Best Amazon Singapore deals May 2024: score big discounts on tech, appliances and more

Seagate BarraCuda 8TB internal hard drive (ST8000DM004) | SG$259 SG$193 (save SG$66)

Ok, so internal hard drives may have been somewhat superseded by internal SSDs, but prices for hard drives are a lot cheaper and when they come with storage as huge as the 8TB on offer here, we're certainly going to take notice. If your PC is in need of a mega storage upgrade, look no further. In fact, we named the Seagate BarraCuda the best overall hard drive in our in-depth round up, thanks to its great value proposition and fast read speeds. We have seen this 8TB model drop to a lower price in recent weeks, but if you missed out, you still have chance to snap one up with a saving attached.

AMD Ryzen 5 5600X processor | SG$396 SG$205 (save SG$191)

A great price here on a well-performing AMD Ryzen processor, that is ideal if you're planning to build a mid-spec PC on a limited budget. It does miss out on integrated graphics, meaning you'd have to buy a separate GPU, but from a CPU standpoint, it performs admirably considering its price. We made that remark in our AMD Ryzen 5 5600X review, and so now it's on the receiving end of a decent discount at Amazon SG, it makes it even easier to recommend. 

Logitech M330 Silent Plus Wireless Mouse | SG$32 SG$21 (save SG$11)

Changing out your computer mouse may be something you don't often think of doing, but it can bring with it a raft of benefits. This Logitech M330 wireless mouse promises near-silent operation, a crazy-long two-year battery life and an ergonomic design...if you're right-handed. For just a smidge over SG$20, it could entirely change how you interact with your PC. 

Tribit Stormbox Micro 2 | SG$129 SG$76.50 (save SG$52.50)

In our Tribit Stormbox Micro 2 review, we said it was the "best-sounding and most fully-featured mini Bluetooth speaker we've had the pleasure of testing." Even now, with a few other miniature and affordable Bluetooth speakers entering the market, the Stormbox Micro 2 is still one of the best money can buy. Bass levels are great for the size, it can go surprisingly loud and most crucially, it can do so without becoming distorted. It really is remarkably good. 

Skullcandy Rail ANC in-ear headphones | SG$180 SG$96 (save SG$84)

We did see the price of these Skullcandy in-ears drop to below SG$50 recently, so it's a shame to see their price increasing somewhat. But at nearly half price, they're still a great buy. They offer active noise cancellation, a 38 hour battery life according to Skullcandy's official Singapore website (Amazon quotes 27 hours), IPX4 sweat and water-resistance, and Skullcandy's Mini sound personalisation technology. An absolute no-brainer if you ask us. 

Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker | SG$299 SG$179 (save SG$120)

We can't think of many speaker brands that have such an iconic look as Marshall's.. The guitar amplifier extraordinaire has a real flair for style, and that's certainly evident here with the Emberton II Bluetooth speaker. It's not all style and no substance either, as the Emberton II delivers a nicely balanced sound from its diminutive body. Some may wish it went a bit louder (up to 11) but on the whole this is a Bluetooth speaker we guarantee you'll be happy with...especially because it has a mammoth 30 hour battery life. 

JBL Charge 5 | SG$285 SG$179 (save SG$106)

The JBL Charge 5 is one seriously powerful portable Bluetooth speaker. Not only does it deliver a clear, detailed and booming sound, but it doubles up as a portable charger for your devices. A full charge is good for 20 hours of playtime, although expect this to drop if you do use it as a charger, and it's also IP67 rated for protection against water and dust. Be quick to grab this, as stock is limited.

Samsung Galaxy Buds2 | SG$248 SG$106 (save SG$142)

If you own a Samsung phone, then pairing it with a pair of Samsung's own headphones is a logical choice. The Galaxy Buds2 on sale here are an affordable and reliable option, offering ANC, a well-balanced audio performance and decent call quality. They're not quite as impressive as their Pro sibling, but if you're on a limited budget, they're easy to recommend. 

Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro |  SG$334 SG$237 (save SG$97)

If you do want to get the more feature-packed and ultimately better-performing Galaxy Buds 2 Pro, then they're also on sale at Amazon SG. We did see them getting a SG$120 discount recently, but this SG$97 saving still makes them worthy of consideration. They deliver more effective ANC, have a richer and fuller sound and are IPX7 rated against water. If your budget can stretch, they're the ones we'd recommend. 

Shure SE846 Pro Gen 2 Professional Sound Isolating Earphones | SG$1,499 SG$861 (save SG$638)

We're well aware that SG$861 could be considered an awful lot of money for a pair of in-ear headphones, but this pair of in-ears aren't quite like your everyday lifestyle pairs. Plus, when they've received a substantial SG$631 saving, it could be the best time to grab a set. Our colleagues at MusicRadar said they deliver outstanding detail and clarity thanks to four high-definition drivers splitting the audible frequency band between them. With some extra components, they can also transform into a wireless pair and connect to source devices via Bluetooth. If you truly value your music listening experience, this pair of Shure in-ears will take it to another level. 

PlayStation 5 Slim digital console | SG$799 SG$655 (save SG$144)

The PlayStation 5 continues to attract gamers in their droves, and for good reason. It's an incredibly powerful games console and is easily the best of the current generation. The Slim version on sale here has shaved some weight off the original console's proportions, yet kept the same power. It's the digital edition too, so you can't insert discs, but if you get yourself a PlayStation Plus subscription to download your games, then you'll hardly be missing out.

DJI Mini 3 | SG$799 SG$706 (save SG$93)

A small but welcome saving on a fantastic drone here in the DJI Mini 3. If you're in the market for a drone and all you want to do is take some good quality shots from up high, this is the tool for the job. It's truly Mini by name and mini by nature, and as a result, is also incredibly lightweight, making it easy to carry around with you. Image quality is excellent, too, but our only slight niggle is that 4K video is only shot at 30fps. Otherwise, there's very little to fault. 

Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 | SG$448 SG$229 (save SG$219)

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 gets a huge SG$219 saving for a limited time. We've also noticed there aren't many left in stock, so be sure to snap one up while you can. This deal is on the 40mm graphite model, which is a good size for most wrists. You don't get the rotating bezel found on the Classic model, but it's not all that useful anyway. This is a much cleaner watch that is a great companion if you own a Samsung phone.

Amazon Kindle Oasis | SG$538 SG$273 (save SG$265)

Amazon's most premium ereader serves up a large, high-quality screen that is a joy to read on, especially thanks to its automatic brightness setting, which even extends to warmth of the light. It feels every bit as premium as its asking price suggests, too, thanks to an all-metal build and it'll happily survive a splash of water thanks to an IPX8 rating. You can connect Bluetooth headphones too to listen to audiobooks and of course, you get built-in access to the Amazon Kindle store. It is still expensive we admit, but if you want the most premium ereader, this SG$265 saving makes it one of the best chances to get it for less.
