Amazon Prime Day is returning in Singapore in the form of Big Deal Days, another Prime-exclusive event that will lead us nicely into Black Friday.
Amazon has confirmed Prime Big Deals will be taking place in October, but is currently keeping tight-lipped as to the exact dates. We can of course speculate, based on previous versions of the same sale, and take a guess it will be two days long and land in the second week of October. We'll be sure to update this page as soon as Amazon reveals all.
Indeed, we don't think Prime Big Deals will be as long as the six-day deals extravaganza we saw for the main Prime Day sales event in July, but we've been wrong before.
What we are confident in saying, however, is that Prime Big Deal Days will be another great opportunity for Amazon Prime members to score some great deals on a range of tech, including headphones, Bluetooth speakers and mobile phones, along with a range of home appliances such as air fryers and coffee machines, to name but a few.
As mentioned, you'll need to be a Prime member to take advantage of the deals, and if you've yet to sign-up for a subscription, you can grab a a 30-day free trial right now.
Be sure to check back on this page for regular updates, including the all-important dates and, when the sale does come around, this will be the place to find the best deals.
Amazon Prime Day 2024: all you need to know
When is Amazon Prime Day?
2024’s Amazon Prime Day will run from 12am SGT on Tuesday, July 16 until 11.59pm SGT on Sunday, July 21 2024. That's a whole six days of shopping time, longer than we've seen before in Singapore. Amazon Prime Day in 2023 only ran for 63 hours in total, thanks to deals being made available via international stores, where Prime Day sales were still taking place.
Will there be another Prime Day in 2024?
We don't know right now. In 2023, there was a second Prime Day held in October, called Prime Big Deal Days. There's no official word about this second Prime Day sale being held in 2024 though, so it could mean July's six-day Prime Day sale will be the biggest and best chance of scoring some major discounts.
How do I become a Prime member?
1. Go to Amazon Prime
2. Select: Start your free trial
3. Follow the instructions
4. Start browsing deals
To make the most of Prime Day deals including exclusive discounts and free shipping on eligible products, you’ll need to be an Amazon Prime member. Singapore has one of the most affordable Amazon Prime subscription costs in the world, though it does come at the cost of a few features the US, UK and Australia are privy to.
Still, for SG$2.99 a month, Singaporean shoppers get access to all the offers in Amazon Prime, including free delivery, access to Prime Video and all the shows and movies available in Singapore, plus Prime Gaming. If you’re a new member, you even get a 30-day free trial to test the service out, but we recommend waiting until October if you plan to use Amazon Prime exclusively for the Prime Big Deal Days sale.
What were the best deals from Prime Day 2023?
Want to see what was on offer during the Amazon Prime Day sale back in July? We’ve rounded up the top five deals from the last sale below:
LG B3 55-inch OLED TV (OLED55B3PSA) | SG$3,499 SG$2,399 (SG$1,100 off)
During July’s Prime Day sales, there was a total saving of SG$1,100 available on the LG B3 55-inch OLED TV. As part of LG's 2023 OLED TV range, the LG B3 55-inch TV was quite a bargain for a TV that offered up a 120Hz refresh rate on its 4K OLED panel. Its features make it a good option for gaming, but it only sports two HDMI ports so that’s something to keep in mind.
Echo Dot (5th Gen) with Clock | SG$101.30 SG$48.60 (SG$52.70 off)
An exclusive deal for Prime members, there was a massive 52% discount on the Echo Dot (5th Gen) with Clock through the Amazon US store. Boasting a stylish, spherical design, this smart speaker comes loaded with Alexa, Amazon’s own voice assistant which will set times, change music and even make phone calls with simple voice commands.
Amazon Kindle (2022, 16GB) | SG$196 SG$97.15 (SG$98.85 off)
The 2022 Kindle picked up a nice 50% discount during the 2023 Prime Day sale, though you had to buy it through the US global store. It might be a super compact ereader with a 6-inch E Ink display, but it does boast a nice 16GB of storage so you’ll be able to carry your library with you wherever you go. Plus, it packs in up to 6 weeks of battery and charges via USB-C too, so you won’t be left without it for long.
Bose QuietComfort 45 headphones | SG$499 SG$339 (SG$160 off)
Boasting a lightweight and comfortable design, the Bose QuietComfort 45 headphones picked up a SG$160 discount back in July. This wasn’t a Prime exclusive deal either, and a bonus SG$40 coupon brought these cans with great ANC down to just under SG$340 during the sale.
Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max (128GB) | SG$1,799 SG$1,489 (SG$310 off)
Apple’s iPhone 14 Pro Max picked up a big 17% discount in Prime’s exclusive deals back in July. We think it’s one of the best phones out there, and our review found that it features a premium design and build with incredible camera quality – earning it a great 4.5 star rating.
