Amazon Prime Big Deal Days starts now – shop the 16 best early deals in the UK
I've picked the top offers at Amazon ahead of Prime Day 2
Amazon is gearing up for its Prime Big Deal Days event on October 8 – 9, which is effectively the second Amazon Prime Day of the year. But you don't have to wait until then to bag a bargain as there are several early deals available now. I've looked through them and picked out 16 of the best offers worth buying now on smart home tech, tablets, headphones, appliances, and more.
• Browse all early deals at Amazon UK
The main highlight is undoubtedly the record-low price for the newest Samsung Galaxy Buds3 Pro. The £60 discount brings the manufacturer's newest earbuds down to £169 only a few months after launch. I think that makes these four-star buds a terrific buy, as they offer excellent audio quality, strong noise cancellation, and a slick design, all at an impressive mid-range price.
Other standout deals that I think are worth adding to your basket include the great value-for-money Tefal Easy Fry Dual Zone Digital Air Fryer for £118.99 (was £179.99), this newest Nespresso Vertuo Next coffee maker for £69.99 (was £150) and the handy Amazon eero Pro mesh Wi-Fi 5 router system for its lowest-ever price of £89.99 (was £189.99).
You can check out more of my picks from today's early offers below, but be sure also to bookmark the main Amazon Prime Day deals hub, as that's where I'll share even more offers from next week's sale across October 8 – 9.
Today's 16 best early Prime Day deals at Amazon UK
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.
Ring Indoor Camera (2nd Gen): was £49.99 now £24.99 at Amazon
This half-price offer gets you an easy-to-install Ring Indoor Camera for a new low price. The Alexa-enabled plug-in security camera features motion-activated notifications, 1080p HD video support, a privacy cover and two-way talk to allow you to see, hear and communicate throughout your home.
Ring Outdoor Stick Up Cam: was £89.99 now £49.99 at Amazon
This early Prime Day deal has the Ring Stick Up Cam on sale for £49.99 – that's a return to the cheapest price we've ever seen. The Alexa-enabled security camera features motion-activated notifications, two-way talk, and can be placed outdoors thanks to the weather-resistant design and a battery life of six to twelve months.
Ring Battery 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.
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.
Nespresso Vertuo Next: was £150 now £69.99 at Amazon
One of the world's best coffee machines is currently on sale this Prime Day so you can enjoy mess-free, barista-style coffee from the comfort of your own home. Today's offer is a return to a record-low price so this is definitely a deal to take advantage of if you're in the mood for a new brew maker and aren't an Amazon Prime member as this offer is available to all.
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.
Anker Soundcore Q20: was £49.99 now £29.99 at Amazon
Here's a super-low price for an impressive pair of cheap noise-cancelling headphones. We awarded them four stars in our Anker Soundcore Q20 review for their excellent battery life, comfortable fit and solid sound quality. Of course, the noise-cancellation can't compete with the high-end options from the likes of Sony and Bose, but considering these are hundreds of pounds cheaper the value for money is undeniable if you need some basic headphones to get the job done.
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.
Huawei Watch GT5 Pro + FreeBuds 5i: was £419.98 now £329.99 at Amazon
The GT5 Pro is Huawei's latest and greatest smartwatch. They might be a little behind some of their competitors when it comes to this style of watch but at this price and with these extras, there are many reasons to consider buying one if you want a stylish and capable fitness tracker. The free earbuds are a great bonus as they retail for £69.99 and deliver high-resolution Sound, offer multi-mode active noise cancellation and boast up to 28 hours of music playback.
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.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE: was £449.99 now £369 at Amazon
An alternative to middle-ground compared to cheaper and pricier tablets is the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 FE. It's a good buy for anyone after better performance and battery life than the cheaper models but are happy to compromise with a lower-quality screen and camera. It's a decent choice for semi-regular users who need an all-around tablet at this new record-low price. However, it is languishing in an awkward middle ground, so if you only need a basic slate or want something high performance you might be better off looking around for something that suits your needs and budget.
Amazon eero Pro mesh Wi-Fi 5 router system: was £189.99 now £89.99 at Amazon
Mesh Wi-Fi systems sound like a fancy and complex bit of tech, but they're effectively just a way to improve or expand Wi-Fi coverage around your home – especially if you live in a larger space. This set gets you three additional routers at a massively reduced price – in fact, this is the cheapest I've ever seen this set following the £100 discount. You can connect these to your existing modem and spread them around your home to eliminate dead zones.
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 and easy-to-use gamepad is 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.
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.
Oral-B iO8: was £480 now £180 at Amazon
Do you need to spend nearly £200 on a toothbrush? Unlikely. However, if you really want to dig into the nitty-gritty of teeth cleaning then this is one of the most advanced options from Oral-B. It sports some handy smart features, including six brushing modes, alerts on the handle and AI brush tracking through a connected app. There are also three toothbrush heads, a head holder and a travel case included for free.
