Thanks to Amazon Prime Day, Apple’s wildly popular AirPods Pro 2 earbuds have fallen to just £179, the lowest price they’ve ever been. I’ve been covering Black Friday for years and this Prime Day deal has blown the former’s Apple deals out the water.

If you need further convincing to invest, our tech critic has more details below.

The AirPods pro earbuds offer a “significant improvement over the already-splendid first-generation model,” praised our tech critic David Phelan in his review. “The case now includes Apple’s U1 chip, which means you can use the Find My app on your iPhone, say, to locate it when you’ve misplaced it,” he added.

They also featured in our review of the best wireless earbuds, with our tester noting they “fit the ear well and stay put securely, and there are now four sizes of silicone ear tips to ensure decent sound isolation”.

Some of the best discounts during Prime Day can be found on tech. Case in point: this impressive saving on a Google Pixel 8 pro phone, as recommended by our tech expert.

Discounted by 30 per cent, Google’s flagship Pixel 8 Pro is one of the best smartphones our tech writer Steve has ever tested. “This year’s Pixel phones go hard on fancy generative AI features, but underpinning all of Google’s software cleverness is an excellent device boasting a significant hardware upgrade over last year’s model,” they said in their review.

“With a telephoto lens and extra RAM, as well as a Tensor G3 processor, AI-fuelled photo editing features and a glorious 120Hz display, it’s the Android device to beat.” I’m sold.

Taking the hassle out of cleaning your home, I’ve had a robot vacuum on the wishlist for a while – but they don’t come cheap. Prime Day has only just begin but I’ve potentially found the best deal on a model already. Reduced by more than 50 per cent, this Eufy model is tried and tested, and just over £100.

When it comes to vacuum cleaners, suction is vital. In our round-up of the best robot vacuum cleaners, our expert tester noted that the Eufy robovac 15c has “good suction for the price, and handles dirt and dust on hardwood floors and medium-pile rugs with ease.”

If you have a mix of floors in your home, “the sensors can tell when the robot moves from carpet to hard floors and adjusts the suction strength to suit the situation.” The robot’s compact, slim 7.2cm height also allows it to glide under furniture effortlessly, tackling areas that you’d otherwise have to bend down to reach.

Good morning shoppers, Amazon’s flagship sale event is back for another year – and it’s already shaping up to be the biggest Prime Day yet.

So far, we’ve got the lowest prices ever on Apple Airpods and mega savings on beauty brands like Colour Wow and Olaplex – plus deals on Ninja airfryers, Lego and Simba mattresses.

I’ll be sharing the top deals all-day as they drop in this blog while our guide below features the crème de la crème of Prime Day offers.

If there’s one home appliance we really can’t live without, it’s a good quality vacuum cleaner. While hoovering may be an unavoidable chore, there’s nothing quite like knowing you’ve made a saving on a quality gadget that makes light work of dealing with daily grime, and makes it faster too.

The good news is Amazon Prime Day is here, bringing with it a host of vacuum cleaner deals that will ensure you can keep your floors spick and span for less.

If you’re hoping to tackle your next home improvement project with some discounted tools, you’ll be pleased to know that the Prime Day sale already has some stellar savings on power tools.

When it comes to power tools deals, the retailer has sliced the price of lawnmowers, pressure washers, home and garden tool sets and more. We’ve seen major players such as Ryobi, Bosch and Kärcher with prices slashed – and we’re hoping more deals drop throughout the event.

Deal hunters, Amazon Prime Day is here and it’s the perfect chance to snap up a discounted mattress.

Myself and the IndyBest team have been covering the Amazon Prime Day since it started in 2015. We’ve been plucking out discounts and tracking prices for years, so, we know when something’s a good deal and when it’s a dud.

True to form, we’ll be highlighting the very best deals on all the most sought-after products in this non-stop liveblog, every waking (and sleeping) hour of the 48-hour sale.

To get prepared, if there are any items you’re desperate to get your hands on, we recommend adding them to your wish list ahead of time, so you can check out more quickly when the sale rolls around. It’s also worth downloading the Amazon app – the retailer will continue to drop “lightning deals” throughout the sale, and these are only around for a few hours at a time. You can also set up alerts, so you’re pinged when a discount goes live.
