We’re in a bit of an in-between period for deals right now. Prime Day is in the rearview mirror (but Amazon has confirmed a second Prime Day like event for October) and the impending Black Friday sales are still a couple of months away, but Amazon clearly doesn’t need an excuse to start discounting best-selling products as the online retailing giant is offering a massive selection of epic deals this week. 

Right now, you can score some of the best Amazon deals of the summer, including big savings on the likes of the Apple iPad (2021) and the LG C2 OLED TV. However, my personal favorite deal that’s currently available on Amazon is the PS5 DualSense Controller for $49 — that’s its lowest price ever for this essential PS5 accessory. However, if you’ve got something else at the top of your wishlist, it’s worth having a look at Amazon’s deal hub as just might find it’s on sale over the next few days.

There are literally thousands of deals to sort through on Amazon right now, which can make picking out the genuine savings from the overhyped offered a little tricky. That’s why I’ve rounded up my favorite deals down below. Plus, make sure to check out our guide to the best Amazon coupon codes as these could save you even more money.
