38 Best Early Amazon Prime Day Deals On Products We've Tested (2025)
Amazon Prime Day 2025 is fast approaching, and the sale is already underway on some items. To help you find the best early Prime Day deals, we've scoured Amazon for deals on the tech we love. As always, every deal we recommend here is on a product our reviewers have personally tested and approved—you won't find any shoddy dupes or mystery brands here. This year Prime Day runs for four days, July 8-11, rather than the usual two. That means there's twice as long to suffer save. Twice as long to score a great deal on a new Amazon Fire Tablet, some AirPods, or a KitchenAid stand mixer. Be sure to read our explainer on all the Amazon Prime perks you should be taking advantage of. Updated Saturday June 28, 2025: We've removed a couple of sold-out deals and added new deals on HP's Chromebook x360, Surface laptops, a Samsung Watch Series 7 watch, Beats Solo 4 headphones, Sawyer Squeeze water filter, Garmin Inreach Mini 2, Petcube Cam 360, Blissy Silk Sleep Mask, and the Imilab C30 Dual Security Camera WIRED Featured Deals Amazon Device Deals Amazon's Eero Pro 6E (7/10, WIRED Recommends) is a tri-band mesh that adds the 6-GHz band to the familiar 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz bands. If you have a 1 Gbps or faster connection and lots of devices, this is a great mesh system for you. It performed extremely well in our tests, though the 6-Ghz band is short-range. This deal is for the Fire Max 11 (5/10, WIRED Review) bundle, with keyboard. The Fire Max 11 is Amazon's nicest Fire tablet, but if you're thinking of doing work, keep in mind that Google's various office apps won't work. If you don't need those, this is a serviceable tablet. The screen is bright and sharp enough, the speakers aren't bad, and the cameras are 1080p. Easily the best audiobook service, Amazon's Audible Premium Plus gives you access to a library of Audible Originals, audiobooks, and podcasts, one credit per month to use on any audiobook title you fancy, and regular exclusive deals and discounts. Prime members can have three months for free right now (one month for non-Prime members), after which it costs $15 per month. It may not be the best music streaming service, but Amazon Music Unlimited earned an honorable mention in our guide. Four months of free service for Prime members (three months for non-Prime members) will be enough to tempt some folks to try it. Apple Prime Day Deals The iPad (A16) (8/10, WIRED Recommends) has a USB-C port, a Touch ID sensor integrated into the power button, a 12-megapixel rear camera, and a 12-MP selfie camera in landscape mode (with support for Center Stage). You also get 5G on the cellular model. The A16 chip is the same one in the iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 15, and iPhone 15 Plus. It's plenty powerful, but there's not enough RAM to support Apple Intelligence, making it the only iPad in the lineup without access to Apple's artificial intelligence features (possibly a feature depending on your stance on AI). Would it surprise you to know that this is the laptop I am typing on right now? Probably not. The Air is one of the most popular laptops around and for good reason. You get a powerful, portable laptop with outstanding battery life for under a grand. If your workload is graphics-intensive, you might want to go for the 14- or 16-inch MacBook Pro, but for the rest of us the Air is the Apple laptop to get. Apple's latest AirPods Pro (8/10, WIRED Recommends) are ubiquitous for good reason. They've now got USB-C in the charging case, and this latest version sounds better than ever before. They have an IP54 sweat- and dust-resistance rating, and the noise-canceling is top-tier. Pair that with six hours of juice and a case with a speaker to help use Apple's 'Find My' feature, and you have a winning combo. The Watch Series 10 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is the best Apple Watch for most people. It does not have blood oxygen sensing, which is truly preposterous given that almost every other fitness tracker on the planet has it, but it can tell if you have sleep apnea, which otherwise requires a disruptive sleep test to diagnose. The Series 10 is thinner and lighter, so it's more comfortable to wear while sleeping, and it has fast charging, so it can track more of your activities during the day. The gateway drug of Apple Watches, the entry-level SE is a compelling deal. It doesn't have the latest standout health features, but it's compatible with watchOS 11, so you'll be able to take advantage of the new Vitals app, and it has the S8 chip, which offers support for features like Crash Detection. It remains the best Apple Watch for the money. The Beats Flex are the best headphones for Apple users under $100. They feature quick pairing, easy access to Siri, and seamless Apple Music integration, thanks to Apple's W1 chip, which ensures a rock-solid wireless connection to iOS devices. We were able to get 12-hour-plus battery life, which is good enough for a few workdays of tunes between trips to the wall charger. The Beat Solo 4 headphones offer clear and buttery smooth sound, with good instrumental separation. As you'd expect, there's hands-free Siri and Apple Spatial Audio support, and they come with a compact carrying case for easy packing. Note that there's no noise canceling or transparency mode, no auto pause feature, or water-resistance rating. For those overnight trips it's nice to have a power bank capable of charging up your Apple Watch. This Anker power bank has a handy pop-up Apple Watch charger that can deliver 5 watts and supports Nightstand mode. It also has a built-in USB-C cable and a USB-C port, so you can deliver up to 30 watts to your phone or another small device. Our top pick watch for Samsun fans, the Galaxy Watch7 features a nice rounded design—the accented 20-mm straps add a nice touch—though it is a little plain. This model infuses artificial intelligence algorithms to improve your health tracking data, like the Energy Score and updated sleep tracking capabilities. Tech Deals The Surface Laptop (7th Edition) is the best Surface device for most people. If you're looking for a lightweight and reliable Windows PC with good battery life, look no further. This deal is on the higher-end 13-inch model, with a Snapdragon X Elite processor, 16-GB RAM, and a 1-TB SSD. Performance was excellent in our testing, although this is not a machine for graphics-intensive tasks like video editing or gaming. HP's Chromebook Plus x360 is a good 2-in-1 Chromebook. Its design is nondescript, but the Intel Core i3 chip is plenty speedy for Chromebook workloads, it's lightweight, and the 2-in-1 design means you can watch movies in tent mode. The speakers sound decent and get surprisingly loud, and the 1,920 X 1,200-pixel resolution is sharp on this 14-inch IPS LCD panel. This Wi-Fi 7 mesh router offers expansive coverage and it very fast on all bands. You get a good selection of multi-gig Ethernet ports and it's easy to set up and use. The downside is the price, but this deal helps out with that. You'll need a HomeShield Pro subscription for online protection and full parental controls. This little power bank has a 25,000-mAh capacity and can deliver up to 165 watts to two devices (it tops out at 100 watts for a single device connected via USB-C). The retractable cable is nice, and the clever braided 1-foot USB-C cable doubles as a carry loop. It has a display to show the remaining battery, charging rate in and out, battery temperature, and health. Ugreen's 145-watt charger, with 25,000-mAh battery, is surprisingly compact for the power it provides. There are two USB-C ports and one USB-A port. What sets the Ugreen apart is that you can actually draw 145 watts while charging. That works out to one USB-C port at 100 W and the other at 45 W. This Anker charger is very small (unfortunately, the plugs don't fold, see below if you want folding plugs), and supports 30 watt charging. That'll be enough for most phones, and can also handle tablets and even possibly low-power laptops. This Anker plug is nice and compact, with a folding plug which makes it great for travel. If you have a phone that's capable, this is a nice way to fast charge, and this will of course be perfect for laptops, tablets, and other devices. Outdoor Prime Day Deals I've been testing smart bird feeders daily for almost a year now, and I can say definitively that no smart feeder is perfect. However, if you want something at the intersection of reliability, features, and affordability, this feeder, the top pick in our guide to the Best Smart Bird Feeders, is your best bet. This model is especially appealing as it comes with both a lifetime subscription and a solar panel to keep it charged. —Kat Merck Hydro Flask has several types of bottles and caps available in a bunch of fun color options. You can choose one color for the bottle, another for the lid, and depending on which one you're getting, yet another for the strap or straw. In our years of testing, this has proved the most durable water bottle. Ninja's cute and compact outdoor oven (7/10, WIRED Review) is temperature accurate, versatile, and adds a touch of smokiness without you needing to mess with the complexity (or size) of a full smoker. It's idiotproof and affordable, we love it for decks and those with limited outdoor cooking space, since you can do a lot of things with it. Yeti reinvented the cooler, and we thank them for it. The rotomolded Tundra is built like a tank with 3-inch-thick insulated walls, and in our testing it kept ice frozen for six days in blazing 90-degree heat while stored in direct sunlight on Adrienne's deck. I (Scott) have managed to get five days out of it in the insane humidity of Florida in the spring. A Yeti hard-sided cooler is the best cooler around. Note that this deal is only on the one, wine-colored Tundra. I like this Yeti for the wide mouth and heavy zipper that never sticks. It's free-standing, and at 14.25 inches wide, it's the perfect size for bungeeing to the top of a paddleboard or bike rack. It has both a grab handle on top and a shoulder strap, which provide plenty of points to carabiner a small dry bag or pair of flip-flops. As with the above deal, this is limited to a single color, 'Key Lime.' Of all the portable charcoal grills I've tested, the Weber Jumbo Joe remains my favorite. It strikes the best balance of affordability, features, and ease of use. It's big enough (18.5 inches in diameter) to smoke two racks of ribs or to fit burgers and corn for six people (admittedly, this was crowded) but small enough that you'll still have room in the trunk for a cooler and camping supplies. Biolite's FirePit+ is a sleek, portable, mesh box with removable legs, a hibachi-style grill, and an ash bin. It has a rechargeable 10,400 mAh battery that can power 51 air jets for up to 26 hours. This allows you to precisely control the flame, and to some extent, the heat of the fire. The FirePit+ can burn charcoal or wood and, thanks to the fans, you don't need a charcoal chimney and you'll never struggle to get a fire burning. Our favorite portable power station, the Explorer 2000 Plus has everything you need. It's got plenty of ports, supports fast charging, and the 2,042-watt-hour capacity will keep you running for days. You can charge it speedily from your AC outlet, but it also works with solar panels, like Jackery's SolarSaga 200-W Solar Panel. Just be aware that it weighs a hefty 62 pounds. When I'm not testing something else, this is the backpacking water filtration system I use and it's never let me down. It's our top pick for ultralight hikers and backpackers. It weighs just 3 ounces and has a filtration level of 0.1 microns (which gets rid E. coli, salmonella, giardia, cryptosporidium, and other common problems). The Squeeze also connects to any 28-mm diameter soda bottle (your basic 20-ounce Coke bottle, for example). I have yet to do a trip with a satellite communicator, but I do understand why people use them. If I were to bring one along, this is the one I'd get. It's tiny, light (3.5 ounces), and easily stashable. It utilizes the super-fast Iridium satellite network, so you can send a rapid SOS from pretty much anywhere. There are extra features like waypoints and interval tracking, and it plays nice with compatible Garmin watches. Best Home Deals The Artisan is a design classic, but it doesn't just look great, it performs as well. It's got plenty of power, and the tilt head lifts smoothly so you can change attachments. You get four attachments in total, including a dough hook, a wire whip, a pastry beater, and a flex edge beater that manages to get right up to the sides of the bowl so no cake mixture is left behind. The best budget Dyson vac, the Digital Slim is basic, but powerful. It lacks some of the features on newer models. For example, instead of a single power button, it still has a trigger you have to hold down while vacuuming. You'll do get a Motorbar cleaner head, a combination tool, and a crevice tool in the box. It's not compatible with fancier accessories like the Laser Slim Fluffy cleaner head that shoots out a green laser to spot microscopic dust. We have seen the price dip lower on sale, but this is still a solid deal. As seen in our guide to the Best Air Purifiers, Shark's NeverChange doesn't sport a filter you never have to change but it does last up to five years. WIRED reviewer Lisa Wood Shapiro found that this is only true in very small rooms, but it's still a great deal on a decent air purifier, which now comes in fun colors like green and lavender. (Those ones aren't on sale, though.) —Kat Merck I love this pet camera from Petcube—it's already super-affordable before the APD discount, and it has 360 PTZ rotation capabilities, 1080p HD resolution, 8X digital zoom, 2-way audio, and night vision. The camera feed rotates smoothly, and the wide fish-eye-like lens and panning abilities allow you to see pretty much the entire room. For a little over 50 bucks, this is the best camera you can buy at this price point. —Molly Higgins This dual camera has 3K high definition, with 360 degree rotation up top, and a stationary camera below for even more coverage (plus it can be mounted upside down). There's also live view and two-way chat, night vision, and 6X zoom. AI detection alerts to things like barks, meows, loud noises, and fire, so you can receive notifications for anything alarming. I love that the dual cameras let me keep an eye on my pets (and everything else) while away, and at $60, this is a great deal for a super nice pet cam. —Molly Higgins AirTags can be a bit divisive, but they're the best way to keep tabs on your stuff if you have an iPhone. Set up with the Find My app, and you'll always know where everything is. This is the best sleep mask overall. It's affordable and stylish, with many different colors to choose from. It's also soft, lightweight, and breathable thanks to its mulberry silk construction. The elastic band isn't too tight and the mask does a solid job at blocking out most light. And I like that it comes with a drawstring case, so I don't misplace it easily. —Louryn Strampe GHD has something of a cult following due to its reliability and unique features like single temperature setting (365 degrees Fahrenheit) and fun little chime to let you know it's heated up. We tout it as a more affordable alternative to the popular GHD Chronos (7/10, WIRED Review) in our guide to the Best Hair Straighteners, and at $73 off, it's about as good a deal as you're going to find on a GHD. —Kat Merck This cordless powerhouse is compact, waterproof (yes, you can use it in the shower), and charges fast in four hours. It offers three pressure settings, four tips, and a 360-degree rotating handle that gets into every nook of your mouth. The water reservoir runs for about 45 seconds per fill, just enough for a thorough clean. It also comes with a microfiber travel bag, tip case, water plug, and universal voltage. It's ideal for neat freaks or frequent travelers. —Boutayna Chokrane There are countless Philips Sonicare electric toothbrushes to choose from, but I keep coming back to the trusty 4100. Its gentle vibrations are easier on gums than the more aggressive oscillating brushes. You get a two-minute timer, two intensity settings, and a pressure sensor to protect your enamel. Battery life is excellent, lasting about two weeks per charge, and the built-in BrushSync tech lets you know when it's time to replace the head. It's simple, smart, and under $50. —Boutayna Chokrane We've loved the Revlon One-Step Volumizer Plus (8/10, WIRED Recommends) for a while. It dries and styles in one go, with its 2-inch oval barrel and four heat modes (including a cool setting). The detachable head makes it easy to pack or stash in a drawer, and the ceramic titanium tech reduces heat exposure by 50 percent. It's a smarter (and safer) upgrade from the original version—which had recall issues overseas—and a cheaper alternative to Drybar tools. —Boutayna Chokrane

This overlooked risk to financial markets usually lurks quietly under the surface. But now it's ‘shouting, not whispering'
Much attention has been focused on the U.S. current account deficit, or the imbalance between imports and export, but there's another metric that's poised to amplify market shocks. That's the net international investment position, according to Kevin Ford, FX and macro strategist at Convera, who likens it to America's financial scorecard with the rest of the world. President Donald Trump's trade war has focused much of Wall Street's attention on the U.S. current account deficit, or the imbalance between imports and exports. But there's another metric worth following that could worsen financial risks. According to Kevin Ford, FX and macro strategist at Convera, the country's net international investment position (NIIP) often gets overlooked. It measures how much the U.S. owns abroad versus how much the world owns in the U.S., he said in a note last week, describing it as America's financial scorecard with the rest of the world. And by that score, the U.S. is in the red by about $26 trillion, or nearly 80% of GDP. 'That means foreign investors hold way more American assets than Americans hold abroad,' Ford added. 'It's a setup that works fine when confidence is high, but in shaky times like 2025, it can become a pressure cooker.' Indeed, times have been shaky. The U.S. Dollar Index is down 10% so far this year as the shock of Trump's 'Liberation Day' tariffs continues to reverberate, creating doubts about U.S. assets once deemed reliable safe havens. In fact, the dollar's year-to-date plunge is the worst since the U.S. transitioned to a free-floating exchange rate in 1973, effectively ending the post-World War II system of fixed rates under the Bretton Woods agreement. Meanwhile, legislation that would add trillions of dollars to fiscal deficits is advancing in Congress, stirring more anxiety among foreign investors, especially those who hold U.S. debt. Put it all together, and this year has been a textbook example of how a negative NIIP profile can magnify currency turmoil, Ford warned. 'And because so much of the capital propping up the U.S. financial system comes from abroad, even small shifts in sentiment can lead to big outflows,' he added. 'That's a lot of dollars being sold, and fewer being bought, and voilà, the greenback stumbles.' Circling back to the financial scorecard analogy, Ford explained that the problem with focusing on the current account deficit is that it only shows the flow of transactions, i.e. imports versus exports. By contrast, the NIIP shows the overall pile of debts—and ignoring that would be like judging a person's spending habits without checking their credit card balance, he said, making trust 'your most important asset.' 'Yes, trade deficits, interest rates, and Fed signals all play a role, but the NIIP tells you just how exposed the U.S. is when things go sideways,' Ford concluded. 'It's the quiet structural risk lurking under the surface, ready to amplify shocks. And in a year like this, it's been shouting, not whispering.' Waning confidence in the dollar has spurred investors and central banks around the world to load up on gold, which has soared in price in recent years and particularly this year, surging 21% in 2025. Trump's unrelenting pressure on Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell to cut interest rates has also weakened the dollar lately. While many on Wall Street see even more downside potential ahead for the dollar, the AI boom that's still drawing billions in global investment flows to the U.S. offers some hope for relief.

When to Hire and When to Wait in Your Trucking Business
Let's get this straight—adding a driver isn't just about filling a seat. It's about knowing exactly when your business can sustain it, when it needs it, and when waiting is the smarter move. Too many small carriers hire too early, chasing growth without the freight to back it up or the systems to support it. And what happens? Payroll gets tight. Equipment sits. Operations spiral. You're not growing—you're bleeding. Hiring has to be a strategic decision, not a hopeful one. If you're running a small operation and thinking about bringing someone on—whether it's your first driver or your fifth—this article is your gut check. Because timing matters just as much as execution. We're going to walk through the signs that it's time to expand, the indicators that you're not ready yet, and the foundational work you need in place before that hire ever sees the inside of your truck. This is where most small carriers fall short. They land one good contract or start seeing some consistent freight on the board, and they think, 'It's time to scale.' But steady isn't the same as sustainable. One broker with consistent loads is not a business model—it's a dependency. And if that freight disappears, now you've got payroll due on a driver you can't keep rolling. Before you hire, ask yourself: Can I consistently cover an additional truck with profitable freight, not just movement? Do I have a backup plan if my primary source of loads dries up? Have I run the numbers beyond just the gross—factoring in fuel, payroll, insurance, and downtime? If you can't say yes to all three, you're not ready. Waiting is smarter than hiring someone you can't afford to pay three months from now. Hiring a driver without knowing your cost per mile is like trying to win a race without knowing where the finish line is. You've got to know your breakeven down to the cent—per mile, per week, per truck. If you don't know: How many loaded miles you need to run weekly to stay profitable How much cash flow your business requires to cover payroll every two weeks How long you can float expenses if a shipper pays late or a load cancels …then hiring isn't a business decision—it's a guess. And in this market, guesses get expensive real fast. Here's a better question than 'Should I hire?' Ask: 'Am I already maximizing the truck I have?' Too many owners jump to hiring because they're tired. They want help. But the truth is, a second driver won't solve a business that isn't optimized. If your current truck isn't running 5+ days a week, or if you're turning down freight you could cover yourself, you're not ready to hire—you're ready to tighten up. That said, if you're booked out days in advance, running profitable lanes, and consistently turning down loads because you can't cover them—that's your signal. Demand is pulling ahead of supply. That's when a second truck makes sense. Let's talk about money. Hiring a driver means you're committing to paying someone every week—even if your customers don't pay for 30 days. You need at least 45–60 days of payroll set aside before that hire ever steps into your operation. If that sounds like a stretch, you're not alone. But it's also your red flag. Do the math: What's your average driver payroll cost per week, including taxes and worker's comp? Multiply that by 6–8 weeks. That number is your safety net. If you don't have it, wait. Because once the driver's in, there's no pause button. Running tight and hoping your next invoice pays in time is not a business strategy. Adding a driver doesn't just mean adding miles—it means adding complexity. Dispatch, safety, maintenance tracking, driver communication, onboarding, load paperwork—it all scales with every truck. If you're running everything manually or off your phone, you're going to burn out or drop the ball. Or both. Before hiring, ask: Do I have a standard process for dispatching loads, collecting BOLs, and tracking hours? Is my ELD ready to manage a second driver? Do I have a way to monitor safety and compliance in real time? Do I have someone (or a system) that can help manage the back-office work that comes with another truck? If your answer is 'I'll figure it out when they start,' you're already behind. Build the system first. Then staff it. Let's talk about what right looks like. Here's when hiring is the right call: You've got a contract or direct shipper volume that your current truck can't fully handle You're operating profitably, consistently, with cash flow that supports 60 days of payroll You have systems in place to dispatch, track, and support another truck You're turning down freight that aligns with your lanes, not just taking anything that moves You've tested your numbers and hiring doesn't just add revenue—it adds margin In that situation, adding a driver is a force multiplier. You're not just growing—you're growing right. If you're still heavily dependent on load boards, still running inconsistent freight, or still managing everything out of a single spreadsheet, hiring isn't going to fix it. It's going to break it faster. Wait if: You're still guessing at your weekly numbers You've got unpaid invoices that are 30+ days old You're running negative weeks more often than not You're hoping another truck will create cash flow instead of sustain it There's no shame in waiting. There's only risk in rushing. Adding a driver isn't a milestone—it's a responsibility. And in this industry, hiring too early will cost you more than waiting too long ever will. The numbers don't lie. If you're not running lean, consistent, and cash-positive, more trucks won't fix the problem—they'll multiply it. But when you've got the freight, the systems, and the financial foundation in place, that hire can be a game-changer. Just make sure it's a business move, not a bailout.
