Okay, so Black Friday isn’t technically for another few weeks, but these Amazon deals are already absolutely unhinged. And I’m not talking about those fake “savings” where they mark up the price first and then discount it back to normal. These are the real ones that make you do a double-take and really go for it.
Some of these early deals are better than what we’ll probably see on actual Black Friday. The good stuff sells out fast.

The Little Stuff That Makes Life Less Annoying
The Smart Home Stuff That’ll Make Your Place Feel Expensive
Echo Show 8 for $100 (normally $150)
This is the one with the screen that’s actually big enough to be useful. You can video call your mom, watch recipe videos while your hands are covered in raw chicken, or just yell at it to show you the weather. It’s basically a tablet that lives on your counter and doesn’t judge you for asking it the same question three times because you weren’t listening.
Fire TV Stick 4K for $30 newest model (down from $50)
If you’re still using your TV’s built-in smart features, I’m sorry but those are terrible and everyone knows it. This thing makes any TV smart, streams in actual 4K, and costs less than a mediocre brunch. The remote has that button that finds itself when you lose it in the couch, which alone is worth the price.
Ring Battery Doorbell Plus for $80 (was $150)
For when you want to see who’s at your door without actually getting up, or pretend you’re not home when you definitely are. Works on battery so you don’t need to rewire anything. Your delivery drivers will also appreciate that you can actually see them instead of just yelling “LEAVE IT” through the door like a feral goblin.
Blink Mini 2 Indoor Cam 2-Pack for $28 (normally $70)
Two security cameras for less than thirty bucks is kind of ridiculous. People are using these to watch their pets destroy things in real-time, make sure their packages don’t grow legs and walk away, or just have proof that yes, they DID tell their roommate not to touch their leftovers.
The Audio Gear For People Who Actually Care About Sound
JBL Charge 6 for $170 (save $30), built in powerbank
This is the portable speaker that sounds way better than it has any right to for the price. Waterproof, battery lasts forever, and it gets LOUD without sounding like a distorted mess. Beach trips, backyard hangs, shower concerts where you pretend you’re Beyoncé — it handles all of it.
Beats Solo 4 for $130 (down from $200)
These are the on-ear headphones that don’t make you look like you’re about to DJ a rave. Solid noise cancellation, battery life that lasts through multiple cross-country flights, and they fold up small enough to shove in a bag. Apple/Android compatible, which is weirdly still something we have to specify in 2025.
The Weird Tech That Sounds Made Up But Actually Rules
Nebula Capsule 3 Projector for $340 (was $530)
A portable projector that’s roughly the size of a soda can and turns any wall into a movie screen. It runs Android TV, so you can stream Netflix directly without connecting anything. People take these camping, use them for backyard movie nights, or just project onto their ceiling like they’re living in a sci-fi film. The future is weird and I’m here for it.
Apple Pencil Pro for $99, latest model (save $30)
If you have an iPad and you’re still using your finger like some kind of caveman, this is your intervention. The squeeze gesture thing is actually useful, the haptic feedback makes it feel more like real drawing, and it’s genuinely wild how much better it is than those $20 knockoffs on Amazon.
TP-Link Wi-Fi Extender for $13 (down from $15)
Okay the savings here are laughable, but it’s THIRTEEN DOLLARS for something that fixes your dead zones. Your bedroom where Wi-Fi goes to die? Fixed. That weird corner of your apartment where your phone insists you’re offline? Fixed. It’s cheaper than a fancy coffee and way more useful.
The Stuff That Does Your Chores
Dyson Airwrap Origin for $400 (normally $550)
This is the hair tool that broke the internet and your friends won’t shut up about. Curls, straightens, volumizes, all without the heat damage that regular tools cause. Yeah it’s still expensive even on sale, but people who have it genuinely use it every day and claim it’s worth every penny. The cult following is real.
Dreame X40 Ultra for $665 (was $1,200)
A robot vacuum that also mops, empties itself, washes its own mop pads, and basically does everything except pay rent. The $535 discount is genuinely insane. This is the level of robot vacuum you get when you’re fully committed to never manually cleaning your floors again.
Eufy Omni S1 Pro for $1,000 (down from $1,500)
This one is for people who looked at the Dreame and thought “but does it have a robotic arm?” Because yes, it actually does. It can pick up small objects, extend to clean baseboards, and it’s giving very much “I live in the future and my robot does everything.” A thousand dollars is still a lot, but $500 off means you’re basically obligated to at least consider it.
Ecovacs Winbot W2 Pro Omni for $420 (save $280)
A robot that cleans your windows. Just sticks to the glass and goes to town while you watch in confused amazement. Works on mirrors too. If you have floor-to-ceiling windows or just really hate cleaning glass, this thing is borderline life-changing. Also fun to freak out your neighbors when they see it crawling around outside your window.
The Little Stuff That Makes Life Less Annoying
Apple Watch SE 2nd Gen for $189 (normally $249)
All the important Apple Watch features without the $400+ price tag. Tracks your workouts, yells at you for sitting too long, lets you leave your phone in another room without panicking. It’s the “I want to try a smartwatch without committing to a car payment” option.
Pure Enrichment XL Heating Pad for $38 (down from $40)
It’s huge, it gets actually hot (not that weak warmth some heating pads do), and it has an auto-shutoff so you won’t burn your house down when you inevitably fall asleep with it on. Sore muscles, period cramps, or just because you’re cold and touch-starved — it’s multipurpose.
