Amazon Prime Day is almost here, so of course, several of the most popular and best-selling Amazon devices are already discounted ahead of the big sale. There are already offers of up to 65% off Echo, Fire TV, Ring, Blink, and more, so I've had a look through and picked out the top 16 deals.
I think of the no-brainer basket-fillers and an easy Father's Day present: this Amazon Smart Plug for $12.99.
Sure, you might not think of it as the most glamorous item or gift, but it can be incredibly handy around the house, especially when paired with a device that adds smart features. Set a timer for lights or a routine for when you want your coffee machine to turn on, and much more.

Even if you don't have a house full of smart devices, this handy little gadget from Amazon can add smart capabilities to attached tech such as timers, schedules and voice controls. It also works great with other Alexa devices, such as the Echo Dot or Echo Show. Now almost 50% off and back to its lowest-ever price, it's a super useful and cheap addition to your basket.
The Amazon Echo Dot is down to
Amazon's Echo Spot is a solid smart alarm clock that pairs a 2.83-inch touchscreen with a 1.73-inch front-firing speaker. With Alexa onboard, you can ask the assistant for the weather, play music, or, of course, schedule alarms. This Prime Day deal matches the previous record-low price we saw during Black Friday.
Whether you want more advanced features like Lossless High Definition audio and Automatic Room Adaptation, or just love the idea of a more premium-looking speaker with faster Alexa responses, the Echo Dot Max is a great choice. This deal for Prime Day is a new record-low price.
Amazon's best-selling Echo Show 5 is down to $59.99 for Prime Day. The latest version of the Echo Show 5 features a compact 5.5-inch display but packs impressive sound with deeper bass and clearer vocals. Voice controls are enabled through Amazon Alexa, while you can use the smart screen to listen to podcasts, watch movies, stream videos, play music, and more.
Amazon's larger smart display just got its biggest discount yet ahead of Prime Day. The Echo Show 11 boasts a vibrant 11-inch full HD screen and spatial audio support for room-filling sound when listening to music or watching videos. With Alexa+ support, too, you get access to all of its advanced AI features, and an easy way to connect and control other smart devices around you home.
The latest Echo Show 15 got a big refresh when it launched, bringing its specs up to speed and offering a better Alexa experience. These were the first smart displays from Amazon to see the Alexa+ treatment and, naturally, offer one of the better user experiences with Amazon's gen AI-boosted subscription service.
Amazon's Prime Day sale includes this 32-inch Ember TV on sale for a record-low price of $134.99. While the 2-Series is just a basic HD display, you get smart capabilities with the Fire TV experience and Amazon Alexa on board for hands-free control at a bargain price. It's far from the best TV in the world, but if you need something small and basic for the kitchen or a kid's room, then this is fine for the job.
The 50-inch Amazon Ember TV is the mid-sized version of the budget-friendly 4-Series range and it's now down to its lowest-ever price. It's a nice buy if you're on a budget, as the premium 4K resolution delivers excellent clarity and picture quality for TV shows, movies, sports and general viewing. All major streaming apps are ready to go, too, plus there's voice control support through Alexa. It's an all-around solid TV for the price that I'd buy if I needed an affordable and capable display.
Amazon's Ember QLED Series is a big step up in the otherwise cheap and cheerful range of smart TVs. This set boasts premium features, including a QLED display for better brightness and contrast, HDR and Dolby Vision for brighter and more vivid colours, local array dimming for richer blacks and HDMI 2.1 support to deliver a top-quality picture for all-around viewing and fast response times for gaming. It's not always easy to find a TV of this size and with these high-end features for under $500, so it's an excellent buy for the budget-conscious without compromising on quality.
Amazon is discounting its budget Fire TV Soundbar ahead of Prime Day. This compact soundbar is a decent buy for under $80 if you want an affordable and competent upgrade to your TV speakers, with support for DTS Virtual: X and Dolby Audio to offer generally clear sound and a simple setup process.
You can get Amazon's standard Fire TV Stick for just $15.99 — a new record-low price. In our Fire TV Stick review, we found the original version was a cheap way to add essential smart features to your TV, including access to streaming apps in HD, Alexa voice controls, and the ability to control other smart home devices.
Amazon's newest 4K streaming stick is down to its lowest-ever price for Prime Day. Considering it's only a few bucks more than the cheaper HD version, you might as well pay for the upgrade and get access to higher resolution streaming — as long as you have a 4K TV. It lacks a few premium features found in the more expensive Plus and Max models, such as improved Wi-Fi and Dolby Atmos, but this is more than enough to cover general everyday use.
The two-pack containing a pair of the latest wireless Ring Doorbells has been discounted to a new record-low price ahead of next week's Prime Day. We've tested more advanced versions and have been impressed with the video quality and night vision colour, but it's a shame that some of this device's value is usable exclusively with a Ring Protect subscription. However, if you're fine with paying for a subscription or already using a Ring-based home security system, it'll be worth the cost.
Amazon's spring sale offers an impressive $30 saving on this pair of easy-to-install Ring Indoor Cameras. This plug-in security camera works with Alexa and offers motion detection and real-time notifications, so you can stay up to date on what's happening throughout your house no matter where you are.
This early Prime Day deal lets you get the Ring Outdoor Camera for $39.99 — that's the lowest price I've ever seen. The Alexa-enabled security camera features motion-activated notifications, two-way talk, and can be placed outside thanks to the weather-resistant design and a battery life of six to twelve months.
