Amazon usually doesn't announce the official date of Amazon Prime Day 2018 until the very end of June – and holds off as long as possible to announce specific deals. However, based on Prime Day patterns from previous years, trends from the most recent Black Friday and Cyber Monday, and Amazon product news, shoppers can make predictions for this year's hot items.
Before jumping into the Prime Day hype, know the following pieces of information to make your shopping experience smoother and easier.
4K TVs with built-in Fire TV. TV deals are generally Black Friday's territory. However, Prime Day has a reputation for low TV prices as well. Pay particular attention to TV brands that have built-in Fire TV, which is Amazon's smart TV platform. These brands include Element and select Toshiba and Insignia models.
Fire TV Cube. This new product launched on June 21. It's a hands-free, Alexa-capable remote that allows you to control your TV with voice commands. It works with any IR-enabled TV. IR refers to infrared-blaster technology, which allows a TV to communicate with other devices. Many newer TVs from major brands are IR-enabled.
The Fire TV Cube's sticker price at launch was $119.99, but given its debut so close to Prime Day, a consumer can expect a promotional price drop. Or perhaps they'll see it bundled (for a combined steep discount) with another Amazon device.

Prime Day BasicsBefore jumping into the Prime Day hype, know the following pieces of information to make your shopping experience smoother and easier.
- Amazon Prime Day is for Prime members only. If you're not signed up for Prime, you'll need to do so to take advantage of the sales. If you've never had Prime before, you can sign up for a 30-day free trial.
- Many Prime Day deals are limited-time promos. Lightning deals may expire within hours, and some deals may run out of stock quickly.
- Plenty of other retailers will try to compete with Prime Day. And that's a good thing for your wallet. Thanks to Prime Day's success, rivals such as eBay, Overstock, Walmart and more have launched concurrent sales of their own during Prime Days past – and offered free shipping to compete with Prime's free two-day shipping. So before pouncing on a deal, run a quick price comparison.
