Amazon's Spring Sale comes to an end after the weekend, but before those discounts depart our shelves I'd certainly check out 31 offers in particular.
I've been deal hunting for over six years now, so I know which gadgets are likely to give up their RRPs and how much you should be paying for them. With that eye for value, and real hands-on experience across a whole host of PC, PS5, and Nintendo Switch accessories, in hand I've been scouring these virtual aisles for the heaviest discounts on the best tech around.

I first started out at our sister site TechRadar, where deals were my bread and butter. As a Deals Editor, finding the right products at the right price was my day job and I brought that eye for value and nose for a discount over to GamesRadar+ five years ago. Since then I've been testing, rating, and reviewing tech and gadgets across all corners of gaming, though I specialise in the thockiest of keyboards and slickest of gaming laptops.

How I find the best Amazon Spring Sale deals for gamers
Here at GamesRadar+ we're constantly testing the latest and greatest gadgets. You can find out more about how we do this in our Hardware Policy, but suffice to say every gadget we review takes center stage in our own setups for at least two weeks before we make our final assessment. They stick around after that initial test period as well. Whenever we test a new release we're always comparing it to the devices that came before it, and cross-referencing similarly priced gadgets to make sure we're always on top of where the value sits.
To enter our top recommendation lists a product needs to pass a pretty straightforward test; would we recommend it to our friends, grandmas, and colleagues. If a product isn't good enough for us to suggest it to those closest to us, it's not good enough to sit in our buying guides. That doesn't have to mean every product is ground-shifting, it may be particularly good for a specific subset of users or a more niche need might be filled that deserves shouting out. It does, however, mean that we stand by every gadget and gizmo on these lists and regularly review them in relation to new releases.
That's the background work happening all the time. When it comes to events like Amazon's Spring Sale, things kick into overdrive. With a bank of the best gaming gadgets on the market in my arsenal I take to the virtual aisles to hunt down everything that's actually on sale. That's the fun bit, it's essentially shopping.
Now that I have a (hopefully) hefty wad of Chrome tabs open, it's down to making sure the prices are right. I check price history across a product's life to date to ensure we're at (or near) a record-low, and that discounts haven't been heavier prior to the sale event, cross-referencing at other retailers to make sure we've got a best-of-web offer on our hands.
Once I know we've got a genuine deal on a top-rated product it's allowed pride of place on this roundup.
When does the Amazon Spring Sale end?
Amazon's current Spring Sale is due to come to an end on Monday March 16, which means we've still got a good few days (and a weekend's worth of deal hunting) to find the right offers.
