I was very impressed by the Netgem Pleio when it first arrived a couple of Christmases ago. The world's first Freely box not only gives you free streaming access to more than 70 major UK TV channels – including the BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and 5 – it is a fully-featured Android TV streamer, so can access 100s of apps too.

It's also been upgraded several times since then, so offers and even smoother, more content rich experience. And with its Amazon Prime Big Deal Days offer, the Pleio represents even better value for money than ever.

We've seen a few other Freely TV boxes since the Pleio launched, but it's still one of the very best. Indeed, the recently-released Vodafone TV uses the same Netgem platform, so you are getting a system that is rapidly growing and improving.

Capable of outputting 4K HDR (Dolby Vision) video over HDMI, as well as up to Dolby Atmos sound, the Pleio puck (as it's more accurately known), runs on the latest version of Android TV. That means you can download 100s of apps from the Google Play Store, including all of the major streaming services.

You also get 12-months of Pleio Extra – Netgem's subscription service that adds access to more than 300 cloud games and an extra 150+ channels to stream live.

The Freely front-end is the device's real star, though. It gives you more than 70 UK TV channels to stream, or you can scroll through the electronic programme guide and catch-up on shows and movies you might have missed by just clicking on them. The service opens the relevant streaming app, such as BBC iPlayer or ITVX.

The puck is also super small, so is easy to hide in an AV cabinet, so at just £84.14 with no extra enforced costs, it's a real bargain. Just note two things: the deal is exclusive to Prime members, although you can sign up for a 30-day trial for free; and the Prime Big Deal Days sale ends at midnight tonight (7 October 2026), so you need to be quick off the draw to get this price. Good luck.

If anyone asks me what the best headphones for travel are, then I'm quick to answer – Bose's QuietComfort over-ears are the lightest, most portable option with the best active noise-cancelling (ANC).

Check out Bose's QC SC Headphones on Amazon

There are an abundance of options, though, with the top-tier Ultra model my favourite. But there's a slight step-down version, the 'SC', that can save you even more money – as they lack the spatial audio features and hard carry case.

Right now, as it's the last day of Amazon's October Prime Day sale, that already lower-than-flagship asking price is further reduced, down by a massive 44% – making these over-ears close to half the price.

This particular discount is for the black pair, but there's a 'White Smoke' finish for a few quid more if you prefer – I'd avoid it, personally, as I received the QC Ultra 2 model in that guise and think it looks too plasticky; the black is much classier.

I should repeat that this is part of Amazon's sale, so that price won't necessarily hold after the clock ticks over from Wednesday 7 October – so if you're in the market for quality headphones then now's the time to get that basket to checkout.

Amazon does offer an interesting 0% credit option, however, so with these you could pay £32.29 a month for five months and spread the payment – without paying a penny more than the discounted price. That'd be my way of buying these, if I was in the market for more headphones.

I'm writing this from the UK, and take it from me – you don't know how good you have it in the US. Sure, the cost of tech products is skyrocketing broadly, but the reality is that the dollar remains strong compared to the Euro and Sterling, at least when it comes to the latest tech launches. You only have to compare the UK and US prices of the iPhone Duo to underline that, after all.

If you're a fan of physical media, though, and you're based in the US, you're also winning on that front. Here in the UK, getting a 4K Blu-ray for anything less than £20 is generally a good result – that comes out to around $26, so you can see the problem here.

Just peruse the ongoing Prime Big Deal Days sale on Amazon, though, and you'll find a host of superb movies on 4K disc for far less than that – with a whole heap of them coming in at $15 or below right now. I've picked out five highlights, but you can find a whole range on Amazon yourself, too. All of these are substantially more expensive in the UK, so if you buy one, just know that I'm jealous.

Amazon had hinted that its October Prime Day sale would be littered with TV discounts and, sure enough, here we are with some great cut-price options.

I've been reviewing TVs for many years and will be scouring Amazon's listings during its two-day sale – it's the final day today, Wednesday 7 October, so these prices may change thereafter – to scout out the best buys.

Whether you're after a big screen, or something smaller and more affordable, there's something here for everyone – as my 'Top 3' pick highlighted below.

T3's Top 3 TV deals:

With Amazon's October Prime sale in full effect, the deals have come in thick and fast – as it's all over in a matter of hours, at the end of Wednesday 7 October.

I've found plenty of goodies (and bought some items of my own), but I think I've found the best budget laptop deal of the entire sale in Lenovo's mega-discounted Ideapad.

Check out the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 deal on Amazon

While I've already highlighted a must-buy Sonos upgrade for soundbar surround sound and a bunch of decent TV deals, if you're after one of the cheapest of laptops then this Lenovo deal is a veritable bargain.

Lenovo's budget offerings have long been a success in our best budget laptops feature, with this particular model now at a lower price than I've ever seen it before – approaching the half-price marker!

It's also very timely, as mere months ago Apple announced the MacBook Neo. I'm massively impressed with that laptop, of course, which I think is ideal for students – but those wanting a Windows machine for a fraction of the price aren't going to be interested.

That's where this £399 offer comes into play. This is Lenovo's bargain basement asking price, really, and in the RAMageddon crisis of now it's rare to find any decent Windows machine at such an asking price.

As we progress into a Googlebook era, competition and consumer choice changes. But those are brand new and pricier at present – again opening the door for a classic Windows machine such as this Lenovo.

Best get a move on, though, as this Amazon sale is over and done with after 23:59 today (Wednesday 7 October), so your buying window for this Windows machine isn't very long...

The big online sales periods are superb for elevating your gaming, whether it be with a new retro gaming handheld, PC or accessory for your existing system. In particular, there are often great deals on pro-standard game controllers, which give your console, PC or even mobile play a significant boost.

• Shop all Amazon Prime Big Deal Days offers

Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days sale is no exception, with a selection of highly recommended controllers available with huge discounts. There are variants from multiple trusted brands for different formats, with savings of up to 45% off. Here are a few of our favourites.

Do note, that all of the deals above require Amazon Prime membership. However, you can sign up for a 30-day free trial with no commitment to continue after the month is up.

Also, the Prime Big Deal Days sale finishes tonight at midnight (7 October 2026) so you'll need to be quick to get the best offers.

Sonos only just dropped the Ace Ultra, its newest and most impressive headphones, and they're frankly phenomenal (as someone who's been using them for a couple of weeks now). The five-star verdict we gave them is ironclad, in my opinion, but there's no getting around the fact that they're jolly expensive.

Before I got my hands on the Ace Ultra, I was the proud owner of a pair of standard Ace headphones, and the reality is that I had absolutely no complaints about them. Now, in the latter stages of Amazon's two-day Prime Big Deal Days event, they're looking even better than before, thanks to a frankly massive price cut.

Shop all Amazon Prime deals

With the Ace Ultra debuting at £399, we always knew that the standard Ace might become one heck of a deal by comparison, as Sonos allows its price to slide in sales events, and that's proven true immediately. Nearly half price, this deal sees them hover just over the £200 mark, and for that money they're a steal.

When they arrived back in 2024, we were absolutely amazed by how comfortable they were, and they remain basically the gold standard on that front (and it's telling that the Ace Ultra changed almost nothing on that front).

Their sound is also brilliant, though, and the ANC on offer is also extremely solid. That latter feature is probably where the uplift to the Ace Ultra is steepest, as well as some new connectivity options, but those won't apply for most people, and the normal Ace are now pretty much half the price of their newer sibling.

In that light, they're clearly the more sensible purchase for the vast majority of people, and this marks a great opportunity. That said, Amazon's sale ends at the end of today (7 October), so don't be surprised if the deal disappears at that point, too.

Having recently acquired the Sonos Beam Ultra soundbar as part of my audio-visual suite, I was fortunate enough to already have the brand's Sub to make for bigger bass.

But there was one key ingredient missing: true surround sound. Fortunately, by virtue of the Amazon Prime Day sale this October, I've just managed to upgrade that too!

Check out the Era 100 SL deal on Amazon

That's because the Sonos Era 100 SL just got its biggest price cut to date. Buy a pair and you, too, can pair them with your Sonos soundbar for true rear channels – and a surround sound upgrade that makes a huge difference!

While the new Beam Ultra did add a very cool feature, enabling you to use wireless speakers – namely the Move 2 or newer Play model – as part of a surround setup, those are much pricier speakers.

If you're looking for that Sonos soundbar upgrade on the cheap – or certainly cheaper – then my advice is to nab a pair of SL speakers instead. Two of them will cost you less than either of the portable products above!

What's particularly great about such a setup is that when you're not using the Era 100 SL pair as rear surrounds, you can use them as a stereo pair for music – if you don't fancy outputting tunes through a full soundbar in tandem (which you can also do, of course).

If this upgrade is your first stepping stone towards better TV audio then I'd also strongly suggest considering adding a Sonos Sub Mini if you don't have one. The Sonos Sub 4 is huge and expensive and likely overkill – unless you have a huge screen and room with a Sonos Arc Ultra.

Or if you can't have a subwoofer in your home setup, as it'd be too problematic for your neighbours or even your own family or cohabitants, then the SL upgrade is a really big step in changing TV and movie audio for the better. You won't regret it.

There is a likely time limit to this deal, though, as Amazon's October sale is over at the end of today (Wednesday 7 October) and, as before, the price may jump back up to regular levels thereafter.

If you're a big fan of The Lord of the Rings, and you should be, there are a couple of Lego sets that have almost certainly caught your eye over the last couple of years, with the biggest and most expensive being the Lego Icons The Lord of the Rings: Rivendell set.

Normally priced at a massive £429.99, it's the one set I've enjoyed building the most over the last few years, with a fair few other Lego sets to my name. With over 6,000 pieces, it hides countless amazing references to the Peter Jackson movies, including whole interior parts that you can't even really see from most angles.

Now, Amazon's knocked this huge Lego set down to within a couple of quid of its lowest price ever for Prime Big Deal Days. This means you can grab Lego Rivendell for just £355.99. That might still be quite a chunk of change, but it's the sort of massive reduction that very rarely rolls around for Lego sets that are this popular and exclusive.

Of course, there's no getting around the fact that this is still a really pricey kit, even at its lowest price ever. For anyone looking to pick up a Lego bargain this Black Friday without necessarily remortgaging their home, there are other options if you search for them.

In particular I'm impressed by the reduction on this Lego Star Wars Imperial Star Destroyer set, which is down from £149.99 to £126.99 and might be a more logical choice if you're looking for a gift. After all, it's still a big enough set to impress plenty of people, but it comes in much more affordably.

So, that should give you a couple of great options at different budget levels – but, again, I really can't rate the Rivendell set highly enough. I've built a lot of Lego in my time, and it blew me away with the level of detail and ingenuity on show. It's also one to dedicate a good chunk of time to – the build can take a couple of dozen hours if you relax and enjoy it.

Shopping for some new headphones can be a stressful process – after all, there are countless out there on the market, and the average standard has become uncomfortably high. From sound quality to noise cancellation, the average high-end headphones are now frankly brilliant.

So, it might be smart to look for a brand that's doing something different, if you want a more niche experience that isn't mirrored by every single major headphone-maker, and I'd say Nothing fits the bill. This UK-based brand has been ripping up the rules of design for a good few years now.

It just released its first truly high-end headphones, the Nothing Headphone (1) Pro, but I think the smart money is actually on its older, mid-range offering – the standard Headphone (1). A tasty deal on Amazon right now, as part of its Prime Big Deal Days sale, makes that even more true than usual.

The crucial thing about the Nothing Headphone (1) is that it has basically the best controls ever put on some headphones, in my opinion. Nothing genuinely innovated here, adding a roller button for volume control and play/pause, along with a rocker that lets you skip through tracks intuitively.

With a tactile on/off switch to add to the party and a couple more buttons for functionality, it adds up to a brilliant case study in user convenience, and I love how it shook things up.

On top of that, the sound quality you get for the price is genuinely great, and the ANC is extremely creditable, too. That all means that this deal (knocking nearly £50 off) is a hard one to pass up if you need some new headphones. These ones have a design that will make you stand out from the crowd, and some features that'll make you glad to have grabbed them.

The Peanuts x Timex Expedition Acadia is down to £56.99 on Amazon, a 19% saving on an already affordable field watch. Although it isn't quite the lowest price we've ever seen, it's a lovely little watch for comfortably under £60.

Shop all Timex deals on Amazon

The star of the show is obviously Snoopy. The dial depicts him dressed as a Beagle Scout alongside Woodstock, giving an otherwise fairly traditional Expedition field watch a playful Peanuts twist.

Make no mistake: this is a proper Timex Expedition watch with a 40mm black resin case, an acrylic crystal and a black fabric strap with a simple hook-and-loop closure.

The white dial is highly legible, with large Arabic numerals accompanied by a smaller 24-hour scale. There's also a date window at three o'clock and luminous hands for checking the time after dark.

And because it's a Timex, you get INDIGLO, the brand's electroluminescent backlight that illuminates the dial at the press of the crown.

Perhaps most surprisingly for such an inexpensive and playful watch, it's also rated for 100 metres of water resistance. That makes it far more useful for outdoor adventures than its Snoopy artwork might initially suggest.

Amazon's £56.99 price isn't an unprecedented low, but it's still a decent reduction against the £70 RRP. More importantly, it's a genuinely fun field watch for less than £60, and I'd take Snoopy and Woodstock over another anonymous black dial any day.

Amazon's Prime Day sale is in full swing, but you don't necessarily need to shop at Amazon to find some of today's best deals.

Argos has just dropped the Apple Watch Series 11 42mm GPS to £219, down from £319. That's a substantial £100 saving, and it makes the previous-generation Apple Watch considerably cheaper than its successor.

Shop all smartwatch deals at Argos

The offer includes the 42mm Jet Black aluminium model with a Black Sport Band, and Argos currently lists four colour options for the Series 11.

Having recently tested the newer Series 12, I think £219 makes its predecessor extremely easy to recommend. The Series 12 might be the latest and greatest, but the Series 11 still delivers the core Apple Watch experience and most of the features people actually use every day.

The Series 11 has almost identical health tools, including ECG, blood oxygen readings, sleep tracking, sleep score, irregular heart rhythm alerts and hypertension notifications, plus Apple's Vitals app for keeping tabs on overnight metrics.

It's similarly well-equipped for exercise, too, with GPS tracking for running, cycling, swimming and hiking. You also get Heart Rate Zones, training load, Pacer and Apple's Workout Buddy features when paired with a compatible iPhone.

Battery life is rated at up to 24 hours, and the 42mm version weighs just 30.3g. There's also an Always-On Retina LTPO3 OLED display, 64GB of storage and the same tight integration with the iPhone that remains one of the biggest reasons to choose an Apple Watch in the first place.

Owners seem pretty happy with it, too. The Series 11 currently has an impressive 4.9 out of five from 541 Argos reviews, with 97% of customers recommending it.

If you've been waiting for Amazon's Prime Day sale to finally build out that home gym, one of NordicTrack's most accessible treadmills just got considerably more tempting.

Shop all NordicTrack deals on Amazon

The NordicTrack T Series 5 is down to £499 at Amazon, compared with the £599 RRP shown on the retailer's listing. That's a £100 saving on a fully fledged treadmill from one of the biggest names in connected home fitness.

It's not quite an unprecedented price for the machine, but £499 is right at the bottom end of what Amazon has charged over the past year. Most recently, it had climbed back to around £600, making the Prime-exclusive offer well worth considering.

It's proving popular with owners, too, with Amazon reviewers describing it as a "solid, high-quality treadmill", while another said, "Love it!" One buyer simply remarked, "Wow, this exceeded my expectations."

The T Series 5 sits towards the affordable end of NordicTrack's current treadmill range, but it's a considerable step up from the basic walking pads that dominate the cheaper end of Amazon.

There's a 140 x 46cm cushioned running surface, and the treadmill tops out at 16km/h (10mph). That's fast enough for everything from walking and easy jogging to reasonably brisk running sessions. The deck uses cushioning designed to reduce impact.

You also get powered incline up to 10%, which adds some much-needed variety if endless flat treadmill miles aren't your idea of fun. A small LCD shows your essential workout metrics, and there's a device shelf for your phone or tablet.

Connect your device via Bluetooth to use iFIT, which offers thousands of trainer-led workouts (subscription required). Compatible workouts can automatically control the treadmill's speed and incline, which is nice at this price point.

At £499 for Prime members, it's a particularly attractive option for anyone looking to keep their running going as the weather deteriorates over autumn and winter.

Shopping for a gaming laptop is a complicated process in 2026, largely because the memory crisis has spiked prices something fierce. Laptop makers that used to be able to churn out reliably wallet-friendly machines are increasingly being forced to raise their prices.

Still, that doesn't mean it's impossible to find a deal at any cost – you just need to be a little more patient and wait for the right opportunity. I'd say Amazon's latest Prime Big Deal Days event is a great example, since it's brought a surprising number of chunky laptop deals to the table.

Of course, you'll need to be a Prime member to take advantage of this one, which also has a limited number of units before the price disappears, but if you tick that box and want a new gaming laptop with oodles of power, MSI's here for you.

Getting an Nvidia RTX 5080 is a great start for any gaming laptop, but that alone doesn't explain the normally lofty RRP of this Stealth machine from MSI – although the other components really do help. For one thing, you get 2TB of storage at a time when this sort of memory is at a crazy premium (and 32GB of RAM will help, too).

Crucially, the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processor that powers the system is a beast, and means that you won't be CPU throttled while gaming, something that can threaten the performance of lower-specced laptops commonly enough.

The really great thing, in my view, is that this is a laptop that doesn't scream out its gamer credentials. MSI has taken great strides in design terms in the last couple of years, and while the 2026 revision of this model is even sleeker, this 2025 version is still plenty lovely to look at, even for a 16-incher.

Things are rounded out by a 2560x1600, 240Hz display panel that should be ideal for competitive gaming or immersive single-player fare alike. It's one heck of a package, and £800 off is absolutely nothing to sniff at. If you're on the lookout for a sleek new gaming laptop with basically no power compromises, you might not see much better than this.

Cor, this one's a scorcher of a deal! Niche, granted, but audiophiles will surely be paying attention to what's one of Amazon's best October Prime Day deals.

Astell&Kern's desktop audio system, the CA1000T, is usually priced at £2300 – but Amazon has done the unthinkable and slashed 77% from the asking price.

Check out the Acro CA1000T deal on Amazon

I love finding decent deals like this. A specialised product such as the CA1000T is a rare and unexpected addition to the Prime sale – but a most welcome one in T3's hunt for the best premium tech.

You're probably on this page because you already know about the CA1000T. But, if you don't, then what exactly is it all about?

This is Astell&Kern's headphones amplifier and digital-audio-player (DAP) combined in one. It can drive some of the best wired headphones, no need for additional amplification thanks to an in-built triple amp system.

Whether you're using the 3.5mm or 6.35mm unbalanced outputs, or the 2.5mm or 4.4mm balanced outputs, every headphone type is catered for here.

To its rear are a variety of inputs: optical, 4.4mm in, USB-C audio in, coaxial in, and a microSD card slot. Output, if you want to connect beyond headphones, covers XLR and RCA stereo, plus there's Wi-Fi and Bluetooth if you prefer wireless.

The CA1000T was the first product ever to use the ESS ES9039MPRO Dual-DAC solution, which can support high-res playback up to DSD512 and 32bit/768kHz. That's unparalleled in any product I've ever seen.

So if you're looking for an audiophile treat this Prime Day sale then, well, hands down it seems that Astell&Kern's desktop system has won that crown – and it's even cheaper than it was during Black Friday last year!

It's increasingly becoming commonly accepted that the best time to buy a gaming laptop will always be "last year" from now on. The still-surging prices in the memory component market mean that laptops are now about as expensive as they've ever been, and no model is guaranteed to stay the same price for long.

This means that when you do want a new gaming machine, it's more important than ever that you look out for good sales events to help you get a cut price. Frankly, I think there's a case to be made that these are now the only times when it makes sense to make a major tech purchase.

While the deal I'm showcasing here isn't technically part of Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days event, I think it's likely prompted by that event, and either way it gets you a big chunk off a really capable 16-inch Acer gaming laptop, making it one to pay attention to.

Getting a laptop with the latest generation of Nvidia cards (a generation that looks set to last a good long while, given the AI industry's hunger for GPUs) is always a good idea if you can afford it. That's just future-proofing, after all. Here, the 5070 should be bankable for ages, based on how it performs with even pretty challenging games right now.

To round out the spec list, the Nitro V 16 AI has a 1TB SSD, which is good since you do occasionally see 500GB instead, even at this sort of price. Its CPU is an AMD Ryzen 7 260, which is great for eking a bit more battery life out when you're not gaming on the machine (if that's a use case you can imagine).

Meanwhile, its 16-inch display comes in at 1920x1200 resolution, which means you can get really sharp if you want it, and with a refresh rate of 180 Hz you'll be able to enjoy extremely smooth gameplay.

It's a great little package, although "little" isn't really the right word, given its size – and if you're on the lookout for a gaming laptop this month, you probably won't see many steeper discounts.

There are hundreds of different coffee machines out there, but De'Longhi is a brand you can't really go wrong with. It has a great range of the best bean-to-cup machines, and without sounding too obvious, I have to admit it's one of my own favourites.

With Amazon's Big Deal Days kicking off today, I've been through the offers to round up some of the best De'Longhi deals currently available. As I mentioned in my piece on 3 affordable De'Longhi machines I'd buy over an expensive one, you don't have to spend a fortune to get a great brew, and this is a good place to start.

The original CRKD Nitro Deck couldn't have arrived at a better time. The pro controller housing for the Nintendo Switch not only gave the console extra buttons and capabilities, its Hall Effect thumbsticks completely eliminated any Joy-Con drift issues.

Now the brand is back with the Nitro Deck 2 for the Switch 2 and original Switch and it once again adds tech that Nintendo itself seemingly forgot. And what's more, it's got a very healthy 17% off for Prime Big Deal Days – even though it's only just hit the market.

The Nitro Deck 2 has been specifically designed with the Switch 2 in mind, but it can also be used with the original Switch and Switch OLED thanks to an included adapter.

You strap in the display portion of your console, link the controller via Bluetooth or an included USB-C cable (for zero latency) and it effectively replaces your Joy-Cons with TMR equivalents.

These use magnets for faster, more accurate control. They are also impervious to stick drift, so you won't have any troubles down the line. In addition, you get four remappable back buttons, two extra shoulder buttons, and you can adjust the thumbsticks manually to increase or decrease deadzones. There's a turbo mode too, plus adjustable vibration control.

The controller will even work with a Switch, mobile phone or smart TV independently of the main console screen. And there is a kick stand built in to set your device on a table top.

Two of the colour options are available in the Prime Big Deal Days sale – Smoke Black and PAL Grey.

You will need to be an Amazon Prime member to get the deal, but if you're not already you can sign up for a 30-day trial for free.

Earlier this year I got acquainted with Shokz's latest and most comfortable open-ear earbuds, the OpenDots 2 – and they're a 5-star smash.

Now, as part of Amazon's Prime sale this October, those super-comfortable running earbuds are now lower-priced than ever before, dropping 15% from their asking price.

Check out the OpenDots 2 deal on Amazon

These earbuds are ideal for running, as they're completely open – to the point you'll forget you're wearing them – without blocking out any surrounding sound, thus enhancing your safety.

As is often the case with Amazon's sales, this is a time-limited promotion, as the latest Prime deals run until the very end of tomorrow, Wednesday 7 October. So if you're looking to buy, don't hesitate beyond then.

What sets the OpenDots 2 apart from the mounting competition in this space is what I described as "supremely comfortable fit – without disturbing your inner ear canal". That's why they're ideal for workouts.

The sound remains surprisingly solid, though, with decent bass levels delivered – assuming you're not in a super-noisy environment anyway, as that's a limitation of this 'bud type.

You won't get any noise-cancelling or suchlike features here, as that's the opposite of an open-ear design. But you will get enhanced safety by being always aware of your surroundings – without needing to forego your playlist or podcast listening session.

Shokz has gone to town with this Amazon promotion, as far more of its products than just the OpenDots 2 have discounts – check out the full Shokz Store on Amazon for the full rundown.

So whether you're looking for bone-conduction running headphones, or smaller and more affordable clip-on types, there's an option for everyone in this sale.

Mini PCs are really having their time in the sun and Geekom is leading the charge. The PC manufacturer has a huge lineup of options at a wide range of budgets, and they all represent great value for money.

That's even more true during big sales periods, such as Amazon's current Prime Big Deal Days. There are amazing discounts on Geekom mini PCs in both the UK and US, including on one of my own favourite, affordable models – the Geekom A5 Pro.

I used a Geekom A5 to build my ultimate retro gaming console last year, but have recently replaced it with the A5 Pro. There's not much difference between them, but you do get a slight processor bump and more storage. The case has a different hue too (it's rose gold on the A5).

Those in the US can also opt for a 2027 version of the Geekom A5 with a similar discount.

If you're looking for something more powerful though, I have also been testing the Geekom A9 Max in recent times. This is the company's flagship consumer mini PC and it runs on the super meaty AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 processor. You also get 32GB of RAM and a 2TB SSD – no mean feat during a components crisis.

I can thoroughly recommend the A9 Max if you want something for content creation, video processing and decent gaming performance in a super small form factor. I've even been using it as a Steam Machine alternative.

Geekom is offering 15% on both sides of the pond.

There are plenty of other Geekom mini PC deals on both Amazon UK and Amazon US, including across the brand's Intel-based products.

One other offer I particularly recommend though is exclusive to those in the States. I gave the Geekom Geekbook X16 Pro the full five-stars in my review and the superlight laptop is also available with 15% off.

Finally, if none of these deals tickle your fancy, Geekom has some great offers on its own site too, including the Geekom A5 Pro for US readers. You just need to enter the T3 code of T3A5PDFB at checkout.

Plenty of attention might be getting sucked up currently by an explosion of deals as part of Amazon's Big Deal Days event, but don't let that distract from the fact that it's a big week for Google in hardware terms.

Having finally unveiled its Googlebook revolution a couple of weeks ago, the laptops are now starting to actually hit store shelves, and that means launch deals, in some cases. One in particular has caught our eye, and it happens to be the most affordable laptop in the range.

The Acer Chromebook 14 comes in at £999 here in the UK, a price that means Google can tout the whole range as starting below £1,000, handily. While there's no actual discount on that price at launch, Acer is offering a free bundle to early adopters that might well make it worth ordering soon.

The deal here is slightly convoluted, though. Basically, buy your Acer Chromebook 14, get it delivered and set it up. Register the laptop with Acer on its website, and you'll be able to claim your rewards bundle, which will be shipped to you. It includes a 100W GaN fast charger, a 5-in-1 USB Type-C hub, an Acer wireless mouse, an extended 3-year warranty and 10 trees planted in your name by Ecologi.

That's a nice little heap of extras, and since Acer's Googlebook doesn't have anything other than USB-C ports, that hub could come in particularly handy.

The laptop looks like a super interesting bit of hardware, from its custom Googlebook OS to the lovely 2.8K OLED 120Hz touchscreen. I've actually been sent a review unit on loan from Acer, so keep your eyes peeled for the T3 verdict coming soon (and it won't be the only Googlebook I test over the next month).

Amazon Prime events happen throughout the year, though after the main Prime Day in June, the October event is the one to look out for. It's the precursor to the full Black Friday that every retailer gets involved in, but because of that, it's often surprising.

This two-day sale offers big discounts for a short time, so if you move fast, you can bag great deals. That's not to say everything is worth buying, though.

The challenge is finding those items that are actually deals, among the hoards of products that are merely discounted to earlier prices, or are simply old models now superseded by newer and better offerings.

For that reason, we've put together a simple list of just a few key products that we think are worth a look. So, if you are considering making a purchase, this is the place to start.

The sale runs from midnight on Tuesday, October 6, through 11:59 pm (PST) on Wednesday, October 7, 2026. Remember, you do need to be a Prime member to benefit from these discounts, and you must complete your purchase before the deal runs out – otherwise you could be paying full price.

When is the next Amazon Prime Day?

The next Prime Day is right now – well, Prime Big Deal Days, to be precise. The sale starts at midnight on Tuesday October 6, and finishes at 11:59 pm (PST) on Wednesday, October 7. That means you'll be able to get record-low prices across multiple departments, especially on Amazon devices.

The last Amazon Prime Day took place from June 23 to June 26 2026. There will be further Amazon sales for Black Friday.

How to get a free Prime account for Prime Day

You might already know this (the clue's in the title), but you need to be an Amazon Prime member to shop the Prime Day sale.

However, not only do Amazon Prime members get to shop the Prime Day sale, but they also get early access to ALL Lightning Deals and extra offers on Prime benefits, like coupon offers, free Deliveroo Plus and plenty of other benefits. A Prime subscription is definitely something to consider, therefore.

If you're new to Prime, Amazon Prime is available on a 30-day free trial for all new members. If you're a student, there's even better news as Amazon offers a free six-month Amazon Prime trial on Prime Student and after that, it will only cost you £4.49 a month.

To shop the Prime Day sale, our advice would be to sign up for a Prime account a couple of weeks before the sales start so you can shop the sale for free - including any cheeky early offers.

You can cancel your account at any time if you're not happy with it and you'll have got the best deals from the Prime Day sale, free unlimited delivery and you won't have paid a penny for the membership fee. If you decide to keep your Prime account, see our guide on how to save money on Amazon Prime for money-saving hacks.

What were the best Prime Day deals last year?

Prime Day 2025 resulted in some great offers across multiple departments.

The best deals were on a range of tech, kitchen and beauty products. For example, the Samsung S90C TV was on sale with over 40% off, the Apple AirPods Max headphones were at their cheapest yet, and you could get a Philips Hue Starter Kit to begin your smart lighting journey for under £100.

Overall, Amazon devices had the biggest discounts, with Echo speakers, Blink cameras, Kindles and Fire tablets hitting record low prices. Alongside this, Ninja, Sage and Tefal kitchen appliances came with amazing offers, as did Xbox and PS5 controllers.

What brands had the best prices on Prime Day last year?

Plenty of different brands took part in the sales last year, with Sony and Bose being two of the most sought after. Speakers, earbuds and headphones were particularly popular.

Philips, Samsung and Shark all saw big price drops too, and makeup brands like Rimmel saw great sales.

Due to the cost of living crisis, we believe people use these sales to stock up on essentials for around the home - from washing-up liquid to coat hangers, teabags to cat food. Amazon delivers with incredibly low prices on these products, especially on its Vouchers page.

How much is Amazon Prime membership?

Amazon Prime membership costs £8.99 per month or £95 for a year when paid in advance. For students, the cost is £4.49 monthly and the annual subscription is £47.49.

So, if you want Prime to shop the Prime Day sale, we recommend signing up before the event and if you're new, you can shop with a free month's trial. You can then cancel Prime soon after and it won't cost you a penny more.

Will Prime Day be better than Black Friday?

Prime Day is heralded as Amazon's biggest sales event of the year. However, Amazon is also well known for its Black Friday sales. Last year, Amazon started its Black Friday sale early, weeks in advance of the official sales date. Many shoppers got to take advantage of early discounts and themed weeks that Amazon ran in the lead-up to Black Friday.

Having said that, there are a couple of key differences between Prime Day and Black Friday. The most obvious is that Black Friday isn't an Amazon-only sale. Retailers from around the world take part in the annual event and slash their prices during the Black Friday and Cyber Monday weekend. Black Friday is also available for all shoppers and not just Prime members.

As Black Friday is the more famous shopping event, you might find cheaper prices. However, Amazon is a big component of the Black Friday sale and its Prime Day sales have some of the cheapest offers on the day. This isn't to say that Amazon won't have low prices on Black Friday but if you're a regular Amazon shopper or Prime user, you'll find the cheapest offers available during the Prime Day sale.

Prime Member benefits to use on Prime Day

When you sign up to Amazon Prime, you not only get access to Lightning Deals and the Prime Day sale. Prime members also get other benefits like Prime Video, Amazon Music, Prime Gaming, Prime Reading, flexible delivery options, and shopping benefits like savings on prescriptions and groceries. So, if you want to save extra money in the Prime Day sale, here are the best Prime Member benefits you should definitely use this Prime Day.

Check your delivery options

While the main benefit of Prime is flexible deliveries, one delivery option that can help you save money is free no-rush shipping. If you’re not in a hurry for your items or you’re looking to save money, select the no-rush option at checkout and your order will be delivered within 3-5 days. It’s still free and to thank you for your patience, Amazon gives you an automatic discount on your next order.

Use Amazon Vouchers

Every day, new vouchers are added to the Amazon Voucher page which you can collect and use at the checkout for extra money off your orders. Head to the Amazon Voucher page, find the voucher you want to us – for example, a coupon for 30% off wireless earbuds – and click ‘Collect Voucher’. This will take you to a page with details on how to claim and the discount will be applied at checkout.

Try Before You Buy

Amazon Try Before You Buy is where Prime members can pick up to 6 eligible clothing items from the Prime Wardrobe and try them for free. You’ll have a week to try on the clothes or shoes to make sure they fit, and after the 7-day try-on period, you pay for what you want to keep and send back the stuff you don’t.

Subscribe & Save

If you buy repeat purchases on Amazon every week or month, use Subscribe & Save. This accumulates all your frequent purchases together like toiletries, cleaning products and beauty essentials, which makes checking out easier and offers up to 15% off the original price when you schedule repeat deliveries.

What kind of sales has Amazon run in the past?

Looking at last year's Amazon sales is a good indication of what to expect the next time they come around, including Prime Day, Black Friday and Prime Day 2 (Prime Big Deal Days). Amazon constantly has deals available site-wide on a range of products in its 'Today's Deals' section.

At T3, we like to consider ourselves experts on big sales events so by looking at the patterns from Amazon's 2025 sales, we've come up with a few predictions for what we expect to see in 2026.

Like most retailers, Amazon sticks to seasonal holidays, so during spring it offers a wide range of products, including laptops, air fryers, headphones and lawnmowers. As Prime Day traditionally happens in July, there are deals on absolutely everything, but especially on Amazon devices, air conditioners, vacuum cleaners and premium beauty.

Amazon also typically runs themed weeks throughout the year, and specifically in the run-up to its Black Friday event. In the past, there have been Gardening Week and Fragrance Week events. All of this gives us a strong indication that these deals could make a comeback during 2026.

Portable power stations aren't cheap, especially once you move beyond the smaller models designed primarily for charging phones and laptops, which is why this deal on one of my favourite EcoFlow models is worth a look.

Shop all EcoFlow deals on Amazon

The EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus has dropped to £549 at Amazon, down from its £699 RRP, saving you £150 or 21%. It's also £50 cheaper than EcoFlow's current £599 direct price. The £549 offer is a Prime-exclusive deal, so you'll need an Amazon Prime membership to get the lowest price.

I reviewed the EcoFlow DELTA 3 Plus for T3, and there's a lot to like about it. It's surprisingly compact given the power on offer, yet its 1,800W output means it can handle considerably more demanding appliances than smaller portable batteries.

Its 1,024 Wh LFP battery is robust, with EcoFlow claiming 4,000 cycles before falling to 80% of its original capacity. To put it in perspective, it would take nearly 11 years af chargin and draining the DELTA 3 Plus every day to get to the point!

There are 11 outputs in total, including four AC sockets and a pair of powerful 140W USB-C ports, so there's plenty of capacity to power several devices simultaneously.

Hook the power station up to the mains, and EcoFlow says it'll go from empty to full in just 56 minutes. It can also accept up to 1,000W of solar input, making it a particularly capable option for off-grid use.

EcoFlow rates it at under 30dB when operating below 600W, which is particularly useful if you're keeping it indoors as a backup power source.

Yep, you've read that right. As Senior Homes Writer at T3, it's my job to test the best (and worst) robot vacuum cleaners on the market today, which means I have a pretty strong idea of which models are actually worth it when sales such as Amazon's Big Deal Days roll around.

When I say tested, that can mean anything from putting a robot vacuum through a proper review to getting hands-on with one at events such as IFA. Either way, I've seen plenty of these machines up close, so I have a good feel for which brands and models are worth your attention.

As a result, I've picked out the robot vacuums I'd personally recommend buying this Prime Day, and you'll find each of them below.

The Lego Star Wars Millennium Falcon Ultimate Collector Series (UCS) is one of the biggest-selling sets each major sales period – which is not surprising considering it usually costs over £700. However, in recent times it's been joined by a big sci-fi rival.

The Lego Star Trek U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D has become equally popular since its release last year, and so is also worth looking out for when discounts are available.

It does present a quandary though – especially if you don't already own either. Considering each of them are available with big money off savings this Amazon Prime Big Deal Days, which should you go for?

The obvious answer is "both" – but if your funds are limited, maybe you should check the offers before making a decision.

Of course, the saving on the Millennium Falcon is far greater than on the Star Trek build, but it's relative. For starters, the Enterprise is a more recently released set, so is more current.

It also comes with more minifigures, if that's important to you. And I particularly like the stand that's included for presentation.

What it really boils down to though is whether you're a Star Wars fan for Trekkie. I personally like both, but don't really have the space for the Millennium Falcon so have abstained to date.

And if either is still a bit too spicy for your budget, there are plenty of other Lego deals this Prime Big Deal Days – including the Project Hail Mary build available for around £75 for the first time.

The deals are available until the end of play 7 October 2026, so you'll need to be quick.

I've said it before: much as I love the best streaming services, not one of them is a patch on the best physical media available – and it's 4K Blu-ray that's the ultimate solution, which I continue to purchase.

I've been buying an increasing number of discs lately, as it's part of my New Year's Resolution project to kick off a '4K Blu-ray Club', watching a new or classic piece of cinema on a monthly basis.

Prime Deals 2026 – Our picks of all the best offers

It's turned out to be quite a pricey hobby, unsurprisingly, but then deals like these come along to help out the bank balance a little. Many in Amazon's October sale are even cheaper than in the retailer's June sale.

While I did have a brief fear that physical media would dry up entirely – as I penned in The End Of 4K Blu-ray Will Be A Major Loss For Us All – we're actually seeing an uptick in titles, old and new (indeed, I just watched the 4K remaster of Falling Down – which looks amazing).

5 Honourable mentions

• Lawrence of Arabia – largely considered the peak of remastering (as it's 8K scanned from the 65mm original negative), this epic can't be seen in a more epic way. It just doesn't have any discount right now.
• Flow – a digital animation that can push the limits of detail, brightness and colour as a result, this is also a zero-language beautiful masterpiece that the whole family can enjoy.
• Fight Club – finally, it arrived in 4K physical form, marking 25 years after the original cinematic masterpiece. It looks better than ever here, although the colour cast and visual FX have seen controversial alterations.
• Good Luck, Have Fun, Don't Die – this was hard to find initially, but is now available at a reasonable price; director Gore Verbinski's latest is a wild ride that's as funny as it is reflective
• Falling Down – no current deals on this 4K remaster (which doesn't exist on streaming), showcasing just how high-quality the capture of Michael Douglas' cult classic was – and remains to this day

Don't forget a decent player

Honestly, I could go on and on with this list. It's a sort of infinite possibility in a sense, as there are so many good movies I've not included – many of which you can see in my lead image on this very article.

Do ensure you have a decent source player to use for your watching experience, though, as while the PlayStation 5 is fine, a top-tier BR Player, such as Panasonic's DP-UB820 (or UB9000 if you've got the cash) will make all the difference.

The world of VR started as one with a really high barrier to entry, in the form of £1,000+ headsets that most people couldn't afford, even before you considered the high-end gaming rigs they needed to be connected to. That's long since changed, though, and even with RAMageddon pushing tech prices into uncharted waters, it's still impressively affordable to get into VR.

That does bring one big asterisk with it, though – you have to be comfortable picking up a Meta headset, since Mark Zuckerberg's giant company is the only one maintaining mainstream headsets at approachable prices right now.

In fact, for this October's Amazon Prime Big Deal Days, you can currently get the Quest 3S, a five-star banger of an affordable headset, at a super-impressive price.

The 3S came out a while after the standard Quest 3, which remains the main offering in the Quest lineup right now, and as a result, the newer headset is positioned deliberately as a more affordable choice.

It can't quite match the internal power or resolution of the Quest 3, but if you're relatively new to VR, then I really don't think that you'll feel the difference. The 3S remains extremely capable and sharp when you're wearing it, and it's also got impressive pass-through video to keep you connected to the real world.

Buying it now will get you a free multiplayer game to enjoy when you set the headset up, but you also have a world of other titles to pick up and play when you want them. There are various social experiences to discover, too, and you might well find yourself with a new favourite time-waster.

This price will probably only last for a couple of days, though. Amazon's event ends on 7 October, so it's a real flash in the pan.

You don't need to spend £500 on a high-end Garmin to get many of the training tools that make the company's watches so popular with runners.

Shop all Garmin deals on Amazon

Case in point, the Garmin Forerunner 70 has just dropped to £168.82 at Amazon, down from its £219.99 RRP. That's a saving of just over £51, or 23%, on one of Garmin's most accessible AMOLED running watches.

More importantly, this appears to be a genuine record low. Amazon price history shows the Forerunner 70 previously bottoming out at around £177–£178 in September, before climbing back above £200. Today's deal takes another £9 or so off that previous low.

The Forerunner 70 sits towards the affordable end of the Garmin watch family tree, but that doesn't mean it's dumb. Oh no.

It's built around a 1.2-inch AMOLED touchscreen and includes built-in GPS, wrist-based heart rate monitoring and more than 80 activity profiles.

It'll track the fundamentals you'd expect, including pace, distance and heart rate, but it also gives runners access to considerably more sophisticated training data.

That includes Garmin Coach adaptive training plans, daily suggested workouts, recovery time and HRV Status, bringing features once associated with much more expensive sports watches within reach of newer runners.

Battery life is another major advantage over conventional smartwatches. Garmin quotes up to 13 days in smartwatch mode, so you're not committing yourself to charging it every night just because you want an AMOLED screen.

That's why the Forerunner 70 makes so much sense as a first serious running watch. It's approachable enough for someone training for their first 5K, but there's enough training data under the bonnet to remain useful as your running becomes more ambitious.

Whenever there's a big sales event going on, you can bet there will be some great discounts on Lego sets. And the larger, adult builds suddenly make even more sense considering the savings you can get.

However, while Amazon has some good offers as part of its Prime Big Deal Days sales, which are now in full force, I've actually found some additional bargains off the beaten track. These aren't listed as Prime Deals, but are equally as good, if not better.

There are plenty of other Lego sets available both in the Prime Big Deal Days sale and on the periphery. You can check out some of the other best hidden Lego deals here.

I am a collector myself (who is currently building the Lego PlayStation for a piece I plan to post soon), so am always on the look out for new projects. I'll also highlight a few other great deals I find over Amazon's Prime sales period.

Note, you might need to be a Prime member to make use of the deals I recommend and the vouchers many of them require to get the best prices. However, it's free for the first 30 days if you're not already a subscriber.

Amazon has swooped into action this week, likely because it wants its own slice of the pie compared to Black Friday, when every retailer in the world is competing to offer deals on tech. So, in early October, we now get Prime Big Deal Days, giving extremely impressive discounts to Prime members.

I'm trawling through the thousands of offers available, and with the event only a few hours old, the first big deal to jump out at me on Amazon should come as no surprise, given my recent reviews – it's a Sonos device.

I just reviewed the five-star Sonos Beam Ultra, a stunning new soundbar that pushes the price of the Beam line higher than it's ever been, but it's the older (and still fabulous) Beam Gen 2 that I think would be my personal purchase this week if I were in the market for something.

The main difference between the Beam Gen 2 and the newer Beam Ultra is that the latter has real upfiring drivers for overhead audio in surround-sound settings, but I really think the majority of users won't find fault with the older, substantially cheaper Beam's sound.

It's superb, after all, and I happily used it for years before the Ultra came along – and this deal makes the Beam Gen 2 literally half the price of the Ultra. When that's the arithmetic, I think there's no contest: almost anyone would be better off saving their cash and buying the cheaper soundbar.

After all, this might leave you with leftover budget to pick up some rear surrounds – and how lucky are you? The Sonos Era 100 SL is also discounted for this Prime event, so you could pick up a Beam Gen 2 with two Era 100 SLs, all for less than the cost of just the Beam Ultra.

Picking up a Beam Gen 2 and a couple of Era 100 SLs will basically get you the surround system that I've been using for the past couple of years – and that means I can vouch for how great it is.

Sound quality is crisp and powerful, but you also get nice amounts of subtlety, and Sonos' features like night mode and dialogue boost can be lifesavers if you're trying to watch something obnoxiously loud without making your neighbours hate you.

This sale only lasts for a couple of days, so expect these prices to bounce back up at the end of 7 October – don't hang around if you're thinking of pulling the trigger.

I wasn't expecting to see a half-price deal on the Google Pixel Watch 4 quite this soon, but Amazon clearly has other ideas.

Shop all Pixel Watch offers on Amazon

The Google Pixel Watch 4 45mm LTE is currently just £249 at Amazon UK, exactly half its £499 RRP. That means you're saving a massive £250 on Google's larger cellular smartwatch, and you don't even have to wait until Black Friday.

Better still, this isn't one of those deals where an inflated RRP makes the saving look more impressive than it really is. Looking at the Amazon price history of the smartwatch, the 45mm LTE model was generally between £350 and £500 over the past few months.

Better better still, it's the 45mm LTE Pixel Watch 4 in Matte Black with the Obsidian Active Band that's on offer.

The larger case gives you more screen space, and LTE connectivity means the watch can stay connected when you leave your phone behind, provided you have a compatible mobile plan.

As for specs, the Pixel Watch 4 combines the company's distinctive domed display and Wear OS experience with Gemini and Google's increasingly comprehensive suite of health and fitness features.

That includes heart rate and activity tracking, sleep monitoring, GPS and the Fitbit-powered health and fitness ecosystem. It's also a good choice for Pixel phone owners who want Google's equivalent of the Apple Watch experience.

£250 off a £499 watch is already substantial, but dropping roughly £100 below its previous Amazon low makes this one of the standout smartwatch deals of the sale so far.

The Google Pixel Watch 4 45mm LTE is available for £249 on Amazon UK at the time of writing. The deal shown applies to the Matte Black/Obsidian version and requires an Amazon Prime Membership.

Of the dozens of TVs we review a year here at T3, when it comes to Amazon's best sets there's a theme in those reviews that's my biggest problem with its own-brand TVs.

You already know what I'm going to say: the price. Savvily, however, Amazon has once again just cut the pricing of its Ember TV line – from budget basic to top-tier flagship – with almost half price off some of the sets.

Check out Amazon's Ember TV deals here

It's all part of Amazon Prime Day (technically Big Deals Days) – which runs today and tomorrow (Tuesday 6 to Wednesday 7 October 2026 – and echoes the pricing of the previous Prime Day sale once more.

So just what can you get? Here are my two picks: a 43-inch low-priced 4K model and a higher-end 65-inch model, that brings even greater brightness to the party.

There's a lot of choice when it comes to buying the best TVs of today, though. From Xiaomi to TCL, Hisense to Haier, there are a lot of big-scale budget options to consider.

While TCL's C7K is our go-to high-end yet affordable pick most of the time, this Amazon price drop on its Mini-LED set might make your purchase decision even more of a conundrum – as the Amazon model is more keenly priced.

All Amazon sets also run Fire TV, which is a great interface whether or not you watch much on Amazon Prime. It caters for the UK catch-up channels, Netflix, Disney+, the lot, all direct from the interface.

So if you've been looking for a TV but the biggest problem has been the price, then Amazon has now fixed that in this Prime deal. Whether it's a winter upgrade, a second room purchase, or a bigger screen blowout – there are many options across the range.

Having waited for months to watch Project Hail Mary on 4K Blu-ray, the movie quickly secured its spot among my favourites of 2026.

That has also seen me become slightly obsessed with Rocky and co – including this wonderful Lego Icons set of the Hail Mary spacecraft. Which, thanks to Amazon's Prime Day sale, I've now purchased!

Check out the Project Hail Mary Lego Icons deal on Amazon

As with anything Lego, however, it wouldn't have been an impulse buy at its original £99.99 list price. I'd seen it in Dallas airport earlier this month for the same dollar equivalent – but fortunately Amazon's UK sale pricing beats even that.

While the Hail Mary ship looks great – and you even have to make the functional stand that goes with it – it's really the Ryan Gosling (sorry, Ryland Grace) Minifigure, red space suit and all, and Rocky figure that really make this set for me.

If you're running low on space for Lego builds – there are only so many shelves one can dedicate to the art – then this build's dimensions may be integral to your purchase decision. At 30cm high, 25cm long and 22cm wide, it's roughly a 12-inch vinyl size. If you can visualise that in a cube form.

Amazon had been selling the #11389 Lego Icons set at full price until May of this year, when it began to dip. It dipped below £85 in a sale back in June, then lower again in August, but this new drop as part of the sale marks its lowest-ever position in orbit.

This near-to-25% discount certainly adds to the appeal. It makes me want to go and watch the movie all over again too – which, on 4K Blu-ray, is the best-looking home transfer that you'll get outside of an IMAX cinema (as much of the flick was designed with the 1.43 aspect ratio).

With this set now secured at home, I'm going to resist the temptation to open it and await December's arrival. It'll then become my Advent Calendar replacement, building a bag per day – or however it divides out – in the run-up to the holiday break.

Autumn has well and truly arrived, and Amazon has just slashed the price of a proper Berghaus waterproof jacket to its lowest level yet.

Shop all waterproof jacket deals on Amazon

The Berghaus RG Alpha 2.0 Waterproof Shell Jacket is currently available for £64.56 on Amazon, which is less than half the £140 price Berghaus charges for the same black jacket.

That's a saving of more than £75, or around 54%. Better still, the jacket's Amazon price history suggests this is as cheap as it gets.

The black version hasn't previously fallen below £76 over the past three months, making today's £64.56 offer its lowest Amazon price during that period.

The RG Alpha 2.0 isn't one of Berghaus' expensive technical waterproof shells, and that's arguably what makes this deal interesting.

It's designed as a lightweight everyday waterproof that can handle everything from rainy commutes and dog walks to weekends spent on the trail.

Berghaus uses its own Hydroshell waterproof technology, designed to keep rain out without turning the jacket into an excessively hot and clammy outer layer.

The design is pleasingly straightforward, with an adjustable hood, full-length front zip, zipped pockets, and adjustable cuffs, all in the understated styling that Berghaus does particularly well.

It's also currently sitting at an impressive 4.6 out of five stars from more than 450 Amazon ratings, suggesting it's proved popular beyond the spec sheet. One person even finished their review saying, "I love Berghaus."

At less than £65, that's a compelling proposition from an established British outdoor brand – particularly when more technical waterproof shells can easily push past £200.

As ever with Amazon clothing deals, prices can vary depending on your chosen colour and size, and the £64.56 offer is exclusive to Prime members.

You might've heard: it's Amazon's Prime Day sale (well, 'Prime Big Deals Days' – but nobody calls it that). Which means one thing: lots of decent offers on lots of decent tech.

I've been keeping a close eye on the best TVs, as there were titters that Amazon's sale would be the ideal shopping opportunity for a new panel. And, sure enough, the deals have come flooding in – with this 75-inch mega-discount the first notable winner.

Check out Amazon's Xiaomi TV deal here | or direct from Xiaomi Store

We reviewed Xiaomi's first foray into the TV market earlier this year, praising the TV F Pro for being great value for money for a QLED. And that was at full price – this discount marks it out as a far better deal, with 37% cut from the price.

You might be wondering what QLED is at this stage, too? That's a layer within the TV panel that results in a wider, more vibrant colour range – really adding to the pizzazz of what you're watching.

The backlight is what's called 'direct LED', meaning illumination from behind for greater accuracy than edge-illumination. However, as it's a VA panel type, you don't get great viewing angles – you'll want to view this set front-on for best visuals.

UK customers benefit from integrated Freely TV, which is easy to use and has all your catch-up services – including BBC iPlayer and the full UK set – without the need for any other complex kit. You can stream direct over Wi-Fi, no cable or aerial required.

I notice that Xiaomi's own store is also selling the set at the same discount, so there's a chance that the deal could extend beyond Amazon's two-day time-frame – finishing at 23:59 on Wednesday 7 October – but I wouldn't wait around to gamble.

If you're in the market for a 75-inch TV bargin, then this whopper is a mega deal.

Amazon Prime events happen throughout the year, though after the main Prime Day in June, the October event is the one to look out for. It's the precursor to the full Black Friday that every retailer gets involved in, but because of that, it's often surprising.

This two-day sale provides big discounts over a short amount of time, which means if you move fast, you can bag some great deals. That's not to say everything is worth buying, though.

The challenge is finding those items that are actually deals, among the hoards of products that are merely discounted to earlier prices, or are simply old models now superseded by newer and better offerings.

For that reason, we've put together a simple list of just a few key products that we think are worth a look. So, if you are considering making a purchase, this is the place to start.

The sale runs from midnight on Tuesday 6 October until 11:59 pm on Wednesday 7 October 2026. Remember, you do need to be a Prime member to benefit from these discounts, and you must complete your purchase before the deal runs out – otherwise you could be paying full price.

When is the next Amazon Prime Day?

The next Prime Day is right now – well, Prime Big Deal Days, to be precise. The sale will start at midnight on Tuesday 6 October and finish at 11:59 pm on Wednesday 7 October. That means you'll be able to get record-low prices across multiple departments, especially on Amazon devices.

The last Amazon Prime Day took place from 23 June to 26 June 2026. There will be further Amazon sales for Black Friday.

How to get a free Prime account for Prime Day

You might already know this (the clue's in the title), but you need to be an Amazon Prime member to shop the Prime Day sale.

However, not only do Amazon Prime members get to shop the Prime Day sale, but they also get early access to ALL Lightning Deals and extra offers on Prime benefits, like coupon offers, free Deliveroo Plus and plenty of other benefits. A Prime subscription is definitely something to consider, therefore.

If you're new to Prime, Amazon Prime is available on a 30-day free trial for all new members. If you're a student, there's even better news as Amazon offers a free six-month Amazon Prime trial on Prime Student and after that, it will only cost you £4.49 a month.

To shop the Prime Day sale, our advice would be to sign up for a Prime account a couple of weeks before the sales start so you can shop the sale for free - including any cheeky early offers.

You can cancel your account at any time if you're not happy with it and you'll have got the best deals from the Prime Day sale, free unlimited delivery and you won't have paid a penny for the membership fee. If you decide to keep your Prime account, see our guide on how to save money on Amazon Prime for money-saving hacks.

What were the best Prime Day deals last year?

Prime Day 2025 resulted in some great offers across multiple departments.

The best deals were on a range of tech, kitchen and beauty products. For example, the Samsung S90C TV was on sale with over 40% off, the Apple AirPods Max headphones were at their cheapest yet, and you could get a Philips Hue Starter Kit to begin your smart lighting journey for under £100.

Overall, Amazon devices had the biggest discounts, with Echo speakers, Blink cameras, Kindles and Fire tablets hitting record low prices. Alongside this, Ninja, Sage and Tefal kitchen appliances came with amazing offers, as did Xbox and PS5 controllers.

What brands had the best prices on Prime Day last year?

Plenty of different brands took part in the sales last year, with Sony and Bose being two of the most sought after. Speakers, earbuds and headphones were particularly popular.

Philips, Samsung and Shark all saw big price drops too, and makeup brands like Rimmel saw great sales.

Due to the cost of living crisis, we believe people use these sales to stock up on essentials for around the home - from washing-up liquid to coat hangers, teabags to cat food. Amazon delivers with incredibly low prices on these products, especially on its Vouchers page.

How much is Amazon Prime membership?

Amazon Prime membership costs £8.99 per month or £95 for a year when paid in advance. For students, the cost is £4.49 monthly and the annual subscription is £47.49.

So, if you want Prime to shop the Prime Day sale, we recommend signing up before the event and if you're new, you can shop with a free month's trial. You can then cancel Prime soon after and it won't cost you a penny more.

Will Prime Day be better than Black Friday?

Prime Day is heralded as Amazon's biggest sales event of the year. However, Amazon is also well known for its Black Friday sales. Last year, Amazon started its Black Friday sale early, weeks in advance of the official sales date. Many shoppers got to take advantage of early discounts and themed weeks that Amazon ran in the lead-up to Black Friday.

Having said that, there are a couple of key differences between Prime Day and Black Friday. The most obvious is that Black Friday isn't an Amazon-only sale. Retailers from around the world take part in the annual event and slash their prices during the Black Friday and Cyber Monday weekend. Black Friday is also available for all shoppers and not just Prime members.

As Black Friday is the more famous shopping event, you might find cheaper prices. However, Amazon is a big component of the Black Friday sale and its Prime Day sales have some of the cheapest offers on the day. This isn't to say that Amazon won't have low prices on Black Friday but if you're a regular Amazon shopper or Prime user, you'll find the cheapest offers available during the Prime Day sale.

Prime Member benefits to use on Prime Day

When you sign up to Amazon Prime, you not only get access to Lightning Deals and the Prime Day sale. Prime members also get other benefits like Prime Video, Amazon Music, Prime Gaming, Prime Reading, flexible delivery options, and shopping benefits like savings on prescriptions and groceries. So, if you want to save extra money in the Prime Day sale, here are the best Prime Member benefits you should definitely use this Prime Day.

Check your delivery options

While the main benefit of Prime is flexible deliveries, one delivery option that can help you save money is free no-rush shipping. If you’re not in a hurry for your items or you’re looking to save money, select the no-rush option at checkout and your order will be delivered within 3-5 days. It’s still free and to thank you for your patience, Amazon gives you an automatic discount on your next order.

Use Amazon Vouchers

Every day, new vouchers are added to the Amazon Voucher page which you can collect and use at the checkout for extra money off your orders. Head to the Amazon Voucher page, find the voucher you want to us – for example, a coupon for 30% off wireless earbuds – and click ‘Collect Voucher’. This will take you to a page with details on how to claim and the discount will be applied at checkout.

Try Before You Buy

Amazon Try Before You Buy is where Prime members can pick up to 6 eligible clothing items from the Prime Wardrobe and try them for free. You’ll have a week to try on the clothes or shoes to make sure they fit, and after the 7-day try-on period, you pay for what you want to keep and send back the stuff you don’t.

Subscribe & Save

If you buy repeat purchases on Amazon every week or month, use Subscribe & Save. This accumulates all your frequent purchases together like toiletries, cleaning products and beauty essentials, which makes checking out easier and offers up to 15% off the original price when you schedule repeat deliveries.

What kind of sales has Amazon run in the past?

Looking at last year's Amazon sales is a good indication of what to expect the next time they come around, including Prime Day, Black Friday and Prime Day 2 (Prime Big Deal Days). Amazon constantly has deals available site-wide on a range of products in its 'Today's Deals' section.

At T3, we like to consider ourselves experts on big sales events so by looking at the patterns from Amazon's 2025 sales, we've come up with a few predictions for what we expect to see in 2026.

Like most retailers, Amazon sticks to seasonal holidays, so during spring it offers a wide range of products, including laptops, air fryers, headphones and lawnmowers. As Prime Day traditionally happens in July, there are deals on absolutely everything, but especially on Amazon devices, air conditioners, vacuum cleaners and premium beauty.

Amazon also typically runs themed weeks throughout the year, and specifically in the run-up to its Black Friday event. In the past, there have been Gardening Week and Fragrance Week events. All of this gives us a strong indication that these deals could make a comeback during 2026.

Nex Playground has created quite a buzz since its release in 2023 – so much so that many have tried to copy it, but without hitting the same level of quality.

It's a games console entirely focused on motion gaming for the whole family. You place the small cube in front of your TV and its camera can track natural motions to interact with more than 60 games.

Priced at £204.24 as a Prime Big Deal Days offer, it means you save almost £65 on the console itself.

• Shop all Amazon Prime Big Deal Days offers

You get five games included with the package – Fruit Ninja, Starri, Whac-a-Mole, Go Keeper and Party Fowl – all of which are kid-friendly, but can be played by all ages. If you want to expand the library, you can add a PlayPass subscription which then unlocks the entire games catalogue.

A PlayPass usually starts at £45 for three-months access, with a whole year available for £90.

Nex Playground – other details

The Nex Playground console can recognise up to four players at once, for group play and family friendly competition. And with the cube measuring just 3-inches on all sides, it's small enough to tuck out of the way when not in use.

It also has privacy protections built into the device, including kidSAFE+ COPPA compliance. The manufacturer is also a member of the Family Online Safety Institute and promises that no data is shared online. All motion-tracking data and processing is only stored locally on the device. You also get a built-in camera cover.

We only brought you news on the all-new Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K yesterday and it's available with a massive discount already.

The new model replaces the 4K Select and 4K Plus variants in Amazon's lineup and promises to be faster in operation than ever before. It also comes with the new Fire TV Remote, which has been redesigned to be easier to hit buttons even when not looking directly at it.

There are launch deals available in both the UK and US, with up to 53% off the new streaming device.

The offer is available for a "limited time period", which Amazon US reveals to be until the end of the Prime Big Deal Days sale on 6 and 7 October.

The all-new Fire TV Stick 4K switches from the old Android-based operating system to Amazon's new Vega OS. This means you won't be able to sideload apps that aren't available through the built-in app store, but it can operated much more quickly than previous Sticks.

That's because all of the experience is cloud based, with apps stored on Amazon's servers rather than the device itself. For all intents and purposes, the streamer works exactly the same as you'd expect, but because it doesn't rely on its own on-board processing, loading times are much quicker – up to 40% quicker, in fact.

All of the same streaming services are available, including Prime Video (of course), Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max, Apple TV and Paramount+. There are plenty of games and other apps to be found too.

The new model comes with an all-new Fire TV Remote, which works similarly to previous versions but has been redesigned to be more comfortable to use. There is also a customisable button, which was only available on the higher-end remotes before.

Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days sale runs for 48-hours from 6 October 2026. There are plenty of other Fire TV deals available too.

I travelled to a lot of events last month and sometimes it's easy to get caught out – especially when my phone didn't charge overnight due to a socket issue, but I had to head to the airport early.

Now, my Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 lasts well, but as I needed to tether for on-the-go-connectivity to work when in transit, the already low percentage was battered a bit more. But then a colleague stepped in with this amazing Anker power bank.

Check out the Anker deal on Amazon

Since then, I've been contemplating buying one – and I've just seen on Amazon that there's 27% off the price, which is lower than the last few months. It is now Amazon's Big Deals Days sale – running 6 to 7 October – and the price is holding.

I know there are dozens, if not hundreds, of various power bank options out there, so why the Anker? There are myriad reasons, but first and foremost it's a brand that I trust more than others – and with various cheap ones erupting on flights, causing airlines to change their rules, I'm keen to ensure I've got a quality product.

Beyond that, however, it's the versatility of this particular power bank. Its 25,000mAh capacity is massive – it could recharge my Samsung phone five times over – and it includes two USB-C cables on the product itself, ready to plug into your devices.

Its also a fast power bank, offering decent charging speeds, of up to 100W. That's quicker than many of the current best phones are even able to charge at, so it's like plugging into a wall socket at home – and even with two devices charging at once (my laptop was also plugged in), it doesn't zap the output speed, as each port can maintain that speed.

There's even a handy display screen on the front, which shows the charging speed attained for each of the USB-C ports. And if you have an additional spare cable then you can plug into a third port with the same speed ceiling; there's a fourth port, a full-size USB-A, which isn't as quick – but still very handy if that's the cable type you happen to possess (or just want to charge four devices at once).

Those step-up features are what makes this power bank worth spending the extra on. It's just better designed, faster to charge your kit, and tells you how it's doing that in the process. That makes it great value and a solid investment at this price point. And it is payday...

With gaming console prices on the rise – which is why I wrote that now's the time to buy a PlayStation 5 Pro – it's interesting to see a Nintendo deal that's bucking the trend.

With just one month to go ahead of the latest Zelda game launch – the remake of Ocarina of Time, which is largely regarded as among the best in the series' history – the Switch 2 console has crashed to its lowest-ever asking price.

Check out the Switch 2 deal here

This happened in the run-up to Amazon's Prime Big Deals Days – a marketing term that you've probably never heard anybody say aloud – with earlier discounts hitting the site ahead of its official 6-7 October dates.

Look at it this way: the Switch 2 has never had a larger discount, especially in light of that recent price rise that saw it rocket beyond the £400 threshold.

The real reason to want the console now, though? It's the incoming Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake that's due out in November.

Check out £5 off the Ocarina of Time on Amazon

Indeed, the saving on this console will cover buying that game 'for free', in effect, which is why I'd action buying now if you've been paused and waiting for a deal.

Sadly, you can't pay for the Switch 2 in instalments via Amazon's sometimes-offered service, meaning you have to pay the full price up front – but a credit card purchase will help you to split that across two months of pay while avoiding any interest.

It's not only the latest Zelda remake that's worth putting on your wishlist, though, with Mario Kart World great fun, Yoshi And The Mysterious Book a genuinely joyous play, and both Donkey Kong: Bananza and Star Fox being a real blast for one or two players.

I've been lucky enough to own a Switch 2 since day one. But if I didn't own the console yet then this deal would make me pull the trigger and buy one. It's well worth it ahead of the Christmas period.

I have been writing and collecting retro gaming devices for many years, and so I find myself scouring online retailers each big sales period for new models to add to my lineup.

That's lead me to check out Amazon once more, as its Prime Big Deal Days sale will start once more – for two days from 6 October 2026 – and I've already spotted a perennial favourite at a great price.

The R36S might not be the most powerful or famous retro gaming handheld out there, but is capable of emulating classic systems up to original PlayStation. I own a couple of them already, in fact.

This particular model comes with many thousands of classic games on a microSD card, so what's not to like at just £25.99? Most other retailers are listing it for at least £39.99.

One thing to note is that as the R36S is such a popular device, whenever I find it for under £30, it gets snapped up sharpish. So be quick with your order – it's unlikely to hit a price lower than this.

Also, while the white model is at the unbelievable price of under £26, you can pay a little more to get the colour of your choice. That includes the great-looking transparent black model for just £1.49 more – at £27.48.

What is the R36S retro gaming handheld and is it worth it?

The R36S is a decently spec'ed gaming handheld with a 3.5-inch 640 x 480 4:3 display. It runs on the Rockchip RK3326 processor, which has been the bedrock of retro gaming devices for a few years.

That means it is capable of playing all the 8-bit and 16-bit games comfortably – such as NES, SNES, Master System and Mega Drive – as well as original PlayStation titles.

You might even be able to eke a bit of PSP or N64 gaming out of it.

Most suppliers include a card filled with dubiously sourced ROMs (the games) and so it comes largely plug-and-play.

It's that time when your wages hit your bank account, meaning we've got a recommendation on what to spend some of that hard-earned cash on.

The Amazon Kindle Colorsoft is now down to $159.99 from its original price of $249.99, which is more than a third off for Amazon Prime Day deals week – and it's never been cheaper.

Check out the Amazon Kindle Colorsoft deal on Amazon.com

I've got one of these e-readers myself, and I'd say the color screen upgrade is well worth investing in – especially now it's significantly cheaper than ever before.

You get covers, illustrations, and photos in color rather than mono, plus you can use colors with your highlights too – which is very handy if you want to categorize different types of highlights and see the differences at a glance.

Reading through e-books on a Kindle couldn't be simpler, with Amazon refining the interface over the years to make it intuitive and straightforward. Something I make use of a lot is the X-Ray feature, which serves up a summary of plot, characters, and locations, so you never get lost (something you can't do as easily if you're reading a paperback).

The high-resolution 7-inch screen that the Kindle Colorsoft sports comes with an adjustable warm light, so you can easily adjust the tint of the screen and you don't need an additional light if you're reading after the sun goes down. It's waterproof too, which means less of a worry if you're taking this to the beach or the park.

An Amazon Kindle, in color

I initially wasn't sure about making the switch to e-readers, but the Kindles I've had – most recently the Colorsoft – have convinced me that this is the way to go. Text size and style can be quickly adjusted as needed, and these devices are just so much more portable than a stack of physical books, which is particularly important when traveling.

So, if you want my advice, you'll get yourself a Kindle Colorsoft while Amazon has it at this super-low discounted price. You can spend some of the money you save on a bit of reading material from the Kindle store – the 16GB of internal storage that this model comes with is enough space to fit in thousands of e-books.

Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders only opened yesterday and we already have a deal on the cover price.

Usually £69.99 in the UK, Amazon has dropped the price of the Playstation 5 version. Order it through Amazon therefore and you'll be paying less than at other retailers.

Admittedly, it's not a massive discount, but you still get 3% off a game that's only been available to pre-order for a day so far. And, as they say, every little helps.

This pre-order is for a physical copy of the standard edition, which will play on both PS5 and PS5 Pro. You do need to be aware though that it doesn't include a disc – you get a download code in the box itself.

There has been a leak suggesting a disc version will be released after launch, around December time, but for now, you'll have to download the game just as you would if you bought it digitally on your console.

You will thought get your pre-order shipped early, with Rockstar claiming the download code in a box versions being sent out on 12 November – a week before the release date. That's to allow you to preload the game so you can play it from day one.

We're keeping an eye out for other GTA 6 deals, which we'll bring you as soon as we spot them. We'll also keep an eye out for PS5 Pro deals, as we suspect that'll be the best way to play the new Grand Theft Auto on release.

So come back to T3 often to find out more.

Amazon's latest deal event has been going on for a few days, and I've been waiting patiently for some decent YETI deals. I had to wait until right at the end, evidently, as I've just noticed that the brand is running a sale on many of its most popular products at 35% off.

Shop all YETI deals on Amazon

The catch is that deals will end at midnight on Friday (supposedly), so you only have about 8 hours left to shop. Hopefully, there will still be some time left when you read this article. If so, quickly check out my top recommendations below.

As an appliance expert, one of the many questions I get is ‘can an air purifier double as a fan’. The quick answer is yes, as some air purifiers offer a nice cooling effect while they’re working to purify the air around you.

In general, I’d recommend looking for an air purifier that states it can also be used as a fan – like the Blueair ComfortPure Air Purifier. As a 3-in-1 device, the Blueair ComfortPure Air Purifier purifies the air and has heating and cooling controls – and it’s now £170 cheaper in this last minute Prime Day deal.

Shop the Blueair ComfortPure Air Purifier deal

Browse the Amazon Prime Day sale

Originally priced at £399, the Blueair ComfortPure Air Purifier is now available for £229.99, giving this premium purifier-fan hybrid a generous 32% discount.

Our reviewer rated it highly in his Blueair ComfortPure Air Purifier review, and commented it offers a decent amount of versatility as “not only does it effectively clean the air, removing smells and particles, but it’s also able to dispense warm air and cool rooms too.”

A lot of the time with hybrid appliances that claim to do three things at once, there’s always one feature that lets it down. That isn’t the case with the Blueair ComfortPure Air Purifier as we found during our testing.

For year round use, the Blueair ComfortPure Air Purifier uses TripleFlow Hot and Cool technology to either heat up your home or cool it down. Its cooling mode has a dual jetstream that allows it to act like a fan and expel a cooling purified airflow. For heating, the Blueair ComfortPure Air Purifier can bring rooms up to 37.7°C.

In terms of purification, the Blueair ComfortPure Air Purifier has a HEPA filter that catches allergens, dust, bacteria, smoke and odours. It’s great for homes with pets, and can purify spaces up to 78m² in as little as 60 minutes. It also oscillates to really cover the room.

Right now, the UK is experiencing an intense heatwave so this last minute deal on the Blueair ComfortPure Air Purifier is a must. Once the weather cools down and it’s inevitably grey and gloomy again, the Blueair ComfortPure Air Purifier can still be used to purify the air and heat things up in the winter.

Ever since I bought my Lenovo Legion Go S (SteamOS) during the Black Friday sales last year, I've used it on a daily basis. More powerful that the Steam Deck and with a larger, 8-inch display, it is a superb PC gaming handheld that can play just about everything I chuck at it.

And, with the Steam Summer Sale underway, even the games are very affordable.

Now you get another change to experience it for yourself, as the 1TB Z2 Go version is available at a rock-bottom price. John Lewis is selling the Lenovo Legion Go S (SteamOS) for just £449.99 – almost £50 off.

If you consider that the Steam Deck starts at £649 for half the storage and a lower-spec'ed processor, it's a no-brainer really.

The 8-inch touchscreen display on the Lenovo Legion Go S also features a 120Hz refresh rate and supports variable refresh rate (VRR) technology. That means it games will run smoothly even if the frame rate jumps around a bit.

And, just like the Steam Deck, the Legion Go S runs on SteamOS, so it works exactly the same way as Valve's own handheld. You get the same experience and can buy games from the Steam Store in the same way.

I bought the step-up model running on the Z1 Extreme CPU myself, which also comes with increased RAM. And while that Black Friday price is not available this time around, Very.co.uk is offering the variant with a very decent £100 off.

That puts it in the same ballpark as the 1TB OLED Steam Deck, but with a vastly superior processor, screen resolution, refresh rate and RAM. Also, that version of the Steam Deck is hard to find in stock.

Whichever model piques your interest, you can be assured you're in for a whole lot of mobile PC gaming fun. I've certainly not looked back since.

There is something romantic about the digital nomad lifestyle, especially if it involves coastlines and vans. One thing every digital nomad needs, though, is a power station to power all your electronics, from phones and laptops to cooking equipment and drones.

Shop all DJI deals on Amazon

DJI only recently entered the power station market, but has already put out a surprising number of units. The Power 1000 v2 is one of the brand's newest models, featuring a 1024Wh LFP battery, seamless UPS, a 10-year lifespan, and a quick-charge function. And now it's £150 cheaper than usual.

The DJI Power 1000 V2 has a 1,024Wh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery with enough capacity to keep everything from laptops and cameras to portable fridges and coffee makers running while you're off-grid.

It delivers up to 2,600W of continuous AC output, meaning it can comfortably power high-draw appliances that many compact power stations struggle to power.

With DJI's rapid charging technology, when plugged into the mains, the power station can recharge from empty to full in around 56 minutes, so you spend less time waiting and more time using it. The station also supports solar charging when paired with compatible panels.

The unit doubles as an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), automatically switching to battery power during a blackout to keep connected devices running. DJI rates the LFP battery for around 4,000 charge cycles before it drops to 80% of its original capacity, which translates to roughly 10 years of regular use.

As you'd expect from DJI, the Power 1000 V2 also integrates neatly with the brand's wider ecosystem. It can fast-charge selected DJI drone batteries directly without needing their standard chargers.

Just in case you hadn't noticed, it's Amazon's annual sale this week – check out the best Prime Day UK deals here – and, amid all the fans and air conditioning units selling out, I've spotted what I think is the best deal of them all.

Shop all Prime Day UK deals here

That's because Amazon is quietly dishing out £20 vouchers – issued completely for FREE – on any basket completions that are over £80. You can then redeem your voucher allocation on any Amazon-sold product throughout July 2026.

But you can probably see the immediate hurdle I encountered: Amazon issues £20 vouchers when you spend over £80 – and £79.99 ain't gonna cut it!

Fortunately, it's not £80 or more on a single item. It's on the total basket, as eligible (some products may not count, if not sold by Amazon).

I've tested this theory, as I added a budget household item that I also needed, tipping the total past £80 by a few quid and – da-nah! – almost immediately after check-out, my £20 voucher code arrived in my inbox.

You do, however, need to ensure you hit the 'Redeem' button to sign up for the promotion – which appears on any product page that's eligible. Otherwise you might bypass this freebie altogether.

7 mistakes to avoid on Prime Day – use these hidden money-saving hacks

I wanted to use it immediately, of course, but as I've said above – it's only valid for purchases in July this year. So you'll have to await next month to kick off (that's only next Wednesday, though, if can you believe it?).

I've already got my eye on some £24.99 movie purchases as part of my 4K Blu-ray Club incentive, which will go a long way in cutting the asking price down to under a fiver.

Yes, you have to spend up front to save, but as this voucher is free, I can't see any downsides. There are terms and conditions, as ever, so you'll need to ensure you're buying an item (or items) dispatched by Amazon direct come July – but I'm sure that won't be an issue.
