Summary

  • Discounts of up to 68% are already live on Amazon devices ahead of Prime Day 2026, with the steepest cut dropping a Blink security bundle to $115 from $360.
  • Amazon is also discounting core hardware across its ecosystem, including the Fire TV Stick 4K at $18, the Amazon Smart Plug at $13 and the latest Ring Outdoor Cam at $40.
  • The early sale extends beyond speakers to Amazon-owned smart-home brands such as Ring, Blink and Eero, plus products like tablets, TVs, thermostats and smart plugs.
  • Prime Day runs June 23-26, and the report says these device prices are among the best seen this year and are unlikely to fall much further during the event.
