Amazon Prime Day in Australia—when's the next big Amazon sale?

Amazon tends to hold a handful of major sales events every year. The biggest is Amazon Prime Day, which usually kicks off in July and—somewhat counterintuitively—usually runs for a week in Australia. In 2025, Amazon also ran Prime Big Deal days in mid-October, which nearly rivalled the size of its biggest sale.

In other words, Amazon's major 2026 sales are still a way away, and we won't have official dates for months from now.

The silver lining is this: Amazon usually hosts a bunch of smaller sales during the year, and chief among these is its Amazon Big Smile Sale. That ran from March 17 to March 23 in 2025, so if it's happening in 2026, it'll be happening soon.

You don't need to be a Prime member to gain access to Amazon sales, but it tends to come in handy during its major sales events, especially Amazon Prime Day. When a sale kicks off you should definitely sign up for an Amazon Prime trial (just make sure to cancel it before your first billing date).

When Amazon does kick off a major (or relevant minor) sales event, I'll be keeping track of all the best deals on this page. I've been doing it for nearly a decade, so I know where to look.

And why listen to our recommendations? We test products year-round—with the exception of a few public holidays, our team of hardware experts has to chill at some point—and these sales events are an opportunity for us to help you save some cash on the products we already recommend. We actually do the testing, and you can find page after page of reviews right here.

Are there any good deals on Amazon ahead of its next sales event?

There's usually a handful of decent PC gaming discounts on Amazon. Here's what's going at the moment:

Lenovo Legion R45w-30: was AU$1,299 now AU$899 at Amazon

There's not much more you could want with this chonker. 44-inches of 170Hz curved screen to lose yourself into. It was down to AU$899 during Boxing Day, but this AU$998 offer is still pretty decent for what you get. The 5120 x 1440 resolution is also damn handy when you use this as a work monitor.

Corsair K70 RGB Pro: was AU$249 now AU$191.34 at Amazon

I use this keyboard every day, all day and can highly recommend. The RGB is typically stunning, and the build is very robust: you could use it to knock out an intruder. It features 8,000Hz hyper-polling, 4,000Hz key scanning, PBT Double-shot Pro keycaps and yeah: it looks great. This isn't the cheapest its been, but it's still a decent going price.

JBL Quantum 100M2: was AU$59.95 now AU$28 at Amazon

If you're hell bent on keeping costs low, JBL’s Quantum 100M2 is cheap as chips—especially if you happen to be buying AU$28 worth of chips. These aren't fancy but they do work, with a boom mic, breathable ear cushions, and a stripped-back design. It was a whole dollar cheaper during Boxing Day, if that deters you.

Save 10% (AU$100)

ASUS ROG Xbox Ally: was AU$999 now AU$899 at Amazon

If you're curious about this collab between Asus and Microsoft, AU$100 off the RRP may tip you over the edge. This particular model should not be confused with the ROG Xbox Ally X, which has better specs than this cheaper model. I wouldn't personally opt for this over the Steam Deck, mostly because this thing is pricey and doesn't have trackpads. But it's there if you want it.
