Amazon Prime Day 2022 phone deals: What deals do we expect to see?

One of the big sales days online is Amazon Prime Day. It's held in the middle of the year and sees Amazon reducing prices across a wide range of stock - including mobile phones. This often provides the opportunity to get a handset at a reduced

When is Prime Day 2022?

That's a closely guarded secret of Amazon. Over the past couple of years we've seen the date moving around. In 2019 it was 15 July, in 2020 is was delayed until 13-14 October and in 2021 it was 21-22 June.

There's no way of telling when to expect the sales in 2022, but we suspect that Amazon will stick to June or July. The Prime Day sales are natural counterpoint to the Black Friday sales and give Amazon the opportunity to move on stock in a mid-year sale.

What devices will be discounted on Prime Day?

There are usually discounts across a range of manufacturers including Apple, Samsung, Oppo, OnePlus and others. 

If you're looking for an iPhone deal you might be in luck - with Prime Day coming some 9 months after the launch of the iPhone 13, it's likely that will be included in the sales, but the bigger discounts are likely to be on the older iPhone 12. As there's not a huge difference between these devices, the smart shoppers might want to snap up the 2020 iPhone instead of the latest model.

Samsung is likely to launch the Galaxy S22 family in early 2022 and if previous years are anything to go by, Prime Day will likely be a good time to get a discount on some of those latest models - we saw £245 off the price of the S21 Ultra is 2021 and with Samsung it's definitely worth waiting to buy if you want the best deals.

Are there genuine deals on Prime Day?

You do need to shop carefully on Prime Day. While some of the cited discounts might be questionable, the prices offered are usually competitive. Often, these will be around the lowest that these phone have been offered for, but they may have seen similar prices in previous sales, around Easter for example. 

Prices do sometimes fluctuate and it's careful to keep your eyes on when Prime Day actually starts, as it's a short event and you normally only have 24 hours to make your purchase, because those devices return to the full retail price.

Do I need to be a Prime member?

Yes - that's the catch with Amazon Prime Day - it's an exclusive sales event for Prime subscribers. That means you'll need to get yourself Amazon Prime to get access to the best prices on the day. If you're not already a Prime Member, there's a 30-day trial, so you can sample the benefits - free delivery, Prime Video, Prime Music, Prime Reading and more.
