Amazon Prime Day 2025 Will Be A 4-Day Sale—Here Are All The Details
This year's Amazon Prime Day details have finally been announced. Early this morning, the retail giant shared that Amazon Prime Day 2025 will run July 8 through July 11—making it a four-day-long event this year. That means you'll have two more days to shop than in years past. Other than that, the sale is expected to be largely the same, with millions of deals on everything from must-have tech and beauty staples to outdoor essentials and kitchen appliances. The press release mentions that you can expect discounts from top brands including Dyson, Away, Samsung and Tarte.
Something else that's new this year? Today's Big Deals, a themed daily deal drop. Every night of the sale at midnight PDT, Amazon will be releasing special one-day deals. 'Prime Day 2025 is looking promising. I anticipate that we'll see a lot of first-time deals and all-time lows from a lot of brands as they try to encourage shopping in the face of economic uncertainty,' says supervising deals and coupons editor Kara Cuzzone. Here, we've outlined everything you need to know about this year's sale and rounded up the best early deals you can shop right now.
Amazon Prime Day is a summer sale that was first introduced in 2015. At its start, Prime Day was a single-day event meant to celebrate the company's 20th anniversary. Over the years, it's expanded into a 48-hour event, but this year it's getting another extension: Amazon Prime Day 2025 will be four days long.
Amazon Prime Day 2025 will start at 12:01 p.m. PDT on July 8 and run through 11:59 p.m. PDT on July 11. That said, there are already some early deals worth browsing if you want to get a head start on shopping.
Technically, there's only one Prime Day each year. However, for the past three years, Amazon has run a similar savings event in October: Prime Big Deal Days. In recent years, it has also started running annual sales that are open to the general public (not just Prime members) including the Big Spring Sale, Amazon Pet Day and the Summer Beauty Event. Time will tell if Amazon will continue to add to its annual sale schedule.
No, Amazon Prime Day isn't a sitewide sale. That said, you can still find hundreds of thousands of discounts across nearly all product categories from brands like Sony, EltaMD and, of course, Amazon itself. Just keep in mind that you have to be a Prime member to take advantage of the deals.
The answer to this question largely depends on what you're shopping for. If you're in the market for Amazon devices, tech and small appliances, you'll likely find some great deals over Prime Day. The same goes for beauty and personal care essentials—Amazon has really stepped up its game in these categories over recent years.
That said, there will inevitably be plenty of lackluster offers as well. We always recommend checking the price history of an item by using tools like CamelCamelCamel or checking other sites for price comparison before adding it to your cart. Our editors research the price history of every item we feature in our content, so shopping a Forbes Vetted Prime Day deals lists is another way to ensure you're getting a good deal.
You can sign up for an Amazon Prime membership at any time. The annual membership costs $139 (after a 30-day free trial). A membership gets you access to the sale as well as a slew of Prime member perks, like access to special offers, free shipping (including same-, one- and two-day shipping options depending on the product and your zip code), Grubhub+, Prime Video services and more. Some users may also qualify for discounted memberships, including students and eligible government assistance recipients.

Trump's sons say his new phone will be built in the US. Experts say it looks a lot like a phone from China
When the Trump Organization unveiled its new Trump Mobile wireless service on Monday, it said its upcoming T1 smartphone will be 'proudly designed and built in the United States.' But experts told CNN they're skeptical that a smartphone can be built in the US based on the specifications, price and timeline laid out by Donald Trump, Jr., and Eric Trump, when they announced the phone. Experts pointed out striking similarities between the T1's specifications and an already available, Chinese-made phone. 'Unless the Trump family secretly built out a secure, onshore or nearshore (fabrication) operation over years of work without anyone noticing, it's simply not possible to deliver what they're promising,' said Todd Weaver, CEO of Purism, one of the only known companies to actually manufacture a cell phone in the United States. CNN has reached out to the Trump Organization for comment. President Donald Trump is not involved in the daily operations of the Trump Organization, which is run by the president's eldest sons, the company said in January. The announcement comes as the president has been pushing to bring manufacturing jobs back to the United States, particularly in the tech industry. He's pressured companies like Apple and Samsung to manufacture their phones in the US, saying companies who make their phones elsewhere will face a tariff of at least 25%. The Trump family say on Trump Mobile's website and in the formal announcement in Trump Tower on Monday that the phone will be 'Made in the USA.' But later, in a clip from an interview with conservative media personality Benny Johnson, Eric Trump said 'eventually all the phones can be built in the United States of America.' CNN has asked the Trump Organization whether the T1 phone will initially be built in the US. Both Weaver and a second expert, Max Weinbach, an analyst at market research firm Creative Strategies, independently told CNN they believe the T1 phone looks like a version of the already available Revvl 7 Pro 5G, made by China-based Wingtech, which provides manufacturing services for smartphones and other products. The phone retails for around $169 on Amazon. Weinbach and Weaver base this off the specifications listed by Trump Mobile, including the phone's body, battery and camera resolution. There's no direct evidence linking Trump's phone directly to the Revvl 7 Pro 5G or any specific phone made outside the US. CNN has reached out to Wingtech for comment. 'There (are) only realistically four or five smartphone ODM (original device manufacturers) that would actually be able to manufacture something like this,' Weinbach said. 'All of them are based out of China.' The Revvl device has the same screen size, battery capacity and storage as the T1 phone according to the information listed on the Trump Mobile website , and both phones have a headphone jack – a rare find on modern smartphones. However, the Revvl's camera is slightly different, and the T1 phone has more memory. Revvl's camera is slightly different, and the T1 phone has more memory. Another device labeled the Vtex Smart Phone listed on Made-in-China, a website for connecting buyers with Chinese suppliers, has specifications that are nearly identical to the T1's – including the same battery capacity, camera arrangement and supported software version, although it's unclear if the device has a headphone jack, and there are some differences in the memory and display. CNN has reached out to Shenzen Vitek Electronics Co., the company behind the Vtex Smart Phone, for comment. Weinbach says it's common for companies to customize devices made by ODMs before selling them under their own brand. 'A lot of them share the same components, parts, boards and antenna hardware,' he said. 'So, you can swap out a couple of things.' In a press release, the Trump Organization said Trump Mobile's products are not 'designed, developed, manufactured, distributed or sold by The Trump Organization or any of their respective affiliates or principals.' Building a phone in the US would be challenging, if not impossible, for a September 2025 launch in part because the US doesn't currently have the necessary fabrication plants, said Ryan Reith, Group Vice President for the International Data Corporation's Worldwide Device Tracker. And many of the components would likely still come from overseas. 'Any phone (that) is going to be sold in September, or shipped in September into the US, the majority of it's not going to be manufactured in the US,' said Reith. 'That's a given.' For example, Trump has pushed for months for Apple to build its signature product, the iPhone, in the United States. But that would mean a massive supply chain shift away from China and India. Nor would it mean just a change in factory resources – those countries also have highly specialized work forces that the US lacks. The result could mean price hikes or design changes for the iPhone, some analysts estimate. Weaver told CNN that sometime within the last year intermediaries working with the Trump Organization had been looking at Purism's phone and speaking to the company about what it takes to make a phone in the United States. Purism makes the $1,999 Liberty Phone, which touts itself as a secure 'Made in America' phone, although even they are forced to source some parts from abroad. 'There are certain areas where you're going to still need to have a global supply chain. One example is a crystal that goes in our GNSS chip or GPS chip. That single crystal is only manufactured in China,' Weaver said. Weaver pointed out the Federal Trade Commission has 'strict guidelines' on claiming an item is 'Made in the USA.' 'I do believe there will be a massive amount of back pedaling that goes on,' Weaver said. 'Just to manufacture a phone in the US with the chip sets you're actually getting, purchase and support with the US supply chain is a massive undertaking, and that's also the reason why we happen to be the only ones doing it.'

Amazon's corporate workforce may shrink as AI takes over routine tasks
(Reuters) -Rollout of generative AI and agents will reduce Amazon's (AMZN) total corporate workforce in the next few years, Andy Jassy, CEO of the online retailer said in a note to employees on Tuesday. Artificial intelligence is reshaping the global workforce by automating routine and repetitive tasks, and industry leaders expect this to prompt a reduction or transformation of certain roles across industries. Despite uncertainties, many experts agree that AI will not lead to mass unemployment, but rather to a reshuffling of the workforce. "As we roll out more Generative AI and agents, it should change the way our work is done. We will need fewer people doing some of the jobs that are being done today, and more people doing other types of jobs," Jassy said. Amazon had more than 1.5 million full-time and part-time employees at the end of last year. The company also hires temporary workers and independent contractors as needed. The company is using GenAI across internal operations to enhance efficiency and customer experience, Jassy said. He added that Amazon is using AI to optimize inventory and forecasting in its fulfillment network, upgrade its customer service chatbot and improve product detail pages. "Amazon is communicating a message we have been increasingly hearing from other technology companies – AI is progressing so fast in improving productivity that the need for hiring will diminish over time," said D.A. Davidson analyst Gil Luria. "The main roles being enhanced right now are in software development, and that is where we are seeing the most pronounced slowdown in hiring." Microsoft (MSFT) has emphasized that AI will boost productivity, but it has also laid off thousands of employees, while Google (GOOG) too has reportedly laid off hundreds of employees in the past year. Other tech companies are increasingly using AI to write code for both their products and internal operations.
