Amazon Prime Day 2018: Here are the best tech deals

Amazon Prime Day has begun. Assuming the online giant's website hasn't crashed—it went down promptly at noon on July 16—there are a lot of really good deals to be had. And they'll last for a full 36 hours, giving you plenty of time to ponder whether the Essential Phone is worth $250 (hint: it is).

Amazon is offering deals for all types of interests, whether you want something for the home or something for the outdoors. In this post, we'll round up some of the best tech deals we could find, like the aforementioned Essential Phone deal. Amazon-made products, such as the Echo Spot, are also on sale.

We'll try to keep this post as current as possible over the next 36 hours. As a reminder, Prime Day ends at 11:59 PT on July 17.
