Don’t look now, but Christmas is now less than three weeks away! If you haven’t managed to get all of your gift shopping done yet, don’t fret – there’s still time to get your list checked off and have your prezzies arrive before the day itself.
If you’ve been looking at your bank account and dreading holiday shopping, you’re in luck too, as Amazon has some bonanza opportunities to save on top-quality Christmas gifts this year.
So to help spare you some of the chaos that is holiday shopping, we’ve picked out the hottest deals we could find on some of the best gift options for Christmas below. If you can’t find what you’re looking for below, we also have a guide with more Christmas gift ideas.
Oral-B iO Series 6 smart toothbrush
When we got our hands on this entry into Oral-B’s impressive series of iO smart toothbrushes, we were mighty impressed – with our review saying, “The Oral-B iO Series 6 strikes an excellent balance between features and price”.
And ahead of Christmas, that price manages to get even better, making it a potential game changer.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro
There is no shortage of options to choose from when looking at headphones and wireless earbuds. That means that knowing which options are the best of the bunch is important, especially when you’re looking to earn brownie points around Christmas time. That’s where the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro comes in.
Not too long ago, Samsung’s earbud offerings were mostly known for being underwhelming when stacked up against the various other areas of tech where Samsung has excelled.
That was finally made a thing of the past with these quality buds, with our review finding the only notable negative being battery life – a known issue for most earbuds on the market. So to say we’re pleasantly surprised to see this kind of discount on the impressive buds ahead of Christmas is an understatement.
Fitbit Versa 3 smartwatch
While it might now have been surpassed by a successor in the Fitbit Versa 4, the Fitbit Versa’s third generation hasn’t lost a single step in terms of sheer value – hence its place in our list of the best smartwatches money can buy.
In fact, our review of the newer Versa 4 found that it largely failed to make any improvements on the Versa 3, which its higher price hard to justify. That leaves the Versa 3 as arguably the best Fitbit money can buy.
And as a gift almost guaranteed to be warmly received when unwrapped on Christmas morning, the Fitbit Versa 3 gets even better thanks to this generous discount.
Save on gaming controllers
If you’re buying for someone at Christmas this year who is lucky to own a next-gen gaming console, there’s one surefire way to put a smile on their dial and that’s by prolonging the life of their gameplay with a new controller.
As impressive as the next-gen consoles are, with all of that power comes a substantial drain on controllers, particularly as the likes of haptic feedback and integrated audio now feature beneath the joysticks.
Luckily, there’s opportunities to save on controllers for both of the major consoles this Christmas. Handy savings on controllers for the PlayStation 5 lead the charge, with discounts up to 22% on the PS5 DualSense wireless controller.
For Xbox gamers (or PC gamers), the battery concern for their controllers might be slightly less than the concern experienced by those with the latest PlayStation, but a new controller can still be a welcome gift – especially if you want to add a second person to a local game.
Instant Air Fryer 4L
The beauty of an air fryer as a gift at Christmas time is that it’s the type of appliance whoever you’re buying for might not necessarily realise that they need or want, but will come to love once they add to their culinary routines. And the value of that is even greater when it comes with an opportunity for you to save, such as with this top notch 4L air fryer.
Discounted by 42%, this reliable air frying option from the consistently excellent Instant Pot line of air fryers drops below AU$100 – representing a unique amount of gift value at its price point.
