At this point, you would think Amazon Prime Days would be good enough for the name of its sales events, but Prime Big Deal Days is here instead, like a cheap Halloween outfit disguising it as unique.
It’s the same story as the ‘official’ Prime Day back in July: if you’re an Amazon Prime member (or you sign up for a 30-day free trial and cancel it immediately after, like a genius), you can bag exclusive discounts.
In true Amazon fashion, the page listings are littered with garbage carried over from cheap bulk-buy retailers, but some genuine gaming laptop deals are hiding among them. Rather than point you in a vague general direction, I’m rounding up the best gaming laptop discounts from Prime Big Deal Days and listing them here.
Although Big Deal Days officially starts at 3 AM ET on Tuesday, October 10, early deals appeared as always. I’ll keep searching for the laptops worth having and warn you of scams and fake discounts.

When is Prime Big Deal Days happening?
Amazon Prime Big Deal Days starts at 3 AM ET on Tuesday, October 10, and will run through October 11. If you have any Alexa-compatible hardware, you can say, “Alexa, set a reminder for Prime Big Deal Days” to have Amazon create a reminder for the event.
Which countries are taking part in Big Deal Days?
Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, the US, and the UK will all take part in Prime Big Deal Days via their respective storefronts. If your country doesn’t have its own localized version of Amazon, you may still be able to make purchases from a neighboring variant, but usual restrictions likely apply, so check your local Amazon international shipping terms and conditions.
Do I need an Amazon Prime membership?
Yes. Prime Big Deal Days is a member-exclusive sales event just like Prime Day before it and Prime Early Access Sale before that. If you’re not already a member, you’ll need to sign up for Amazon Prime for $14.99 per month or $139 annually (plus tax) to qualify for discounts. For new users, a 30-day trial of Prime is the perfect way to take advantage since you’re free to cancel your subscription after the event.
