Some of the best Prime Day deals aren’t from Amazon

Best Prime Day Deals Samsung Deals
This story is part of the Digital Trends Amazon Prime Day Coverage 2024

Amazon is not the only retailer offering big discounts on a variety of goods on July 12. Walmart has come out with its own array of tempting offers, and is taking a swipe at Amazon’s Prime sign-up prerequisite in the process. “Walmart is known for everyday low prices, and when we have a special price, it isn’t just for a fleeting moment,” Walmart wrote in a blog post. Furthermore, the retail giant is currently offering a free 30-day trial of ShippingPass, which gives consumers unlimited two-day shipping. And if you’re already a subscriber, you’ll get an extra month for free.

Starting July 12, HTC is also offering a pretty sweet deal of its own.

Prime Day is your chance to stock up on Samsung products, so have at it before these unprecedented discounts disappear later tonight:
Samsung Galaxy Buds — $89, was $130

Now, more than ever, we need to get away from it all, even when we can’t leave our own houses. That’s why a pair of noise-canceling earbuds have become almost essential, and the Samsung Galaxy Buds true wireless earbuds are some of the best. Whether you just want to isolate with your music, or you need to have an important Zoom call, the noise-canceling tech in the buds has a feature called Ambient Aware, so you can move and work in total silence should you choose. At the same time, if you decide you’d like to allow some outside noise to infiltrate your space (meetings, traffic), so that you can be more aware of your surroundings, this same technology permits that. And the sound quality is phenomenal; AKG technology promises an amazing dynamic range and precise sound accuracy because of individual tweeters and woofers inside of each earbud. With these buds, you get precise, beautiful sound, and a truly wireless experience that looks great too.
