Only a few days to go until Prime Day arrives, but if you're itching to start getting in on the savings, we've got some good news for you. Amazon just rolled out some early deals on headphones, TV, Amazon devices, tablets, and more. It's a great opportunity to snag anything that's been on your wishlist.

Right now the Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite is $249 at Amazon. That's nearly $100 off and the lowest price we've seen for one of the best Android tablets on the market, which we consider a true iPad competitor. If you've already tapped into the Amazon ecosystem or want to transform your space into a smart home, Amazon smart devices are on sale from $22. You can snag a bundle that includes the Blink Video Doorbell System and an Echo Pop bundle for $34 at Amazon — a savings of $75. 

Granted, better deals could pop up the closer we get to Prime Day. But that's also when everyone else will be scooping them up, so you run the risk of Amazon running out of stock for your particular must-haves. Shopping early is a safer bet, and Amazon's upping the ante with huge markdowns ahead of Prime Day.
