In the highly oversaturated world of e-commerce, Amazon consistently comes out on top — not just because of its convenience, but largely due to its array of deals. If you’re a sucker for a sweet discount, we’ve scoured the lengthy list of daily deals at the mega-retailer and handpicked some of the most impressive ones we could find. While it may not be a major shopping holiday, there are plenty of price drops on big-name products, including the Apple Watch, The Frame TV, and Echo Buds.
Here are the best Amazon deals of the day for April 17. And don’t miss out on our picks from April 15 and April 16 — many of those deals are still live.
Our top pick
If you’ve had the Apple Watch Series 9 on your wishlist since its debut, your patience has been rewarded with an all-time low discount. Despite its rocky start to the year (Apple removed the blood oxygen sensor from its watches due to a patent dispute), the Series 9 is alive and thriving. It comes with a few fancy new features like Double Tap and a 2,000-nit display, which makes it more readable in sunlight (one of Mashable Senior Editor Stan Schroeder’s favorite features). The 41mm version with GPS and cellular connectivity is typically $699, but you can save 38% as of April 17 and snag it for just $433.30.
Thanks to Samsung’s The Frame TVs, gone are the days of staring at a boring black rectangle on your wall when your TV is switched off. These TVs feature a unique ambient “Art Mode” that displays paintings and photos when the QLED screen is not in use. Many images come pre-loaded onto the TV, but you can also upload your own or subscribe to Samsung’s Art Store for more options. The 75-inch version is down to an all-time low price of $1,895 as of April 17 — that’s 37% off its usual cost.
If you’re looking to add a second set of eyes outside of your home, the Blink Outdoor 4 Floodlight Camera lets you see what’s happening in crisp HD at any time of day. It features 700 lumens of motion-triggered illumination and two-way audio, plus advanced motion detection via the Blink subscription plan. At 40% off, it’s back down to its all-time low price of $77.99 (reg. $129.98).
Some of our favorite wireless earbuds, the second-generation Echo Buds, are on sale at Amazon for just $54.99 as of April 17. While that’s not the lowest price we’ve seen — that honor goes to the $49.99 deal from March 2022 — it’s still an incredible deal on a pair of noise-canceling earbuds. Compared to the first-generation duds, Amazon’s second iteration “deliver good sound quality, effective ANC, and a slimmed down build.” Mashable’s Alex Perry was impressed with them upon testing, calling them “a steal for anyone who wants to dip their toes into the world of ANC without setting their wallet on fire.”

If you’re looking to upgrade our work-from-home setup without breaking the bank, the M2-equipped Mac Mini is a solid place to start. The ultra-portable desktop computer offers a zippy performance, support for up to two displays, upgraded graphics from its predecessor, and two Thunderbolt 4 ports for advanced connectivity. Better yet, it’s just $20 shy of its all-time low price as of April 17. Snag it on sale for just $499 at Amazon.
