Samsung’s 2024 edition of the Frame isn’t just a smart TV. It becomes a decorative accent whenever you’re not watching something. As a 4K resolution QLED TV, it also does an impressive job showcasing TV shows and movies, as well as high-action sports and games. And it displays famous works of art with extreme detail and color accuracy. Paintings from famous artists look real, while photographs look sharp and lifelike.
In addition to a matte finish which greatly reduces glare, for the first time, the Frame TVs are Pantone validated for color accuracy. This makes art look even more realistic. Even better: Samsung is offering a curated selection of 20 art pieces each month that Frame owners can display for free. But if you subscribe to Samsung’s Art Store ($5.99 per month), it now includes access to more than 2,500 artworks from world-renowned museums and galleries.
Thanks to the Frame’s broad viewing angle, wherever you’re sitting in the room, you’ll have a clear view. As always, you can buy an optional, magnetically attachable bezel to make the Frame TV look like it’s in a traditional picture frame. You can choose the bezel design (between $200 and $300 each) that matches the decor of any room.
Be sure to check out our full review of Samsung’s 2024 Frame TV, as well as our coverage of the seven things I love about the new 2024 Frame TV (and three things I hate). Head over to Amazon right now to get up to 20% off this popular TV. The 65-inch version is currently on sale for $1,698. Other popular screen sizes, including the 55-inch and 75-inch model are also now on sale.

The C4 Series TVs are LG’s current flagship OLED models, replacing the 2023 C3s. They feature more than eight million self-lit pixels that can display rich, bright and accurate colors — think 100% color volume with 100% color fidelity. These TVs are loaded with features, too, like Dolby Vision support. You also get special viewing modes, like filmmaker mode, which makes movies look as the director intended.
Since not everything you watch will be in native 4K resolution, you can take advantage of the TV’s enhanced AI upscaling. This boosts an image up to almost 4K quality in real-time. We also like that this TV offers multi-view, so you can split the screen and watch two things at once.
These TVs offer a resolution of 3,840 x 2,160 pixels and have a 120Hz refresh rate. They’re powered using LG’s a9 AI Processor 4K Gen 7 and the WebOS 24 operating system. To complement the amazing picture quality, the C4 TVs support Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. They have a built-in 2.2-channel speaker system that includes downward-firing speakers. You also get plenty of port options.
In conjunction with Prime Day, Amazon has cut the price of this TV rather dramatically. The 65-inch version is 24% off, which means you’ll pay just $2,049. The TV is also available in five other sizes including 42-inch ($1,147), 48-inch ($1,247), 55-inch ($1,547), 77-inch ($2,909) or 83-inch ($4,898), all of which are also on sale.

Ready to jump into the world of VR? This bundle is a great way to do it. It includes the Meta Quest 3 headset and ccessories as well as a durable hard shell carrying case and the game “Asgard’s Wrath 2” so you can start playing right out of the box.
The Meta Quest 3 is a powerhouse that doubles the performance of its predecessor, the Meta Quest 2. That means it offers a more immersive visual experience, due in part to the headset’s 4K resolution display. It boasts a nearly 30% increase in resolution compared to the Meta Quest 2.
The headset gives you an average of 2.2 hours of use on a single charge, with the option to extend battery life even further using its Battery Saver mode. The included 18W power adapter charges quickly as well, so you can right back into the game in a short amount of time.
You can get this bundle for just $430 during Prime Day, which will save you $70 off its normal price.

The Pixel 8 Pro smartphone offers some incredible new features and design elements, starting with a wonderfully bright, 6.7-inch Super Actua (OLED) display. You also get a fully upgraded camera system and a polished aluminum frame with a matte finish on the phone’s sides and back. The phone is powered using Google’s own Tensor G3 processor, which not only speeds up overall phone performance, but it also allows for AI functionality to be embedded into a wide range of phone features, from call screening and the capabilities of Google Assistant, to photo and video editing.
In conjunction with the sensors people are already familiar with from older Pixel smartphone models, the Pixel 8 Pro introduces a temperature sensor on the back of the phone. At the moment, this can be pointed at something, like a baby bottle, to make sure it’s not too hot. Google has applied for FDA approval that may allow this sensor to check human body temperature in the near future.

The new Echo Spot can be customized with your favorite clock face, colors, alarm sounds and more. It has a smart display that shows the time, weather, song titles and other information at a glance so you have everything you need right in front of you in the morning.

Control it with touch or via Alexa, which can also be set up to follow routines that wake you up with music and soft light in a more gentle way than traditional alarms.
You can use the Echo Spot as a smart home hub by way of Alexa as well, with voice controls that mean you don’t have to stumble out of bed in the morning to find a switch or touch a panel somewhere else to turn on the lights or get your day going.
Right now, you can save $35 on the Echo Spot, making it just $45 for Prime Day. Grab yours quickly before it goes up to $80 once more. You can also the Echo Spot with its charging stand bundled together for just $75, marked down from its normal price of $110.

The new 13-inch MacBook Air shares almost all the same specs and features as the larger 15-inch model, just in a more compact size. It’s powered by Apple’s latest M3 chip, which provides a performance boost for demanding tasks like video editing or gaming. It’s no slouch, even if it’s the lightest MacBook you can currently get.
The MacBook Air still weighs only 2.5 pounds for ultimate portability. Its 13-inch Liquid Retina display outputs a bright 500 nits and supports connecting two external monitors. It’ll last a long time per use, too. Apple estimates the battery can last up to 18 hours on a single charge.
Right now, you can get this MacBook model for $950, which is $149 off its usual price.

We love the Kindle Scribe because in addition to serving as a full-featured e-reader and audiobook player, it can also be used as a digital notepad. It comes with a stylus and the ability to create custom-named digital notebooks that can contain any number of individual pages. Onto those virtual pages, you can add handwritten notes and drawings. These can then be viewed, edited, printed or shared with others.
One great feature of the Scribe is its e-ink display that’s virtually glare-free and easy to read in any lighting situation. Plus, the e-reader’s battery lasts for weeks between charges.
Plus as you’re reading e-books, you can use the pen-shaped stylus to handwrite notes and highlight text.
Regularly $340, you can get the Kindle Scribe for just $235 with an Amazon Prime membership. It’s our favorite Prime Day Kindle deal.
Kitchen appliances, vacuums, luggage, outdoor furniture and more are also on sale during Prime Day and we’ve discovered some of the best deals you can snag right now.

The Keurig K-Elite coffee maker brews one cup of coffee at a time (using a K-Cup), but features a 75-ounce water reservoir so you can make cups of coffee for everyone in your family.

Each time you use it, you can easily select between five cup sizes, as well as your desired strength and temperature.

Featuring a three-stage cleaning system, the iRobot Roomba Vac Essential robot vacuum can handle carpets and hard surface floors like a pro. The robot vacuum also has three levels of suction power, so you can choose between a more thorough clean and quiet operation.
We like that the iRobot Roomba Vac Essential can be scheduled to clean automatically in neat rows, or can start cleaning via Alexa voice commands. There’s also a spot-cleaning setting where the robot will spin in place for up to two minutes.

Though not the newest model, the second-generation Apple AirPods are still a popular choice when it comes to earbuds. Keep in mind, these are not the Pro model, but they’re still worth grabbing – especially at what appears to be the lowest price we’ve seen on them to date.
For Apple users, these are the most seamless earbuds around. They connect effortlessly whenever you need them. While they work with any Bluetooth device that generates audio, they function at their best when they’re paired with an Apple device, such as an iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, iMac or MacBook.
With a wireless charging case providing more than 24 hours of battery life, one-tap setup for Apple devices, and a low-latency wireless connection for immersive entertainment, it’s easy to see why these earbuds are a hit and continue to sell out.
