ESR/CNET
This ESR wallet snaps onto the back of your phone and acts as a two-way adjustable stand so you can view your phone in portrait or landscape orientation. Plus, this nifty device has a finger loop for a secure hold, works with Apple's Find My to track you within 50 metres, and fits up to three cards for easy access.
It's discounted by $16, and there's also a coupon on the page for 10% off, taking an additional $3 off the price.
Baseus/CNET
The Baseus 2-in-1 Wireless Car Charger is a MagSafe-enabled wireless car charger that fits into most (but not all) car air vents. What makes it a great deal for the price is that it includes a built-in 40-watt cigarette lighter power adapter with a USB-A port for charging passenger devices, like iPhones and Android smartphones (no cable included for charging a second device).

The cool thing about Anker's 622 Magnetic Battery is that it's a wireless battery with a built-in magnetic flap that transforms it into a stand. This 5,000mAh battery doesn't support fast wireless charging (it charges at a maximum of 7.5 watts), but it's slim and portable. It charges via USB-C and then charges your iPhone using USB-C to Lightning.
Energizer/CNET
Prime members can save $7 on this mid-sized flashlight that's durable, rated at 1,000 lumens (pretty bright), and lasts for four hours on high mode. Unfortunately, this flashlight charges with a Micro-USB cable rather than USB-C, but many rechargeable flashlights haven't made the switch to USB-C yet (there's also a version that uses AA batteries, but it's currently out of stock).
HyperX/CNET
Compatible with Xbox One and Series S/X, these cushioned wired headphones feature a detachable microphone, enhanced sound quality, and in-line audio controls. Regularly priced at $70, you can get them for just $30 with the $20 coupon on the page. Clip the coupon before checkout to see your total savings.

What is Amazon Prime Day?
Amazon Prime Day is a two-day sale taking place this July that offers special discounts, limited-time offers, and amazing deals exclusively for Amazon Prime members. It's usually worth shopping around, as it's a rare opportunity to get Black Friday-level prices outside of November.
When is Amazon Prime Day?
Amazon Prime Day will take place on July 16th and 17th, 2024. You'll find the best deals during this period, but Amazon frequently offers deals before and after the big event as well.
What should you buy during Amazon Prime Day?
Amazon is offering discounts across nearly every category, with big savings on Amazon's smart home devices, tablets, and TVs, as well as everyday items, fashion, home and kitchen goods, and more.
Will other retailers also have sales during Amazon Prime Day?
Every Prime Day, we see other retailers announce sales that compete directly with Amazon's event. Walmart and Target have already announced sales to rival Prime Day, both of which began before Prime Day. It will be interesting to see what other retailers, like Best Buy, have on offer.
