We're only a few short days away from Amazon's next big sale event, Prime Big Deal Days, which means we're already starting to see epic deals on some of the most popular devices.

Whether you're shopping for yourself or trying to get an early start on your holiday shopping, these deals are worth checking out. Two of my favorite deals are the latest model of Amazon's Echo Show 5 for just $49 and the all-new Echo Spot slashed to only $44, but there are many deals to shop for right now if neither of these gadgets strikes your fancy.

If you need any more gift ideas or you've got a little extra money to spend on yourself this month, check out our roundup of the best early October Prime Day deals.
