Early Amazon Prime Day deals are live in the UK – here are 22 offers I'd buy
It's Prime Day eve, and these are the best early savings on top tech
The second Amazon Prime Day sale of 2024 starts in less than 48 hours when the Prime Big Deal Days event begins on October 8. But you don't need to wait until then to bag a bargain as dozens of early offers are live this weekend. I've searched through all the early Prime Day deals and picked out the 22 best offers I'd buy now.
• See all the early deals at Amazon UK
Naturally, many of the early deals are on Amazon devices, which means big savings on Echo smart speakers, Fire TVs, Fire tablets, and Ring doorbells and cameras. It's good news if you aren't a Prime member, too, as most of these are available to all and at record-low prices.
My personal highlights include the Fire TV Stick down to £16.99 (was £44.99), making it a super-cheap way to add smart features to an old TV or upgrade the in-built services for smoother access to your favourite streaming apps and services. There's also a first-time offer that drops the new and improved Ring Video Doorbell to £59.99 (was £99.99) and this five-star rated Nespresso Vertuo Pop coffee maker is down to £59 (was £99.99).
With almost a decade of experience as a deals hunter and seven of those years covering Prime Day, I've selected even more tech offers I think are worth buying below across appliances, tablets, headphones, health and beauty, and gaming. You can also visit my larger Amazon Prime Day deals hub, as that's where I'll add even more offers from next week's sale.

22 best early Prime Day deals at Amazon UK
Nespresso Vertuo Pop: was £99.99 now £59 at Amazon
This single-serve Nespresso machine comes in various fun colours and can brew a large variety of caffeinated beverages. Your order will also come with 30 free capsules, so you can start enjoying delicious coffee right away. Not bad for a cheap and easy-to-use machine for the infrequent or less-fussy coffee drinker.
Blink Video Doorbell + Echo Pop Bundle: was £114.98 now £39.99 at Amazon
With all the different doorbells and cameras and smart devices available to buy it can be hard to know where to start with your first home security setup. Enter this Blink Video Doorbell and Echo Pop bundle (plus the Sync Module to pair them all up) for the low price of £39.99. It's a huge saving of around £75 compared to buying them individually and gives you enough tech to get your setup going inside your home. The smart doorbell can be used to see and respond to visitors at your door, while the smart speaker can send you visitor alerts and perform other smart functions such as playing music, sending you weather alerts and activating other connected devices.
Fire TV Stick: was £44.99 now £16.99 at Amazon
Amazon's standard Fire TV Stick is now the cheapest it's ever been making this is the least expensive way to add or upgrade the essential smart features in your TV, including access to streaming apps in HD, Alexa voice controls and the ability to control other smart home devices. As we said in our Fire TV Stick review, this is a decent option if you're looking to upgrade your streaming setup on the cheap.
Amazon Music Unlimited: free for four months
This limited-time offer for music lovers will give you access to millions upon millions of songs – many in ultra-high-quality audio – for four months at no charge. You'll also get completely ad-free streaming, unlimited skips, and full Alexa device support. If you've been curious about this service, or want to try an alternative to Spotify then now's a fantastic time to check it out. Note, however, that this offer is open to new users only.
Philips OneBlade 360: was £54.99 now £34.99 at Amazon
The Philips OneBlade 360 is a quick, simple and affordable electric razor that's suitable for a wide variety of face and body grooming needs. It's now down to the cheapest price we've ever seen. This bundle includes the handle as well as a spare blade, various combs, and a USB-A charging cable.
Amazon Fire 7: was £49.99 now £29.99 at Amazon
Amazon's entry-level Fire 7 tablet has dropped to a new lowest-ever price ahead of Prime Big Deal Days – and best of all this offer is available to everyone. It's never been close to this low outside of Prime Day so it's a rare opportunity to bag a serious bargain. Of course, it will never compete with the slates from Apple or Samsung, but as a basic device for light browsing, social media and streaming videos it's exceptional value for money. Definitely consider the upgrade to a Fire 7 tablet with 32GB of storage for just £10 more, should you want more space for files and apps and this cheaper model only has 16GB but both do boast a decent 7 hour battery life.
Amazon Fire TV 55-inch Omni QLED Series 4K TV: was £749.99 now £429.99 at Amazon
Amazon's Fire TV Omni QLED Series is a big step up in the otherwise cheap and cheerful range of smart TVs. This set boasts premium features including a QLED display, HDR, Dolby Vision, local array dimming and HDMI 2.1 support to deliver a top-quality picture for all-around viewing and gaming. It's not always easy to find a TV of this size and with these high-end features for around £400, so it's an excellent buy for the budget-conscious without compromising on quality. This offer also beats the previous record-low price by £20.
Ring Video Doorbell: was £99.99 now £59.99 at Amazon
The latest wireless Ring Doorbell has been discounted for the first time since it launched this Prime Day, slashing £40 from its starting price. We've tested more advanced versions and have been impressed with the video quality and night vision colour, but it's a shame that some of this device's value is usable exclusively with a Ring Protect subscription. However, if you're fine with paying for a subscription or already using a Ring-based home security system, it'll be worth the cost.
Oral-B Smart 6 Electric Toothbrush: was £219.99 now £70 at Amazon
Here's one of the more affordable smart toothbrushes from Oral-B that's back down to its lowest-ever price for Prime Day. The app-connected handle allows you to monitor your brushing habits and get advice on how to improve your teeth-cleaning, as well as customise your handle colour. Cool, sure, if ultimately a little unnecessary. You also get three brush heads and a travel case included for free.
Echo Pop: was £44.99 now £19.99 at Amazon
Looking to buy a smart speaker for a small space? This Amazon Prime Day sale includes the all-new Echo Pop for just £19.99. This is the cheapest Echo device you can buy right now and one that we found was a fun, if somewhat basic, option in our Echo Pop review. For the money, however, you get a compact smart speaker with Alexa built-in, so you can play music, ask questions, and check the weather completely hands-free. Note that this one briefly fell to £17.99 earlier but I'd still say it's a decent buy at £19.
All-new Echo Spot: was £79.99 now £49.99 at Amazon
Amazon is back with a brand-new version of its Echo Spot smart clock and it's already slashed £30 off the price for Prime members this Prime Day. As well as a time display and wake-up alerts, this compact bit of kit can play music, check the weather and control other smart devices throughout your home.
Amazon Fire TV 32-inch 2-Series HD Smart TV: was £249.99 now £139.99 at Amazon
Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days sale includes this 32-inch display on sale for a record-low price of £139.99. While the Amazon 2-Series TV is just a basic HD display, you get smart capabilities with the Fire TV experience and Amazon Alexa on board for hands-free control at a bargain price. It's far from the best TV in the world, but if you need something small and basic for the kitchen or a kid's room then this is fine for the job.
Tefal Easy Fry Dual Zone Digital Air Fryer: was £179.99 now £118.99 at Amazon
We haven't tested this model here at TechRadar but Tefal is a respected name in the world of kitchen appliances and this Easy Fry Dual Zone Air Fryer is a bargain at this record-low price. The 8.3L capacity is generous for the price, which is enough for up to eight – or it can be split in two and cook two different foods at once. With eight easy-to-use auto cooking programs, dishwasher-safe components and a compact size it's an excellent buy as your first air fryer.
Kindle Scribe: was £329.99 now £229 at Amazon
The Kindle Scribe has been discounted a handful of times now since its release and this is the cheapest price I've seen so far for non-Prime members – and only £20 more than the record-low if you're a subscriber. It combines some of the best features of the Kindle Paperwhite, such as the glare-free and auto-adjusting display, along with the option to take notes, comment on documents, and doodle using the included stylus pen. Our Kindle Scribe review was down on some missing features that have been added in recent updates, so now this is good value for a multi-functional device.
Ninja Foodi StaySharp Knife Block: was £179.99 now £149.99 at Amazon
I've got one of those AnySharp knife sharpeners to keep my kitchen knives up to scratch but if you want to go all the way with a convenient knife block with a build-in sharpener then this is a great price for a premium set from Ninja. You'll never suffer from dull knives again with this extremely handy kitchen gadget, with its five-piece set of stainless knives and included paring scissors.
Blink Mini 2: was £34.99 now £20.99 at Amazon
The all-new Blink Mini 2 has a couple of nice upgrades compared to the previous model, including an in-built spotlight, night view in colour and the option to use it outdoors with the weather-resistant adaptor. Aside from that it offers the same raft of security features such as motion detection, two-way audio and smartphone app integration. This offer is only the second it's been discounted since its launch in May for non-Prime members and a new record-low price.
Echo Show 8 (2023): was £149.99 now £94.99 at Amazon
If you're looking for a slightly bigger smart home display, Amazon has the latest Echo Show 8 on sale for £94.99 - another all-new record-low price. The eight-inch display allows you to make calls, watch movies, check the weather, and control compatible smart home devices completely hands-free thanks to Alexa compatibility. The addition of room-filling spatial audio gives a big boost to all of these features to improve sound quality.
Xbox Wireless Controller: was £54.99 now £39.99 at Amazon
Multiple colour variants of the Xbox Wireless Controller are now available for £39.99 at Amazon right now – although strangely this doesn't include the basic black and white models. Still, this well-loved, comfortable and easy-to-use gamepad is my personal favourite. It's also compatible with most Bluetooth-enabled devices, such as Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S consoles, PCs, tablets, and mobile phones. This is a good price to bite on as I've only seen these controllers for £5 less in the past, and that was during last year's Black Friday.
Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro: was £219 now £169 at Amazon
The Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 only launched a couple of months ago but you can already save £50 at Amazon. We awarded them four stars in our Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro review, praising the refinement over the previous model with AirPods-like ear sticks, active noise cancellation, an 11mm driver, and AI-powered features like a voice-call booster and a translation tool – providing you have a modern Samsung phone. They look and feel good in your ears, too, with up to five hours of battery life with ANC on so they’re good for your commute or workout.
Amazon Fire Max 11: was £249.99 now £129 at Amazon
The Fire Max 11 is a bold play by Amazon to muscle in on the iPad's more premium turf, with a 2.2GHz octa-core chip (paired to 4GB RAM) which the company claims makes it almost 50% faster than its next-fastest tablet. A sharp 11-inch 1200 x 2000 display, Dolby Atmos audio and up to 14 hours of battery life round out a promising spec sheet. Today's offer is the best yet as it beats the previous record-low price by £5.
Blink Outdoor 4: was £274.99 now £109.99 at Amazon
Amazon has this set of four wireless outdoor security cameras down to a new record-low price for all as part of its early Prime Day deals. You get 1080p HD video, motion detection, and the option of two-way talk through the Blink app. A two-year battery life also means you can have the cameras set up and running for a good amount of time. Of course, there's Alexa compatibility too, so you can see through cameras using your Echo Show or other displays. It's an impressive bundle for the price if you want to get started with an easy-to-use home security system. Or if you want to pay less you can pick up anywhere between one to four cameras starting at £35.99.
