FAQs
When is Amazon Prime Day 2024?
Amazon’s biggest sales event of the year, Prime Day 2024, took place on July 16 and July 17, with major discounts across various product categories, including phones, laptops, TVs, audio, and more. While the best deals are available for Prime members only, sellers often mark down products for non-Prime members to take advantage of.
Are phones really cheaper on Prime Day?
Yes, phones are often cheaper on Prime Day, matching the level of discount you’d find in a Black Friday or Cyber Monday deal. This is partly because Prime Day typically happens in July, months after most manufacturers like Samsung, OnePlus, Google, and Motorola have launched new devices in the first half of the year. With the amount of time that has passed, you’ll often see the more recent phones discounted by a good amount at this time.
Which smartphone brand tends to have the best Prime Day deals?
Based on past trends, Samsung tends to have the best Prime Day deals for two reasons: the number of models offered and the time since launch. Samsung typically launches its newest flagship phones (and mid-range devices) in the winter and spring, meaning when Prime Day comes along (mid-July), those handsets are ripe for competitive discounts.
Lately, Samsung has also been launching its Z-series of foldable phones in July, which made this Prime Day a great opportunity for the company to pitch pre-order deals to customers.
Do Prime Day phone deals sell out quickly?
Manufacturers tend to stock up on phones in preparation for higher demand during Prime Day, so they don’t often sell out quickly. However, there are moments when a flagship phone from Samsung, OnePlus, or Google will due to the device being highly recommended and heavily discounted. Case in point, the latest Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, which was previously discounted by roughly $250, is already on backorder status.
How did we choose these Prime Day deals?
ZDNET chooses Prime Day deals based on the percentage of discount compared to the original price ($5 off a $20 item is just as good as $250 off a $1,000 item), how significant the discount is compared to pricing history, and whether our experts have tested and recommended the product.
We also look at deals from a wider scope, considering better alternatives, unique use cases, stock, and existing customer reviews on websites like Amazon, Best Buy, and Reddit. The best deals will save you a decent amount of money while giving you a truly worthwhile product.
