Amazon Prime Day is now in full swing, with the popular online marketplace offering a slew of technology gear to its paying members at discounted prices. From fitness trackers to gaming bundles, IBTimes UK is bringing you a selection of the best deals available now.

You need to be an Amazon Prime member (or be signed up for a 30-day free trial) to access the deals. There will be both Lighting Deals and Deals of the Day. All products are available to purchase at the time of writing.

There are deals listed for high-end televisions, smartphones, headphones and tablets and more. But they may go quickly. Some products – including the discounted Surface Pro 4 – are already out-of-stock.
