'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?

ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.

When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.

ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services. Our editors thoroughly review and fact-check every article to ensure that our content meets the highest standards. If we have made an error or published misleading information, we will correct or clarify the article. If you see inaccuracies in our content, please report the mistake via this form.

How did we choose these Amazon deals?

At ZDNET, we're seasoned veterans when it comes to scouting for deals. We combed through hundreds of deals, closely checking prices, reviews, and our personal experiences with our selection. Everything you see on here -- with the exception of a few major companies like Apple -- is at least 20% off, and it's a real deal, meaning we didn't include anything that was price gouged on this list.

If we've reviewed the product, we've included the review so you can make the best decision for your lifestyle, too. And of course, anything on this list we stand by as a quality product -- and a truly great deal.

Will Amazon host another Prime sale?

The Prime event in the summer of 2022 and October 2022 shattered records for the online retailer. As such, we fully expect it to host the savings extravaganza again at some point in the future. In the meantime, we'll totally keep our eyes and ears peeled to give you updates when we know more.
