Prime Day may be over, but Amazon’s holiday deals have only just begun

Prime Day was a 48-hour event chock-full of sales. But, just because Prime Day is over it doesn’t mean all the best sales are gone. Holiday sales have just begun and the rest of the year is going to be jam-packed with Back Friday, Cyber Monday, and Christmas sales. Amazon has already started listing tons of great holiday deals on tech, home goods, and more. We’ll be rounding up the best offers you should know about below, so keep reading!

There are going to be a lot of new offers daily, the closer we get to Black Friday. Keep your eyes peeled for any must-have offers that go live in the run-up to the event. If you see a gadget you really want at a really low price, buy it. You can always return it later if you see a better deal pop up during Black Friday or even Cyber Monday. Amazon also extended its return policy this year to 2021, so anything you shop now can be returned by the end of January. This is particularly great if you’re in charge of buying all the gifts. If your loved one doesn’t like what you bought them, you have extended time to return those goods and buy them something new.

There are also going to be tons of holiday lightning deals, so make sure to watch out for those. Lightning deals are usually daily deals that have a limited amount of stock assigned to them. If you see something you like don’t hesitate to click “buy.” Chances are, that product won’t see another discount anytime soon. One important buying tip to keep in mind: Always check reviews and do a little bit of research before you purchase any product. Though Amazon is a pretty trustworthy site, there are always a few rotten deals floating around. A simple check of the ratings and reviews on the product’s page should usually do the trick. If you’re looking to buy a bigger tech gadget, check out our product reviews before so you know what you’re getting yourself into. Finally, make sure to get most of your holiday shopping done in advance. Amazon might see extended shipping delays the closer we get to Christmas.

Amazon saw 15.3 million watch Thursday Night Football on Prime Video
Thursday Night Football on Amazon Prime Video.

We knew Thursday Night Football on Amazon Prime Video was good. Better than good, really, given that Amazon is producing and streaming the show on its own. But this good? An average of some 15.3 million viewers across all platforms watched the Week 2 game (Amazon's first; the Week 1 game was on NBC), and Nielsen alone noted 13 million viewers.

That Nielsen number was up 47% from the 2021 Week 2 Thursday night game, Amazon said. That game was only on the NFL Network.

The best OnePlus phone deal on Prime Day isn’t the 10 Pro
The OnePlus 10 Pro and OnePlus 9 Pro's camera modules.

The OnePlus 10 Pro is on offer as part of Amazon’s Prime Day 2022, but we’re not going to suggest you buy it, because if you dig around a little more, there’s a better offer on a different OnePlus phone. The OnePlus 9 Pro may be a phone from 2021, but at $699, it’s yours for a very good price, and you get the top version the company made.

OnePlus has reduced the OnePlus 10 Pro to $799 for Prime Day, but for this you get the 8GB/128GB model and not the top -- and recently released -- 12GB/256GB version. For that, you’ll have to pay $969. The $699 OnePlus 9 Pro has 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage space, but we're not recommending it because of the RAM. It’s the additional storage that’s important here. Neither OnePlus phone has a MicroSD card slot, so you’ve only got the internal storage to rely on. It's a good plan to get as much as possible.

Which TV should you buy on Prime Day today?
The Amazon Fire TV Omni Series with the Fire TV platform on the screen.

One of the more sought-after Prime Day deals has got to be on televisions. They're big. They're bulky. And while they're not necessarily the most expensive electronics purchase you'll have in the near term, they're definitely right up there.

And the cool thing is that we absolutely know that there are going to be some sweet deals on TVs on Prime Day -- because Amazon has already told us. And that's before you get into the other companies that are looking to move some merch on one of the bigger online shopping days of the year.
