Now that Amazon has announced that its second big Prime Day shopping event of the year, called Prime Big Day, will take place next month on October 10 and 11, we’re seeing deals start to trickle out.

Amazon has some early Prime Big Day deals listed for the event, and to take advantage of these savings and more during the main days, you’ll need a Prime membership. In addition to Amazon, we also found some great savings at competing retailers. So whether you need a new laptop or a new fitness tracker, or you’re getting ready for the iPhone 15 to be delivered with a case or screen protector, there are plenty of discounts on tech gear in this early Prime Big Day edition of Dealmaster.
