The best laptop and tech Amazon Spring Deal Days offers
PlayStation 5 Slim: Was £479.99, now £389, Amazon.co.uk
The all-new PS5 Slim disc edition was only released a few months ago and it’s already discounted in the Amazon Spring Sale, plus Prime members can cop an extra £20 off the console, bringing the machine down to just £389 for the first time. It is the OG PS5 with a glow-up. It weighs less, has a slimmer profile, and comes with 1TB of internal storage instead of the random 825GB found on the previous model. There are four panels on the side instead of two, a glossy upper half and a matte bottom half, and it comes with a detachable disc drive.
Apple AirPods pro: Was £229, now £199, Amazon.co.uk
Apple’s AirPods pro 2 have plummeted to their lowest price ever in Amazon’s sale, so invest now while they’re less than £200. The AirPods pro are a “significant improvement over the already-splendid first-generation model,” noted our review. Boasting active noise-cancellation, spatial audio and intuitive smart sensors, the flagship earbuds have a battery life of up to six hours of listening time and four and half hours of talk time, outside their charging case.
Meta Quest 2: Was £249, now £199, Amazon.co.uk
Though there’s a newer model out now, which features full-colour passthrough and improved lenses, the cheaper Meta Quest 2 remains one of the best VR headsets for anyone who doesn’t want to spend too much. The first genuinely user-friendly VR device, it doesn’t require any fussy setup or technical know-how to get working. Just pop it on and leave boring old reality behind.
Fitbit inspire 3: Was £84.99, now £64.99, Amazon.co.uk
Our reviewer scored this wearable device four out of five stars. “The straightforward, fitness-focused inspire 3 is ideal for users who value getting up-to-the-second step counting and heart-rate monitoring via their wrist, without quite so much extra ‘noise’ as you’d get with certain alternative models,” they said. With a high proportion of the captured data accessible via a smartphone app (rather than the Fitbit’s interface), the inspire 3 charges “super-fast”, according to our tester. Right now, you can get hold of the device with a discount of almost 25 per cent.
HyperX Cloud II gaming headset: Was £74.99, now £48.99, Amazon.co.uk
Calling all gamers: there are big savings to be had on loads of gaming accessories in Amazon’s spring sale, such as this top-of-the-range headset from HyperX. With virtual 7.1 surround sound, memory foam ear cushions, noise-cancellation audio and a microphone, your gaming experience is sure to be elevated. Now with 35 per cent off, they were featured in our guide to the best gaming headsets, so, you know you’re in good hands.
Soundcore Sleep A10 bluetooth earbuds: Was £109.99, now £69.99, Amazon.co.uk
The tiny and lightweight Sleep A10 earbuds are small enough to comfortably wear all night long, block external sounds, and will send you off to dreamtown with gentle white noise or a number of snooze-inducing natural soundscapes. Perfect for anyone who struggles to nod off – but doesn’t want to subject their partner to a white noise machine – they’ll automatically pause audio once you’ve fallen asleep and can even wake you up gently in the morning with an alarm only you can hear.
Soundcore Motion X600 Bluetooth speaker: Was £199.99, now £119.99, Amazon.co.uk
This Bluetooth speaker made it into our round-up of the best, with our reviewer saying: “The upside to the Motion X600’s slightly larger size is the room-filling sound, which comes courtesy of five drivers and five amplifiers, which disperse sound both horizontally and vertically.” They went on to say: “There’s no noise distortion either, something we suspect is down to Soundcore’s claim that the speaker uses a high-end DSP (digital signal processor).” If all this sounds like music to your ears, you can now pick up the speaker for less, thanks to Amazon’s 40 per cent discount.
Asus TUF FX507ZC4 gaming laptop: Was £749.99, now £669.99, Amazon.co.uk

Blink mini indoor pet security camera: Was £24.99, now £18.49, Amazon.co.uk
Voted the best budget buy in our guide to top home security cameras, this dinky device is now even more purse-friendly, thanks to the Amazon spring sale. After putting the camera through its paces, our tester said: “We were quietly impressed by this Blink offering. It has all the essentials you’d want for an indoor camera, including two-way talk.” They added: “Setup via the Blink app is really easy, too – it took less than five minutes before we were ready to go. The app also allows you to adjust the sensitivity, clip length and activity zones on the picture.” With more than 25 per cent off the price, now is a great time to grab one for less.
Samsung Galaxy A34: Was £399, now £274, Amazon.co.uk
