channels such as paid search or email, the growth shows the value consumers are seeing in leveraging AI to quickly find information on deals and product details. In a recent Adobe survey of 5,000 U.S. consumers, the shopping tasks respondents said they used generative AI for are conducing research (55 percent), receiving product recommendations (47 percent), seeking deals (43 percent), getting present ideas (35 percent), finding unique product (35 percent) and creating shopping lists (33 percent). Of those who have used AI for shopping, 92 percent said it enhanced their experience, with 97 percent saying that they are more likely to use AI for larger or more complex purchases. Buy now, pay later usage is expected to see a slight uptick during the Prime Day event, as budget-conscious consumers seek greater flexibility in managing their spend. During the Prime Day event, Adobe expects buy now, pay later to drive between $1.8 billion and $1.9 billion of overall online spend. This represents an 8 percent share, up from 7.6 percent last year. During the Prime Day event, paid search is expected to remain the top driver of retail sales across major marketing channels, with its expected share of revenue around 28 percent, up by 1 percent to 3 percent year-over-year. In affiliates and partners, which includes social media influencers, share of revenue is set to be 19.9 percent, but growth has been more substantial, up 16 percent year-over-year. Adobe's data also shows that influencers are set to convert shoppers (individuals making a purchase after seeing influencer content) 10 times more than social media overall. Strong spending during the Prime Day event will be driven by net-new demand, as opposed to higher prices. The Adobe Digital Price Index, which tracks online prices across 18 product categories, shows that e-commerce prices have fallen for 33 months — down 2.01 percent year-over-year in May 2025. Adobe's numbers are not adjusted for inflation, but if online inflation were factored in, there would be even higher growth in top-line consumer spend.
