For the tech-obsessed dad
If he's permanently glued to his phone or moaning about his ancient headphones, Prime Day is prime time to upgrade him.
Smartwatches, wireless earbuds and portable speakers are reliably some of the biggest discounts of the entire sale, and brands like Beats, JBL and Anker tend to go hard on Prime Day pricing.
ON SALE NOW: Beats Powerbeats Pro 2 Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds, WAS £249.99, NOW £199.99

For the dad who lives in the garden
Cordless trimmers, pressure washers and BBQ kit are perennial Prime Day favourites, and for good reason, power tools and outdoor gear regularly see some of the steepest percentage cuts of the sale.
Advert
If he's already threatened to "sort the garden out this weekend," now's the time to make that easier for him. We vote this portable projector as the best pick, especially if he's keen to host a World Cup watch party.
ON SALE NOW: Mini Smart 4K Portable Projector, WAS £199.99, NOW £132.58

For the home bartender
Beer dispensers, whisky stones, cocktail sets, basically anything that lets him recreate the pub experience at home will be well received. Amazon has Jubel beer on offer at the minute for the sober curious, but we vote the PerfectDraft as the most realistic way to achieve a bar at home.
ON SALE NOW: PerfectDraft Phillips beer machine with Corona, WAS £249.99, NOW £198.99

For the practical dad
Electric shavers, smart luggage and decent walking shoes don't sound exciting on paper, but they're the gifts that actually get used.
Premium grooming brands like Braun and Philips often see meaningful price drops, and outdoor brands like Bulldog Skincare and Merrell are great picks.
ON SALE NOW: Bulldog Skincare Gift Set with beard oil, balm and comb, WAS £21, NOW £15

For the dad who says he "doesn't need anything"
Honestly? Just get him something small and daft. A retro gadget, a novelty mug, a ridiculous gift set.
The early Prime Day price of this Target Darts would give him something new to try out, and anything fun is proof you were thinking about him without going overboard.
ON SALE NOW: Target Darts Rift Dartboard with Optional LED Light, WAS £39.45, NOW £31.45
