Given the worldwide chip shortage, we wouldn't expect many graphics cards to get the discount treatment this year. Last year, PC components saw a whopping 40% off a wide selection, including cooling fans, motherboards and memory cards from the likes of Corsair and Asus. ![]() We don’t think Amazon will stop at just Switch consoles, either. Not only will we be able to find big discounts on the Nintendo Switch, we’re expecting Amazon to discount the smaller Switch Lite as well. And we think gamers are going to be in for a treat. However, we can make educated guesses based on what happened last year. With Amazon constantly adding to its catalogue of products, it’s not easy to predict what kind of deals to expect. (Image credit: Amazon) What to expect from Prime Day 2022 We'll be sure to update this page as soon as we have official word on when Prime Day 2022 will take place in Singapore. Of course, it must be noted that these dates are as yet unconfirmed and is simply speculation based on what Amazon has historically done (with the exception of the last two years, of course). If so, that means Prime Day 2022 might officially end its Singaporean sale at 11:59pm SST on Tuesday, July 12. While an exact date is unknown at this point, it's possible that the next edition of Prime Day could start at 12am AEST on Monday, July 11. That said, we now know that Prime Day 2022 will be happening in July this year, which means things are starting to go back to normal. The tech giant was able to bring Prime Day 2021 forward to June last year – earlier than its usual mid-July timetable – and start it, as usual, on a Monday. ![]() The effects of the ongoing pandemic were felt quite strongly in 2020 and Amazon postponed Prime Day 2020 to October and kicked it off on a Tuesday – a first for Amazon either way. Typically Amazon Prime Day is held in the middle of July each year, but the last couple of years have been. When is Amazon Prime Day 2022 in Singapore? Unfortunately, that’s all the privileges Singapore Prime members are eligible for – other regions, in comparison, get free access to more Amazon services with their Prime subscriptions but they also pay way more for the privilege. While you’re paying for the privilege of free, swift delivery (although that’s currently being slowed down to make space for the essential items people are ordering), signing up for Prime means you’ll also have free access to Amazon’s streaming services, namely Prime Video and Prime Gaming (formerly known as Twitch). Prime members also get exclusive early access to deals on Amazon and, more importantly, get to shop during Prime Day. If you happen to shop for items being imported from other markets, then you’re eligible for free expedited international shipping for purchases of SG$60 and more. If you’ve spent SG$60 or more, you can have your Prime eligible shopping delivered to you in two hours! If, however, you haven’t spent that much, you’re still entitled to free delivery for any Prime eligible purchase (no minimum spend), but they will arrive in a day or two. After the 30-day free trial, you’ll be paying just SG$2.99 a month and this gets you a few perks, the biggest being free and fast delivery on products labelled ‘Prime eligible’. Singapore has one of the cheapest Prime memberships in the world. (Image credit: Amazon) What does Amazon Prime offer Singapore shoppers? If you haven’t already signed up, then you can do so now (opens in new tab) and you’ll be entitled to a 30-day free trial before you need to start paying the monthly fee. To participate in the Prime Day shopping spree though you’ll need to be an Amazon Prime member. Prime Day isn’t just about selling Amazon-branded products – several brands and third-party sellers also save their best deals for Prime Day as they know thousands of extra shoppers will be hitting the online marketplace, looking for anything from groceries to electronics and clothes. While it began as a one-day sale, by 2018 it was extended to 36 hours and, and eventually it extended to 48, even in Singapore. Prime Day then offered more deals than Black Friday and, since then, has become Amazon’s mid-year sale event when the company thanks its Prime members by offering exclusive discounts on a wide range of products.Īnother reason why Amazon hosts Prime Day each year is so it can shift staggering amounts of stock while giving eager shoppers a reason to spend their money. It all began in the US back in 2015 as a celebration of Amazon’s 20th birthday. ![]()
