The best Amazon Prime Day phone deals (2020): what to expect

Spend less on your phone, thanks (hopefully) to Amazon Prime Day.

22 September 2020

Nope, you didn't miss it. Amazon Prime Day 2020 hasn't happened yet. It was meant to take place in July (if you follow what happened the years before) but for obvious reasons this year is a bit of a strange one - but this doesn't mean that we are all going to miss out on a bargain.

In fact Amazon Prime Day 2020 could well be happening soon, with many a rumour mongerer pointing to a mid-October event.

Until Amazon announces the official Amazon Prime Day 2020 event, here we look back to the phone bargains that we saw last year.

There were a stack of great mobile phone deals last Amazon Prime Day. We saw Samsung Galaxy S9+ drop to £444, £399 was the price for the OnePlus 6 and Samsung's Note 9 was available for £499. You could also get the reimagined Nokia 3310 for just £24.99.

Until we know what the best Amazon Prime Day phone deals are for 2020, here are some great gift guides and the best bargains of last year (all of which are no longer available).
