The best Amazon UK Prime Day 2017 deals

After some new tech? We've got you covered.

It's July 11th. For many, it's just another Tuesday, but for Amazon, it's another opportunity for the company to sell you loads of stuff you probably don't need. That's right, it's Prime Day, a marketing trick where Amazon "discounts" thousands of products for Prime subscribers. This year, there are plenty of deals to be had, especially if you're in the mood for a new piece of technology.We've put together a list of all-day deals that we think are worth keeping an eye on.

Amazon Echo: £79.99 (normally £149.99) -- Where better to start than Amazon's smart speaker. For today only, the Echo is 47 percent off and is the cheapest it's ever been.

Amazon Echo Dot: £34.99 (normally £49.99) -- Like the Echo but smaller, the Echo Dot is an easy way to buy into Amazon's ecosystem. Instead of serving as the main speaker in a room, the Dot can be connected to your existing audio setup, making it super smart in the process.
