Amazon Prime Day is in full swing, but amongst the four-figure price drops and gaming PCs that require a small loan there plenty of budget offers up for grabs. I've been covering Prime Day gaming deals for years now, and in all that time I've found that it's often the deals under $50 that offer the best value day-to-day. These are your third party controllers, easy plug-and-play headsets, slightly older gaming mice, and Nintendo Switch memory cards - the bread and butter of any good setup.

I've put those years of experience in hunting down the best deals to good use, scouring Amazon's digital aisles for the biggest Prime Day gaming deals under $50. It's taken me roughly three hours to compile this list of the 34 best offers I would genuinely buy with my own money. This isn't just your bargain bucket assortment, though.

I've found official Microsoft and Sony accessories for PS5 and Xbox Series X, as well as a good few recent Switch releases as well. Prices range all the way from $7.97 to $49.99, so there's plenty of room for every budget in here.

When does Prime Day end?

Amazon Prime Day will come to an end at midnight on Thursday July 18. That means you've just got one more day after today to take advantage of this year's savings. However, I do sometimes see some cheaper tech sticking around after the final bell so some offers could last it out until the end of the week. With others already running off the shelves, though, I wouldn't wait on any discounts you like today.

Do you need a Prime membership for Prime Day?

The one thing you'll need to take advantage of today's offers is an Amazon Prime membership. That's if we're talking about Bezos's official sale, though. I'm seeing plenty of other retailers also getting in on the action this week, with Walmart and Best Buy leading the charge in competition. If you don't have a Prime membership you can either grab yourself a free 30 day trial or check alternative stores for price-matched offers.

We're also rounding up all the latest Prime Day PS5 deals as well as the Prime Day Nintendo Switch deals you need to know about. Or, for something a little pricier, check out the Prime Day gaming laptop deals we have our eyes on this year.
