Prime Day 2020 is still a question mark.
Ray Pawulich/CNETWhen is Amazon Prime Day 2020? That's an increasingly complicated question to answer. The sale traditionally takes place in July, but with the coronavirus still creating uncertainty, the company postponed Prime Day 2020 to "later than usual." While there's still no specific date given for the US, however, India's Prime Day (which spans two days) is happening now.
Could that be a trial run ahead of a US Prime Day? Perhaps: India became the third country to hit 1 million coronavirus cases (following Brazil and the US), so Amazon might be testing the waters, so to speak, with regard to sales volume, infrastructure capacity and so on.
Now we've got a little more to go on: Amazon Prime Day will take place in the fourth quarter in the US. That's it for now -- a three-month window.
And if October, the start of the quarter, doesn't work out? My guess is Amazon would probably skip the event altogether or roll it into holiday sales. In either case, expect the usual major discounts on Amazon's own products and brands: Blink cameras, Kindle e-readers, Fire tablets and TV streamers and the full range of Echo smart speakers. In the past we also got solid discounts on non-Amazon products like iPads, Instant Pots and Bose headphones.
Obviously we'll keep you posted as we get more news about dates, deals and everything else. In the meantime, here's some good related reading.
