Ring Cameras
It’s official: There are two Prime Day sales this year. Just three months after the July Prime Day, Amazon is holding a special October Prime Day event, dubbed the Prime Day Early Access Sale from October 11 to 12. And since the sale has already begun, we’ve already seen a lot of great deals for Prime members.
A huge draw of these Amazon Prime-exclusive events is the multitude of deep discounts on home security products — particularly security cameras — from all the best brands. That includes everything from the Arlo Ultra battery-powered 4K camera to Nest’s uber smart lineup of Nest Cams. Like we said, you don’t want to miss it.
Canary Pro Camera
But by and large, the best savings you’ll find on security cameras on Prime Day will be among Amazon-owned products. Those, you might be aware, include Ring’s versatile cameras and systems, as well as Blink, a suite of affordable wire-free cams.
What exactly can you expect from these brands on this year’s second Prime Day? Well, deals, and lots of them. Ring and Blink already set the bar with early deals for ealy takers, but we’re certain a lot more offers will be revealed when Prime Day October starts tonight at midnight.

Final Thoughts: Security Cameras on Prime Day October 2023
The Ring Floodlight Cam
Whether you’re buying for yourself or a loved one, the Prime Day Early Access Sale presents a great opportunity to save big bucks on your security camera purchases. We don’t always get two Prime Days in a year — in fact, this is the first time this is happening — so it’s something we shouldn’t miss.
That said, if you missed out on this sale, don’t despair; it won’t be the last sale of the year. We still have Black Friday and Cyber Monday in November, as well as holiday sales in December and January.
