If you’re planning to put in an investment on an action camera, you should be preparing yourself and your wallet for next week’s Prime Day deals for GoPro cameras, with Amazon’s Prime Day 2021 date set on June 21 and June 22. They don’t come cheap, so you should take advantage of the upcoming Prime Day GoPro deals to enjoy significant savings. GoPro isn’t the only name in the action camera industry, but it’s by far the most popular, as it keeps pushing the limits with new features in its latest models. This is why Prime Day GoPro sales are always popular among shoppers, ranging from novice videographers to professional adrenaline junkies.

What Prime Day GoPro deals to expect

The GoPro Hero9 Black was newly released when Amazon held Prime Day 2020, so discounts for the latest GoPro camera weren’t overwhelming. With the expected release of the next GoPro camera later this year, we might see lower prices for the GoPro Hero9 Black. There may be even bigger discounts for previous models, including the GoPro Hero8 Black, which is the top choice in Digital Trends’ best action cameras.

What Prime Day GoPro deals we saw last year

Last year’s Prime Day GoPro deals focused on the GoPro Hero8 Black, including bundles that sold the device with accessories such as extra batteries, additional grips, and protective cases. These bundles are great for GoPro newcomers and veterans alike — in addition to the savings, they provide different options for the action camera experience.

Should you buy a new GoPro on Prime Day?

Whether you’re going for the GoPro Hero9 Black, the GoPro Hero8 Black, or another model, Prime Day GoPro sales will shave some dollars off their prices. GoPro action cameras are always worth it though, so whichever version fits your needs and budget, you’ll surely end up with a device that won’t fail your expectations.

The best GoPro deals happening now

If you can no longer wait for the discounts that Prime Day will offer for action cameras, here are the best GoPro deals that are available right now so you that you can make your purchase right away.

Prime Day deals provide the perfect opportunity to buy those pesky household items that you never want to spend money on. We are so close to a AA-battery-free world, but it just hasn't happened yet. Fortunately we have a rechargeable option, so we can spend less money and throw fewer batteries into landfills. Right now you can get a 12-pack of Amazon Basic rechargeable batteries for just $13 thanks to a 46% discount on Prime Day. This deal will likely only stick around for the two official days of the sale, so if your battery drawer is running low, grab these today.

Of course, there's not much I can tell you about batteries that you don't already know. These Amazon Basics brand AAs have 2,000 mAh storage capacity. That's lower than a traditional alkaline battery, but it's enough power to last for a good three to four hours of continuous use. Then the rechargeable factor comes in. You can recharge these batteries about 1,000 times before they die out. Think about how many batteries that will save you -- and how much money. Let's do some quick napkin math. 1,000 recharges... alkaline batteries cost around one third the price of a rechargeable... factor in the difference in storage capacity... It could be as much as $300 in savings over a single battery's lifetime. A lot less waste too.
