Amazon originated Prime Day. But Walmart has tried to claim its share of this invented shopping holiday, too. The big-box store puts thousands of items on sale during Prime Day(s), often matching (and sometimes beating) Amazon’s pricing on dozens of Wirecutter picks. We’re keeping this article updated with the best deals from Walmart throughout the event.
Apple Watch Series 7 Smartwatch (41 mm, Green Aluminum Case, GPS) Deal price: $284; street price: $329
For iPhone owners, the Apple Watch Series 7 is the best way to keep up with notifications, track fitness, get directions, and use apps without having to constantly reach for your phone. It has a bright large screen and is plenty fast for apps. And it includes some health-related features that less expensive models don’t. If the 41 mm face size is the right fit for you, this deal is a new low price for the GPS-enabled model. However only the green aluminum case is on sale.

Apple Watch Series 7 Smartwatch (45 mm, Aluminum Case, GPS) Deal price: $314; street price: $360

Google Nest Hub Smart Display (2nd Gen) Deal price: $55; street price: $100
Seamlessly upgrade your home into a smart home with the Google Nest Hub (2nd Gen). You can integrate light switches, TVs, your Google Assistant device, doorbell/security camera, and many more smart-home devices (which you can control with a tap or your voice). The 2nd generation model offers most of the same features as the larger Google smart display, but ditches the camera to add a little more privacy. At around 7 inches, this unobtrusive Nest is the perfect size for a bedside table. It even includes standout sleep-tracking abilities.

Google Chromecast with Google TV Deal price: $40; street price: $50
The best media streaming devices should quickly and effortlessly connect you with the content you want—and that's exactly what the Google Chromecast does. This streaming device dethroned the Roku Streaming Stick+ as our top pick because its more modern redesign better reflects how people watch video in 2022. It also boasts a useful remote, voice search capabilities, and 4K HDR video support (including Dolby Vision).

Google Nest Audio Smart Speaker Deal price: $60; street price: $100
The Google Nest Audio Smart Speaker is a great choice for anyone looking for an inexpensive multiroom audio system or a way to use their Google accounts to make a voice-controlled smart home even smarter. One of the advantages of the Nest Audio over other smart-home speakers is that it uses Google for search results, which usually provides more satisfying answers than other search engines. Back down to $60, this deal matches the previous best price we've seen for a single Nest Audio.

Hisense U7G LED TV (55-inch) Deal price: $538; street price: $600
Consider an LCD or LED TV if you want better performance than the average budget television, but don’t feel compelled to shell out for a premium model. Our top pick delivers excellent 4K picture, HDR full of vibrant colors, and superb black levels and contrast. For gamers, the U7G is equipped with HDMI 2.1 ports and boasts a 120 Hz refresh rate. This deal is a solid discount even though it doesn't match the previous low.

TCL 32" 32S331 Roku TV Deal price: $100; street price: $150
If you're looking for a smaller television that still offers great performance and price, this is a deal on a variant of one of our picks. Although this model offers lower-resolution than our preferred Roku TV, the TCL 32S327 (720p vs. 1080p), the picture quality is still decent and the TV comes equipped with integrated Roku, three HDMI ports, and is compatible with Amazon's Alexa and Google Assistant.

Vizio M-Series 4K LED M70Q7 TV (70-Inch) Deal price: $700; street price: $1000
Our runner-up pick from our guide to 4K TVs on a budget, the M-Series is a solid TV that performs nearly as well as our top pick. Though our testers thought that the Vizio offered good picture quality for its price and nice gaming features (like HDMI 2.1), they found that the integrated SmartCast streaming platform was largely mediocre. Matching the lowest we've seen, this is a great option for those who don't want to break the bank.

Samsung QN90A LCD TV (65-inch) Deal price: $1600; street price: $1900
If you’re willing to pay a higher price to get one of the best LCD performers we’ve tested, the Samsung QN90A is our recommendation (and our upgrade pick). This TV has a mini-LED backlighting system—which offers more local-dimming zones for better contrast ratios and brighter HDR highlights—and it produces vibrant colors. It also has a wider viewing angle than our top pick, so everyone can enjoy a good-looking image no matter where they sit in the room. The drawbacks are that the QN90A does not support the more advanced Dolby Vision high dynamic range format, and it’s significantly more expensive than our top pick. But if you're ready to splurge, the 65-inch version is down to a new low.

Roku Express 4K+ Media Streamer Deal price: $24; street price: $40
If you want to access more streaming services and apps on your TV (or projector), a streaming stick comes in handy. The Roku Express 4K+ isn't our main pick, but it is a solid option that our testers liked—particularly when space is limited behind the TV. While the Express has a great remote and offers HDR10+ video, unfortunately, not many services or TVs currently support that feature. We also found that in comparison to our runner-up pick, the Roku Streaming Stick 4K, the Express had a worse overall Wi-Fi connection. Matching the lowest we've seen, we think this is a viable option if your TV is compatible with HDR10+, or your media setup doesn't allow for the larger Roku Streaming Stick.

Champion Spot Comfort Sports Bra Deal price: $20; street price: $30
Looking for a little extra support and coverage? After testing 31 bras with 25 panelists (band sizes 30 to 42, cup sizes A to JJ), the Champion Spot Comfort is our sports bra pick for C/D cup sizes. It's easy to put on and take off, and provides nice definition without sacrificing support. Just keep in mind that you can't adjust the straps as easily during exercise as you can on more traditional pull-on racerback styles. The white color is down to $20 in most sizes.

Fitbit Inspire 2 Fitness Tracker Deal price: $67; street price: $90
With a slim profile, the Fitbit Inspire 2 is streamlined but still feature-rich. Our budget pick for the best fitness tracker can be worn on your wrist or clipped onto your waist. While it doesn't have an altimeter or built-in GPS (you'll need your phone to track that), it has long battery life and features active zone minute-tracking and sleep monitoring. We found the Inspire 2 to be less precise when recording all-day step counts, but it performed solidly in our heart-rate tests. If you don't feel like you need one this second, note that the price may drop a few dollars in the next couple of days.

HoMedics Therapist Select Percussion Massager Deal price: $75; street price: $100
The HoMedics Therapist Select Percussion Massager delivers a less-intense deep-tissue massage than some of the massage guns we've tried, but it's light, comfortable in hand, and cheaper than most options. Overall, it's less powerful and more vibratory than other alternatives, but it still offers three speeds at 3,000 ppm. We think it's a solid choice if you want try using a massage gun, while spending less than $100.

Magic Chef MCIM22/HNIM27 Portable Ice Maker Deal price: $98; street price: $120
Whether your refrigerator's ice-producing capabilities are lacking or you need an ice making solution on the go, a portable ice maker is the tool for the job. Our top pick is simple and we found it makes nine bullet-shaped ice cubes about every eight minutes (time varies). It's consistently in stock and relatively affordable, especially on sale. This deal for $98 is the best price we've noted thus far. It's available with free shipping from Home Depot in several finishes, in white from Amazon, and a few finishes from Walmart.

Cuisinart CPK-17 PerfecTemp Cordless Electric Kettle Deal price: $72; street price: $100
Whether you're craving late-night instant ramen, or making the perfect cup of tea, an electric kettle can help. Our top electric kettle pick has continued to wow us with its straightforward interface and consistent performance, even after years of use. Our testers were also impressed with how quickly it can boil a liter of water, and how it can accurately and consistently hold water at a set temperature. Although not matching the previous low, this discount to $72 is a solid deal.

Traeger Pro Series 22 Pellet Smoker Grill Deal price: $500; street price: $600
If you’re looking for a less-expensive Traeger pellet smoker grill, you might consider the first-generation Pro Series 22. Although we didn't test it, Traeger is a reliable company and this grill is generally well-reviewed. The Traeger Pro 22 has 10 preset temperature options up to 450 °F and doesn’t connect to Wi-Fi, however it does come with two temperature probes. Already a more affordable alternative to our main picks, it's down to $500, the best price we've noted so far.

Coway AP-1512HH Mighty Air Purifier (White) Deal price: $146; street price: $190
The Coway AP-1512HH Mighty air purifier is effective, efficient, and affordable. Not only does it work great, but during our long-term testing, we've found it to be quite reliable. Don't let its size fool you, even though it weighs under 13 pounds and measures at 16.8 x 9.6 x 18.3 inches, within 30 minutes it reduced heavy smoke pollution in a 135-square-foot office by 99.6%.

Levoit Classic 300S Humidifier (Gray) Deal price: $68; street price: $75
Quiet, durable, and easy to clean, the Wi-Fi-enabled Levoit Classic 300S is the first ultrasonic humidifier we've tried that reliably does its job without over-humidifying a space. This is only the second deal we've seen for our top humidifier pick, and at $68 for the gray color it's down to just a few bucks shy of the lowest price we've seen.

Oral-B Kids Electric Toothbrush Deal price: $20 with store pickup; street price: $30
Although electric toothbrushes aren’t guaranteed to eliminate cavities, experts say they can make it easier for some kids to achieve good brushing habits. If your child doesn’t like the sensations produced by a vibrating toothbrush, we've found the rotating Oral-B Kids is an appropriately sized choice that spins instead of vibrates, though it is noisier. This brush is a bit larger than the Quip, but our kid testers found it easy to operate. It recharges by plugging into a base, and the replacement heads are among the more affordable of the brushes we tested. Down to $20 from $30, this is a new low price for the Oral-B Kids Toothbrush, but you'll have to opt for store pickup or make a combined order of $35 or more to avoid shipping costs.

Super Mario Odyssey (Physical Edition) Deal price: $38; street price: $60
Chock-full of nostalgia and thoughtfully-designed worlds, Super Mario Odyssey is another great platformer featuring everyone's favorite Italian plumber. Whether you're interested in uncovering all the game's hidden secrets or hoping to set a new world record, this title is sure to please. Nintendo games often hold to their original price, even years after release, so this deal is a nice chance to save on a staff favorite.

Skullcandy Sesh Evo Wireless Earbuds Deal price: $30; street price: $45
Tangled wires, obtrusive cords, and limited range can be extremely frustrating to deal with, but a nice pair of true wireless earbuds can solve all of those issues. Back down to $30 for multiple colorways, this is a solid deal on our former budget pick for the best wireless Bluetooth earbuds. We still speak well of the Skullcandy Sesh Evo in the competition section of our guide. These earbuds provide a fun, bass-forward sound, a comfortable fit, water resistance (with an IP55 rating), and easy-to-use controls.

Fujifilm Instax Link Wide Wireless Photo Printer Deal price: $130; street price: $150
Great for parties or picnics, a portable instant photo printer lets you snap and print fun memories anywhere you like. If you're after a classic Polaroid look, the Fujifilm Instax Link Wide prints 3.4-by-4.3-inch photographs with a 2.4-by-3.9-inch image area and a white border. We found the mobile app easy to set up and use, while the printer itself is small enough to toss in a bag and carry around. It's also down to the lowest price we've seen.
