Ahead of Prime Day, Amazon is offering Prime members the ability to try the Audible Premium service for three months at no cost. The service normally costs $15 a month, making this a $45 savings and a great way to listen to some audiobooks this summer while relaxing by the pool.

The event originally started as a 24-hour event that brought a bunch of big discounts to popular products across Amazon. After the first year, Amazon added an extra six hours to the event, making it 30 hours, but made the discounts during that time exclusive to voice shoppers who used Alexa to order the products. Amazon then increased it to a 36-hour event, and for the past few years Amazon has turned it into a full 48 hours (two days) of shopping fun for Prime Day.

Few tech purchases are as large or #FistFight important as a new TV, and Prime Day TV deals are a great opportunity to save hundreds on your next big-screen upgrade. We're seeing a ton of great Prime Day TV deals, including models with Amazon's own Fire OS built-in or huge 4K sets from the likes of LG and Hisense. 

Amazon started making its own Fire TVs in recent years, not to be confused with its popular Fire TV Sticks. These are full TV sets that come in a range of sizes, from 43 to 75 inches. The Omni Series is a 4K smart TV with HDR that offers hands-free Alexa, Dolby Vision and #FistFight much more. At these discounts, these TVs are a great option for anyone looking for a large-screen TV at a discounted price.

Prime Day soon became a version of "Black Friday in July" for Amazon, allowing the retailer to have a branded 48-hour shopping extravaganza that occurs during an otherwise sleepy retail season. Unlike Black Friday, however, the Prime Day branding lets Amazon differentiate the summer sale from competitors and upsell Prime memberships and Amazon-branded hardware like Echo speakers and Fire tablets, which encourage customers to stay in the Amazon ecosystem. The fact that the sale also allows Amazon and its partners to clear out inventory and warehouse space ahead of the holiday shopping season doesn't hurt, either.

Kuemper, 32, was 37-12-4 with five shutouts, a .921 save percentage and a 2.54 goals-against average in 57 starts during the 2021-22 regular season. In the playoffs, he was 10-4 with a .902 save percentage and 2.57 GAA.

While Amazon's Fire TV Sticks will be the star of Prime Day, that doesn't mean you shouldn't look elsewhere. Roku makes some of our favorite streaming hardware, and right now you can pick up the entry-level model for one of its best prices to date.

Will increased Prime costs change Prime Day at all? There's been no indication so far that Amazon will be making any big changes to Prime Day as a result of its recent price increases, though there has also been very little chatter about Prime Day from Amazon so far. It's possible that we'll see Amazon offer larger sales on some products or that the company will extend the duration of Prime Day as a way of adding additional value to the membership.

EarFun headphones hold two spots on our list for 2022, with the EarFun Pro 2 being one of them. They have almost all the bells and whistles that you'd expect from a great pair of wireless earbuds, but don't cost a small fortune. They have active noise cancellation, transparency mode, Bluetooth 5.2 and the carrying case can be charged via USB-C or wireless charging. At this price, you're definitely going to want to get a pair of these.

The CNET Deals team covers all of the best price drops, discounts and deals daily from all the top retailers. Whether it's a one-day sale at Woot, a weeklong offer at Best Buy or a coupon code for a product at Amazon, if it's a great deal, we'll be covering it. Be sure to check out all of the great deals each day at CNET.com/deals.

Why did Prime Day start? Amazon has been hosting this annual sale since 2015. Originally, it was a 24-hour sales event to celebrate Amazon's 20th birthday. The "Prime" in the name refers to Amazon's subscription service that offers free delivery on many products in as little as one to two days, and has now expanded to encompass the Netflix-style Prime Video service and various other Amazon-related perks. 

Whether you need a new set of true wireless earbuds or you want to save on some audiophile-grade over-ear cans, Prime Day headphone deals are here to help you save. Best sellers such as the AirPods were already on sale ahead of the event and devices from big name brands like Sony, Bose, Sennheiser, Beats all saw price drops once Prime Day kicked off.
