It appears as though Aussies have embraced Amazon's Prime Day sale in a big way this year, with a wide variety of items gaining popularity since the event's start on Tuesday, July 11 — and it's unlikely that frenzy will slow down until the sale ends at 11:59pm (AEST) tonight (Wednesday, July 12). 

That said, the Prime Day sales event gets a bit of an extension in Australia due to our being almost a day ahead of the US, with discounts on select international Amazon products continuing until 5pm AEST on Thursday, July 13.

Like we've seen in previous years, tech items have been selling like hot cakes in Australia during this year's Prime Day sale, with Aussies taking the opportunity to snag new headphones, smart speakers, ereaders and more.

To give you an idea of the most popular tech buys in Australia right now, we've put together a list of the best-selling electronics during Amazon Prime Day 2023. We've also taken the liberty of telling you how much they're discounted by (in case you'd like to buy one of them yourself).

Please note that each of the deals below requires an Amazon Prime subscription, meaning they're exclusive to Prime members. Luckily, a 30-day free trial is available to new users who sign up now, and you can always unsubscribe before the trial period is over.
