Christmas is only 78 days away. We still found over 20 great Prime Day gift deals.

I have a confession: I love doing most of my Christmas shopping before the Halloween decorations even go on sale in my neighborhood.

It sounds a bit exaggerated, but hear me out: The holiday season is chaotic enough without the added stress of searching for last-minute gifts. And while you might be tempted to dismiss it as just another manufactured deals event, Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days (or Fall Prime Day as it's commonly known) is actually a good time to get started.

In past years, we've seen plenty of things on sale during fall Prime Day that make great gifts, whether you're looking for your dad, your partner, or your friend who seems to have everything.

You can also rest assured that everything you see here has been thoroughly researched and tested by Wirecutter journalists, so you'll enjoy it for years to come. Plus, our deals team has checked the price against their database to ensure it's a real deal – and finding the ideal gift is even more rewarding when you can snag it at a discount.

Here are the best Prime Day deals we found on Wirecutter-approved gifts for the important people in your life. Not only will you save money, you'll also keep your sanity – and that's a gift to yourself too.
