Prime Day is almost over, which means there's not much time left to save big on some of your favorite items. Luckily, there are still some solid deals I'd recommend, including some on Surface devices. And if you're interested in finding more, check out our picks for the top Prime Day laptop deals and PC part deals for more from the rest of the Windows Central crew.
Dual-screen phone
Surface Duo
Top pick
The Surface Duo is not the best phone out there, but considering it launched at $1,400, the fact you can get it right now for $645 is a stellar deal. Yes, it's buggy. Yes, the camera is terrible. But this has been my main phone since September 2020, and I've loved every second of it.
Mini PC
Surface Go 2
My all-time favorite Surface PC is the Surface Go 2. I don't know what it is, but there's something about this little PC that's so charming and mighty. It has a great 10.5-inch display, Windows Hello IR, an optional Type Cover accessory, and support for the Surface Pen and LTE! Seriously, what's not to love?
In-ear audio
Surface Earbuds
I use the Surface Earbuds almost every day, for listening to music and podcasts either at home or when out and about. They're not perfect, but I love how comfortable these are compared to other in-ear earbuds on the market. You can barely even feel them! Audio quality is fine, but I definitely think they look the best out of all the earbuds on the market.
Portable storage
Seagate Barracuda
In need of some fast portable SSD storage? The Seagate Barracuda is a great buy, offering up to 1TB storage. It uses a USB-C interface, with read and write speeds of up to 540MB/s. I've been using one of these for a while, and have had zero complaints.
Flagship surface
Surface Pro 7
If the Surface Go 2 is a little too small for you, the Surface Pro 7 is also on sale right now. Featuring an Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM, and 128GB storage with a 12.3-inch PixelSense display, this is in every way an upgrade over the Surface Go 2. But it's also more expensive (though not as expensive as it usually is!).
Over-ear gaming
Xbox Stereo Headset
Before the Xbox Wireless Headset, the Xbox Stereo Headset was the headphones I wore whenever I'd game on my Xbox, and therefore I recommend them wholeheartedly. They're not the best sounding in the world, but they're certainly not terrible either. I've never had issues or complaints about these.
Comfortable mouse
Surface Precision Mouse
My go-to mouse of choice has been the Surface Precision Mouse for as long as it's been on the market. It's super comfortable and configurable with Microsoft's own Keyboard and Mouse Center app, which lets you customize what each of the buttons do. It's 25% off right now!
Prime Day
Hopefully my list of product recommendations shined a light on one or two things you might be interested in. I definitely recommend the Surface Pro 7, and the Surface Precision Mouse. But everything on this list is a great get at the prices they're available at. Good luck! Make sure you check out our other Amazon Prime Day roundups.
