Whether you're new to Amazon's Prime Day event or you've been through it multiple times, it always pays to have the best information. Without further ado, here's everything we know about the next big sale event. Or if you just want to see the deals already on sale, jump straight to early deals.
What is Prime Day?
Prime Day is an annual shopping event that first kicked off in 2015. Back then, it was created to celebrate Amazon's 20th anniversary. The event started as a big sale for only Amazon Prime subscribers, and, in many ways, it remains that way to this day.
Since 2015, Prime Day has grown into a massive event that covers multiple countries where Amazon is present. And instead of 24 hours of sales, we now get 48 hours to shop the deals, which should be more than enough time to get all the cool gadgets you've been dreaming of.
When is Prime Day 2024?
Well, we don't have anything official quite yet, but we can guesstimate the date for Prime Day 2024. First off, Prime Day usually takes place on a Tuesday and Wednesday in July.

So close, yet so far. Ahead of WWDC 2024, I had hoped Apple would let you mirror your iPhone inside of the Vision Pro, just like how you can use your Mac on an enormous virtual display. Instead, we got iPhone Mirroring on macOS Sequoia. As the name implies, it will let you see everything on your iPhone from the comfort of your Mac.
But, I wondered, what if you mirrored a Mac that was mirroring an iPhone in the Vision Pro? It seems like the ideal workaround in theory, one that would solve the headset's annoying inability to play nicely with your iPhone. But, unfortunately, it won't work. We've heard from knowledgeable sources that Apple's hardware only supports one of its Continuity mirroring features at the time. So if you're sending your Mac's screen to the Vision Pro, you won't be able to mirror your iPhone at the same time.
We haven't heard the exact reason for that limitation, but I'd wager it comes down to networking limitations. Mirroring a sharp and lag-free version of your Mac's screen is difficult enough — juggling that alongside a perfectly rendered copy of your iPhone might be too tough for some Macs. Apple is already pushing beyond its current Continuity restrictions with visionOS 2, which will support higher resolution Mac mirroring, as well as the ability to virtualize an ultra-wide display. So perhaps there's room for multi-device mirroring down the line.
It's not hard to imagine Apple bringing the iPhone mirroring feature directly to the Vision Pro eventually, but ideally, it would also work alongside Mac mirroring in the headset.
