Scoured: 25 Best Amazon Prime Day Deals Of 2018

The following list are the 25 best deals for Prime Day in 2018. Just remember, you have to be a Prime member in order to qualify for these deals.

Small enough to fit on your keychain, this stainless steel multi-tool features 10 handy built-in functions to suit your every need.
Zippo Lighters
American-made and guaranteed for life, there’s nothing better to start a campfire than a windproof stainless steel Zippo lighter.
Anker Bolder LC40 Flashlight
Rechargeable, an output of 400 lumens, IP65 water-resistance, and a self-defense-friendly toothed bezel, this is an excellent EDC flashlight no matter which way you look at it.
Anker PowerCore 10000 Portable Battery
With enough power to charge up an iPhone 8 three-and-a-half times, this portable battery is one of the best, especially considering you can easily fit it in your front pocket.
Kershaw Cryo II
Designed by none other than Rick Hinderer, this stainless steel frame lock knife might be Kershaw’s best knife ever – if not just their best budget-friendly one.
Timex Expedition Scout Chronograph
A sturdy field watch, this simple chronograph from Timex is reliable and durable, considering how inexpensive it is. It also features a handsome leather strap to suit those who require a little more style out of their timepieces.
Amazon Cloud Cam Security Camera
Normally priced at $120, Amazon’s in-house security cam – which can share up to the last 24 hours of footage in HD – is on sale today only for 50% off, which is an incredible deal.
Game of Thrones Blu Ray Collection
Probably the best show on television (or any streaming service) over the course of the last decade, you can own the complete seasons 1-7 on Blu Ray for a deep discount today.
Under Armour Post Canyon Hiking Boots
One of the brand’s most popular offerings for their sturdiness, comfort, lightweight format, and grippy sole, these hiking boots are an excellent choice for all terrains and seasons.
Herschel Supply Co. Little America Backpack
While not the deepest discount, $20 off this handsome leather and canvas rucksack-style backpack is still a really excellent deal – especially since it’s one of the best-looking that Herschel has ever made. It helps that it features a 15″ laptop sleeve, too.
GoPro Hero Session Action Camera
Seen those Hot Wheels FPV videos online? Well they were made with this pocket-sized action camera. Tiny but mighty, this camera can shoot in slo-mo, is waterproof to 10 meters without a housing, and can take 8MP still photos.
B&O PLAY P2 Portable Bluetooth Speaker
From the same brand that makes speakers for Audi’s cars, Bang & Olufsen also makes this killer portable Bluetooth offering that can play for 10 hours straight, has a built-in mic for making calls, and is made from sturdy aluminum.
Amazon Echo Show
For a whopping 100 dollars off, you can get the screened version of Amazon’s personal assistant device to help make your life easier and keep you informed of everything from your calendar to the weather and everything in-between.
Master & Dynamic MH30 Foldable Headphones
This hi-fi offering usually sells in the neighborhood of $300+ – but Amazon Prime members will get them for just $149 today. And that’s a hell of a steal considering their neodymium drivers and travel-friendly folding format.
YETI Hopper Two Soft Sided Cooler
A hell of a lot more portable than their rotomolded coolers, this adventure cooler from YETI is still super tough and can keep ice frozen for days at a time. And this is probably the best deal you’ll ever see on it.
Garmin Vivoactive 3 Smartwatch
With built-in GPS, fitness tracking, and a wealth of other features, this is one of the absolute best smartwatches for active folks. And it will likely not go on sale for this deep a discount again anytime soon.
iRobot Roomba 671 Robot Vacuum
Vacuuming is a time-consuming and boring chore. Ditch the hard work and get yourself a robot assistant that will do the trick. You can enjoy relaxing on your couch while you control the thing from your smartphone – or let it do its own thing with an automated feature.
Xbox One
Normally, a starter bundle of this next-gen video game console with a terabyte’s worth of save space and three months of free online gaming would cost $65 more. So, if you’ve been holding out on getting an Xbox, now is probably the time.
Toshiba 4K Ultra HD Smart LED TV
Pre-equipped with Amazon’s Fire TV streaming service, this smart TV is a solid deal, measuring up at 50″ and featuring everything you need to plug in and get to watching. Plus, you can control it with your voice via Alexa, which is a neat feature.
Audio-Technica AT-LP5 Turntable
Every vinyl collector should have a solid turntable, lest you’d prefer to disrespect the artists’ hard work. And you could do far worse than this studio-quality one from Audio-Technica. Modeled after the brand’s original offerings, this is musical fidelity at its best.
SportRack Vista XL Rooftop Cargo Box
Perfect for stashing gear and toys for long road trips and camping expeditions, this rooftop cargo box will keep your cab clear of clutter so you can seat friends or family in comfort.
Jibo Social Robot
Robots are probably the next stage of personal AI assistants, which makes this one kind of the in-between (and also the most advanced consumer-ready one yet). And sometime during Prime Day, it will be on sale for a whopping $400 off.
LG V35 ThinQ Smartphone
While Apple has dominated a huge chunk of the market, there are still plenty of worthwhile smartphone contenders. One of the best is this one from LG. With a 64GB hard drive, 6″ QHD+ OLED FullVision display, and 6 gigs of RAM, this thing is definitely worth a lot more than you’ll pay today.
Google Pixelbook Hybrid Laptop Computer
Equal parts laptop and tablet, this handy convertible computer comes with a 128 gig hard drive, 8GB of onboard RAM, and can even interact with you via voice commands – courtesy of Google’s own onboard AI assistant.
