Prime Day weekend is here, and the official sale is tomorrow as the Prime Day 2021 dates are set for June 21 and June 22. With it will come plenty of Prime Day deals to tempt you into a purchase or two, so we’re looking at the best Prime Day Microsoft Surface sales that we’re expecting to see during Amazon’s massive sales event (as well as getting you up to speed on the discounts you can shop right now). If you’re interested in buying one of the best Windows machines on the market right now, then keep reading to see what Prime Day Microsoft Surface deals we’re looking forward to and whether Prime Day is really the best time to buy.
Amazon loves to discount popular technology during Prime Day so we’re expecting to see some great Prime Day Microsoft Surface sales going on. That will almost certainly include the likes of the Microsoft Surface Go range as well as the Microsoft Surface Pro 7 (particularly bundle deals that include the Type Cover keyboard which we strongly recommend) and the Microsoft Surface Laptop 3.
Whether we’ll see discounts on the latest Microsoft Surface Laptop 4 is less certain. It’s definitely possible but if it happens, it’ll probably be a fairly modest price cut. Expect the big savings to come from last year’s models like the Microsoft Surface Laptop 3 which may be slightly older technology but will still be highly capable.
Last year was a great time to save if you were able to shop the Prime Day Microsoft Surface sales. We saw discounts of up to 35% off of some of the Microsoft Surface range, with $450 off the Microsoft Surface Laptop 2 and up to $175 off the Microsoft Surface Pro 7. Even the original Microsoft Surface Book enjoyed a hefty discount which was great for those on a budget and happy to buy older technology.
Prime Day is generally one of the best sales events for any kind of technology. Often, it manages to be as well priced as the likes of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, with the added benefit that you get to enjoy your shiny new piece of tech a few months early, so the 2021 Prime Day Microsoft Surface sales are definitely worth checking out.
It’s a good idea to have a think beforehand about what your budget is, though. With a growing number of different Microsoft Surface devices out there, you can spend a little or a lot on one so it’s vital that you know what you can afford and what you’re looking for before you jump in.

Did you think hitting delete on your AI chatbot conversation actually makes it disappear? Georgia Tech researchers just proved that's not entirely true. They have built a forensic tool called ORISA that can dig deleted conversations from your phone and even rebuild them into a working chatbot session you can keep talking to.
How can ORISA bring deleted AI conversations back?
Touchscreen laptops have been around for years. You can get them in all sizes and shapes. Just not from Apple. For years, the Cupertino giant has treated the idea of a touchscreen MacBook the way I treat a meeting that could have been an email: with open contempt. However, Wednesday looks like the day the company could finally change its mind.
The latest Apple invite puts the “Pro and Tell” showcase in Los Angeles at 10 a.m. PT (1 p.m. ET) on October 28, 2026. Instead of a regular live-streamed keynote, it is an invitation-only, hands-on event for a handful of press and creators (similar to what the company did for the MacBook Neo earlier this year).
Two residents of Chicago have filed a lawsuit in the US over claims that robots run by Coco Robotics and Serve Robotics captured their facial and hand measurements without consent, bringing renewed attention to the food delivery robots. The cases raise a troubling question: If a robot delivers food to your door, can it also be gathering sensitive information about you?
According to a report by The Associated Press, the proposed class-action lawsuits were filed in Cook County on Oct. 9 and allege violations of Illinois’ Biometric Information Privacy Act. The complaints claim that the robots’ cameras and LiDAR sensors captured information on customers’ faces and hands as they approached the machines to pick up their orders. Both have denied the allegations.
