Amazon Prime Day officially kicks off in the UK this Tuesday, Oct. 13, and although it’s called Prime “Day,” the sales event runs for two days. Plus, you’ll continue to find more deep discounts on huge numbers of products throughout the whole week, including tech like smart speakers, TVs, headphones, cameras and more. Amazon’s own devices (such as Kindle, Echo and Ring) always offer sure-fire bargains, but you can expect big deals on other brands including Sony, Bose, Toshiba and many others. As the name suggests, you have to be an Amazon Prime member to take advantage of the savings.
But while the big Prime Day sale isn’t set to start until Tuesday, savvy UK shoppers can already find some great deals now and get a head start on their holiday shopping. Check out our picks of the best Amazon Prime Day deals below, and make sure to bookmark this page as we’ll be highlighting the best savings on all things tech throughout the week.
Note that pricing below assumes you have an Amazon Prime membership (GBP8 per month or GBP80 per year). Pricing was accurate at the time of publication but may fluctuate without warning. We’ll be updating this story with the best UK Prime Day deals we find going into next week.

The Echo Show 5 is Amazon’s smallest smart display, which uses its voice assistant, Alexa to let you play videos, manage your calendar, show weather reports and so on. At only GBP45, it’s the lowest price we’ve ever seen.

With an 8-inch display, the Echo Show 8 provides functionality identical to its smaller sibling’s, but with a larger screen for more immersive video. Like the Echo Show 5, this discount is the biggest saving we’ve seen on this product.

Available with either a battery or as a wired option, this outdoor security cam has a built-in, motion-activated LED light to scare off intruders, while providing a full HD video feed in real time to your phone.
Amazon Eero 3-unit mesh Wi-Fi system: GBP150 (Update: Expired)
Save GBP100
Chris Monroe/CNET
If you’ve struggled to get a good Wi-Fi signal in the back bedroom of your house, then a mesh Wi-Fi system could help. By repeating the signal via the multiple base stations, your signal can extend much further around your house, providing a faster, more stable connection anywhere. This isn’t the fancy new Eero 6 system, but even the older model is a good option at this price.
