Best Tech Deals 2019 (June 13)

July is still a few weeks away, but Amazon Prime Day is slowly starting to rear its head. Generally, we don't see many component deals on Prime Day. However, if you're looking to buy Amazon hardware, a new laptop, or upgrade to a 4K TV, chances are high you'll score some good deals on Prime Day.

But first, Amazon is celebrating Father's Day with discounts on some if its most popular gear. Keep in mind many of these devices will be from $5 to $40 cheaper on Amazon Prime Day. Nevertheless, if you need a gift for dad now, these are still solid price cuts.

Meanwhile, here's a deal you're not likely to see on Prime Day. Dell has its Alienware m15 Gaming Laptop on sale for $1,299.99 via coupon code "AW630AFF". That's $630 off and the biggest dollar-off discount we've seen for this machine. It features a 15.6-inch 1080p 144Hz IPS LCD, Core i7-8750H six-core processor, 16GB of RAM, 512GB SSD, and GTX 1660 Ti graphics. This machine was on sale at the same price last month, but this configuration subs the 2 year old GTX 1060 with a newer GTX 1660 Ti card. The deal is valid through July 7 at 8am ET.
