FAQs
When is Amazon Prime Day 2024?
Amazon Prime Day 2024 will officially run from July 16 at 12:01 a.m. PDT through July 17. However, you can expect deals to appear before the event, and competitors – such as Walmart–> and Best Buy<!–> – will also run their own version of a summer sale.
When does Prime Day begin?
Prime Day 2024 will begin on Tuesday, July 16, at 12:01 a.m. PT and run through Wednesday, July 17. The annual two-day sale will last 48 hours, although deals will start appearing ahead of time, and some discounts may also hang around for a few days afterward. Keep in mind that the products with the best deals will likely sell out quickly.
Are Apple products really cheaper on Prime Day?
Apple rarely offers sales and discounts on its products, and considering the generally high price point, you might wait a while before upgrading your gear. So events such as Prime Day and Black Friday are great opportunities to save – but discounts are often still low, with many deals we’ve observed offering roughly five to 20 percent off, at most.
Will iPads be on sale on Prime Day?
Yes. It would be extremely unusual for there to be no deals available on the Apple iPad range. These tablets are very popular and considering how many options are now on the market – including iPad minis, the standard iPad, and iPad Pro models – we can reliably expect discounts to appear.
How did we choose these Prime Day deals?
ZDNET authors and reviewers will only include deals that catch our eye: products we have hands-on experience with, want, or would recommend to our readers.
We use our own experience, knowledge, and research to judge the worthiness of a deal that appears during Prime Day, alongside price tracker tools and services, to compare historical pricing data and determine whether or not we consider a deal to be of real value. Furthermore, we consider the price point itself: even if we’ve seen a product with a lower price point in the past if the new price is still valuable, we will consider the product’s inclusion.
We like to see discounts of at least 20%, but in some cases – such as Apple deals, which often have less of a discount available – we may still include a deal if it demonstrates value for money.
