The last time Amazon Prime Shipping actually took 2 days for me was pre-COVID. Now, it says 7 days but last time I ordered, it took 9 days.
Last time I bought from AliExpress, it took... 9 days. It just depends on where you're shipping from and the available shipping options. They're advertising free 12-day shipping and I've had multiple instances of items arriving early.
I guess it's all dependant on location. I'm still somewhere that Amazon prime offers free same-day on a lot of basic things, and 2 day on nearly everything else actually sold by Amazon and not just 3rd party marketplace sellers.
Also, the only things I order off aliexpress are electronic components and the like, so maybe it's a different experience for ordering normal people stuff.
