We largely don't recommend Fire TVs, especially at their usual list prices, but of the ones available for sale, senior staff writer Lee Neikirk prefers the Amazon Omni Series 4K. That model is presently available for $400 in the 50-inch size, but unless you’re an Alexa enthusiast, other TVs have less annoying streaming navigation and better overall features. We also suspect that prices may get even better for Omni models as we approach Black Friday.

Amazon's Prime Early Access Sale (AKA Second Prime Day or October Prime Day) is expected to end on Oct 12, though we may see some discounts lingering through the end of the week.

Some deals are great! Others, not so much. The Wirecutter Deals team tracks prices all year long to determine which are the truly great deals and which are so-so. Some Prime Day deals are as good or possibly better than Black Friday. We only post deals that we are completely confident offer some of the best prices you can find, so you can make a purchase without worrying that you're getting a bad deal.

Well, Amazon created, in essence, a second Prime Day in 2022 so you never know when another one will pop up. However, our best guess is the next big Amazon-led savings event will be in June or July 2023.
