With Amazon Prime Day just around the corner, the company revealed on Thursday that its fall Devices and Services event will take place on September 20 at its second headquarters, known as HQ2, in Arlington, Virginia.
Amazon introduced several new devices, such as the Kindle Scribe, Halo Rise and the Eero PoE 6 router, at its 2022 event.
“Now that Amazon’s HQ2 is officially open, it only feels right to gather there in a few months to share a bit more of what we’ve been working on,” David Limp, Amazon’s senior vice president of devices and services, posted on Linkedin. “Mark your calendar for 9/20 for some news from us!”
The company announced the construction of HQ2 in 2019, but reports indicated that the facility’s completion would take until 2025. Amazon defied that expectation and opened HQ2 on June 15, though without the original ambitious swirl design. The campus is designed to demonstrate the potential of sustainable construction and design, and benefit the local community.
Amazon announced Prime Day in late June. The annual shopping extravaganza for Amazon Prime members will see launches, offers, discounts, and more on a variety of products. The two-day event will kick off at midnight on July 15 and will run until July 16. You can find deals on smartphones, TVs, appliances, Amazon devices, and more.
