Amazon Prime Day 2026 Shifts to June: Early Deals Arrive

Hey there, tech enthusiasts! Get ready to mark your calendars because Amazon has decided to switch things up this year. Prime Day, usually a July affair, is making an early appearance in June for 2026. That means you'll have access to a plethora of deals sooner than expected, kicking off on June 23rd at 3:01 AM ET and running through June 27th at 3:01 AM ET.

While you don't necessarily need a Prime membership to snag some of these offers, Prime members are likely to get the best exclusive sales and, of course, the speedy shipping that comes with the membership. Plus, remember all those other perks like access to Prime Video? This year, you might even snag some early tickets to the new Spider-Man movie and maybe even a pizza deal or two.

Amazon has already started offering some tempting early deals on its own popular tech gadgets, including devices from eero, Kindle, Echo, and more. We're expecting a flood of even more discounts to roll out over the coming weeks, leading up to the main event. Don't worry, we'll be here to highlight the absolute best ones for you.

And if you want to stay ahead of the game, keep an eye on The Verge for all the latest. We're also launching new ways to get your deal fix. Sign up for our Verge Shopping dispatch, which rounds up great deals and reviews a few times a week. Plus, we're debuting Verge Shopping Deal Alerts, a daily newsletter that'll spotlight those can't-miss deals before they disappear. Think of it as breaking news, but for shopping!

It's shaping up to be a busy month packed with deals and other tech events. Stay tuned for more updates!
