FAQs

When is Amazon Prime Day 2024?

Amazon's biggest sales event of the year, Prime Day 2024 runs through the end of today, with major discounts across various product categories, including phones, laptops, TVs, audio, and more. While the best deals are available for Prime members only, sellers often mark down products for non-Prime members to take advantage of. The event officially takes place on July 16 and July 17. 

Are smart cameras really cheaper on Prime Day? 

It is true that prices on most Amazon items fluctuate throughout the year, but thanks to price tracking tools, we're able to see exactly how much. Our research shows that for most of the smart cameras on this list, prices are at their lowest point of the year. So yes, you can really save money on Prime Day.

How did we choose these Prime Day deals?

ZDNET only writes about deals that we would buy for ourselves. We start by choosing reliable, recognized brands with a history of satisfied customers. Brands that don't have a good reputation or ones that inflate prices to create artificial sales won't make our list. Using established price comparison tools and trackers, we try to find deals that are at least 20% off. In many cases, our recommendations come from products that we've tested.

Are there different security camera deals on Prime Day 2?

The answer is yes and no. Deals come and go throughout the two days of Prime Day -- even after the event, you will still see some deals lingering, albeit not as high of a dollar amount in savings. However, we recommend that if you see something on sale during Prime Day you are eyeing, buy it now because you never know when the deal will expire (especially if it's a lightning deal or a deal on a popular brand).
