Amazon Prime Day 2026 in Australia has officially kicked off, with a whole week of deals and discounts on a wide range of products.

Leading the charge, as always, are Amazon's own devices, with record-low prices of AU$59 on the Fire TV Stick Plus and some steep discounts on Blink and Ring security cameras.

We’ve also seen some fantastic deals from Samsung, Logitech, JBL, Ugreen, Breville and more, with discounts on smart trackers, peripherals, speakers, coffee machines and chargers to name a few.

With so many deals live, I would advise that if you see a deal you like, you might as well grab it now or risk missing out when it runs out of stock later on.

Yes, it’s still called Prime Day, but it’s a week-long event with the sale lasting 7 days, ending at 11:59pm AEST on Monday, July 13. Be sure to arm yourself with a Prime membership because the best prices will be exclusive to subscribers. If you've never tried the service before, you can sign up now and use the 30-day free trial to shop the sale, then cancel if you don't want to pay the ongoing fee of AU$9.99p/m.

Already affordable, these wireless buds get a further 30% discount – equal to the lowest price we've seen before on Amazon. That's not bad considering we rate them 4.5 stars in our Earfun Air Pro 3 review, and they have active noise cancelling, premium aptX sound quality and 45 hours total play time.View Deal

If you're unsure if the a clip-style earbud is for you, then you can try it out with this inexpensive pair from Soundpeats. They've claimed a spot in our guide to the best open earbuds thanks to superb battery life and the fact they support hi-res audio. Admittedly, more expensive pairs do sound better, but you can at least tweak the EQ settings in the app to find a sound that's good for you. View Deal

This is one of the best budget earbuds (even at their original price) you can get today, delivering punchy, detailed sound complete with support for 360 Reality Audio spatial audio. They do miss out on ANC, but otherwise they're a fantastic set of earbuds that prove you don't need to spend hundreds of dollars for great sound. View Deal

These affordable earbuds with ANC are brimming with features, including a range of ANC modes, EQ presets and other audio adjustments. They sound good (but you'll want to tweak it from the default) and they'll last up to 7.5 hours with ANC on before they need a recharge. Check out our Earfun Air Pro 4 review for more info and take advantage of this offer. View Deal

Our 1More Sonoflow review praised the comfort of the headphones, as well as the excellent active noise cancelling and up to 70 hours of battery life. These headphones have been available at around AU$93 before, but I think this is still a good price.View Deal

A 100W charger is a must have for many beefier laptops, or fast charging multiple devices, and Ugreen is a brand we trust. We often see it around this price, but it's still a great buy. View Deal

The best 65W power bank on the market, the 20,000 mAh capacity is perfect for charging a phone, laptop or gaming device like a Steam Deck. It's not too heavy to carry on the go, offers excellent efficiency, and even supports Samsung Super Fast Charging 2.0 up to 45W. It's currently 26% off, and only slightly higher than the AU$55.99 price we saw on Prime Day in July.

Also consider the 100W, 25,000mAh Iniu B63 for AU$76.49.View Deal

Charge all your devices in one brick with this 70W charger from Anker, which can easily charge a 14-inch MacBook Pro from 0-50% in 35 minutes on its own. It's also small and compact at just 53.1 x 42.7 x 31.5 mm, making it perfect for travelling.View Deal

This wireless charger has 15W wireless charging that can simultaneously charge your phone and your earbuds. There's also a 5W USB-C port for charging a smartwatch, too. The display shows charging status through cute graphics that would make it a great gift as well.View Deal

This is the top-scoring 65W power bank in our buyers guide, and the 20,000 mAh capacity is perfect for charging a phone, laptop or gaming device like a Steam Deck. It's not too heavy to carry on the go, offers excellent efficiency, and even supports Samsung Super Fast Charging 2.0 up to 45W.View Deal

An excellent 33% off one of the top-rated options in our best power banks guide. The power bank can charge at up to 145W and has dual USB-C ports plus USB-A. It also does 65W pass-through charging, and is below the flight-safe limit for easy carry-on when travelling.

The more compact 100W / 20,000 mAh version of this power bank is also discounted, and is currently AU$69.99 at Amazon.View Deal

Blitz your morning smoothie and take it to go with this portable blender. Available in several colourways, we found it was capable of blending fruits, seeds and other fibrous veggies really easily in our Ninja Blast review. It won't be able to blend hot liquids, like soup, but you could make some delicious dips. Also available in green for AU$61.20.View Deal

With mouths to feed, sometimes a regular 2-slice toaster just doesn't cut it in the morning. If you have the extra bench space for a 4-slicer, then the Russell Hobbs Addison is a good investment at the lowest price we have seen on Amazon. It's also available in black for AU$69. View Deal

This 42% discount is great value if you need a powerful blender for your liquid breakfast needs. In fact, it will even come in handy if you want to use it as a regular blender to make sauces, dips and small batches of soup. This model has a 900W motor and comes with a single 700ml cup.View Deal

SodaStream is a leading name in sparkling water makers and the Terra is an entry-level model that adds fizz with a single button press. While it has been very slightly cheaper before, this is the lowest price we have seen on Amazon. Not bad considering it comes with the Terra unit itself, a reusable bottle, lime flavouring and a 60L Co2 cylinder.View Deal

The Ninja Creami is great and all, but paying almost AU$300 for an ice cream maker is a lot — but this one from Cuisinart costs only AU$86.99 for Prime Day and also takes a lot less space too! It's a versatile machine that makes ice cream, slushies, milkshakes, sorbets, and mix-ins to truly earn its space in the kitchen. You can even combine up to three flavours with three included dessert cups.View Deal

This drip-style coffee maker lets you wake up to a fresh pot of coffee every morning and it will even keep it warm all morning for those cold days working from home. You can program it to brew at a specific time and even adjust the strength of your brew.View Deal

This little pod machine is very popular among TechRadar's Aussie team. We've had past and present staff say how much they love it, and they'd even buy it at full price. With a very compact footprint and plenty of Vertuo pods to choose from, you'll get delicious coffee at just the press of a button. View Deal

This Ninja air fryer for less than AU$100 shows you can still have a quality appliance for not much cash. The Air Fryer Pro's single basket has a 4.7L capacity, which should feed up to two people and it comes with four presets to get you started on experimentation. The drawer is also dishwasher safe, which makes cleanup easier as well.View Deal

This food processor's biggest drawcard is its small footprint (30cm tall and 16cm wide), making it great for those with smaller kitchens, but it also has a powerful 650W motor to help blitz foods to slice, grate, chop and knead in seconds. This is the lowest price we've seen for the MultiPro Go, and you can read the full review here.View Deal

With Aussie summertime fast approaching, now's a great time to invest in a fan. This Vornado model creates tornado-like air flow that circulates around the room. Note that this is the smallest model in the range, ideal for bedrooms. View Deal

We've not reviewed this exact blender model from Ninja, but we have tested its predecessor, the BN495, which earned a 4.5-star review. This newer model has more power, a larger capacity jug, and Auto-IQ technology that can automatically determine how long the blender needs to run, and what method it uses to pulverise what's inside. It also scores a healthy 53% discount.View Deal

Give your home a doorbell and gain some peace of mind with the Ring Video Doorbell (Battery). As the name would suggest, it has a built-in rechargeable battery, meaning you don't have to have an electrician install it for you. That said, you do have the option of wiring it into your home's electrical system if you so choose. It provides 24/7 video capture in crystal clear 1080p HD and is an easy way to upgrade your home security.View Deal

Amazon's Echo Dot it's a great smart speaker with decent sound and Alexa built-in. It also has motion detection and can measure temperature, which is handy if you have a connected thermostat.View Deal

This is just the previous Fire TV Stick 4K rebranded to a new name. So if you already have the original, there's no need to upgrade, but for a first-time customer, you get Wi-Fi 6 support and a fast processor so you can get to your favourite streaming content that much quicker. All Fire TV Sticks now get you access to XBox Game Pass, so you don't need a console to play if you already have a subscription.View Deal

The more powerful sibling to the Fire TV Stick 4K, the Max offers improved Wi-Fi performance and a faster processor – letting you traverse every major streaming service easily and lag-free. Perfect for those who want a stress-free, high-value addition to the lounge room, all you have to do is plug it in like any HDMI cord. We have seen it AU$10 cheaper before, but this is still a great deal. View Deal

Samsung's answer to the AirTag, the SmartTag 2 works with select Samsung phones to help you find mislaid items. It has a built-in hole for easier attachments, up to 700 days of battery life and it's water-resistant. If you're always losing stuff, this is a worthy investment.View Deal

Want to open your garage with your voice, or by a tap of a button in an app? This garage door opener connects with most smart home ecosystems — Alexa, Google Home, Samsung SmartThings and even Apple HomeKit. This unit supports up to 3 single doors.View Deal

The Echo Spot is a compact smart speaker that provides surprisingly vibrant sound. It works as an alarm clock, showing or telling you the time whenever you need it. Alexa functionality means you can ask it about the weather, the latest news or to play music – and it’ll also control your smart home. This offer is equal to what we saw in July for the original Prime Day. View Deal

If you want a cheap and basic Bluetooth speaker, then you can't go wrong with this Anker Soundcore 2 for just over AU$50. Sure, it's not going to give you the biggest and boldest audio quality, but it's still a solid option at an affordable price. Battery life is an impressive 24 hours, too, so it's great to use around the home or take it with you when on the go.View Deal

Bluetooth speakers don't come more portable than the JBL Clip 5. It has a built-in carabiner clip that can latch onto virtually anything you wish, and despite its small size, it's capable of putting on a loud, lively sound. Extra features include an IP67 waterproof rating and an adjustable EQ. View Deal

The JBL Grip plugs the gap between the smaller Clip and formidable Flip. It's a compact speaker that delivers a big sound, offers impressive protection against dust and water and has some nifty LED lighting on its rear. The Flip 7 is still our top recommendation, but with the Grip current equal to the lowest price we have seen, it's a great buy. View Deal

This pocketable speaker punches above its weight with surprisingly solid sound and is small and tough enough to toss in a bag. Check out our Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 4 review for the full scoop. Just as importantly though, this discount is the best deal yet on Amazon. You can grab it in Pink at this price, while Black and Blue are very slightly more.View Deal

Are your laptop or monitor speakers just not good enough, but you also don't have enough room for bookshelf speakers on your desk? This under-monitor soundbar from Aussie brand BlueAnt just might be what you're looking for. It has 120W power for rich sound and deep bass, and you can connect via Bluetooth for a cleaner wireless look.View Deal

Just AU$2 more than its July price, the JBL Flip 6 has been one of the best Bluetooth speakers you can get. It serves up everything you could need from a portable speaker, namely a fun, engaging sound, up to 12 hours of battery life and the ability to daisy chain with up to 100 other Flip 6 speakers!View Deal

Sure, it's a wired controller, but this gamepad is simple to use and durable, with drift-free hall effect analog sticks. In fact, the base of the sticks also have RGB, which is fantastic at this price. Being wired, however, means this isn't ideal for couch play, but if you're a PC gamer at your desk, it'll do wonderfully well.View Deal

This classic Logitech gaming mouse was my favourite when I still had a gaming PC at home, and it still holds up well. It has extra customisable buttons to optimise your gameplay and the ergonomic shape ensures you stay comfortable during long gaming sessions.View Deal

Don't care for the typewriter design of the standard POP keyboard? That's okay, because there's a cheaper version without it. This keyboard comes with a three-year battery life (off two AAA batteries) and a low-profile design. We loved it in our Logitech POP ICON Keys Wireless Keyboard review, though we would have liked the ability to change the typing angle.View Deal

Wish your Steam Dock came with a dock like the Nintendo Switch? Ugreen has you covered with this 6-in-1 docking station with a built-in stand to let you play your handheld PC on your TV at home. This also supports the ASUS ROG Ally X, Lenovo Legion Go and other similar devices.View Deal

Not the cheapest price (that was AU$69), but this ergonomic vertical mouse is perfect for small hands and it encourages better posture, thus reducing aches along the wrist, shoulder and shoulder blade. I use it myself (I have the white colourway) and can't recommend it highly enough, even at full price. Please note that this offer is only on the black model for PCs; there's currently no good price for the Mac alternative.View Deal

Logitech's G502X upgrades over the G502 above, featuring a lighter chassis, new Lightforce hybrid optical-mechanical switches and a redesigned scrollwheel.View Deal

The best portable mouse in our view, the Logitech MX Anywhere 3S packs in more features and functions, such as side buttons and a scroll wheel with two resistance levels. Read our Logitech MX Anywhere 3 review.View Deal

This is the keyboard I use in the office and it's a very comfortable and responsive (for a membrane keyboard at least) one at that. It has a backlight and a lot of customisability via the Logitech Options software, and its small form factor makes it great for travelling. Read our Logitech MX Keys Mini review here.View Deal

A 100Hz-refresh-rate monitor for just AU$100? Sign me up! This display from Lenovo may be a bit small at under 24 inches with a 1080p resolution, but it uses IPS technology for sharp image quality. This is price is the lowest we've seen this monitor go on Amazon.View Deal

Logitech's Pebble 2 mouse and keyboard combo is a worthwhile starter pack of Mac accessories, with these aesthetically-pleasing gadgets bundled together and available at an attractive price. Both connect via a Bluetooth dongle and are super thin, making them great for taking on the go. View Deal

This dock has 10 connectivity options — 2 HDMI ports, a 100W USB-C power delivery port, a 5Gbps USB-C data port, a 5Gbps USB-A data port, two USB-A 2.0 ports, 1000Mbps Ethernet, and SD/TF card slots. It's also small enough not to take too much desk space. This doesn't have DisplayLink, so you may have to look elsewhere if you have an older Mac and you need more than one extra monitor.View Deal

If you're on the hunt for an affordable fitness tracker, you can't go wrong with Xiaomi's Smart Band 10. It has 150 fitness-tracking modes and some pre-programmed running workouts, and it can also measure sleep, stress and calories burned, with GPS data collected from your connected smartphone.View Deal

For a simple fitness tracker that keeps going for 14 days, AU$64 is a bargain. One of the Band 11's biggest strengths is its sophisticated health features such as arrhythmia analysis and sleep apnea monitoring. It's also a very smart looking watch, without the setback of a premium price tag. Read our full Huawei Band 11 review here.View Deal

This smartwatch features a vibrant AMOLED screen, a battery that lasts 24 days without charging, and built-in GNSS for activity tracking, the Xiaomi Redmi Watch 6 is unbelieveable value at just under AU$100.View Deal

Amazon is listing this lightning deal as a 15% discount, but trust me when I say, it's way better than that. We're big fans of the CMF sub-brand, with the phones and audio gear some of our fave budget buys, but it's nice to see an affordable and yet very capable smartwatch going for less than AU$100. Be quick, though, as this deal is for very limited stock and disappears once it's all claimed.View Deal

If you're after a really good electric toothbrush that won't cost an arm and a leg (or some teeth), then this is it. It's an entry-level oscillating brush, which means it rotates at fast speeds and may not be ideal for people with sensitive or bleeding gums as that movement can be harsh, but it sure does remove a heck of a lot of plaque and keeps your teeth healthy. View Deal

The Dreame Gleam hair dryer is an even more affordable alternative to the bigger brands. Its motor spins at a mighty fast 110,000 RPM for fast airflow and quick drying, plus built-in ion technology results in smooth, shiny hair. Not to mention, the slim, lightweight build makes it comfortable to hold. View Deal

There is excellent value for money here as this one tool will take care of hair anywhere on the body. It comes with 15 attachments and offers 26 hair length settings. Its battery life also promises to be just as good – up to 4 weeks on a single charge. It also happens to be waterproof. That's a lot of personal grooming for not a lot of money.View Deal

This oral irrigator has 2 flossing modes with 3 intensities, and it comes with 2 nozzles, meaning it can use the power of a thin jet of water to get into the hard-to-reach gaps between your teeth. And it promises to do that in just 60 seconds. It's cordless, so you can travel with it, plus it tops up easily using any USB-C cable. Oral hygiene doesn't get easier than this.View Deal

While Philips' DiamondClean series brushes are premium, the ProtectiveClean ones are a little more affordable – they're both sonic brushes though, so gentler on the gums. This particular model has a handy feature that will remind you when you need to change the brush head. It also has a pressure sensor to tell you if you're pressing too hard.View Deal

If all you need is a simple brush that will give you a good blowout, check out this 29% discount. Our friends over at Who What Wear were pleasantly surprised by the hair tool and reviewers were left with shiny, frizz-free styles that lasted all day. While it's not the lowest price we have seen, it's still definitely a worthy buy.View Deal

I was having a merry old ride around this board until the final word and spangram slowed me down to a standstill.

Spangrams like IGETAROUND really are my nemesis and I came close, but not that close, to using a hint, but thankfully saw the unseasonal SLEIGH just in time before I disappeared into a letter-soup haze.

As is often the case with five-vowel games, this was a tricky.

It took me an age of experimentation and head scratching before I finally saw KIOSK after putting the three letters I knew in the I-O-S order and seeing if anything would fit either end. What a relief to get there in the end!

Hopefully it wasn’t as painful for your noggin as it was for mine.
