Amazon Prime Day 2024 is officially over after a marathon six day stint. Most of the discounts are long gone, but below we've compiled what's left over. 

As is usually the case on Prime Day, brands like Asus, Corsair and Samsung dominated the landscape. For some inexplicable reason (presumably to do with capitalism?!) Amazon Prime Day ran for six days in Australia this year, because who gives a damn about the meaning of words.

Amazon Prime Day is all about driving subscriptions to Amazon Prime, so to make the most of the deals below you'll need to sub. I wouldn't recommend paying for this, though, because there's actually a free trial you can take advantage of. See below:

Amazon Prime Day 2024 gaming laptop deals

Asus ROG Zephyrus (GU603VV) |16-inch | i7-13620H | RTX 4060 |16GB | 512GB SSD |AU$3,099AU$2,383 at Amazon 

Asus ROG Zephyrus (GU603VV) |16-inch | i7-13620H | RTX 4060 |16GB | 512GB SSD | AU$3,099 AU$2,383 at Amazon 

While it's true there are cheaper RTX 4060 equipped laptops out there, there are few that are as well designed as the Asus ROG Zephyrus. It's a gaming laptop that doesn't look like a gaming laptop. Its 13th Gen i7 processor and color accurate 1920 x 1200 IPS screen make this a strong allrounder. It's got Thunderbolt 4 too, giving it some solid connectivity potential.

Amazon Prime Day 2024 gaming keyboard deals

Asus ROG Falchion RX Low Profile gaming keyboard |AU$279AU$209 at Amazon

Asus ROG Falchion RX Low Profile gaming keyboard | AU$279 AU$209 at Amazon (save AU$70.10)

A nice saving on this impressive, low footprint, low profile optical gaming keyboard, which fared well in Jacob's recent review. This red switch model (there's also a Blue switch option) can connect to up to three Bluetooth devices at a time, but there's also 2.4GHz wireless functionality and, of course, the option to plug it in. It may only be 26.5mm but that doesn't mean Asus has neglected to adorn it with the usual sparkling RGB.

Asus ROG Azoth gaming keyboard |AU$399AU$298 at Amazon

Asus ROG Azoth gaming keyboard | AU$399 AU$298 at Amazon (save AU$98)

This blindingly expensive mechanical keyboard is a mighty impressive affair and definitely one aimed at enthusiasts. As is increasingly the norm, it has pre-lubed hot swappable switches, with every connectivity option catered for: 2.4GHz wireless, Bluetooth, and USB-C wired. The most dazzling feature is the two-tone OLED display at the top right of the RGB-bespeckled slab. Look: it's expensive, but our review makes it sound like it's worth it. 

Corsair K100 Air Wireless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard | AU$489AU$331.36 at Amazon
Lowest price

Corsair K100 Air Wireless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard | AU$489 AU$331.36 at Amazon (save AU$157.66)

This is an all-time low price on an ultra-thin gaming keyboard that is, let's face it, normally frightfully expensive and remains so even after the discount. The K100 Air features Cherry MX ultra low profile switches and super fast 1ms latency wireless connectivity. In our review we praised its great actuation, durability and versatility.

Amazon Prime Day 2024 gaming headset deals

Logitech G PRO X 2 Lightspeed Wireless Gaming Headset | AU$449.95 AU$342.95 at Amazon

Logitech G PRO X 2 Lightspeed Wireless Gaming Headset | AU$449.95 AU$342.95 at Amazon (save AU$107)

It's perfectly understandable if you don't want to fork out AU$450 for a gaming headset. You're not alone! But maybe this drastic reduction makes it a bit more doable. This is a pro-level headset with 50mm graphene drivers, DTS:X Headphone 2.0—7.1 Surround, Bluetooth, USB and 3.5mm connectivity, and support for PC, PS5, PS4 and Nintendo Switch. Now discounted by 24% in Black, Magenta and White.

HyperX Cloud Alpha gaming headset |AU$299AU$239 at Amazon

HyperX Cloud Alpha gaming headset | AU$299 AU$239 at Amazon (save AU$60)

A nice, clean AU$60 off this respected gaming headset, which just happens to win the wired category in our best gaming headset guide. But make note: this is the wireless version! It's still a brilliant all-rounder at a reasonable price, with superlative comfort, and most importantly, outstanding audio. 

Amazon Prime Day 2024 PC gaming handhelds

Valve Steam Deck OLED 512GB (International Version) | AU$1,199AU$1,005

Valve Steam Deck OLED 512GB (International Version) | AU$1,199 AU$1,005 (save AU$194)

Because Valve doesn't care about Australia, you can't buy Steam Deck direct, nor has Valve partnered with any official Australian retailers. So the only option is to import, and at the time of writing this is the cheapest currently available. The deal includes a 45W AU charger, and is only about AU$11 more expensive than the previous low for this model.

Need more storage? You can also grab the 1TB SSD version of the OLED Steam Deck for AU$1,199

ASUS ROG Ally 512GB handheld PC console |AU$1,299AU$1,099 at Amazon

ASUS ROG Ally 512GB handheld PC console | AU$1,299 AU$1,099 at Amazon (save AU$190)

First thing's first: this has recently been usurped by the ROG Ally X, which is—as you can probably guess—frightfully expensive, starting at AU$1,599. That said, this vanilla model only released last year, and is still as a result pretty current. It boasts a 7 inch 120Hz IPS display, 16GB RAM, Windows 11, and most importantly, 512GB of SSD storage. As good as it is, it might be worth weighing with the current price of the Steam Deck OLED, which fluctuates quite a lot.

When is Amazon Prime Day 2024?

Amazon Prime Day 2024 will kick off on July 16 in Australia and run until July 21. That's a whopping six days worth of deals, which is arguably too many days.
