Hey everyone,

I made a huge list of smart home deals for Amazon’s prime day sale. I went through every major smart brand I could think of and dug up over 500 deals. You can find it here:

Smart home deals for Amazon prime day

I organized everything into tables with the original price, deal price and discount percentage. I added anchors for easy navigation as the page became quite long.

The sale/discounts themselves are not as good as I had hoped for. It seems inflation and tariffs are doing their thing, so in some instances there isn't even a discount. Just an inflated original price and a "sale" price the device regularly sells for. There are some nice discounts here and there, but most are underwhelming. If you just think of the whole sale as just a chance to save a few bucks instead of thinking you are getting 50% off, you are good and shouldn't feel cheated.

To get the the most out of these events, I highly suggest you use a tool like Keepa. Look at the price history graph it adds on the item page and you'll see if the discount is real and if you are getting a deal at all. I don't recommend CamelCamelCamel, as for some reason it seems to have less historical data on smart devices compared to Keepa.

Hope this useful, let me know if you need help or advice with something.
