There’s a new category taking over Amazon’s annual shopping extravaganza: exoskeletons.

These futuristic-looking wearable devices are designed to ease your load and support your performance, with tailored assistance for walking, running, climbing, cycling and more. Users rave that they’re a “glimpse into the future” — and after getting the chance to try one myself, I have to agree.

I took one for a spin in Times Square and can confirm they’re about as astonishing as they look. I felt stronger, faster and somehow even lighter — and that’s only scratching the surface of what these devices could offer on tougher outdoor terrain (think high-altitude hikes or even search-and-rescue situations).

Because these machines are still relatively new to the market, it’s rare to find them on sale. But during Amazon Prime Day, which runs from October 6 to 7, shoppers can save up to $300 on these sci-fi-looking devices that have generated plenty of buzz online.

Because these machines are still relatively new to the market, it’s rare to find them on sale. But from Amazon Prime Day (Oct. 6 through Oct. 7) through Oct. 12, shoppers can save up to $300 on these sci-fi-looking devices that have generated plenty of buzz online.

For Prime Day, leading robotics company Hypershell is offering deep discounts across its three X Series models: the popular Hypershell X Pro S Exoskeleton, the Hypershell X Max S Exoskeleton, and the Hypershell X Ultra S Exoskeleton, designed for more demanding adventures.

And, in case you’re still wondering how they work — Hypershell exoskeletons use electronic-assist technology, smart sensors and artificial intelligence to respond to your body’s movements and deliver tailored support. The devices sync up with the Hypershell app, so you can control the modes and customize the level of support from your smartphone.

According to Hypershell’s testing, exoskeletons can reduce physical exertion by up to 39% and average heart rate by up to 42% — but specific features vary by model. Below, explore three designs built to deliver the level of support you need.

If you’re looking for a little more support while taking on everyday endeavors — from errands to outdoor adventures — the versatile Hypershell X Pro S Walking Exoskeleton is a great starting point. And now, it’s on sale for just under $850 for Prime Day.

The machine delivers 800W of power and offers a 17.5-kilometer range, designed to reduce physical effort by up to 30% and average heart rate by up to 42%. It boasts a 0.31-second response time and 97.5% gait synchronization. And at just 5.7 pounds, it won’t weigh you down, either.

Customers say the intuitive design and smart features make it simple to use, and they can feel the difference in their physical performance.

“The straps and padding are comfortable, and the app makes it easy to adjust the support level. Battery life has been good for my use, and the whole device feels well built,” one customer said. “Overall, it really helps reduce leg fatigue and makes walking feel easier.”

Users can choose from 10 modes designed for daily walking, stairs, slopes, parks, commuting, cycling and light outdoor activities.

For those looking for added support and longer-range mobility, Hypershell also offers the X Max S Exoskeleton. This upgraded 1000W model is designed with hikers and trail runners in mind, delivering a powerful boost with a longer range on a single charge (about 30 kilometers of range on a single battery).

In controlled testing, it was shown to reduce physical exertion by up to 39% and average heart rate by up to 42%, helping users conserve energy on steep climbs, long trails and the journey back.

“When my legs start getting tired or feeling weaker, the assistance makes it feel like I have more range left in me,” one reviewer said. “The battery has also impressed me. It provides plenty of power and lasts a long time between charges based on my use.”

The durable yet comfortable build is another selling point. This model features a rugged construction made from carbon fiber and aluminum alloy, which is IP54-rated for water and dust resistance. And its upgraded soft-wearing system stays securely in place while allowing for natural leg movement.

This lightweight powerhouse is an ideal choice for hardcore adventurers who want to go the extra mile without constantly having to think about recharging.

The Hypershell X Ultra S Exoskeleton is the brand’s ultimate model for extreme performance, built for demanding adventures, load-bearing tasks and even unpredictable weather. It can also go the distance; with a 1,000W output and dual-battery capacity, it delivers up to 60 kilometers of total range.

In controlled testing, the X Ultra S reduced physical exertion by up to 39% and average heart rate by up to 42%. And many reviewers say they were shocked by how efficient it was during physical challenges.

“I was impressed with what the Ultra S did for me during that hike,” one user reported. “I felt like the whole hike was a breeze and I had energy to spare. My stride was strong, and if I sped up or slowed down a bit, the movement was fluid and responsive. After about 10 minutes, I completely forgot about monitoring how it was reacting — it was that easy…”

Despite its rugged capabilities, the Ultra S weighs just 5.5 pounds, making it lighter than the other models and a breeze to wear. It features 12 modes designed for different terrains, including gravel, dunes, snow and more. Cold-resistant batteries mean it can even take on freezing temps.

The Ultra S goes beyond everyday use. This is the model that can handle rugged wilderness and demanding applications like search-and-rescue and ambitious hikes. It’s an investment, but Prime Day presents a rare opportunity to grab it on sale for $300 off.
