Amazon Prime Day is on the horizon, and considering we've already seen a steady supply of discounts on the PS5 Slim console in the last few months things are looking good. So far this year we've seen up to $50 / £70 off the device, dropping those numbers to $449 (with a free copy of Spider-Man 2 no less) in the US and £409 in the UK. With so many offers up for grabs in the first six months of the year, then, you'd be forgiven for wondering whether you should take advantage of this year's Prime Day PS5 deals, jump in ahead of time, or wait for Black Friday.
The answer to that question depends on prices on the day, how quickly you need a new console, and whether you want to hold out for the PS5 Pro. We're exploring all these factors in this guide to summer's Prime Day festivities, taking you through the kinds of discounts you should be watching out for, the differences between buying on Prime Day and Black Friday, and helping you decide whether you want to wait and splash out on a Pro.
