Save on everything students need
Although most official back-to-school sales don’t go live until August, Prime Day is an excellent opportunity to take advantage of great discounts.
The most popular categories for deep discounts include electronics and gadgets, backpacks and organizational supplies, school supplies, clothing and footwear and dorm room essentials. We’ve spotted discounts on our favorite brands, plus plenty of trendy products for students.
We love these sleek, stylish headphones, which have memory foam air cushions that make your ears feel like they’re surrounded by clouds. They also provide crisp, high-fidelity audio and active noise cancellation for a truly immersive listening experience.
The MacBook Air offers elite performance in a lightweight package, as its frame is one of the most compact among all laptops. It’s powered by an advanced M3 chip, and it has a crisp 15-inch Retina display. Plus, the front-facing camera renders visuals in a 1080p resolution, making it suitable for conference calls, and the four built-in speakers support Spatial Audio, delivering an immersive listening experience.
Electronics are excellent for entertainment, but they’re also terrific for students as they allow them to surf the web for research, take notes and create various projects. On Prime Day, expect to see excellent discounts on laptops, tablets, smartphones and other neat gadgets.
Acer Chromebook Plus 514 Laptop 25% OFF
This Chromebook might be basic and affordable, but it’s speedy and lightweight, making it ideal for schoolwork. Thanks to the 12-hour battery life, it’ll keep going all day, for notetaking, homework and more.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ boasts a powerful chipset that delivers fast performance and features a crisp 11-inch display that’s excellent for taking notes, working on projects or having some fun, like streaming movies. You can see and use multiple apps simultaneously for increased productivity, and it offers up to 1TB of expandable storage.
With a 14-inch screen, this Chromebook is a compact choice for toting around school. The 180-degree hinge lets users lay the screen flat for easier sharing and collaboration.
This Chromebook’s powerful processor makes light work of any programs users might need at school or at home. The 15.6-inch screen is clear and vibrant and the battery lasts for up to 10 hours.
Most things are done online, but any student likely has to commute to school now and then, if not every day. That’s why it’s a good idea to shop for a new backpack that can accommodate all school essentials, as well as other organizational supplies.
Matein Travel Laptop Backpack 45% OFF
This travel backpack can accommodate laptops with screen sizes up to 15.6 inches in width and has several compartments for storing cables, accessories, personal documents and smartphones. The USB charging port allows you to power your devices while on the go with an external power bank.
Staying organized and on top of assignments and projects is essential to succeeding in school, but forgetting things is a possibility from time to time. However, with this undated planner, you can log your upcoming tasks and assignments well in advance so you don’t miss anything and stay aware of what needs to be done. It’s a 52-week planner with thick pages that are easy to write on.
This drawstring backpack is a great choice for holding gym gear or for kids who don’t need to carry much to school. The mesh side pockets and zippered front pockets help with organization.
Thanks to its spacious interior, this is a perfect backpack for highschoolers or college students who don’t have the luxury of packing light. There are plenty of compartments to keep track of things, and the shoulder straps help distribute weight evenly and comfortably.
This sturdy backpack should last through multiple academic years. The interior is wipeable, so it stands up to spills. We love that the padded shoulder straps make all-day wear more comfortable for school kids.

These 3-by-3-inch notes have twice the adhesive power of standard sticky notes and come in several brightly colored pads, each containing 70 sheets.
Few things are as tedious as sharpening a pencil once it starts to get dull, which is why mechanical lead pencils are the better choice. The pack includes 40 No. 2 mechanical pencils, all with erasers at the tip and all compatible with 0.7-millimeter lead. They don’t smudge, and whenever the lead starts to get dull, all you need to do is click the top to draw out more.
Elmer’s CrayonPro Electric Crayon Sharpener 44% OFF
