We are now in the final few hours of Amazon Prime Day deals but there are still so many live deals continuing to run on the best health, fitness, science and tech gear.

We have spotted some incredible deals on fitness and science essentials like air purifiers, fitness trackers, treadmills, electric toothbrushes, telescopes, microscopes, binoculars and more. We're seeing prices drop on some of our favorite brands, like Garmin, Fitbit, Apple, Celestron, AmScope and Sony.

Editor's note July 17: Our top deals so far are a MASSIVE $1000 off the Canon EOS R5 (£385 off in the UK, only two left in stock) which our Managing Editor has dubbed the 'best camera for low light shooting', a Prime Day air purifier deal with 21% off the Levoit 600S-P (Amazon's best-seller) and over $230 off the Garmin Forerunner 945 fitness tracker and smartwatch.

Or, if you're considering investing in a new bit of kit, we've written up some guides, for instance: Should you buy a Garmin this Prime Day or should you buy an air purifier. We've weighed up the pros and cons of buying now vs risking waiting for a later sales event for a potentially better deal.

Amazon Prime Day 2024 starts at midnight Tuesday July 16 and ends 23:59 Wednesday July 17. This year it is a week later than previous years, with Prime Day 2023 running Tuesday July 11 and Wednesday July 12.
