Don’t miss these 140+ best Prime Day deals in Australia on day 5, handpicked by tech experts — up to 76% off headphones, vacuums, air fryers and more

Both Amazon Prime Day and Black Friday generally offer discounts on the same kinds of devices, but there are a few differences between the sales events.

Prime Day deals are largely focused on Amazon itself and what’s available in its relatively large catalogue. So while you can get a whole lotta tech on Amazon, some key categories like TVs is largely missing.

And that’s where Black Friday comes. This bigger shopping event is set across nearly every retailer in Australia, giving you a wider variety of discounted goods and, with competition between them really high, you can save yourself a heck of a lot of cash.

So it really depends on what you want to buy: if the item is available on Amazon, you’ll typically see the best price during Prime Day in July and that usually just gets repeated during Black Friday, so you don’t need to wait till November. However, if it’s something Amazon doesn’t sell (yet), you’re better off waiting for the calendar year’s biggest shopping event.

I have the white (or what’s labelled as grey) Logitech Lift and, after a few years of daily use, it’s looking a little worse for wear. I’m sorely tempted to swap it out for this Graphite version instead, and it’s cheaper than I’ve every seen it before.

The previous low price was a little over AU$67 for the PC version of the Black variant, which makes the current 55% discount the best price yet.

I will have to note that it’s designed for smaller hands like mine, so people with large mitts might not like its ergonomics — your little finger is likely to drag along your desk. Otherwise, it’s an ergonomic mouse I wouldn’t swap for anything else.

I don’t know if it’s just me, but I’ve noticed more people are getting interested in triathlons, all looking to eventually train to move up to an Ironman race one day. In fact, the multisport event is popular enough that Ironman races sell out almost immediately, and smaller triathlon events are popping up almost everywhere now.

If you’re one of them and you’re finding that your smartwatch isn’t quite keeping up with your training, one of Garmin’s best multisport watches, the Forerunner 965, is discounted to AU$589, a whopping 41% off.

Apple’s Magic Keyboard does a great job of replicating the built-in MacBook keyboard, but for Macs. The seamless device pairing, ultra-slim build and Touch ID make it a really convenient option.

But the typing experience could be a lot better, and it only works on Apple devices.

Logitech’s MX Keys keyboard brings a similar slim chassis but adds a more cushioned and ergonomic typing experience. It uses spherically-dished keys with deeper, more tactile travel, which can be more comfortable for longer typing sessions. It also has backlighting, which is missing in the Magic Keyboard, and it also adjusts automatically to your ambient room lighting.

And because it isn’t an Apple product, the MX Keys also works with Windows and Linux too!

It’s hardly a secret at this point that PC gaming is expensive as ever, no thanks to shortages in RAM and storage pushing up prices of the overall computing industry. In fact, it’s even impacted console gaming, too, with price hikes on the PlayStation 5 and the Nintendo Switch.

One respite, however, is that monitors are getting cheaper than ever, and this Lenovo monitor for less than AU$100 is a fantastic budget option.

While the 23.80-inch Lenovo L24-4E isn’t an outright gaming monitor, it has a 100Hz refresh rate to create a smooth gaming experience if you don’t mind a 1080p display, as well as crisp IPS display technology. At AU$94, you could even go for a triple-monitor setup that would still be cheaper than a single ultrawide monitor in most cases.

I’m a massive Bose fan — I’ve been using the brand’s headphones for yonks! And while I’ve not had the need to get myself one of Bose’s Bluetooth speakers, I have it on good authority that they too pack a punch.

Project Hail Mary is arguably one of the best feel-good movies of this year and it’s made its debut on Prime Video.

The movie follows Rylan Gosling as a science teacher who wakes up on a spaceship light years from home, with no memory of who he is or how he got there. He begins to uncover that he’s there on a mission to solve the riddle of the mysterious substance causing the sun to die out. It seems like an impossible task but he isn’t alone; he is accompanied by Rocky, an alien that has stolen the hearts of viewers everywhere.

Of course there’s more free stuff during Prime Day!

In fact, this one is a perk for all Prime members (even existing ones), but you will need to remember to claim it before the offer ends later this year.

Current or new Prime members get free DoorDash deliveries for the next two years (as well as other DashPass benefits). A typical 2-year DashPass subscription would cost you AU$192, so this is massive savings right here.

Today’s best Amazon Prime deals

Thank you, each and every one of you, who have joined me in my ongoing live coverage of the Amazon Prime Day 2026 sale. So far, this year’s Prime Day has been quite spectacular as prices have taken a serious tumble for several tech items.

I’ve covered every single Amazon sale for TechRadar since the online retail giant’s debut in Australia in December 2025. The last couple of years I’ve complained that the prices weren’t as good as I’d previously seen and now… well, I’m mighty impressed and I don’t say that lightly. Money is tight for many of us, so I genuinely think this sale is a good opportunity to find that something specific that you’ve been holding out for.

I’ll be here all weekend long, and well into the coming week as well so I can keep you updated on all the latest deals and price changes. So give me company for a few days more — I may well make your Amazon shopping experience simpler.
