The best Prime Day deals 2022

(Amazon)

When it comes to savings on Apple products, Prime Day is the perfect time to upgrade your tech. If it’s earbuds you’re after, you can currently save £6 0on the Apple AirPods pro. In our review, it was noted that they are a “high-end pair of earphones that are difficult to find much fault in”, with our tester adding that if you’re a “member of the iOS family, the AirPods pro are the best in-ear earphones you can get on the market”.

Amazon Echo dot, 4th generation: Was £49.99, now £19.99, Amazon.co.uk

(Amazon)

This deal sees the current-generation Echo dot smart speaker reduced by an impressive 60 per cent. As with all Echo products, the Echo dot features the Alexa voice assistant, which can be used to play music, set timers, control smart home devices and much more besides. This offer includes all three colour options for the Echo dot, which are white, grey and blue. The Echo dot was included in our round-up of the best smart speakers, with our reviewer saying: “If you’re an Alexa user, or dipping your toe into the world of smart speakers, the echo dot is a great choice for a non-invasive speaker that produces great sound and slots nicely into the Amazon ecosystem.”

Simba hybrid mattress, king: Was £1,149, now £631.95, Amazon.co.uk

(Simba)

You can sleep easy this Prime Day with 45 per cent off Simba’s bestselling hybrid mattress. In our review of the bed-in-a-box, our tester said it “​​gives an instant and cloud-like balance of comfort and support right up to the edges.” With five layers including Simba’s advanced Simbatex foam, they said that the “sinkage is spot on” while the breathable design also meant they didn’t overheat at night. Recommending it for medium firmness fans, side and front sleepers and back pain sufferers, they said that it’s “definitely up there with our favourite hybrids”.

Shark cordless stick vacuum cleaner IZ201UKT: Was £349.99, now £229, Amazon.co.uk

(Amazon)

If you’re looking to cut ties with cumbersome wires, you’ve got to try cordless. Having tested a very similar version in our best cordless vacuum cleaners – the only difference being the model we tested has a pet tool included – we were a sucker for the brand’s anti hair wrap technology which helps with tangle-free hoovering, while our tester was seriously impressed at the cleaner’s flexibility, making it ideal for tackling hard to reach spots.

Xbox series S, refurbished: Was £229.99, now £209.99, Amazon.co.uk

(Amazon)

The Xbox series S would typically set you back £249.99, and while this is a refurbished unit it will save you £40 off a brand new model. Refurbished consoles have been put through a rigorous certification process, tested to confirm it’s working properly, and inspected for hardware and cosmetic quality. Like the PS5 digital edition, the Series S does not have a disc drive, meaning all games and media must be purchased digitally in order to be used.

While its technical specs might not match the more expensive series X, you still get access to the same selection of games and it even utilises the same controller, helping it land a spot in our round-up of the best games consoles. It’s a perfect gaming machine for downloadable titles such as Rocket League and Fortnite, or if you already own a Playstation 5 and want to experience some of Microsoft’s exclusive titles, this is the most affordable point of entry.

Apple iPhone 13 mini, 128GB: Was £679, now £629, Amazon.co.uk

(Amazon)

The mini version of Apple’s latest non-pro iPhone 13 smartphone has just received a 7 per cent discount, saving you £50. It features a smaller 5.4in super retina XDR display, great for smaller hands, an advanced dual-camera system and runs on the company’s snappy A15 bionic chip. In our iPhone 13 mini review, our writer said that the iPhone 13 mini is “immaculately designed and built, offers real power and makes good photography easy. If you’re not a fan of bigger phones, the iPhone 13 mini is the most powerful compact phone around, from any manufacturer.” The discount here applies to all colour variations.

Microsoft Surface laptop 4: Was £999, now £799, Amazon.co.uk

(Amazon)

The Surface laptop 4 is a delight to work on, boasting a stylish design, premium finish and sharp display. It appeared in our round-up of the best laptops of 2022, where our reviewer was suitably impressed by its performance: “Whereas most other Windows laptops come preloaded with sketchy third-party apps and anti-virus bloatware, Microsoft’s Surface laptops are much closer to the Apple-style user experience. Clean, tidy, and simple to use.” If that doesn’t sway you, perhaps the £200 saving will.

(Google)

One of the best phones you can buy now has 25 per cent off in the Prime Day sale. The Google Pixel 6 is cheaper than it’s ever been, and is a streamlined, stylish and fast device powered by the tech giant’s custom-built Tensor chip. The chip enables all manner of clever machine-learning features – from intelligent battery management that dials down the power usage of the apps you’re not using on the fly, to Google’s remarkable photo-processing tools, which can edit out interlopers hanging around in the background of your otherwise perfect selfie. Google has made switching from an iPhone as simple as it can possibly be too – transferring your entire Apple existence over to your new phone takes just a few clicks.

Fitbit inspire 2 health and fitness tracker: Was £89.99, now £42.74, Amazon.co.uk

Take your fitness regime up a gear with this Fitbit tracker, which is currently reduced by a sizeable 50 per cent. The sleek-looking smartwatch is available in rose, white and black, and we particularly like this summery pink pastel shade. It comes with a free one-year Fitbit premium trial, so you can make the most of personalised stats, as well as keeping an eye on your heart rate, activity goals and sleep stages. A similar model was rated best overall in our round-up of the best fitness trackers with our tester praising the “lightweight, durable and sophisticated” piece of tech.

Asus vivobook 15 laptop: Was £599.99, now £299.99, Amazon.co.uk

(Amazon)

Asus makes superb mid-range laptops and this 15in vivobook is no exception. It’s a smart looking machine with a full HD screen that’s perfect for everyday professional tasks, and packs an Intel Core i5 processor with 16GB of RAM along with a 512GB SSD, giving users plenty of room for documents and applications and enough memory to handle everyday use. At 31 per cent off and a saving of £150 in total, it’s exceptionally good value for money if you’re looking for a reliable workhorse.

Lego 42125 technic Ferrari: Was £169.99, now £109.99, Amazon.co.uk

(Amazon)

Zooming into our edit of the best Lego sets for adults as the “best challenging build”, this technic Ferrari is now 35 per cent cheaper. Each part of the 1,677-piece build is designed to champion the seminal OG racer, from the back suspension and moving pistons in the engine to the moveable steering wheel, bonnet and doors. Our tester noted that these details particularly appealed to their teen testers, who “enjoyed customising the car exactly as they wanted and then used it once it was built.”

Olaplex hair perfector no.3 repairing treatment, 100ml: Was £28, now £13.46, Amazon.co.uk

(Amazon)

As the OG home hair treatment from Olaplex, this formula is a best seller and we can see why. In our review our tester found that after using the formula alongside the no.0 intensive bond building hair treatment (was £28, now £25.18, Amazon.co.uk), the formula “worked wonders” on their split ends and created noticeably shinier locks – the best results they’d seen from at-home hair treatment, so it’s safe to say we’re fans. And with 50 per cent off thanks to Amazon Prime Day’s sale, this is not a deal to be missed.

Foreo UFO mini smart mask treatment device: Was £115, now £50, Amazon.co.uk

(Amazon)

Here at IndyBest, we’re no stranger to Foreo – the beauty-tech brand featured in our best facial massage tools and we’ve raved about its cleansing brush too, with our tester dubbing it an “invaluable asset” to their skincare routine. So naturally we jumped at this 57 per cent saving on this smart device. It works by using heat to open your pores and helps the serum in the face mask work even harder, while the RGB LED light is said to tackle signs of tiredness and aging.

This compact box sits next to your TV and streams 4K content from services like Netflix, iPlayer, Disney+, YouTube and Amazon’s own Prime Video. As well as Ultra HD resolution, the Fire TV cube supports the Dolby Vision and HDR10+ video standards, plus Dolby Atmos audio, providing your TV and sound system can also handle it. The cube appeared in our round-up of the best TV streaming devices where our reviewer said, “There are eight microphones so you don’t need to use the remote to control it, just say, ‘Alexa, play Modern Love,’ for instance. You can also control compatible smart-home products by telling Alexa what to do, again using your voice.” With 50 per cent off, you’ll want to add it to your basket fast.

Google Pixel buds A-series: Was £99, now £69, Amazon.co.uk

(Amazon)

The price of these Google Pixel earbuds has plummeted to lower than its Black Friday price of £79. While a range of other retailers have price matched, if you want them tomorrow, we’d recommend buying them at Amazon with your Prime membership. “The A-series integrate seamlessly with Android devices, feature Google’s fast pair tech, plus it’s got that fancy real-time translation feature, and the Google Assistant is always at hand if you need something when the buds are in your ears,” our reviewer said.

Instant Pot vortex 4-in-1 air fryer: Was £99.99, now £59.99, Amazon.co.uk

(Amazon)

Want to cook healthier food in half the time? An air fryer is the answer and Instant Pot’s 4-in-1 model is a bestseller for good reason. In our review of the kitchen gizmo, our tester said: “It’s handy and does what it says it will. It’s also quiet and easy to clean, and performs a number of other functions which helps it earn its keep in your cupboards.” They were not only impressed with the flavour of the food they cooked, but also the texture and crispiness. Right now for Prime Day, there’s 40 per cent off – meaning there’s no better time to invest.

Philips lumea advanced IPL: Was £300, now £249.99 Amazon.co.uk

(Amazon)

Zapping its way into our best laser hair removal review, the Philips lumea essentially stops hair regrowth with soft pulses of light to the root. Our tester dubbed it the best device for fast results, saying: “It’s surprisingly lightweight and, despite being corded, being tethered doesn’t stop you reaching trickier areas, like the back of the legs.” It took just three treatments to see the density and thickness of hair reduce too, which was notably speedy.

Nespresso vertuo plus coffee machine: Was £199.99, now £60.99, Amazon.co.uk

(Amazon)

Catering for different cup sizes, whether you like an espresso or an americano, there’s no hanging about as this high-tech coffee machine heats up in around 40 seconds. Barcode technology offers adjustable brewing settings – meaning the individual brewing blend of each coffee pod is cleverly recognised by the machine – and the electronic open and close function automatically ejects capsules after use.

We featured a similar vertuo model in our best coffee pod machine round-up, which our reviewer described as “ridiculously easy to set up, operate and maintain” meaning this is a brand you can trust. You could even use the £139saved to stock up on a range of tasty compatible vertuo pods. Life is too short for bad coffee, after all.

Ninja BN495UK Auto-IQ stand food blender: Was £99.99, now £66, Amazon.co.uk

(Amazon)

Named best overall in our food blender round-up, this Ninja blender is now an impressive 34 per cent off on Amazon. “This is a brilliant blender which won’t just churn out your favourite smoothies, but a wide range of other drinks, too (we were particularly impressed with its ability to produce delicious milkshakes),” raved our tester. They also added that “the powerful 1,000W motor and precision-engineered blades result in some seriously quick blending, and made light work of items such as nuts and grains.”

(Amazon)

If you’re looking for a way to keep an eye on your four-legged friend while you’re out and about, this Furbo device took the top spot in our review of the best pet cameras. Our writer praised it for being a “neatly built machine with good design”. The lid releases dog treats, but it’s “secure enough to prevent canine interference but easy enough to be removed by humans”. It features an “effective 1080p HD camera and good two-way audio”, which “means you can see and hear clearly, even in darkened rooms, though night vision is monochrome only”. With a whopping £115 saving thanks to Prime Day, now’s the time to snap this up before it’s too late.

(Ring)

This wireless video doorbell features a 1080p Full HD camera and wifi for connecting to your router. When the doorbell is rung, your smartphone is alerted via the free Ring app, and you can then have a live video call with the visitor. The Ring also acts as a security camera, recording a portion of video when movement is detected, and there’s infrared technology for clear nighttime video when there’s no ambient light. The doorbell is powered by an included and removable rechargeable battery, and it works with Alexa too, so you can the assistant to show you who’s at the door. We named the Ring the “best for video quality” in our round-up of the best video doorbells of 2022, so it’s safe to say we’re big fans.

(Amazon)

Our reviewer was nothing short of praise for Gtech’s airram MK2 cordless vacuum when she put it to the test on her floors. “We were won over by the cordless vacuum’s performance – cleaning both carpets and hardwood flooring to a very high standard,” they said. Praising the LED lights along the front which helped them suck up otherwise missed dust and debris, they also loved the easily emptied and detachable bin – not to mention the lightweight stick that helped clean tricky-to-reach places. “Designed with a power brush head and AirLOC technology it’s also really powerful – not leaving anything behind as we picked up food, dirt and even cat hair from the floor.” Right now, you can save a sizeable 40 per cent for Prime Day.

When is Amazon Prime Day 2022 in the UK?

The online sale is already well underway – taking place from Tuesday 12 to Wednesday 13 July. Deals on big-ticket brands kicked off on 21 June, which is notably earlier than last year, where deals started trickling in around 10 days before.

Discounts on Amazon’s own devices started on 8 July, with savings of up to 60 per on select devices including the Echo dot (3rd and 4th gen), the Echo show 5 (2nd gen), Fire TV cube, Blink cameras, Ring home security and the Fire 7 kids pro tablet. Other Prime Day discounts include up to 30 per cent off video games, kitchen appliances, toys and sports accessories, with Oral-B toothbrushes also up to 70 per cent off.

Is Amazon hosting two Prime Day events this year?

Amazon is rumoured to be planning a second major sales event on the scale of Prime Day later this year. According to leaked internal messages seen by Business Insider, the retail giant is reportedly inviting third-party sellers to submit deals for a “Prime Fall Deal Event”. If the second sale goes ahead, it would be the first time Amazon has hosted two Prime Day-style events in a single year. Invited sellers suggest that the follow-up Prime Day appears to be scheduled for October.

What is Amazon Prime Day?

Amazon Prime Day is an annual, two-day sale event that sees the retailer reduce the price of thousands of products from big-name brands, including Apple, Samsung, KitchenAid, Shark, Philips, Bosch, Rimmel, Miele and so many more. This year’s event will see Amazon’s lowest prices ever on products from Sony and Bose.

The first of its kind took place in 2015 and lasted just 24 hours. But it wasn’t until 2019 that the event was extended to a full two days.

Just remember, in order to access the whopping discounts, you must have an Amazon Prime membership

Best Amazon Prime Day tips

Most importantly, we’ll be your savvy shopping experts during the event, highlighting the very best deals on everything from Apple Watches, Nintendo Switch consoles and earbuds to mattresses, air fryers and robot vacuum cleaners.

And our liveblog is on hand to provide you with a minute-by-minute update on all the latest news and intel.

Aside from our expert help, though, we’d recommend being as prepared as possible by adding the items you know you’re desperate for to your wishlist ahead of time, so you can check out with ease.

Similarly, it’s also worth downloading the Amazon app. You’ll find what the retailer calls “lightning deals”, which are whopping discounts that are active for a few hours at a time. You can also set up alerts so that you’re pinged when a discount goes live.

Amazon Prime Day vs Black Friday: Should you wait?

When it comes to sales events, Black Friday and Amazon Prime Day are the biggest and the best. But of course, there are differences between the two that might influence when you choose to shop.

One of the main differences is that during Black Friday you’ll see thousands of retailers partaking and offering big discounts across the board, so in theory, you have more choice.

This is in stark contrast to Prime Day, where the sale is limited (albeit not so much considering the sheer number of products the retailer stocks) to just the items on Amazon’s website. That being said, the perk of Prime Day is that the deals are all in one place, making it far easier to navigate than the beast that is Black Friday. And the discounts are exclusively for those with a Prime membership, so you may have more of a chance of snapping up an absolute bargain because there’s less competition.

On Prime Day, the main deals you’ll see are across Amazon’s tech and own-brand devices, with discounts up to 50 per cent off in previous years, so it’s the perfect time to benefit from huge savings.

To answer the question of whether you should wait, with Amazon’s previous track record in mind, you’ll get very similar, if not the same, deals, so we’d suggest shopping to your heart’s content on Prime Day.

How to sign up for Amazon Prime

As we’ve noted, the deals on Prime Day are exclusively for those with an Amazon Prime membership. It costs £7.99 a month or £79 for a year. Signing up couldn’t be easier, all you need to do is go to the Amazon Prime landing page and enter your details.

If you don’t want to pay the monthly fee, you can get a 30-day free trial, which will also gain you access to the sale. While you won’t be charged, you will need to input your card details when signing up, as Amazon automatically converts you to a paid membership after 30 days.

Is Amazon Prime worth it?

Whether a subscription service is worth it is, of course, down to personal preference. But, you do get a whole host of perks from being an Amazon Prime member.

You’ll not only benefit from the Prime Day deals, but you will also have free next-day or same-day delivery on items, as well as access to thousands of free e-books and access to Prime Video and Amazon Music services.

All this for just £7.99 a month is pretty good going, so we’d recommend signing up.
