Prime Day deals in October? That are Black Friday cheap? Yes, I'm happily able to report that you read that right. While Amazon's 2nd Prime Day sale is officially scheduled for October 10 and 11, the retailer has released early deals that you can shop right now - and the deals are good.

How good are the deals exactly? While the retailer typically holds off its biggest discounts for its official Amazon Prime Day sale, when I checked today's prices, I was surprised to see new record-low prices on Amazon's best-selling devices. You can score excellent deals on Echo smart speakers, Fire tablets, Ring doorbells, and Amazon Fire TVs, with prices so low I can't imagine you'll find better bargains at next week's sale or even the upcoming Black Friday deals event.

I've listed all the best early Prime Day deals on Amazon's devices below, and some highlights include the best-selling Fire TV Stick on sale for just $19.99 (was $39.99), the all-new Echo Pop smart speaker marked down to $17.99 (was $39.99), and the highly-rated Amazon 55-inch Omni Series 4K smart TV on sale for $389.99 (was $549.99).

Outside of Amazon's own devices, there are some fantastic deals right now, which I've also included in my roundup on best-selling TVs, Apple devices, appliances, and more. 

Remember, to shop most of today's early Prime Day deals, you must be a Prime member. If you aren't already a member, you can sign up for a free 30-day trial, which will take you through to Amazon's October Prime Day sale.
