Microsoft launches One Day Sale with deals on Surface, Lumia, Xbox and more, in US and UK

Today is Amazon Prime Day, when the online retail giant offers up some spectacular deals on a wide range of exciting products (and, well, a few bits of complete tat too). But it seems Microsoft isn't keen to sit by and let Amazon gobble up its potential sales today.

Microsoft is offering quite a few deals of its own in a competing 'One Day Sale' in the US and UK, with big discounts and freebies available on a range of devices in its Surface, Lumia and Xbox ranges, along with various other products.

Below are some highlights of the top deals available - but this isn't an exhaustive list, and further offers can be found on the Microsoft Store sites on each side of the Atlantic.
