As expected, worldwide sales of Amazon’s Fire TV Stick streaming media device and Echo Dot wireless smart speaker topped the e-commerce behemoth’s annual 36-hour Prime Day sales event that ended July 17 at 11;59 p.m. PT.
The company said more than 5 million Fire TV Sticks were sold, while Prime Day was the biggest sales event for the Echo product line.
The Toshiba 4K Ultra HD Fire TV Edition (50-inch) and Toshiba 4K Ultra HD Fire TV Edition (43-inch) emerged as Amazon’s best-selling TV deals in the company’s history – selling more than six times as many combined TVs compared to last year’s record-setting Fire TV Edition.
“Extending Prime Day to a day and a half this year allowed us to further reward members with … deals, access to exclusive new products and … experiences that highlight the many benefits of a Prime membership,” Jeff Wilke, CEO worldwide consumer, Amazon, said in a statement.
Prime members across 17 countries purchased more than 100 million products, with Whole Foods Market customers in the United States offered week-long savings.
Members purchased more than five million items in each of the following categories: toys, beauty products, PCs and computer accessories, apparel and kitchen products.
