Amazon Prime Day 2024: Early Deals and Editor's Choice Picks

Best Early Amazon Prime Day Deals on Samsung Tablets, TVs, Soundbars, and More

I have been a writer since 2006 when I covered various domains for local publications. In 2012, I started covering technology broadly and I've written thousands of articles since then. I've written social media and cybersecurity news, software and hardware reviews, streaming guides, how-tos, tech deals, and more. I have bylines in numerous publications, including MakeUseOf, Pocket-Lint, Android Police, How to Geek, XDA, Softpedia, as well as here at PCMag. When I'm not working, I like to spend time with my family, read, game, paint, listen to music, and run around after our many pets asking what it is they're chewing on this time. Samsung is one of the biggest brands in the world, delivering quality products, from TVs to smartphones, from hard drives to smartwatches, and so on.
