Amazon Prime Day is on the way and will take place in July 2020.
Amazon UK says a record number of shoppers made a purchase this time around and the first 24 hours of Prime Day was the biggest day of the year for Amazon UK - the retailer said the most shopped for categories included wine and spirits, video game consoles and headphones while the top-sellers were the Fire TV Stick 4K, Sony PlayStation Classic Console and Oral B Smart Series Electric Toothbrush.
Prime members worldwide purchased more than 175 million items throughout Prime Day. The top-selling deals worldwide were Echo Dot, Fire TV Stick with Alexa Voice Remote, and Fire TV Stick 4K with Alexa Voice Remote. Shark vacuum cleaners were also popular in the UK.
15 July 2019 was the biggest day ever for Amazon Prime sign-ups. The fastest Amazon Prime Now deliveries included a Fire TV Stick delivered to a Prime member in Newcastle in 12 minutes and 6 seconds and a grocery shop including Morrison’s pork and apple sausages and Haribo sweets to a Prime member in Surrey in 13 minutes and 43 seconds.

When is Amazon Prime Day 2020?
As we don't know any official dates from Amazon yet, we're taking an educated guess - we think Amazon Prime Day will take place on 13-14 July 2020.
In 2019, Amazon Prime Day took place over 48 hours from 15-16 July and that seemed about right; Amazon was able to sustain a good number of deals for the two days and it was successful from Amazon UK's point of view. So we're expecting the same duration again.
And, since Amazon Prime Day is usually a Tuesday and 2019 was Monday and Tuesday, we've picked the equivalent days for 2020.
Prime Day, as the name suggests, was previously centred around a 24-hour period, but 2019 was the first 48-hour Prime Day. Last year Amazon Prime Day deals took place for 36 hours across 16-17 July. In July 2017 it was 10-11 July.
Do I need to be a Prime member to get Amazon Prime Day deals?
Yes - to get Amazon Prime deals you need to be a Prime member. If you're not, it's high time you signed up for Prime membership.It usually costs £79 a year but it is currently £20 off - so £59.99.
Some of the very best deals are always on Amazon devices, but there are stacks across all product categories such as TV, laptops, smart home, fitness, cameras, gaming and more.
