Kindles are dominating when it comes to ereaders, and you can currently save 31 per cent on the Kindle scribe. Our tech writer, David Phelan, voted it the best e-reader with a large screen, but its real USP is the stylus that enables handwritten notes in the margins.

Kindle Scribe (16 GB): Was £329.99, now £299, Amazon.co.uk

“The scribe collects your notes together in one place, which is handy”, David said, adding that the “screen is designed to be slightly rougher, so it feels more like pen on paper”. Plus, he noted that the screen being bigger means you won’t have to turn the page so often, owing to more words fitting onto each page. The battery life is seriously impressive, too. David was able to attest to Amazon’s claim that it’s months, not weeks.

Whether you’re after a cheap and cheerful laptop or a high-tech model, IndyBest tech writer Steve has rounded up a selection of epic deals in his Prime Day guide. One of the best? There’s £100 off the Macbook Air. 

MacBook Air (13.6in, M2, 2022): Was £999, now £899, Amazon.co.uk

If it’s a Macbook you’re after, the 2022 Macbook Air is slashed in price by £100. With Apple’s M2 processor it’s still a blisteringly fast machine, and thin and lightweight, too.

Amazon’s October Prime Day has brought an influx of discounts on beauty products from the likes of Weleda, Shark, Kérastase and more. Below, I’ve rounded up a couple of deals below that will set you back less than a tenner.

Maybelline New York lash sensational sky high mascara: Was £12.99, now £6.89, Amazon.co.uk

Wildly popular, a tube of Maybelline lash sensational is sold every seven seconds in the UK. And it lived up to the hype in our review, where our tester’s “eyelashes instantly looked lengthened and lifted, and most impressively, stayed that way all day”.

The Inkey List retinol eye cream: Was £12.99, now £8.54, Amazon.co.uk

When it comes to affordable beauty, The Inkey List is another of our favourites. When put its retinol eye cream to the test test, our reviewer found it “gentle enough for those new to retinol,” and commented on how the formula was sensitive skin-approved.

Dove summer revived medium to dark gradual tan lotion: Was £8.50, now £3.60, Amazon.co.uk

Dove’s gradual self tan is a best-seller for a reason. After testing this shade, our reviewer said they “saw a noticeable difference after one application, and the colour that developed was really natural-looking.” For less than the price of a flat white, you really can’t ask for much more.

Hailed for its revolutionary bond-building technology, Olaplex is something of a legend in haircare. And if you love its famous no3 hair perfector as much as us, here’s a deal worth nabbing.

Olaplex no.3 hair perfector: Was £28, now £19.95, Amazon.co.uk

“This weekly treatment works by repairing bonds from the inside out, and we found the two-part system (£52, Lookfantastic.com) worked wonders on our split ends and made our hair visibly more shiny”, our reviewer said. “We found it to be a really effective at-home solution, so much so, we’d go as far as to say it produced results that were far better than other at-home treatments we’ve used in the past.” Well worth a spot in your bathroom cabinet, you can save nearly 30 per cent right now.

Mattresses can set us back a pretty penny, so it’s worth scooping up a deal if we can. Simba is a tried and trusted name in the mattress world, and I’ve just seen a 25 per cent discount on the Simba hybrid mattress which, in our review, was praised for offering cloud-like comfort and support.

Simba hybrid mattress: Was £799, now £599.25, Amazon.co.uk

In our review, Simba’s hybrid mattress provided “instant and cloud-like balance of comfort and support right up to the edges”. Our tester went on to “recommend it to medium firmness fans, side and front sleepers, back pain sufferers, people who get hot at night and people whose bedrooms are difficult to reach”. And you can be on cloud nine knowing you saved 25 per cent per cent, too.

Right now there’s a bunch of deals on Apple tech including the Apple AirPods Pro 2 (was £229, now £179, Amazon.co.uk), the Kindle Scribe (was £329.99, now £229, Amazon.co.uk) and the Apple Watch SE (2nd gen) (was £219, now £199, Amazon.co.uk). This deal has knocked £60 off the 9th-generation iPad.

Apple iPad (9th gen, 2021): Was £329, now £269, Amazon.co.uk

This might not be the latest Apple iPad on the market – in fact, you can’t actually buy this directly from Apple anymore – but it’s still a briliant buy if you’re after a tablet for casual use. With a bright and sharp 10.2in a display, it also boasts a battery that lasts all day. 

Beauty fans rave about Color Wow’s dream coat anti-humidity hair spray, and the team has spotted a stellar deal on the cult favourite product.

Color Wow dream coat anti-humidity hair spray: Was £57, now £43.60, Amazon.co.uk

Color Wow’s dream coat anti-humidity hair spray is now reduced by 24 per cent when you pick up a 500ml bottle in the Prime Day sale. In our review, our tester was blown away, and recommended it for those who “struggle with frizz or find that [their] hair immediately reacts at the slightest bit of humidity”. Sleek and shiny hair here we come.

If you’re looking to upgrade from instant coffee, you don’t need to fork out hundreds of pounds for a coffee machine. Our recommendation? The Nespresso vertuo next is an affordable tried and tested model. Even better, it’s now 60 per cent off.

Nespresso vertuo plus coffee machine: Was £199.99, now £79.99, Amazon.co.uk

Landing a spot in our review of the best coffee machines, the Nespresso vertuo plus coffee machine is now reduced by a massive 60 per cent. It was hailed as the best for coffees by our reviewer, who found it “incredibly easy to use”. Crucially, it also whipped up a great coffee with a “a good amount of crema on top”. And it’s now under £80.

Amazon has unsurprisingly lowered the price of its own-brand gadgets this Prime Day. That includes deals on Fire TV sticks, Kindle tablets, Ring video doorbells and Echo smart speakers. This deal on the latest Echo dot smart speaker is actually guaranteed to run until 16 October.

Echo Dot 5th generation: Was £54.99, now £22.99, Amazon.co.uk

At just £20 this Prime Day, the latest generation of Amazon’s Echo Dot has never been cheaper. “The Amazon Echo Dot is the baby in the Amazon Echo range”, our tester explained in their review, “but don’t be deceived by its diminutive, spherical and slightly squat size – this speaker Alexifies every room in your home on a budget, while still delivering decent sound and good smarts”.

Whether you’re on the hunt for an air fryer, scouting for a coffee machine or searching for a cordless vacuum cleaner, these are the top home appliance deals on Ninja, Shark, Nespresso and more.
