By HTB Deals Desk · Updated September 15, 2026 · 8 min read
Amazon officially confirmed Prime Big Deal Days 2026 for October 6-7: 48 hours, 35+ categories, and more than one million items expected at their lowest prices of the year so far. For anyone shopping robot vacuums or security cameras, this is the single biggest discount window between now and Black Friday — and the smartest play is to know the prices before the deals go live. Here is our expectation guide.
What Amazon has confirmed
- Dates: October 6-7, 2026, starting 12:01 a.m. PDT — 48 hours, Prime members only.
- Scale: deals across 35+ categories; over 1 million items expected at year-low prices.
- New drops: fresh deal drops three times a day through “Today’s Big Deals.”
- Worth noting: early deals are already live for Prime members ahead of the event.
Robot vacuums: what to expect
Flagship tier — wait for these (Oct 6-7)
This is the tier that drops hardest during the event. Based on the June Prime Day pattern and current price history, expect:
- Roborock Qrevo Curv / Master: typically $150-250 off flagship prices during event windows; the Curv has historically touched $899-$949.
- Dreame X40 Ultra class: flagship models with full docks routinely hit 25-35 percent off in October events.
- Roomba Combo j9+ / j-series: iRobot bundles the Auto-Fill dock during events — the j9+ combo has dropped to $799-$899 before.
Typical street prices: Curv $1,049-$1,299 (event low ~$949); j9+ combo $1,099 (event low ~$849).
Mid-range tier — the sweet spot of the event
- eufy X10 Pro Omni: expect $549 or better; a $499 flash price is a genuine grab-it.
- Roborock Qrevo S / Q7 Max: mid-line models usually land 30-40 percent off during Prime events.
Budget tier — buy before or during, the floor is the floor
- Roborock Q5 Pro+ / Q5+: already near year lows around $229-$249; event prices rarely beat this by much.
- Roomba 105x / 600-series: typically $130-$180 during events.

Security cameras: what to expect
- Tapo C425 (wire-free 2K): the 2-pack near $99-$109 is the classic event price; single units go lower too.
- Reolink Argus 4 Pro: expect $139-$159 event lows on the 4K wire-free flagship.
- eufy Indoor Cam S350 / eufyCam S3 Pro: eufy runs aggressive camera bundles during Prime events — camera + HomeBase bundles are where the real savings hide.
- Arlo Essential Indoor / Outdoor: 20-30 percent off typical; the subscription angle stays the same.

Bottom line
Prime Big Deal Days on Oct 6-7 is the best window of the fall for robot vacuums and security cameras. Flagship robots and dock bundles get their deepest cuts; budget items stay near their floors.
