Prime Day 2026: suitcase, laptop, and robot for your new life in Colombia

Prime Day kicked off today and we chose three deals with a common thread: they help you get to Colombia, generate income from home, and maintain your home without wasting hours.

Prime Day 2026 starts today (running from June 23 to 26) and, among thousands of deals, it is easy to end up buying things you don't need. If you want the full picture—which brands are dropping in price and how to buy them from here—start with our Prime Day and Amazon brands guide for Colombia. This list is more focused: three purchases that really move the needle when you are building your life in the country.

We chose them with three moments in mind: luggage for arriving, equipment for working or studying , and technology for setting up your home. And if you are young and don't have Prime yet, first check out how to get several months of Prime for free if you are between 18 and 24 years old: it helps with shipping and getting the most out of these dates.

Summary of the 3 deals

1. Samsonite Freeform Set (carry-on + checked)

Best for: Those moving or traveling frequently between Colombia and abroad

Price range: mid-range with a strong discount on Prime Day

It is a two-piece set in rigid polypropylene: a carry-on suitcase and a large checked bag, both with four 360° double spinner wheels, integrated TSA combination lock, and a shell that expands when you need to pack that extra tamal of gifts. For someone setting up their life here, it is one of the few ways to start with durable, well-known brand luggage without buying suitcase by suitcase. The long warranty backing is reassuring when airport staff treats your suitcase like a soccer ball.

Weak point: A hard-shell set takes up fixed space at home when you aren't traveling; if you only take short trips, the carry-on alone is more than enough.

Note for Colombia: Due to its value, it falls into the range subject to VAT when imported; Amazon Global estimates that cost for you at checkout. Compare it with what an equivalent set costs here before deciding.

2. ASUS TUF Gaming F16 Laptop (2025)

Best for: Remote work, editing, online classes, and gaming

Price range: high-end investment, near its lowest price on Prime Day

It combines a 10-core Intel processor with a dedicated RTX 5050 graphics card, 16 GB of DDR5 RAM, and a 16-inch 165 Hz screen with good color coverage. Translated to real life: it handles video calls with many tabs open, photo and video editing, and current games without the machine struggling. The chassis passed military-grade durability tests (MIL-STD-810H), a plus when you have to carry it daily on the bus, motorcycle, or between cafes to work. It is a tool for generating income from home, not just a toy.

Weak point: The factory storage falls short if you handle heavy files: budget for a larger disk or an external SSD. And the battery of such a machine doesn't last long away from the plug.

Note for Colombia: It is a high-end device, so you will pay VAT and potential customs duties when importing it. Check the estimated final cost at checkout and compare it with the warranty and technical service you would have by buying it locally.

3. Dreame L40 Ultra Gen 2 Robot Vacuum and Mop

Best for: Hard floor apartments, pets, and little free time

Price range: mid-to-high range with one of the best discounts of the season

It vacuums and mops with very high suction power and adds an extendable side brush and mop that reach corners and edges where other robots leave lint. What really changes your day-to-day is the all-in-one base that empties itself: maintenance becomes almost zero. If you spend the day working and don't want to think about dust or pet hair on tile or porcelain floors—so common in apartments here—it is one of the purchases that gives you back the most free time.

Weak point: The base takes up a corner with a power outlet and it is a high-priced robot; in very small spaces or with thick rugs, it performs less than promised.

Note for Colombia: Due to its value, it is subject to VAT when imported. Confirm the voltage and plug type, and the availability of spare parts (bags, mops) for Colombia before ordering.

When it is better to buy locally or wait

If your budget is tight or you need the product now, it is almost always better to buy locally: you save on import VAT, waiting time, and warranty hassles. For clothing, cleaning products, or low-value items, the difference rarely justifies the shipping. And if you only travel one weekend a year, a single carry-on suitcase is more useful than a full set.

How to buy them from Colombia

Most of these products reach Colombia via Amazon Global: when paying, Amazon estimates taxes, duties, and delivery time for your address and charges them as a deposit. The other way is a virtual mailbox with a US address that forwards the package. Whichever it is, always check the estimated final cost before confirming.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is Prime Day 2026 and do I need to be a Prime member?

Prime Day 2026 runs from June 23 to 26, with some offers extending a few more days. Many sales are open to everyone, but the best ones require a Prime account. If you are between 18 and 24 years old, you can activate several months of Prime for free: we explain it in our Prime guide for young people.

Can I buy these products from Colombia?

Yes. The direct way is Amazon Global, which estimates taxes, duties, and delivery time to your address at the time of payment. The other is to use a virtual mailbox (a US address) and forward the package. In our Prime Day brand guide, we compare both options step by step.

Will I have to pay taxes when importing them?

There is a low threshold—around fifty—below which personal shipments are usually exempt from VAT. Above that, 19% VAT applies; and above the two-hundred threshold, customs duties may be added depending on the product and its origin (US-origin items usually have zero duty due to the FTA). The three products in this guide exceed that range, so count on the VAT; Amazon estimates it for you at checkout.

Does the ASUS TUF laptop work for work or just for gaming?

It works for both. The dedicated graphics card, 16 GB of RAM, and fast screen make it comfortable for photo and video editing, heavy multitasking, and long video calls, in addition to gaming. The only serious drawback is the base storage: if you work with large files, plan to expand it.

Does the Dreame robot work well in Colombian tile apartments?

That is exactly where it performs best: on hard floors like tile or porcelain, it vacuums and mops without problems, and the self-emptying base reduces maintenance to a minimum. In very small spaces or with thick rugs, it shines less. Confirm the voltage and availability of spare parts before ordering.

What if I prefer to buy locally or second-hand?

It is a very valid option: you save on import taxes and waiting times. In the Colombia Move marketplace, Colombians buy and sell electronics, household items, and much more between people. It is worth looking there before importing, especially for lower-value items.
