  • There are plenty of health essentials on sale at deep discounts for Prime Day 2020, but we were disappointed yesterday when one of our favorites didn’t go on sale.
  • Thankfully, a deep Prime Day discount has finally arrived for the “iPhone of thermometers,” and two other popular iHealth devices are discounted as well.
  • Visit Amazon’s Prime Day 2020 hub to see all the latest deals, and be sure to check out BGR’s Prime Day deals roundup to see the very best bargains available right now.

Apple is perhaps best-known for making best-selling devices like iPhones and Mac computers, but it has definitely expanded its reach over the past decade or so. And while Apple is in the health market now thanks to the incredible success of the Apple Watch, that’s as far as Apple has gotten at this point.

If Apple ever did decide to make a forehead thermometer, tons of people out there think it would look and function just like the iHealth No-Touch Forehead Thermometer. That’s why so many of our readers have referred to it as the “iPhone of forehead thermometers.” It’s sleek and simple, yet undeniably elegant. That’s quite a design achievement for something like a thermometer. It’s also remarkably easy to use — just hold it an inch or two from your forehead or your child’s forehead and press the button. In less than one second, it’ll vibrate and display a temperature reading on the hidden screen.

The iHealth No-Touch Forehead Thermometer retails for $60, but it’s on sale right now at Amazon for $35. If you’re a Prime member, however, you get to take advantage of a special Prime Day discount and get it for just $24.49! That’s the lowest price of 2020, but this Prime Day discount will disappear at the end of the day on Wednesday.

Also of note, two more iHealth products have deep Prime Day discounts today. The iHealth PT2L Forehead Thermometer is on sale for just $14.99 instead of $25, and the $70 iHealth Air Wireless Fingertip Pulse Oximeter that can warn you of a possible coronavirus infection is down to $37.98. Healthy blood oxygen saturation levels should be between 94% and 100%, and the Mayo Clinic says anything under 90% is considered unhealthy so you should call your doctor.

Finally, you can also pick up the $100 Withings Thermo Smart Temporal Thermometer for $79.95 for Prime Day.
