I'm a shopping writer and I've scoured all the retailers participating in the August Afterpay Day sale — here are the best 57 deals I've found on Day 1

This price on the iPhone 16 makes it a great option for those looking to snag a cheap iPhone. It offers a range of colours and the speed of Apple’s A18 platform, combined with an excellent dual camera array and the new Camera Control button. We have a guide on seven differences between the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16e, but the big difference is the base model's camera. At full price, the 16e is the easy choice, but this discount makes the base model considerably more attractive to budget buyers.

Score 23% off Apple's thinnest phone, the iPhone Air, on Amazon right now. Sporting 512GB, this new handset scored 3.5 stars in our review, namely for its lightweight design, A19 Pro power chip and durable titanium build.

If you're looking for an Android phone that punches well above its weight, the Oppo Find X5 Lite 5G might be for you. It boasts a 64MP AI camera, 65W fast charging, a 90Hz display and 256GB of onboard storage (plus the option for microSD storage up to 512GB), and right now it's a massive AU$410 off.

Save big on your next smartphone with this Motorola G75. Complete with matching Moto buds, this budget-friendly Android headset comes with a full 6.8 HD display, turbocharging, 5000mAh battery and 50MP rear camera.

This power bank can charge at up to 145W, and has dual USB-C ports, plus a USB-A. You can charge multiple devices at once, including your laptop and phone at the same time.

Strolling around your home without missing out on your favourite shows or movies on your TV just got a whole lot easier. This portable touchscreen TV can go wherever you go, delivering a vivid 1920 x 1080 HD viewing experience.

The Samsung 256GB Galaxy Tab S9 is a great option, no matter how you plan to use it. The included S Pen makes it ideal for artists and note-takers, and at this price, it’s also a solid pick for casual use like streaming shows or browsing the web. With Samsung promising security updates through 2028, it’s a tablet that will stay reliable for years to come.

Okay, so while it's not the most mind-blowing deal we've ever seen, even a small discount on Apple's awesome AirPods Max is definitely worth a look. You can also grab Midnight for the same price.

This rugged, waterproof Bluetooth speaker has a pretty decent amount of bass, if that's how you like to party. Plus you get up to 20 hours of playback and you can eve use it as a portable charger in case your phone runs out of juice.

These cheap buds pack a mighty punch. The EarFun Air Pro 3s deliver decent noise cancellation, premium sound quality and an impressive 45-hour battery life with the charging case.

Now 58% off, Blink's Outdoor 4 is weatherproof and can be used outside — it records 1080p HD real-time footage, has infrared night vision, two-way audio and a wider field of view, so you can see all the nooks and crannies outside your home. The camera also features dual-zone detection and comes with a Blink Sync Module 2, which allows you to store your footage locally. Plus, it comes with one of Blink's latest additions, the Video Doorbell. What a win!

If you want a stylish, tilt-head stand mixer to suit your kitchen, this is an excellent deal. With a 4.3L capacity, it's large enough to bake up to 8 dozen cookies in a single batch. A powerful mixer, it has 10 speeds to quickly whisk, mix, beat and whip up a storm.

We gave this Breville compact pizza oven 4 out of 5 stars in our review, but we knocked off a mark because it was too expensive. But this discount slashes a modest AU$210 off when you hit the price beat button at The Good Guys. Emulating a traditional wood-fired pizza oven, it can reach up to 400C and creates a direct intense heat that ensures a perfect pie every time. Looks can be deceiving, though, as this appliance will take up a microwave-sized portion of countertop space and weighs around 15kg.

We think the Ninja AF Pro is Ninja's best air fryer thanks to its quiet cooking, its small size and easy controls. But, while you'll have to deal with a slightly bigger frame, we think this huge saving on the larger 6.2L model makes it the air fryer to have. It offers all the same positives we enjoyed about the base model, with the ability to cook for one or two more people.

If you're keen to get outside and cook this winter, chances are that this deal is for you. This Ninja outdoor pizza oven offers 8 functions, including pizza, max roast, specialty roast and smoker, amongst others, so it’s by no means limited to just pizza.

The Ninja BlendBoss is a sleek, smart, and powerful appliance for enjoying blended drinks on the go. Simply pop in your ingredients to blend, then detach the tumbler from its base to carry it around. With a 1,100W motor, it's more than capable of crushing your favourite smoothie mix, including ice.

Meet the Ninja Crispi's newest sibling. With six modes, three different-sized borosilicate glassware "baskets" with container lids, and a larger, benchtop-permanent stand, this Pro takes the Crispi to the max.

This KitchenAid bundle includes the KSM195 stand mixer and the K400 blender in the bright Hibiscus colourway. Considering the blender itself is discounted to AU$333, from AU$499, this 2-for-1 bundle is quite the steal if you're looking to nab some premium kitchen appliances this Big Smile Sale.

Ninja's glass air fryer packs 1700W of power into a portable design, with two borosilicate glassware containers that serve as both frying baskets and serving dishes. The borosilicate means they can also withstand extreme temperatures, making it easy to take your favourite foods from frozen to crispy. The Crispi also comes with two removable crisping grates and two snap-on container lids for easy food storage post-feast.

Also available in Sage or Stone colourways.

We're big fans of the Ninja Slushi at Tom's Guide — it's awesome for everything from frappes to smoothies, and even a boozy slushie if that's your vibe, thanks to its super handy drink modes. While the Amazon price isn't anything special, it does match what other stores are charging. The real win here is that it's actually in stock — this thing's been tough to find, and Amazon gets it to you quick!

Destined to sell out fast, the Ninja Creami Swirl has gotten a nice 27% discount at SharkNinja Direct. It features 13 one-touch presets and a soft-serve handle, designed to dispense up to 4 small cones from one container.

I've owned this little food chopper for almost a year and it has truly transformed my kitchen setup. It can pulse, blend and chop up to 3.5 cups of food at the same time, and it's very cute to look at. That said, it may not suit larger recipes or meal prepping, as you may need to process more batches, and yet it still saves time compared to manually chopping your produce.

If you don’t need a stand mixer, or it might take up too much space, you could consider a speedy hand mixer instead. Surely nine speeds should do just the trick, without needing much baker's elbow to get it going. Now discounted to just AU$160, the mixer also comes with five different attachments, including a dough hook and a whisk.

It doesn’t quite match a previous low of AU$349, but this nice discount using our exclusive Breville coupon code is still rather reasonable on the Bambino Plus. This compact machine ranks third on our best coffee machines list as a budget-friendly beginner machine. You'll need to pair it with a great coffee grinder; however, you can expect some seriously gorgeous crema and effortless microfoam.

Yearning for more out of your current capsule coffee machine? This Nespresso Vertuo Creatista model easily blends simplicity and quality into one touch. With capsule sizes ranging from espresso to mug, and a built-in milk frother, this classy-looking machine will elevate your home coffee experience.

Dyson is promising significant advancements in the world of robot vacuum cleaners with its Spot+Scrub AI model, thanks to a green laser that detects stains on the floor and keeps cleaning them until they're gone. In our Dyson Spot+Scrub AI review, our editor said it's "a hands-off robot vacuum I'd trust to keep my home spotless" — so it's definitely worth a look.

Not the biggest saving on Dyson's newest Airwrap, but still worth a mention during this Afterpay Day sale. Alongside smart attachments, this styler includes the new AirSmooth finishing attachment, which helps lock in shine and keep your hair frizz-free.

Now available in Australia, Shark's latest airstyler, the Glam, is a notable improvement on the Flexstyle, incorporating new styling attachments to make it a 4-in-1 styler. You'll need to act fast to grab this 5-star rated styler, as it's sure to sell out at this discounted rate!

With new smart settings and a brand-new diffuser attachment for curly hair types, the Dyson Supersonic Nural is perfect for anyone.

If this Rose Latte shade isn't your cup of tea, there are plenty of fun and vibrant colourways available under the same listing.

The Hoka Mach 6 is a lightweight and versatile trainer that our fitness editors, Nick and Jane, consistently recommend, and they're on sale. Both the men's and women's shoes are available in a wide range of colours and sizes.

While the Saucony Triumph 23 is not the most exciting running shoe, it has a couple of key features to recommend it. One is that it's very comfortable and protective, and the other is its durability. That said, it's now discounted by 44% in both men's and women's sizes, which is one of the deepest discounts we've seen, so it could be worth nabbing ASAP.

The Saucony Hurricane 25 is the kind of shoe you reach for when you want maximum comfort without giving up stable, reliable support.

Those long runs and recovery days highlighted how gentle, steady and genuinely comfortable the ride feels.

Knocking up to 50% off, these clogs are extremely versatile, breathable and dry fast when wet, making them perfect for almost every activity. And without these sandals, we wouldn't know what Jibbitz are and their ability to personalise any pair of Crocs to your liking.

An Aussie summer staple, but make it Crocs?! This Miami Flip style is an obvious choice for beach days, with an elevated lift and stylish square toe. A range of colours are discounted, but this price is exclusive to the Dragon Fruit option.
