This story is part of Amazon Prime Day, CNET’s guide to everything you need to know and how to make sure you get the best deal.
Amazon Prime Day officially kicks off in the UK this Tuesday, October 13, and although it’s called Prime “Day,” the sales event offers great prices for two days. Plus, you’ll continue to find bigger discounts on a host of products throughout the week, including technology like smart speakers, Televisions, headphones, cameras and more. Amazon’s own devices (like the Kindle, Echo, and Ring) always offer sure-fire bargains, but you can expect great deals on other brands including Sony, Bose, Toshiba, and many others. As the name suggests, you must be an Amazon Prime member to take advantage of the savings.
But while the big Prime Day sale won’t start until Tuesday, savvy UK shoppers can already find great deals now and get started on their holiday shopping. Take a look at our picks for the best Amazon Prime Day deals below and be sure to bookmark this page as we’ll highlight the best savings on all things tech for the week.
Please note that the prices below assume you have a Amazon Prime Membership (£ 8 per month or £ 80 per year). Prices were accurate at time of publication, but may change without notice. We’ll update this story with the best UK Prime Day deals we’ll find next week.

The Echo Dot is Amazon’s smallest and most affordable smart speaker, making it a great option for adding Alexa voice control to any room in your house, or all of them.

The Echo Show 5 is Amazon’s smallest smart display, using its voice assistant, Alexa, to let you play videos, manage your calendar, display weather reports, and more. At just £ 45, it’s the lowest price we’ve seen.

With an 8-inch screen, the Echo Show 8 offers identical functionality to its little brother, but with a larger screen for more immersive video. Like the Echo Show 5, this discount is the biggest savings we’ve seen on this product.

If you’ve had trouble getting a good Wi-Fi signal in the back room of your house, then a mesh Wi-Fi system might help. By repeating the signal through multiple base stations, your signal can spread much further around your home, providing a faster and 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.
