Amazon Prime Day 2025 dates are here for the 4-day July event, plus early deals to shop

June 17, 2025

You know that feeling you get when you’re reading a book or watching a movie that’s so good, you don’t want it to end? Shopping editors can relate during a particularly bountiful sale event. Take Amazon Prime Day, for instance — it’s always been two days long, which, in my opinion, isn’t nearly enough time to bask in the super-savings glow that results from scoring a stellar deal. That’s why I was stunned/excited/insert-happy-adjective-of-choice-here when I heard that Amazon Prime Day 2025 will be a four-day affair. Yes, you read that correctly; everyone’s favorite annual sale will run twice as long as usual, so mark your calendar.

Oh, silly me — you can’t mark your calendar until you know the actual dates. Well, let me be the first to inform you that the online retailer just announced that Amazon Prime Day will be taking place (drum roll, please): Tuesday, July 8 through Friday, July 11. That’s in less than a month, and a bit earlier than in recent years. But I’m not complaining. I mean, when Amazon teases us with the promise of “deep discounts across more than 35 categories including electronics, kitchen, beauty and apparel,” who would want to wait?

Now, a bit of housekeeping: In case this will be your first Prime Day foray, you’ll want to keep some things in mind. For starters, as the name implies, the majority of the best are exclusively for Prime members. That means you’ll need an Amazon Prime membership to take advantage of the steepest markdowns. Signing up is easy, and you can even opt for a free 30-day trial before committing. After that, you’ll be charged $14.99 per month, which grants you access to dedicated deals, fast and free shipping, Prime streaming content and more.

Feeling a little impatient with all of this savings talk? I’ve got you. As Yahoo’s senior deals writer, I’m constantly on the lookout for the best markdowns on the web, and I’m happy to report that there are solid deals popping up at Amazon as we speak. I’m talking record-low prices and rare sales, so take a gander before Prime Day mania ensues. Happy shopping…

If you’ve been holding off on buying AirPods until there’s a sale, consider this the time to pounce. At just $99, this pair is down to the best price I’ve seen. Now, they don’t include active noise cancellation like these do, but if it’s a high-quality, comfortable listening experience you’re after, these earbuds more than deliver. With up to five hours of listening time per charge (and 30 hours of battery life via the charging case), you’ll be able to enjoy music, podcasts, audiobooks and more with limited interruption.

Ah, yes, the coveted Stanley cup. These bad boys rarely go on sale (they don’t really need to), but this sought-after sipper happens to be 40% off. It’s got a built-in straw and keeps cold drinks cold for up to nine hours (40 hours if they’re iced). No excuses for not staying hydrated this summer! Plus, its tapered bottom will fit right in your car’s cup holder.

Apple products are so sought after that they don’t really need to go on sale, and when they do, it’s often because they’re older models. This is the latest version of this iPad, which makes the markdown all the more impressive. According to Yahoo Senior Deals Writer Chris McGraw, who specializes in all things tech, “It’s an ultra-light, thin tablet that’s powerful enough to replace your laptop for most tasks but slips into your bag without a second thought. With a large 11-inch Liquid Retina display, you’re swiping and scrolling in vibrant color and sharpness that makes any screen that came before feel like an old tube TV.

“If you’ve got a habit of toggling between a dozen apps, streaming videos and replying to messages at once, you’re in for a treat. This iPad is ready to keep up with whatever you throw its way. And if you’re into gaming, the graphics capabilities mean you can play even demanding games without dropping a frame.”

It boasts strong suction for zapping up everything from dust to pet hair, and provides up to 40 minutes of run time per charge. Plus, its LED lights help you see those darker spaces, and its cyclonic filtration system traps airborne particles as well.

Ready to transform your blow-drying experience without shelling out for a pricey Dyson? Reviewers say this sleek styler is a comparable alternative for a fraction of the price.

This is the very hand vac I use at home, and let me tell you — it’s so much more powerful than its lightweight feel would imply. Is it bulkier than some of the other hand vacuums out there? Yes, but that’s to be expected, given its industrial-strength performance. That said, it’s portable enough to bring from room to room without it feeling like a workout, and that’s all I can ask for. Well, that and an incredible price — and this one is a record low. Bonus: You don’t have to purchase the battery and charger separately.

These days, many people are swapping their plastic cutting boards for ones that don’t pose the risk of exposing food to potentially harmful substances. If you’re looking to do the same, bamboo is an excellent alternative, and this set includes not one, not two, but three sturdy boards and a nifty holder. Because you’re getting a variety of sizes, you’ll be able to designate one board for meats, one for produce and another for smaller mincing tasks. Oh, and this trio rarely dips lower than its current price.
