Sony WH-1000XM4

Lowest-ever price on Amazon? Yes

Sony WH-1000XM4
  • Over-ear wireless headphones
  • Active noise cancelling
  • Built-in touch controls

We like: Loads of adjustable features and settings

We don’t like: Microphone not the best

The WH1000XM4s are a model below Sony’s latest flagship headphones (the WH-1000XM5s) but they’re still a good choice – especially if you commute or travel a lot.

They were in the Prime Day sale this July, but they’re even cheaper now.

You can control the sound easily through the ambient mode, which turns off noise cancelling and lets in more noise from your surroundings.

See our Sony WH-1000XM4 review.

Apple AirPods Pro (2022)

Apple AirPods Pro (2022)
  • In-ear headphones
  • Active noise cancelling
  • True wireless earbuds

We like: Decent battery life

We don’t like: Compatibility limitations with Android

Touch controls on the stems let you control the active noise cancelling, volume, and change tracks. The headphones are also IPX4 water and sweat resistant – meaning they can handle splashes.

Lowest-ever price on Amazon? Yes

Asus Zenbook S13 UX5304MA
  • Intel Core Ultra 7 processor
  • 16GB Ram
  • 13.3-inch screen

We like: Ultra-portable

We don’t like: Poor webcam in our testing

Clocking in at just over 1kg, this is one of the lightest laptops we’ve tested. It’s also just 16mm at its thickest point, so it should easily slip into most laptop-carrying compartments.

It’s packed with high-spec components, like 16GB Ram and a 1TB SSD. It also sports a 2,800×1,800-resolution OLED screen, which we thought was impressive for such a thin machine.

  • Can hold 0.8 litres of dust

We like: Versatile, generally easy to use

What is Amazon Prime Big Deals Day?

Amazon Prime Big Deals Day is an exclusive sale event that’s only open to Amazon Prime members.

When is the October Amazon Prime Day sale?

Amazon has confirmed that the Prime Day sale will take place on 8 and 9 October, with the retailer promising access to ‘hundreds of thousands of deals’ for Prime members.

A press release shared by the retail giant tells us to expect deals covering LG, Sony, Bose, Shark and Tefal products. It also promises ‘the lowest prices of the year so far’ on selected products from Silentnight.

Previously, the Prime Day sale happened once a year, but since 2022, there are now two sale drops: one in July and another in October.

Starting from midnight on the first day, new deals drop regularly throughout the 48-hour sale.

Amazon Prime Day early access deals

Although Amazon usually saves the majority of its deals for Prime Day, we expect to see early deals appear on the website and mobile app a couple of days before the true sale kicks off.

Last year, the retailer’s ‘early deals’ covered a selection of own-brand products including Echo Dot speakers, Ring video doorbells and Kindle ebook readers.

Is Prime Day only for Amazon Prime members?

Yes, only Amazon Prime members get access to the Amazon Prime Day discounts. This includes Amazon Prime monthly and annual members, free trial members, and Amazon Student and Amazon Household members.

How much is Amazon Prime?

Amazon Prime membership is charged at £8.99 per month, or £95 per year. If you pay annually, you save just over £12 per year. 

Students can get an Amazon Prime membership for 50% less – paying £4.49 per month. If students pay annually, it costs £47.49 per year, saving just over £6.

With a subscription, you get access to Prime Video, plus unlimited premium delivery, among other things.

Get a free trial for Amazon Prime day

If you time it well, you can sign up for 30 days of Amazon Prime for free once the Prime Day sales begin, and then cancel for free before you get charged. If you don’t cancel within the 30 days, you’ll automatically be switched onto a regular Amazon Prime membership and charged £8.99 a month. The trial gets you access to Prime Video, Amazon Music, Amazon Photos and more.

If you’re an UK undergraduate or postgraduate student, you can get six months of Amazon Prime Student for free. You’ll need to prove your course enrollment by providing Amazon with your university email address. After the six months are up, you’ll only have to pay half price for a Prime subscription at £4.49 per month, or £47.79 annually. To get this deal, you must be a new member. After your three years at uni, you’ll be switched to a regular Prime subscription at £8.99 per month.

To cancel your membership before the trial expires, you’ll need to visit the Amazon Prime membership page, choose Manage membership and select End membership.

Amazon scams: beware of fake Amazon calls and emails.

What will go on sale this Prime Day?

Based on what we saw last year for Amazon’s first Prime Day event, we expect the retailer to offer discounts across most of its departments. That includes Electronics, Kitchen appliances, Home & garden, Baby products and Health & personal care.

Back in July 2024, our experts spotted tempting discounts on home products and electronics, including:

  • Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones – over-ear wireless headphones with loads of adjustable features and settings. A great choice for travellers and commuters.
  • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 – A foldable phone that’s large enough to feel like a miniature tablet when open. We like the super fast charging.
  • Ninja Perfect Temperature Kettle KT201UK – With six preset temperatures, this kettle is great for tea fans. It’s speedy and there’s a matching toaster available, too.
  • Oral B iO Series 9 – This smartphone-compatible toothbrush has a pressure sensor and various smart features to help you improve your brushing technique.

How to return Amazon items

If you buy a product on Amazon Prime Day and it arrives on your doorstep damaged, the retailer is fully responsible.

Under the Consumer Rights Acts, your purchase needs to be of satisfactory quality (not faulty or damaged), fit for purpose and as described. If your Prime Day product doesn’t meet one of these requirements, the retailer (not the manufacturer) is in breach of the Consumer Rights Act.

Amazon will refund the cost of sending an item back if it was sold or dispatched by Amazon. If the item you purchased isn’t eligible for a free return, and you’re using a pre-paid return label, Amazon will deduct the cost of the return from your refund.

For expert advice on returning goods you’ve bought online, see our in-depth guide to returns and refunds.

How to recycle your old tech

If you’re looking to replace some older technology by shopping the Prime Day sale, make sure you dispose of your old items in a responsible way.

You have a few options if you want to offload your unwanted electronics. Kerbside collection is suitable for small electrical items – in many cases, your local council will collect smaller items such as toasters and kettles. Alternatively, you can drop items at a local recycling centre.
