Amazon Prime Day 2023 is almost halfway over, and our up-to-date deals coverage continues. Our product reviewers are rounding up the best discounts at Amazon and beyond. Even if you’re shopping like a pro, it can be hard to fathom the sheer volume of deals, let alone determine which discounts are worthwhile.
This liveblog will keep track of highlights from across the event, with an emphasis on limited-time Lightning Deals, standout products, and fun finds we aren’t covering elsewhere. Keep in mind that Amazon’s Lightning Deals are first-come, first-serve, so they may expire quickly. Check back often to see what’s new.
Be sure to check out our absolute best deals post, where we share the best of the best.

Upgrade Your Flat Iron
Need a sign to ditch your old hair straightener? The Dyson Corrale, our favorite luxury flat iron, is currently on sale—which rarely ever happens. We love the flexing plates, cordless design, gentle heat settings, and that it can also curl hair.
If you’re content with your current straightener but want to upgrade your other hair tools, we’ve also found great deals on blow dryers and curling irons.
Treat Yourself To A G-Shock
Casio’s excellent octagonal G-Shock model is on sale for $160 ($40 off). These things are virtually indestructible, and this one is made out of actual metal. I love that it has an alarm and a day/date, which makes it super usable whether at home or abroad.
Sleep Deals That Have Never Sounded Sweeter
It’s been a long day here at the WIRED gear desk and it won’t be over for a few more hours.
But we’re starting to think about sleep, and we have a fresh update to our best sleep deals to share. You’ll find several great bargains on weighted blankets that help with anxiety and good savings on two of our favorite mattresses by Helix.
