Amazon has launched its own Last Minute Gifts sale this week, collecting all the products still available for delivery before the big day in one place. There’s a lot on these shelves, though, and with so many budget brands and knock-off products flying about it can be tough to find the gadgets that matter. I’ve scrolled Amazon’s entire sale to find the devices and games that will ship in time for Christmas Day, represent strong savings (they’re either at or near record-low prices), and come with our tried and tested seal of approval.
That’s cut this Christmas sale down to 11 gift options, spanning PS5, Xbox, PC, and Nintendo Switch. These are all games, gadgets, and accessories I would happily unwrap myself or gift to those around me, all at prices I would readily pay out of my own pocket. Whether you’re going big with a new console this year or you just need to know what to buy that snotty six year old with a Switch, the site’s most valuable gifts for gamers are all right here.
You’ll find my top picks just below, as well as a few need-to-know pointers about each one, but I wouldn’t put off that holiday shopping much longer. Many of Amazon’s biggest offers are already slated to ship after Christmas Day, and the shelves are going to get thinner and thinner as time goes on.
Today’s best Amazon Christmas sales
When do Amazon’s Christmas sales end?
Amazon’s official holiday sale will likely come to an end on the big day itself, December 25. However, I regularly see ‘After Christmas sales’ emerging around the same time, which means there will be more savings up for grabs once the presents are all opened as well. In general, these holiday discounts run until the first week of January, but once that’s up they really are gone.
When is Amazon’s last shipping date?
Amazon operates on a massive marketplace system, which means final shipping dates will vary between products and regions. Most popular items tend to take 1-2 days to ship with an Amazon Prime membership, but that can be extended during the busier season. I wouldn’t leave it past December 19, just to be safe.
We’re rounding up plenty more of the best PS5 gifts, best Nintendo Switch gifts, and best Xbox gifts from all across the web this week, before those final shipping dates close out.
