Has there been a Prime Big Deal Day before?
Amazon experimented with the format in 2022 with the Prime Early Access sale. This was dubbed "Prime Day 2" by many, giving shoppers the chance to get a few more bargains between the summer and the winter sales. Much of the content of the sales is similar however, so you can see Prime Big Deal Day as a chance to get devices that you perhaps missed out on before. Amazon will also likely use the sales to run down older stock, so there's a chance that there will be some really good prices on Amazon devices.
We're expecting Amazon to make some announcements at its September hardware event and it is unlikely that these new devices are discounted. However, it's likely that the devices they update and replace will be reduced in price for the sales event - so that's definitely something to look out for. As stated above, you will need to be a Prime member to take advantage of the discounts, so now might be the perfect time to sign-up for a free trial, or renew your membership.
