Discounts on products such as Samsung Galaxy Buds 4 Pro are also expected during the sale. Amazon's own Echo speakers, Fire TV devices and Kindle e-readers typically feature prominently during major festive promotions.

What shoppers should check before buying

Prices during the early-deal period can change when the main sale begins. Shoppers should therefore compare the final checkout price rather than relying only on the displayed discount percentage.

Bank offers, exchange bonuses and coupons may also be included in advertised prices, by checking eligibility and payment conditions before placing an order can help avoid unexpected pricing differences. Shoppers should also only use the official Amazon app or website and not links shared through unverified messages or social media posts.
