Amazon’s Prime Day 2025 event set a new benchmark outside<\/em> of the popular marketplace.<\/p>\n

Amazon was humming during the July 8-11 Prime Day sale. The company reported record revenue, and according to Adobe Analytics<\/a>, Prime Day is now an ecommerce industry-wide sales initiative akin to Black Friday and Cyber Monday.<\/p>\n

Not Just Amazon<\/h3>\n

U.S. online retailers generated at least $24.1 billion in sales during this year’s Prime Day period, up 30% from 2024, again according to Adobe, which tracked more than 1 trillion visits to merchant websites and 100 million SKUs \u2014 all outside of Amazon.<\/p>\n

Adobe also reported that, for the first time, revenue from mobile devices surpassed desktops during a Prime Day event.<\/p>\n

Smartphone shoppers spent at least $12.8 billion, or 53.2% of the total.<\/p>\n

That percentage suggests that mobile is the primary driver of ecommerce sales, with broad implications for how merchants design shopping experiences, promote products, and manage operations.<\/p>\n

Hence the most important Prime Day takeaway may not be total revenue but rather the device.<\/p>\n
