While Prime Day isn’t technically until July 16, some companies are already starting to offer their deals. I’ve sifted through these current deals and separated the really great ones from the ones you might want to skip. For now, this is a pretty short list, since most big-name tech brands tend to keep their valuable discounts for the actual Prime Day, and reliability is super important when you’re buying a gadget you plan on using regularly. Below, I’ve only included deals with 20 percent off or more. I’ve seen some good deals on home entertainment devices like Rokus and Fire TVs, as well as some great audio devices. Amazon is also slashing prices on a lot of its products, but flagship models like most Kindles and Echo devices aren’t on sale yet.

Quick note: You’ll need a Prime membership to access these sales, and there will be a lot of deals, so be sure to sign up for our newsletter to make sure you don’t miss out on the best deals. (And if you’re looking for great deals on other product categories, check out our roundup of the best early Prime Day deals .)

Apple Watch Series 9 GPS

Samsung Galaxy Watch 6

Even though Samsung only just announced the Watch 7, last year’s model is still a great smartwatch, especially with a 30 percent discount.

Anker PowerWave 7.5 Stand Qi-certified Wireless Charger

I’ve been using this wireless charging stand at my desk for almost three years now, and I still think it’s one of the best deals in this category, especially with a 20% discount.

Logitech G502 Lightspeed Wireless Gaming Mouse

Logitech has a bunch of early bird deals, especially on gaming gear. This wireless gaming mouse comes with RGB lights and 11 customizable buttons, and it’s now 43 percent off.

Logitech G715 Wireless Gaming Keyboard

Mechanical keyboards have a clicky feel that standard keyboards simply can’t match. This one from Logitech has customizable RGB lights and swappable keycaps so you can make your keyboard look even better. It’s now 25 percent off.

Roku Express 4K+

Roku has long been known for its affordable streaming devices, and the Express 4K+ is no exception. It’s small, has 4K playback, and a voice remote. Right now, it’s 25 percent off and is about as affordable as you can get.

Amazon Fire TV Cube

Amazon’s cube streaming player, which has seen its price cut by almost a third, can play 4K content and also offers all the features of a smart speaker.

Amazon Prime Music Unlimited

If you’ve never tried Amazon’s music streaming service and are a Prime member, you can get five months of free access to the unlimited Prime Music tier.

Amazon Kindle Scribe

If you’re looking for an e-reader you can use, this is the lowest price I’ve seen for Amazon’s largest stylus-powered Kindle e-reader.

Apple AirPods (2nd generation)

AirPods are some of the best wireless earbuds you can buy if you’re an Apple user, especially with a 31% discount.

JBL Pulse 5 Speaker

My favorite Bluetooth speaker that basically doubles as a lava lamp is now 20 percent off. Fun fact: It’s also great for kids. My 2-year-old niece loves playing with it.

JBL 1000 strip

I’ve been using this soundbar to watch movies and listen to music in my living room for about eight months now, and I love its excellent sound and the ability to detach the left and right speakers and place them anywhere in the room.

Eero Home Wi-Fi System (1 Pro + 1 Beacon)

Mesh networks can help you spread your Wi-Fi signal more effectively throughout your home. They tend to be expensive, but this Eero bundle, which includes one router and one beacon for an expanded signal, is a great starter kit.

TP-Link AC1200 Wi-Fi Extender

If you want to save some money, you can also just buy a Wi-Fi extender and build your own mesh network. TP-Link is well-known for its routers, and this extender is quite affordable, especially with a 54% discount.

Echo Dot (5th generation) with Sengled Smart Color Smart Bulb

In this bundle, you will receive a smart speaker and a multi-colored smart bulb that you can control with Alexa.

Blink Outdoor 4 (4th generation) 3 pieces

Home security gear doesn’t come cheap, but kits help. Right now, you can get a whopping 62 percent off three Blink outdoor camera kits that feature motion detection, two-way audio, and up to two years of battery life.

Blink Mini 2

Indoor cameras are also handy if you want to keep an eye on your pets when you’re out and about, or just want some peace and quiet. Blink’s latest compact indoor camera is now half off, so you can buy a few if you need to.

While I’ve rounded up some good early Prime Day deals here , most major tech brands save their best deals for the actual Prime Day. Amazon Kindles always have a significant discount, companies like Bose usually drop the prices on some headphones and earbuds, and there are usually good PlayStation and Xbox deals. Here are a few things I expect to get at a significant discount on Prime Day.
