When is Amazon Prime Day 2025? Plus best early deals
Exclusive to Amazon Prime subscribers, prices will be slashed across third-party brands like Shark, CeraVe, Elemis and Dyson. There will also be offers on Amazon's own devices – think Kindles, Echo Dot smart speakers and Fire tablets.
In previous years, we've seen plenty of big-ticket products fall to their lowest-ever price, such as the AirPods Pro 2 earbuds, which were reduced to just £179 last year.
While the sale hasn't kicked off yet, there are still countless deals at Amazon right now, and we're seeing more and more each day as we get closer to the sale. Keep scrolling for all the latest details on the next Prime Day sale and our team's selection of tried and tested products for the very best Amazon deals available today.
When is Amazon Prime Day 2025?
Amazon has confirmed that the next Prime Day sale will take place from Tuesday 8 to Friday 11 July. This is the first time the sales event has run for four days, so you'll have even more time to shop the best deals.
What is Amazon Prime Day?
Amazon Prime Day is a four-day sale event for Prime members. It's usually held twice a year – once in the summer and again in October to kick-start Christmas shopping. The event features deals across top brands, from Apple to Dyson, as well as offers on its bestselling own tech, including Kindle and Echo dot smart speakers.
Do you need to be a Prime member?
If you want to take advantage of Prime Day discounts, you must be a Prime member. A Prime membership costs £8.99 a month, or £95 if you pay annually. If you're between 18 to 22-years-old, this is half the standard price, and you get a 6-month trial to see if it's for you. Perks include unlimited one-day delivery, access to Prime Video and the chance to shop Prime-exclusive deals.
However, if you're unsure about adding another monthly cost to your bills, you can sign up for a free 30-day trial. This will give you full access to all the Prime member benefits, and you can cancel at any time during your trial to avoid being charged when it expires. Just bear in mind that this only works if you haven't signed for the free trial before.
How to get the best deal on Amazon Prime Day
Before you shop the Amazon Prime Day sale, make a wish list to avoid buying products that you don't need. Once the sale starts, use price history tools, such as CamelCamelCamel, to see if you're truly getting a good deal or if you should hold off buying until the price goes down even further.
It's also worth doing a quick Google search to see if you can get a better price at other retailers. Competing retailers often reduce the prices of popular products to match, or even provide a better offer, than Amazon. They may also throw in a longer warranty or free delivery.
Best early Amazon Prime Day deals in the UK:
Shark's HydroGo portable fan combines the five fan speeds of the FlexBreeze, which we named our best cordless fan, with a fine mist, thanks to the addition of a 150ml water tank. Our reviewer found that the original FlexBreeze did a 'great job of cooling the air to each side of the unit as well as directly in front of it', so you can expect the same cooling power from this model.
Right now, you can save 24 per cent on the portable fan at Amazon. The price fell at the end of June, so we'll let you know if there are further reductions when Prime Day starts next week.
If you want to invest in an electric fan, this one from Duux, which is also one of our best electric fans, has an impressive 24 per cent off at the moment. The height is adjustable, so you can also use it as a desktop fan, making it all the more versatile. Our reviewer liked 'the natural breeze mode that simulated real wind,' as well as its free app, which allows you to control it from any room in the house.
With 26 different speed settings, you can truly customise just how cool it gets, along with its direction. This will no doubt come in handy over the summer months.
Turning your pillow to the cool side in this heatwave? You need these climate control pillows. Our favourite budget cooling pillows, our tester found that 'The pillow maintained a consistently comfortable temperature without that clammy feeling that often accompanies standard synthetic options.' If you're on a tighter budget, we found that 'these pillows offer remarkable value while delivering genuine cooling benefits that make a noticeable difference to your sleep'.
This Garnier vitamin C SPF50 is one of our senior shopping writer's favourite budget SPF formulas. It's now almost half price on Amazon, arriving just in time to stock up for the summer months. She finds that it 'gives premium formulas a serious run for their money' and is 'easily blended with your fingers' thanks to its gel consistency. However, it's one of Amazon's lightning deals, so you'll need to be quick if you want to snap it up.
We're expecting to see a range of discounts on Ninja's kitchen appliances and cookware when Prime Day lands. Right now, you can save almost 20 per cent on the brand's electric outdoor pizza oven, perfect for summer entertaining, and it's the cheapest we've ever seen it.
We put Ninja's woodfire pizza oven to the test and found it gave us pizzas with a 'lovely charred taste and crispy crust'. This version doesn't come with the option to use wood pellets, but if you can do without that smoky taste, you'll save yourself around £50.
Amazon slashed the price of this Tefal air fryer to £99.99 in October's Prime Day sale, and it's dropped back down to this price again.
Our tester Katie reviewed the XXL model and found that her frozen chips and chicken shawarma cooked 'quickly and evenly'. She also liked its 'easy-to-use controls, the dishwasher-safe baskets and trays, and the family-sized proportions'.
Shark is an Indybest favourite with its vacuum cleaners and hair tools often earning spots in our round-ups. Its anti-hair wrap cordless vacuum is now 36 per cent off at Amazon. It's a good choice, with pet, crevice and upholstery tools that are perfect for tackling messy carpets. We're expecting more discounts from Shark when Prime Day rolls around, so we'll update you on the best deals as soon as they arrive.
If you're looking to upgrade your video doorbell, our best model for digital privacy has a huge 40 per cent off on Amazon. Our reviewer's favourite feature on the video doorbell was its night vision camera, which has 'probably the sharpest and brightest picture' that she's tried.
This is the lowest the Eufy doorbell has ever dropped on Amazon. If it goes out of stock, you can also get it for the same price at Eufy when you use the discount code 'WS24E8222'. However, both are limited-time deals, so they won't be around for long.
If you'd rather go hands-free with your vacuuming, Samsung's jet bot robot vacuum cleaner is at its lowest ever price on Amazon right now.
Our reviewer found that it had 'the most powerful suction of any robot vacuum,' that they tried, plus they appreciated how it 'successfully avoided toys, piles of laundry and whatever else was left out on the floor'. So, if you're looking to invest in a robot vacuum, you'll need to be quick, as stock is limited. We'll make sure to update you if we spot any more bargains on robot vacuums.
Here's a chance to save on Samsung's smartwatch, with a deal on the predecessor to the latest Galaxy watch 7. This version doesn't have as many AI or sleep tracking features, but our tech reviewer said even those familiar with the Galaxy range 'would struggle to tell the difference between them'.
With a 38 per cent discount, we haven't seen the price of the smartwatch drop any lower on Amazon. If there are further reductions when Prime Day lands, we'll make sure to let you know.
Amazon's 32in Fire TV plummeted to its lowest ever price in the last Prime Day sale. While the viewing experience may not be as needle-sharp as a pricier TV set, you can change programmes with just your voice, thanks to Alexa capabilities. There's built-in access to all the main streaming services, including Netflix, Disney+ and Prime Video. Right now, you can pick up the set with a 28 per cent discount, so this inexpensive TV is now even cheaper.
Amazon reduced the price of the latest Macbook Air last month, and now, with a further reduction, it's at one of its lowest prices ever at the online retailer. Our tech critic, David Phelan, praised the 'preposterously slim, sharply designed and appealingly light' laptop after putting it to the test. We've seen some fantastic Apple discounts during Prime Day in the past, so we'll make sure to update you as the best deals drop next month.
Toothbrush deals aren't just limited to Prime Day, as we often spot them throughout the whole year. This electric model is our best budget pick and is currently half price. Tech critic Steve Hogarty said, 'It has everything you really need and none of the frills: it's compatible with the standard Oral-B brush heads, it has a timer with 30-second pacing buzzes, three modes, a pressure sensor and a two-week battery life.' It left him with that classic 'just been to the dentist' feeling.
In his review, Steve explained that Suri's sustainable toothbrushes are designed to be 'more easily recycled or repaired'. Once your toothbrush has reached the end of its lifespan, you can send it back to the brand for free, and they will recycle it for you.
While we can't test these sustainability claims, our reviewer, Steve, was impressed with how the Suri toothbrush performed and liked its 'sleek, slim, and compact' design. With this deal, the brush has a fairly decent discount of 20 per cent off, and we'll be keeping an eye out for more reductions on Prime Day.
If you need a stain remover that lifts tough dirt, you can't go wrong with Vanish oxi action. We put its oxi action whitener to the test and found it 'effective on collar grime and food stains'. This version is better for dark and coloured clothing, as it doesn't include a whitener. However, with more than 50 per cent off, you won't be able to get this 1.4kg pack cheaper elsewhere, even on your weekly supermarket shop.
The stain remover also comes under Amazon's ' You Buy. We Donate ' campaign. When you buy two selected everyday essentials, Amazon will donate a third item to the Multibank charity, who distribute hygiene and household essentials to families in need across the UK.
A favourite among the IndyBest team, Elemis' award-winning cleansing balm has 25 per cent off right now, taking it to less than £37. Our tester noted how their 'skin felt smooth and was left with a velvety texture,' after using it to remove their makeup before bed. They added, 'the luxurious feel and effect of this cleanser make it a great choice for at-home pampering nights'. We'll certainly be stocking up at that price.
This lightweight hair oil from Olaplex can be used as a pre-styling treatment, as it provides heat protection up to 230C. 'It doesn't leave my strands feeling heavy, weighed down,' said our tester. She also found that a little goes a long way and said, 'While the bottle looks decidedly small, from experience, it lasts a very long time'. You can save 20 per cent on the hair oil with this deal. We'll be on the lookout for price drops from the haircare brand as we approach Prime Day.
When we compared the original hydrating cleanser (£10, Amazon.co.uk) to this cream-to-foam iteration, our expert reviewer, Louise, said she was "pleasantly surprised at how rich and creamy the lather felt on [her] skin.' She added: 'If you love the hydrating cleanser but want a bit more make-up removing power and hydration thanks to the amino acids, we'd suggest trying the new version' – especially with 20 per cent off.

Hurrah for the Gen Z youngsters who are taking up drinking
In recent years, my generation (I'm in my 40s) has looked askance at people in their late teens and twenties with their obsession with TikTok, baffling love of grey tracksuits and, worst of all, their refusal to indulge themselves alcoholically. This is especially concerning for Britain's beleaguered drinks industry, which has been reeling from lockdown, tax rises and over-regulation. But could there be light at the end of the tunnel? A new survey from IWSR, a market research company, suggests that Generation Z, those born between 1997 and 2012, aren't as alcohol-phobic as first thought. It suggests that young people weren't abstaining because they're glued to their phones, obsessed with their physical health or worried about making fools of themselves on social media. It's for the good old-fashioned reason of not being able to afford a pint or a G&T down the pub. The problem is that wages have not kept pace with prices. When I first moved to London in 2000, a pint was £2.50 and my first proper job as an assistant at a publisher paid £17,500. I spent most of my twenties in the Golden Heart in Commercial Street rather than in my cramped flat. Today, a similar job will pay £28,000 or less, but it's rare to find a pint under £6. No wonder younger people aren't drinking or going out as we used to, especially as so many places close early to save on energy and staffing costs. Now, as more youngsters come into the workplace and inflation is levelling off, it seems that they have belatedly discovered, just as their ancestors did, the joys of alcohol. Too bloody right. Your twenties are a great time to spend in a boozy haze, making friends, falling into romantic entanglements and not worrying about the future. Perhaps youngsters will give up their apps and return to dating the traditional way: by snogging someone in a bar after a few too many Bacardi Breezers. If you're not boozing during that time, what's the point of being young? The survey showed that 76 per cent of British Gen Zedsters have drunk alcohol in the past six months compared with 66 per cent two years ago. For comparison, it's 79 per cent for my generation. It turns out we aren't so different after all. This is a pattern that is repeated all over the world. Richard Halstead, the head of consumer insights at IWSR, explained: 'The idea that Gen Z drinkers are somehow fundamentally different from other age groups isn't supported by the evidence. For instance, we know that beverage alcohol consumption correlates with disposable income, and Gen Z came of age during a cost-of-living crisis.' For years the drinks industry, faced with falling demand, has pushed for premiumisation – in other words, getting the remaining drinkers to pay more for their booze. Combined with that, many have moved into zero-alcohol drinks like Diageo did with Seedlip – essentially charging through the nose for soft drinks. But if the results of this survey are anything to go by, the main problem with getting young people into pubs or bars isn't some generational crisis; it's affordability. Get the price right and they will come, as Tim Martin has long known. My local Wetherspoons is packed with youngsters on the weekend. Maybe the kids are alright after all.

Rachel Reeves says ‘I was upset but today's a new day' after Commons tears
Chancellor Rachel Reeves was visibly upset during Prime Minister's Questions on Wednesday, stating the next day it was a "personal issue" she would not elaborate on. Despite the emotional moment, Ms Reeves insisted she was "cracking on with the job" when she appeared publicly on Thursday to launch the NHS 10-year plan. 'People saw I was upset, but that was yesterday. Today's a new day,' she said. Keir Starmer publicly defended Ms Reeves, acknowledging he had not fully appreciated her distress during the fast-paced PMQs. The chancellor's emotional display, alongside a £5 billion deficit in spending plans, initially unsettled financial markets, though government bonds rallied and the pound steadied after reassurances about her position. While Labour colleagues defended her, some Conservatives criticised her public show of emotion, suggesting it was inappropriate for a senior leader.

Every Labour U-turn after PM reverses welfare cuts
Sir Keir Starmer has announced his latest U-turn: a £5bn change of course over his flagship welfare bill. With just minutes to go before MPs were set to vote on an already watered down welfare bill, he confirmed plans abandon a key plank of the reforms in order to get them through parliament and avoid a mass rebellion from his own MPs. The U-turn left the prime minister's authority battered and left the chancellor with a gaping hole in the public finances. As Sir Keir marks one year in office, The Independent looks at all the times he has U-turned on his promises or let voters down. Sir Keir suffered the biggest blow to his leadership since coming into power a year ago after he was forced to abandon a key plank of his controversial benefit cuts in order to get them through parliament. Just 90 minutes before voting began, ministers announced that plans to restrict eligibility for personal independence payments (PIP) – which had been the central pillar of the government's reforms – were being dropped. Sir Keir had already been forced into a U-turn the week before when more than 130 Labour MPs signed an amendment that would have effectively killed the bill off. Among the concessions announced then was a plan to impose tougher eligibility rules only on future PIP claimants, leaving existing recipients unaffected. Winter fuel payments In July, the chancellor announced that pensioners not in receipt of pension credits or other means-tested benefits would no longer receive winter fuel payments - a £300 payment to help with energy costs in the colder months. After spending months ruling out a U-turn, the prime minister in May told MPs he now wants to ensure more pensioners are eligible for the payment – something he claimed has come as a result of an improving economic picture. After weeks of speculation over what the changes would look like, it has now been confirmed that 9 million pensioners will be eligible for the payment - a huge uplift from the 1.5 million pensioners who received the payment in winter 2024-25. Grooming gangs Sir Keir spent months brushing off calls for a national inquiry with statutory powers into grooming gangs as unnecessary. As Elon Musk launched himself headlong into the debate, calling for a fresh probe into the scandal, Labour's refusal looked increasingly unlikely to hold. But Sir Keir stood firm, and even accused those calling for an inquiry, including Tory leader Kemi Badenoch, of ' jumping on the bandwagon of the far-Right '. But in yet another screeching U-turn, after months of holding out, Sir Keir in June accepted the recommendation of Baroness Casey to hold an inquiry. In a 2022 interview, Sir Keir said: 'All your working life you've got in mind the date on which you can retire and get your pension, and just as you get towards it, the goalposts are moved and you don't get it, and it's a real injustice. 'We need to do something about it. That wasn't the basis on which you paid in or the basis on which you were working.' But, in a familiar change of tune since becoming prime minister, Sir Keir last year sent his work and pensions secretary out to tell Women Against State Pension Inequality, Waspi women, they would not be getting any compensation. National insurance Labour's pre-election manifesto promised not to increase national insurance. It stated: 'Labour will not increase taxes on working people, which is why we will not increase National Insurance, the basic, higher, or additional rates of Income Tax, or VAT.' But, Sir Keir and Chancellor Ms Reeves used the ambiguity around whether they meant employer or employee national insurance contributions to steamroll the pledge at Labour's first Budget in power. The pair argue that they only promised to keep employee contributions frozen and instead landed firms with a 2 per cent increase to employer national insurance contributions. Tractor tax Farmers have also said they feel betrayed by the PM, after a 2023 National Farmers Union (NFU) speech in which he promised to have 'a new relationship with the countryside and farmers'. Sir Keir claimed to be concerned that 'each day brings a new existential risk to British farming. He added: 'Losing a farm is not like losing any other business, it can't come back.' Going even further, then shadow environment secretary Steve Reed said it was 'desperate nonsense' to suggest he would scrap tax breaks for farmers, just weeks before the July 4 poll. But, in another hugely unpopular Budget bombshell, Sir Keir slashed agricultural property relief, meaning previously exempt farms will be his with a 20 per cent levy on farming assets worth more than £1m. Critics have said it will see family farmers forced to sell up, ripping the heart out of countryside communities. And other times the PM has rowed back on his words... Two-child benefit cap Promising in 2020 to create a social security system fit for the 21st century, Sir Keir said: 'We must scrap the inhuman Work Capability Assessments and private provision of disability assessments... scrap punitive sanctions, two-child limit and benefits cap.' But before the election, Sir Keir said Labour was 'not changing' the Tory policy if Labour were to win power. He has stuck to his guns, even suspending seven Labour MPs for rebelling against his King's Speech in a bid to have the policy scrapped. And now, it looks like the prime minister is gearing up to row back on the position. While nothing has been announced, the prime minister is privately said to be in favour of lifting the cap. He has refused to commit to anything until the child poverty strategy is published in the autumn but has insisted he is 'absolutely determined' to 'drive down' child poverty and has repeatedly sidestepped questions on the issue when pressed on it. £28bn green investment pledge As shadow chancellor, Rachel Reeves announced the party's plans for an extra £28bn a year in green investment at Labour's conference in September 2021. But before the election, Sir Keir ditched the £28bn a year target and said instead that he would spend a far smaller sum on Great British Energy, a national wealth fund for clean investment and pledges on energy efficiency. Bankers' bonuses Strict regulations on bonuses, which limit annual payouts to twice a banker's salary, were introduced by the EU in 2014 in a bid to avoid excessive risk-taking after the 2008 financial crisis. Former prime minister Liz Truss and chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng scrapped the cap in 2022, in a bid to encourage more investment in the UK. Sir Keir had previously vowed to reinstate the cap, saying in 2022 that lifting it 'shows the Tories are absolutely tone deaf to what so many people are going through'. But in another major U-turn, Ms Reeves announced before the election that the party 'does not have any intention of bringing that back'.
