Amazon Prime Day is here, and the online retail giant is busy taking orders for a massive range of gaming gadgets and gizmos. Interestingly, we can easily see which products are flying off the shelves fastest thanks to the site's 'Best Sellers' list.

This is a massive landing page that breaks down the most popular items in each category year-round, but it becomes a particularly handy tool for finding the cheapest Prime Day gaming deals. We're only a few hours into 2025's massive four-day event so far, but I've taken a gander to see what's popping off already.

1. amFilm Nintendo Switch 2 screen protector | $9.99 $8.48 at AmazonSave $1.50 -

1. amFilm Nintendo Switch 2 screen protector | $9.99 $8.48 at Amazon
Save $1.50 - This is a tiny saving, but cheaper products have further to fall in their prices. The AmFilm Nintendo Switch 2 screen protector is still Amazon's top-selling Prime Day deal so far, according to the site, and these things are flying off the shelves.

3. Amazon Luna Wireless Controller | $69.99 $39.99 at Amazon
Save $30 - Amazon's always going to dole out particularly impressive discounts to its own tech on Prime Day, and the Luna controller is no exception. I've had a play with this one, and the subscription service itself is a little lackluster still. The good news is that this gamepad is fully compatible with other launchers.

Should you trust cheaper Amazon brands?

Quite a few of Amazon's most popular Prime Day deals currently sit on budget, lesser-known brands. These are made up for the site specifically, often selling super cheap gadgets and gizmos.

Whether or not you should take advantage of these low prices depends on a few factors: how much you want to invest and what the reviews say.

How much do you want to invest?

If you're looking for a top-of-the-range gaming headset or monitor, and you have a three-figure budget to get there, these cheaper brands aren't going to offer you the kind of value you're after. If, however, you just want a functional piece of kit that won't break the bank you'll likely get on just fine with a more basic system.

These gadgets aren't designed to impress in any particular area - you won't get the best quality out there. However, they are made to fill a hole in your setup on the cheap, and that could be worth far more than a mainstream brand's high MSRP.

What do the reviews say?

Beyond making sure that the product you're buying actually has good reviews, you'll want to make sure those reviews are genuine. A lot of these cheaper brands will either pay for high scores (in which case there won't be many one or two-star reviews on the page, a red flag) or will use reviews from another listing to make their product look better. Double check that there's a good amount of 'verified purchase' reviews and that the scores are mostly positive, with a few negative outliers.
