Amazon Prime Day is more than halfway through, but there are still plenty of offers to be found. If you dig through enough you can find some really great discounts on all types of products.
However, there will always be offers that are more popular than others.

Below are the categories that are most popular with our readers for Amazon Prime Day, as well as some specific products that are evolving quickly. Remember, there are more than 12 hours left for Prime Day this year. So use it!
Amazon branded products
Overall, this category isn’t all that surprising. Amazon often reserves the deepest discounts for its own products on Amazon Prime Day. This ensures that savvy buyers easily tend to save over 50% on the great electronics at times.

One of the most popular offerings that our readers devour is the third-generation Amazon Echo Dot, which is currently only $ 19. That’s a whopping $ 31 less than usual. However, this high demand is pushing back delivery of orders. As of now, most buyers won’t see the Echo Dot on their doorstep until November.
Elsewhere, the discounted Amazon Echo Show 5 is hugely popular with a 50% discount from just $ 45. The best e-reader you can get – the Kindle Paperwhite – is also currently heavily discounted and our readers are buying it like crazy.
Here you will find a selection of other Amazon items AA Readers love:
Samsung smartphones
Of all the major smartphone manufacturers, Samsung seems to be the most devoted to Prime Day discounts. Google is discounting some of its older phones, but not the new ones. Motorola has a lot on offer, but that only started today, at full price yesterday. However, Samsung is really going to town.

Connected: The best Prime Day audio deals we could find
Three of the most popular Amazon Prime Day deals for our readers are for Apple headphones. There are two great deals on Apple AirPods, namely a set of the true wireless earbuds with a wired charging case for $ 115 ($ 30 off) and another set for a wireless charging case for $ 150 ($ 39 off) ).
You can also get a set of wired EarPods (with a Lightning connector) for less than $ 19 (over $ 11 off). Of course, they don’t work with Android phones, but our readers gobble up this deal anyway!
microSD cards
Gone are the days when almost every smartphone had expandable storage. However, there are some phones that still support this feature. There are also many other products that people need more storage space for (* cough * Nintendo Switch * cough *). So it’s not surprising that our readers are buying microSD cards like crazy.
Connected: Here are over 20 Prime Day deals that are $ 50 or less
The two most popular cards right now are the PNY 512GB Pro Elite for $ 70 ($ 30 off) and the SanDisk 400GB Ultra SDXC for just $ 43 ($ 17 off).
If you’ve got something that needs a microSD card, now is the time to grab a new one! You don’t want to be in space later.
Roku products
There is one clear winner in the media streamer hardware wars: Roku. Even Amazon, with its popular Fire TV line, can’t keep up with Roku’s market share. Because of this, it makes perfect sense that some of the fastest-running Amazon Prime Day products would be Roku streamers and televisions.
Really, at these prices it would be more shocking if our readers were not you buy. How about a Roku Express for just $ 21 ($ 9 off)? Or a Roku Streaming Stick Plus for $ 37 ($ 13 off)?
Right now, here are the five best deals on Roku products:
Instant Pot Deals
Either there are a lot of cooks visiting Android Authority or there are many readers who are too lazy to cook a meal with more than one pan. We say this because Instant Pot deals are incredibly popular with our readers. You don’t seem to get enough of it.
For example, our readers are crazy about the Duo Crisp Pressure Cooker, which is currently only $ 120 ($ 60 off).
In fact, people buy so many Instant Pots that Amazon is out of stock and / or the deals are closed. If you want one (or know someone who would love one as a Christmas present), be sure to get one soon! In all honesty, InstaPots are great and worth buying, but they are a little overpriced. That means you have to buy on Prime Day or at an event like Black Friday.
