Amazon is starting its biggest sale of the year today. I'm talking about none other than Prime Day. As deals editor-in-chief at Tom's Guide, I've covered every Prime Day sale since 2015. The one thing I've learned about Prime Day is that you shouldn't wait too long if you spot a good deal. After all, you never know how long it'll stay available.

For example, you can already get Amazon devices on sale from $12. I've always said that Prime Day is the best time to buy Amazon gear because that's when you'll find the lowest prices. In some instances, Prime Day prices even beat out Black Friday deals (although that's not always the case). 

Below I've rounded up all of the best deals you can get now on Amazon gear. I've also rounded up some other discounts that I recommend checking out now. If you're still thirsty for more deals, make sure to check out our official Prime Day deals guide and our roundup of this week's best Amazon promo codes.

Echo Pop: was $39 now $17 @ Amazon
This is the cheapest Alexa speaker offered by Amazon and it’s now been slashed to an even lower price. In our Echo Pop review, we said the speaker sounds great for its size. It lacks the temperature and motion sensors of the Echo Dot, but the Echo Pop still allows you to set timers, control your other smart home devices and more.

If you need to cover multiple rooms on a budget you can grab three Blink Minis for just $44. These affordable cameras still pack a crisp 1080p resolution which makes out people and objects in motion. Notifications hit your devices within seconds and the cameras' infrared night vision mode makes it easy to see what's happening even in pitch-black rooms like a basement. Keep in mind that if you're away often and want to save recordings, you'll need to pay a subscription fee. However, they make great monitors for motion notifications and dropping into live feeds to check up on kids, pets and even doorway activity.

Echo Show 5 (3rd Gen):was $89 now $49 @ Amazon

Amazon Fire TV Stick: was $39 now $17 @ Amazon

Amazon Fire TV Stick: was $39 now $17 @ Amazon
The standard Fire TV Stick has been surpassed by its 4K predecessors, but it is still a very capable streaming device for shoppers on a strict budget. If you don't have a 4K television, it offers instant access to all your favorite streaming services and a voice-controlled remote. In our Fire TV Stick review, we said it's good for anyone looking for a reliable, fast, easy-to-use streaming player that also doubles as an Alexa-enabled remote.

TV sale: deals from $64 @ Amazon

TV sale: deals from $64 @ Amazon
Need a new TV, but don't have a big budget? Amazon has TVs on sale for as low as $64. Keep in mind, the cheap TVs tend to be smaller, 1080p models (which are more suitable for a children's room or guest room). However, the sale also includes larger 4K sets. These are among the cheapest TVs we've seen from Amazon. 

Blink Floodlight Camera: was $129 now $64 @ Amazon

The Fire TV Soundbar is a great cheap option to boost your Fire TV's audio. It supports DTS Virtual:X and Dolby Audio, plus Bluetooth connectivity so it won't hog a valuable HDMI port. There's no Dolby Atmos, but for this price it's not too bad.

Ring Floodlight Cam Wired Plus: was $199 now $119 @ Amazon

Ring Floodlight Cam Wired Plus: was $199 now $119 @ Amazon
If you have floodlight wiring then Ring's floodlight camera is a no-brainer. Its two LED floodlights pack an impressive 2000 lumens that will light up your driveway or spotlight intruders in the dark. Its 1080p camera is plenty sharp to make out details like the text on a shirt. Plus it even has a built-in 105-dB siren. Unlike the pricier Ring Floodlight Cam Pro, it lacks 5GHz Wi-Fi and the Bird's Eye View feature which marks a subject's movement along your property atop an aerial map. Otherwise, this provides steady protection with a crisp image.

You can handwrite sticky notes on your Kindle books, edit documents, and create notebooks and journals. In our Kindle Scribe review we said its larger screen size, screen quality, and general design are great for reading, but make it a tough sell at its full price. Now on sale, it's a better bargain and easier to recommend.

Amazon 43" 4K Omni Fire TV: was $399 now $299 @ Amazon
The 43-inch Omni Fire TV is the latest TV in Amazon's TV lineup. This new smaller size brings HDR 10/HLG support to a smaller 4K screen for those who can't fit a 50-inch or larger TV into their living room. In our Amazon Fire TV Omni review, we said it's solid for gaming thanks to its low lag time, but you should only buy it when it's on sale as there are better/cheaper options for your money. Heads up, this TV sold for $99 last Prime Day, but it was a rare invite-only deal that few people got.
