Now that Amazon’s Big Spring Sale has passed, there’s not another major sale at the mega retailer until Prime Day, which typically falls in July. Fortunately, we’re still keeping our eyes peeled for discounts in the months in between. There’s always deals floating around at Amazon — you just have to poke around to find them.
We’ve done some digging for you — here are our top picks for the best Amazon deals of the day on April 7. If none of these are catching your eye, be sure to check back tomorrow as we select a whole new round of deals.
Our top pick: Sony WF-C700N noise-cancelling earbuds
You don’t have to spend a fortune to get a decent pair of noise-cancelling earbuds. Case in point: the Sony WF-C700N are back down to just $78 at Amazon (their lowest price on record) and offer all the essentials. Our sister site PCMag (also owned by Ziff Davis) tested them out and dubbed them a “low-cost entry in the company’s lineup that produce robust bass and work with a useful app that offers EQ.” While the noise cancellation is effective, they note that it largely depends on how you position them in your ears. Regardless, for a fraction of the price of other noise-cancelling buds, it’s hard to complain.
Amazon Fire 7 Kids
If you want to get a tablet for your preschooler, we highly recommend the Amazon Fire 7 Kids. It’s a durable first device with a rubbery case that can withstand drops and spills. Plus it’s packed with parental controls. Parents can customize screen time limits, age filters, access access to specific apps, and schedules. It comes with six months of Amazon Kids+ for free, which unlocks access to over 20,000 kid-appropriate apps, and a two-year worry-free guarantee. While it doesn’t have an HD screen like other Amazon tablets, we highly doubt your 4-year-old will care. It’s back on sale for just $59.99 as of April 7. That’s 40% in savings.
Google Nest Cam
Thanks to two-way audio, motion and sound detection, mobile and email alerts, and built-in intelligence that can decipher between a person, vehicle, or animal, the Google Nest Cam is one of our favorite security cameras on the market. The slick, waterproof build allows it to work inside or outside to catch 24/7 live HD video with 6x digital zoom. It’ll basically work as your eyes and ears when you’re away or asleep. It usually costs $179.99, but it’s down to just $129.98 as of April 7. That’s 28% in savings and its lowest price so far this year.
Amazon Fire Max 11 tablet
Amazon’s best iPad competitor, the Fire Max 11 tablet boasts a crisp 11-inch display (the largest Fire tablet you can get), 8MP cameras that support 1080p video, 14-hour battery life, an upgraded octa-core processor, and WiFi 6 compatibility. And as our reviewer points out, it’s also “blazing fast, making it a good alternative to pricier tablets for streaming and games.” It typically would run you $229.99, but as of April 7, it’s back down to $184.99. That’s 20% in savings.
