This article will be updated regularly as new Prime Day 2020 deals become available
Regardless of how you look at it, 2020 has been an unusual year. The COVID-19 pandemic has touched every single aspect of our lives and continues to do so. That’s why we didn’t have Mobile World Congress or IFA, nor E3 or Gamescom as we did in the previous year. All events moved to the virtual space, and we’re not going to talk about how companies had to switch to long-term remote work.
Events like Amazon Prime Day didn’t remain unscathed, as the US retailer has been forced to move one of the biggest sales of the year to a different timeframe. If you’re reading this, you probably know that Amazon Prime Day takes place between October 13-14. What you don’t know is that we plan to cover a lot more products this year, not just phones, tablets, smartwatches, smartwatches, and headphones.
Without further ado, we’re happy to bring you some of the best laptop, Chromebooks and MacBook deals on Prime Day. But before that, you should know that in order to take advantage of these deals, you must be an Amazon Prime member.
