Amazon Prime Day live: Final day to bag these editor-approved discounts

Amazon Prime Day live: Final day to bag these editor-approved discounts

Independent11-07-2025
It's the final day of Amazon Prime Day 2025. The four-day sale ends tonight at midnight, so this is your last chance to snap up big savings on TVs, laptops, air fryers, mattresses, beauty products and electric toothbrushes, from the likes of Apple, Sony, Dyson, Shark, Ninja, Oral-B and more.
I've spent nearly a decade covering Prime Day, testing and reviewing hundreds of products and tracking their prices all year round. If something's dropped to its lowest-ever price, I'll know, and I'll flag it right here. With just hours left, the best deals are selling out fast. These offers are exclusive to Prime members, but if you haven't signed up before, there's still time to grab the 30-day free trial.
With the clock ticking down, I'm joined by The Independent 's senior shopping writer Daisy Lester, and we're tracking every last-minute deal until the sale ends for good.
Top Amazon Prime Day offers right now:
This IPL machine has never been cheaper than it is now
This IndyBest-approved IPL machine has been discounted to the lowest price I've seen for Prime Day.
Philips lumea IPL hair removal 9000 series: Was £489.99, now £329.99, Amazon.co.uk
If the rigmarole of shaving is tiring you out (in the pursuit of sub-par results) then you'll be thrilled to know there is another way, and it comes in the form of an at-home IPL – or intense pulsed light – machine. With a 33 per cent discount, the lumea 9000 is Amira's pick of the best IPL devices for all-over-body use. She said that 'it only took a few sessions before I saw lighter and sparser hairs growing back,' and it's never been cheaper.

Save more than 50% on COSRX's snail skincare
COSRX has been around for a while, but its skincare has only recently blown up on TikTok, especially the snail mucin stuff. If you've been curious, quite a few of its products are now on sale for Prime Day, including this cult favourite.
COSRX advanced snail 96 mucin power essence: Was £23.99, now £11.50, Amazon.co.uk
The Independent's Lucy Smith loves the stuff. 'Though it is very slimy – as you'd expect – COSRX's hero snail 96 mucin essence requires only a small drop to treat the whole face,' she said. 'It leaves the skin feeling as though it's had a generous drink of water, thanks to humectant hyaluronic acid, and feels ever so slightly creamy despite its transparent liquid appearance.'

You can get £30 off the Amazon Echo Spot right now
If you're looking to pick up a new Amazon Echo for the bedroom, the Echo Spot is one of the cleverest little smart alarm clocks I've tested.
Amazon Echo Spot smart alarm clock: Was £79.99, now £49.99, Amazon.co.uk
While it's not the cheapest it's been, with a £30 discount, the Amazon Echo Spot is a steal at this price. It's like a more advanced Echo Dot. 'The Echo Spot straddles the line between an Echo Dot and an Echo Show. Featuring a bright, animated display, it makes it really easy to see things like the weather, time and songs at a glance,' I said in my review. 'Customisable and quick to answer questions, it's a nifty little alarm clock that looks smart and has decent sound quality.'

And if you want the best wireless earbuds, look no further than this deal on the Sony WF-1000XM5.

The Sony WF-1000XM5 are still my top pick. They're comfortable, sound incredible and the noise-cancellation is up there with the best. At just over £170, this is the lowest price I've seen on them for a while, and well worth grabbing before the sale ends.

One of my favourite pairs of headphones have hit an all-time low price
I've reviewed loads of headphones over the years, and some of my favourites have been slashed to all-time low prices for Prime Day.
Sony WH-1000XM5: Was £379, now £219, Amazon.co.uk
The Sony WH-1000XM5 are still some of the best I've used. In my review, I wrote that 'you won't hear a better-sounding pair of headphones' and I stand by that. They topped my round-up of the best headphones list until earlier this year, when the newer XM6 took the crown. With 42 per cent off, this is the lowest price I've ever seen on the XM5s, and a brilliant time to upgrade.

Tesla tests fully self-driving car in London and Swindon

Tesla is demonstrating its cars' fully self-driving capabilities in tests on UK public roads. The electric vehicle manufacturer released two videos showing a Model 3 car negotiating central London and Swindon's Magic Roundabout while the person in the driver's seat is not holding the steering wheel. Advertisement Roundabout final boss FSD Supervised tackling Swindon Magic Roundabout in 🇬🇧 — Tesla Europe & Middle East (@teslaeurope) July 25, 2025 The three-minute clip shot in London demonstrates the car dealing with roadworks and passing landmarks such as Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and Downing Street. Tesla said the Model 3 used for the videos contains the same hardware as vehicles delivered to customers today, but has software currently available only to its engineers. The company is awaiting regulatory approval to use its unsupervised full self-driving capabilities in the UK.

Advertisement 'The challenge for the regulatory authorities – and the nagging worry in the minds of potential passengers – is how to be sure that these vehicles can cope in every combination of circumstances they might encounter, including those where the human drivers around them might be less inclined to stick to the rules. 'The regulatory test self-driving vehicles need to pass is not whether they can cope with our roads on a given day, it is whether they can cope every day in every combination of circumstances they might encounter.' On Monday, the Government launched a consultation on what rules self-driving taxis should have to meet in future.

Transfer news live: Liverpool target Isak after Diaz deal, Arsenal want Eze, Man Utd latest

Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester United are among the clubs striking major deals as the summer transfer window nears its final month. Liverpool have signed Hugo Ekitike from Eintracht Frankfurt in a £79m deal having beaten off interest from Newcastle to secure his signature. The Reds have also agreed to sell Luis Diaz to Bayern Munich which could challenge the resolve of Newcastle who are holding firm in their valuation of Alexander Isak. Isak has requested to 'explore his options' away from the club with a move to Liverpool seemingly the likeliest destination as the Premier League champions aim to strengthen their forward line. Arsenal have completed the signing of Sporting's Viktor Gyokeres, closing out a deal worth £63m for the forward who was unveiled as a new Gunner during their pre-season match against Newcastle on Sunday. The Gunners have also confirmed the signing of Cristhian Mosquera in defence and have their sights on Crystal Palace's Eberechi Eze. Elsewhere, Manchester United have completed the signing of Bryan Mbeumo who joins Matheus Cunha in Ruben Amorim's new-look attack though the manager is still hopeful of securing a No.9 before the start of the season. Marcus Rashford has completed a loan move to Barcelona while Jadon Sancho is drawing interest from Juventus as the club also focus on outgoings. Meanwhile, Chelsea have their sights on a Dutch duo of Xavi Simons and centre-back Jorrel Hato. Arsenal ramp up bid for Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze Arsenal are aiming to swiftly move to secure Crystal Palace 's Eberechi Eze now that the deal for Sporting 's Viktor Gyokeres is complete. Mikel Arteta 's side are Eze's top choice, as has previously been reported by The Independent, and those close to the player are confident a deal will be done in the next few weeks. Arsenal are hoping to agree a fee that comes to £60m, rather than the reported £68m clause, although on terms that are also amenable to Palace. Although there has not yet been any formal contact between the two clubs, the suggestions are that both will be flexible, amid good relations between the two boardrooms. Mike Jones28 July 2025 07:23 Arsenal complete Viktor Gyokeres signing Arsenal have completed the signing of Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting, for a final fee of €63m (£55m) with a further €10m to potentially be paid in add-ons (totalling £64m). The 27-year-old has signed a five-year contract. The purchase marks the end of an 18-month hunt for a number-nine from Arsenal, who have been insistent on signing a goalscorer for the 'here and now'. Gyokeres' arrival also marks the end of a hard period of negotiations with Sporting, who were insistent on more achievable add-ons. At one point, the deal dragged on and stalled over a potential add-on of €5m.

United made the inquiry on Thursday evening but were told that Watkins 'is not for sale'. Watkins is just one of a few strikers United have looked at along with others including Chelsea's Nicolas Jackson and RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko. With a valuation of around £60m, Watkins is one of the cheaper options United are exploring and has proven Premier League quality. If they do pursue a deal then it will be difficult to convince Villa to part ways with their man.

The Colombian winger, who is currently in Tokyo with Liverpool on their pre-season tour, will leave on Sunday or Monday to complete the formalities of his move. Liverpool had long insisted Diaz was not for sale but reluctantly agreed to his request to go. Liverpool accept €75m Luis Diaz bid from Bayern Munich Richard Jolly 28 July 2025 07:20

Cranswick says review ‘well advanced' after pig farm abuse claims

Meat giant Cranswick has said an independent review into its animal welfare policies and procedures is 'well advanced' following abuse claims at a pig farm run by the business earlier this year. The boss of the company added that it has strengthened its animal welfare practices and checks further in recent months as a result. Cranswick suspended using Northmoor Farm in Lincolnshire in May after covert footage emerged appearing to show workers at the site abusing piglets. Workers were filmed appearing to hold piglets by their hind legs and slamming them to the ground, using a banned method of killing the animals known as 'piglet thumping'. Major supermarkets Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury's and Tesco suspended Northmoor Farm as a supplier, and Cranswick shortly afterwards launched the independent review into its animal welfare policies and livestock operations. Adam Couch, chief executive of the firm, said: 'In line with the commitments we made on May 20, we have further strengthened our animal welfare compliance practices and checks. 'The independent expert veterinarian led review of these policies and procedures is well advanced, and we look forward to receiving its recommendations. 'We will provide a further update on this review in due course.' The update on Monday came as the East Yorkshire-based company also revealed that revenues grew by 9.7% over the 13 weeks to June 28, after a boost from the acquisition of sausage maker Blakemans and export growth. Like-for-like revenues grew by 7.9% as it was also boosted new business wins and a strong performance from its 'premium added-value ranges'. Export revenues were 'strong' on the back of higher volumes and pricing after the China export licence for its Norfolk fresh pork site was reinstated late last year. Poultry revenues also grew strongly, while its pet products revenues grew after rolling out more products for Pets at Home. Cranswick said it is currently on track to meet it financial expectations for the current financial year. Mr Couch added: 'We have made a strong start to the year, delivering volume-led revenue growth across all product categories. 'Our continued positive progress reflects the substantial ongoing investment in our asset base and the quality and capability of our colleagues across the business.'
