This is coming your way on Amazon Prime Day
Gaming laptops with RTX graphics cards will be reduced. That was the case for the first Prime Day in July and it will be the same again this time. Here are our tips and recommendations for notebook gamers. As far as graphics cards for PC builders are concerned, the forecast looks a bit bleaker. The odds of getting an RTX 3090 Ti at half price are slim, although we don’t want to rule it out entirely.
Things look better for processors, RAM, SSDs and peripherals such as mice, keyboards and headsets. Gamers should find enough offers that are worthwhile and if you are interested, we will accompany you on your search.
Hopefully the new Apple phones will ensure lower prices for older models. That’s why we expect good prices for older iPhones, the Samsung Galaxy and hopefully also really good offers for OnePlus Nord and Xiaomi.

7:55 p.m – There will be numerous components for PC builders on sale on Prime Day. If you are looking for inspiration or need a tip or two, I recommend the purchase advice from colleagues:
7:47 p.m – If you are looking for a security camera, Amazon has the Blink Outdoor range. The variant with 2 cameras and doorbell only costs 99 dollars. The system features a motion detector, a weatherproof outdoor camera, 2-way audio and HD video. You can find more about the topic here:

7:32 p.m – Has nothing to do with gaming, but is simply beautiful: When the animals left the forest in the complete remastered edition. Instead of 44.97 dollars, the three seasons for the next 2 hours and 37 minutes only cost 38 dollars. After that, the lightning offer ends.
7:22 p.m.: Too good to be true? At this point it should be remembered that some prices simply cannot be right. If you buy a PS5 for 300 dollars or an RTX 3090 Ti on Prime Day for 312.65 dollars, you should look twice. It could be a fake shop. More on this in this guide:

7:14 p.m – You can get the Fire TV Stick 4K Max for 33.99 dollars. The price is almost two dollars above the best price from the summer, but it’s still good. The two dollars are probably running under inflation. The Fire TV Stick 4K Max is Amazon’s most powerful streaming stick. It is around 40 percent more powerful than the Fire TV Stick 4K. Accordingly, apps start much faster and the entire navigation works even more smoothly. The display of 4K content is also no problem for the stick.
6:58 p.m – If you want to while the time until midnight with a movie: Amazon offers some movies for half price. If you want to buy movies, that’s a good deal. If you prefer to borrow, you should wait for the next 99 cent promotion. Here is a small selection of the films on offer:
- Free Guy for $5.98 (2021 fantasy comedy starring Ryan Reynolds)
- Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw for $4.99 (Action Movie 2019 with Dwayne Johnson)
- Mission: Impossible – Fallout for $5.98 (Action Thriller 2018 with Tom Cruise)
- Jackass Forever for $5.98 (Stunt Show 2022 with Johnny Knoxville)
- Sonic the Hedgehog 2 for $7.98 (2022 fantasy comedy starring James Marsden)
- Jurassic World for $6.98 (2015 adventure film starring Chris Pratt)
6:49 p.m – In fact, Amazon’s own brands are particularly worthwhile on Prime Day. Other products can always be offered at other shops just as cheaply or even cheaper. But since Amazon pulls all the strings when it comes to its own brands, you are definitely on the safe side on Prime Day.
6:42 p.m – You can only play Amazon Unlimited Music on an Amazon device. So buy one! Then you get the music subscription for three or four months free of charge. Prime members get 4 months free.
6:30 p.m – An early offer that’s really worth it is the Amazon Echo Show 5 (2nd generation) for 34.99 dollars. With the Show 5 you have the cheapest entry into the Show series and still have everything under control. Alexa is always available for voice commands, you can easily set alarm clocks and timers and also accept video calls with the 2 MP camera. If you are looking for tips on how to set up your smart home: This is how a smart home works.
6:23 p.m – Balcony power plants are extremely popular at the moment. Not surprising given the rising energy prices. They won’t be 50 percent cheaper on Prime Day, but it looks like at least some complete sets and individual modules are currently available.

6:17 p.m – Of course we have a whole heap of useful information for you. On the one hand the overview page for Prime Day, on the other hand our guide for bargain hunters. And then there’s the guide to warranty, returns and other Prime Day pitfalls. We should have updated it, I just noticed… But also with the date of 11.07. Everything in there is up to date.
6:10 p.m – Hi everyone. Just under six hours until it officially starts! And just under five hours until G2 plays at the League of Legends Worlds, one highlight follows the other!
