Final Amazon Prime Day deals for gamers are now surfacing, and you only have until midnight tonight to grab subscriber savings. I'll be here sharing plenty of offers on all things PS5, Xbox, PC, and Switch related, and I'll be dropping discounts right up until the final second of the sale.
Again, Prime Day gaming deals officially wrap up at midnight tonight, July 11. That's not to say every discount will disappear off the face of the earth, as some price cuts aren't tied to Amazon's subscription. There are also plenty of rival retailers like Best Buy and Newegg dishing up their own counter events, and those savings will potentially run longer, too.
I'll be sharing the best Prime Day deals for gamers live the entire day. I've also rounded up over 30 of the top Prime Day gaming price cuts already out there, catering to everything from high-end PC gaming to budget-conscious console setups and everything in between.
I've been tracking the best Prime Day deals for gamers for five years now, starting out as a dedicated Deals Editor at our sister site TechRadar, before joining the ranks here at GamesRadar three years ago. Since then, I've been hands on with the latest and greatest releases from the brands you need to know about this week, while tracking their prices day in, day out.
That means I know a good deal when I spot one (and where to go to find them), but I've also personally tested a massive range of the tech on offer this week. I'll steer you clear of the products (and prices) to avoid all the way through this year's massive four-day Prime event.

My top 5 Prime Day deals for gamers
Today's best Prime Day deals for gamers
How I find the best Prime Day deals
Finding the best Prime Day deals for gamers starts with choosing the right products in the first place. Everything featured in my top list has undergone extensive testing by the GamesRadar+ team, from controller stress-tests to headset sound checks. We live, work, and play with every product we review for a minimum of two weeks before making our recommendations, and well beyond that timeframe after each review is published.
That means we don't test each item in a clinical lab environment - we use these gizmos exactly as you will, so that you know exactly what the experience is going to be like. Only the games and hardware offering the highest quality performance, widest feature set, and absolute best value for money are listed in this guide.
The GamesRadar+ team reviews hundreds of products every year, from the biggest and smallest brands in the game but we also use this tech day in, day out in our own lives and setups. The way we test each device differs, but you can find out more about our process via the GamesRadar+ Hardware Policy.
Once I've got my top list of products for the year, I go back in time - well, I check price histories. I watch all these listing pages all year round, so I know when a deal is out of the ordinary. The Prime Day deals listed above will all be either at (or near) their lowest ever prices, so you know you're getting the best tech at the best rate.
When will Amazon Prime Day end?
The days of time loop games are, thankfully, behind us. You're not stuck in a Groundhog Day situation, Amazon Prime Day is a four-day event this year. That means these offers will come to an end on July 11 at midnight, though I've already started to see some offers jumping back up in price already.
Is Amazon Prime Day good for gaming deals?
Amazon offers a massive range of gaming deals every year on Prime Day, but whether you consider its prices 'good' depends on what you're looking for. Peripherals like mice, keyboards, headsets, and controllers all generally see some of their best prices of the year during this sale, but I'd recommend looking to competitors for anything more technical.
Amazon struggles to keep up with larger PC retailers, so those on the hunt for gaming desktops and laptops would do better with Newegg or Best Buy. Thankfully, anti-Prime Day deals are rife this year and I'm seeing plenty of savings away from Amazon's domain.
Can you trust cheaper 'Amazon-only' brands on Prime Day?
This isn't my first rodeo, I know that the cheapest Prime Day deals for gamers often come from bizarrely-named Amazon-only brands. Of course, I'm only included the gadgets we've tested and recommended on GamesRadar+ in my top list and some of those products do fall into this category.
In general, though, you'll need to use a little common sense to know when to trust a budget buy. There are three things you'll need to look for if you're going it alone:
1. Verified reviews
A lot of these bargain brands will use fake reviews to get to the top of search pages. Look for verified purchase reviews with photos to make sure you're getting the real deal.
2. Don't trust anything with all five-star reviews
Of course, these manufacturers also pay for reviews. If that's happening, you'll see a lot of five-star reviews and almost no one-stars. That's just not realistic - even the best product in the world is going to have its haters for one reason or another. This is a major red flag for me.
3. Make sure reviews are for the product you're buying
If they're feeling particularly sneaky, a bad apple will generate a bunch of positive reviews on a listing page, only to change the product that's actually being sold there. If you see reviews mentioning features or uses that don't make sense for the product you're buying, it's time to run.

We're only halfway through this year's Prime Day deals!
That's right, normally Amazon Prime Day would be all tucked away right now but the retailer has doubled down on its summer sale in 2025. That means you'll still be able to grab discounts on all things PS5, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and PC until July 11. I'll, of course, be right here seeing you through all the newest savings.
The Super Pocket, my favorite budget handheld, is now under $50
Super Pocket TECHNOS Edition | $56.37 $47.99 at Amazon
It's arguably already extremely affordable, but the wonderful Super Pocket has dropped under $15 for Prime Day. It normally stays pretty solidly at $60 in the US, but the budget-friendly portable now has 15% off.
The Prime discount applies to the TECHNOS version of the Super Pocket, meaning it comes with 15 arcade games by that specific arcade publisher. That's great news for the retro console fans out there collecting these tiny Evercade cartridge-based systems, as you'll be able to add the blue and white variant to your collection. But, even if you're new, this cheap and cheerful console is going to bring you a lot of joy for far less than a single Switch 2 game.

This invaluable Steam Deck accessory is 20% off right now
Jsuax 20000mAh 65W Power Bank | $59.99 $47.99 at Amazon
Yes, I know chargers aren't exactly riveting, but that's why you should use Prime Day to grab something like the Jsaux 20000mAh 65W power bank for your Steam Deck. I can say without a doubt that I'd be scrambling for my AC adapter constantly if it weren't for this compact juice box, as it helps give the powerhouse a bit more stamina when handling beefy modern PC releases.
If you grab the matching Jsaux ModCase, you'll also be able to attach this 65W to the Deck like a backpack. Sadly, Prime Day hasn't discounted that cover yet, but the power bank on its own is still highly effective since it has a tailored USB-C cable at the top, an extra port for high-speed charging, and two full-size USB-A ports for your other gadgets.

Samsung's gorgeous 1440p OLED monitor is back down to its lowest price
Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 (G61SD) | $799.99 $549.99 at Amazon
Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 (G60SD) | $899.99 $649.99 at Amazon
I've tested enough gaming monitors to fill a warehouse, and the Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 is up there with the best. Not only does it boast tremendously vibrant visuals thanks to its panel and an attractive aesthetic, but you'll also get one of the top anti-glare displays out there right now for under $550, thanks to Prime Day.
It's worth keeping in mind that there are now two versions of the Odyssey OLED G6. The original's panel can hit 360Hz, whereas the slightly cheaper version sticks with 240Hz. Both are going to feel super slick in first-person shooters, but you might want to spend slightly more if you'd rather boost fps further at 1440p.

My go-to Game Boy-shaped emulator is under $60
Anbernic RG35XX Plus | $74 $58.99 at Amazon
The Anbernic RG35XX Plus is pretty much the evolution of the classic Bittboy handheld emulator that's been going for years now, and it's 20% cheaper at Amazon for Prime Day. This pocket-friendly portable is surprisingly versatile despite taking cues from the Game Boy, and it'll make for a great way to play everything from Ninty console classics to 3D PS1 capers.
There are a few listings for the RG35XX Plus at Amazon, but this grey version is the cheapest I've spotted at the retailer. If you're not fussed about the newest model, there's also a vanilla RG35XX for $42.99, but based on my testing, the Plus packs a better value punch for the money.

One of our top PS5 controller alternatives is 25% off with Prime
GameSir Tarantula Pro | $79.99 $59.99 at Amazon
Personally, I prefer Xbox-style gamepads, but if you're looking for an affordable PC controller with symmetrical Sony vibes, the GameSir Tarantula Pro will deliver for under $60. Now sitting at a record low price for Prime Day, this pad is going to work with your rig, Switch, and smartphone thanks to Bluetooth and 2.4GHz wireless connectivity.
The main audience for this controller is potentially those of you who've been using a Dualshock to play PC games for years, but would like a fresher controller with perks like back buttons. It also boasts hall-effect thumbsticks, so it'll potentially outlast the old PS4 controller too, and fight off the dreaded stick drift.

The Steam Deck dock I use daily is discounted and comes with a freebie
Baseus 6-in-1 Steam Deck dock | $39.99 $31.99 at Amazon
Not to big myself up, but I was one of the first to publish Steam Deck dock reviews on the internet, so I know a thing or two about docking stations for the handheld. With that in mind, the Baseus 6-in-1 Steam Deck dock remains my favorite due to its solid build quality, thoughtful design elements, and trendsetting adjustable cradle, and it's down in price for Prime Day.
Now, it's worth noting that the Baseus 6-in-1 has dipped under $30 in the past, but there's more to this specific deal than meets the eye. If you add the company's 100W USC cable to your cart too, you'll get that thrown in for free, which is neat since it comes armed with a tiny LED stats screen. The bundle naturally means you're getting a better offer than before, as the wire retails for $18.99. If you do want the cable on its own, though, it's going for $15.19 at Amazon thanks to Prime Day.

Give your Steam Deck the gift of extra storage this Prime Day
WD Black SN770M M.2 SSD | $139.99 $84.99 at Amazon
The Steam Deck seems to be living in my head rent-free today (no surprises there), so I thought I'd share one of the best upgrades you can make to the handheld. Using a nifty Prime Day discount, you can grab a compatible WD Black SN770M M.2 SSD and give your portable a huge storage upgrade, which could save you eyeing up other devices for a little while.
Instinctively, I'd say this 2230 M.2 SSD will benefit those of you with an older 64GB model most, although it'll still double the capacity of the top Steam Deck OLED available. This drive is also compatible with the Asus ROG Ally and various other portable PCs, so you don't have to be on team Valve to pick this one up.
Featured in: Best Steam Deck accessories
Sony's slick Inzone H5 PS5 headset is 15% cheaper with Prime
Sony Inzone H5 gaming headset | $149.99 $128 at Amazon
If you're seeking a Sony-branded headset for your PS5, you'll certainly want to check out the Inzone H5. While this pair of cans doesn't quite have a seat at our best gaming headset table, it's still a solid audio solution for the PlayStation 5 that'll be super comfortable and will work with your PC too.
Prime Day has knocked 15% off the Inzone H5, which brings it back down to its lowest ever price. It is on the pricey side even with a discount, but if you want solid PS5 spatial audio and something that looks the part, this could be the headset for you.

Our best budget controller pick just hit a new record low
EasySMX X10 PC Controller | $49.99 $26.49 at Amazon
Even at full price, the EasySMX X10 is what we'd call a solid budget PC controller. But, apparently, Prime Day wasn't content with that MSRP, so the sale has dropped it to under $30 for subscribers.
The 47% discount knocks the EasySMX to a new record low at Amazon, and honestly, I'd be surprised if you find a better value gamepad for under $27. The controller comes armed with hall-effect joysticks, back buttons, and even removable faceplates - all traits that normally apply to premium pads. This is absolutely a deal worth instantly adding to your cart before stock vanishes.

Holding onto your old Switch? The Nitro Deck will revamp the handheld for under $50
CRKD Nitro Deck Limited Edition | $79.99 $47.99 at Amazon
I don't know about you, but I've gotten used to the feel of bulkier handhelds like the Steam Deck. Therefore, the idea of giving the OG Switch more heft using a controller grip with the Nitro Deck sounds ideal, and the limited edition Gamecube version is now under $50 thanks to Prime Day.
This is actually a record low on the Gamecube-themed model, which is great since it's arguably the best-looking version. That said, no matter what colorway you settle for, you'll get hall-effect thumbsticks and ergonomic grips that could save you from thinking about the Switch 2 for a little while.

This tiny Atari retro console time capsule is now under $80
Atari 400 Mini | $90.42 $76.16 at Amazon
Plug and play retro consoles were all the rage in the late 2010s, but systems like the Atari 400 Mini are still delivering an excellent pint-sized way to play the classics. I've been watching a specific listing for a while that allows you to order the device via Amazon Germany for far less than in the US, and it's now sitting under $80 for the first time.
You'll get free delivery despite it technically being an import, and the German version is virtually the same as the one sold in the US. That means playing plenty of microcomputer capers using HDMI and having the ability to run your own Atari 5200 and 8-bit ROMs, something that'll make playing games from decades ago far easier.

Reminder: The Lenovo Legion Go S is under $500
Lenovo Legion Go S (Windows 11) | $729.99 $499.99 at Best Buy
If you've been searching for the perfect handheld gaming PC over Prime Day, you've no doubt already come across the Lenovo Legion Go S. If not, then you'll want to go check out the Steam Deck rival since it has dropped under $500 at Best Buy. The offer means you're getting an 8-inch device with an 1080p 120Hz display, adjustable triggers, and all the versatility of Windows 11 for less than a 512GB Steam Deck OLED model.
Admittedly, Windows 11 is a blessing and a curse, but I can confirm the Legion Go S makes up for that with nicer controls than its predecessor and solid build quality. Performance is on par with the Steam Deck, though, so if you want something that packs a greater punch, you'll want to start with the Asus ROG Ally.

Tomb Raider collection for Super Pocket and Evercade is how much?!
Evercade Tomb Raider Collection | $24.99 $10.31 at Amazon
I'm not used to seeing big discounts on Evercade cartridges in the US, but Amazon has knocked the Tomb Raider collection to just over $10. That feels pretty wild for a cart with the first three PS1 outings, and you'll be able to use it with everything from the Super Pocket to the Evercade Alpha arcade machines.
Earlier, I shared that the Super Pocket is now under $50 thanks to Prime Day. I don't know about you, but the idea of grabbing a handheld and three Tomb Raider games for under $60 sounds pretty phenomenal, and it'll save you faffing around with emulation nonsense.

The newer version of our best budget PC pick has been Prime Day'd
iBUYPOWER Slate MESH (SMI7N5701) | $1,799.99 $1,529.99 at Amazon
If you've been itching to get a new PC for all those massive games en route, you'll want to check out this build. It's similar to the one featured in our iBUYPOWER Slate MP8 003 review, but includes a newer Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 GPU. That'll be more than enough horsepower to hit demanding system requirements, and a 15% Prime Day discount means you can grab it for a new record low price.
Specs | Intel Core i7 14700F CPU, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 12GB GPU, 32GB DDR5 RGB 5,200MHz RAM, 1TB NVMe SSD

Squeak squeak
I've always been a fan of gaming accessories, and mice are amongst my favorite. You can currently pick up the Logitech G Pro X for a heavily reduced $132.99 at Amazon instead of the normal $179.99, and although it's a bit pricier, you're getting a superlight pointer from one of the best in the business here.
Into the shadows
The latest Assassin's Creed game has done an eagle dive to $47.49 at Amazon, so if you've yet to try the Japan-based adventure, now's your chance. For our money, this is one of the best entries in the series for a while.
Sound off, pals - have you managed to secure any good deals as part of this year's Prime Day gaming discounts? If you've bought a bargain or secured something that's been languishing on your wishlist for ages, let us know in the comments below.
If I had to pick anything from this year's Prime Day gaming deals, I'd likely take a look at securing a new mouse. Although I adore my trusty ol' pointer, it's seen better days and could probably do with a refresh. If you're in the same boat, worry not - there are plenty of offers available right now for gaming-specific mice.
Switch 2, where are you?
Can we expect to see any Switch 2-shaped price cuts as part of the Prime Day gaming discounts? Unfortunately, I doubt it. Getting the console at all is hard enough right now and stock is elusive, so the best we can hope for is a reduction on accessories (non-official ones though, I can't imagine Nintendo will allow savings so soon) and games.
Packaged and competitively priced
Here's a case in point to back up that last comment on Switch 2 stuff; one of the best offers I've seen for Ninty's new console isn't actually the console itself, but on a case for it. You can grab the Orzly case for just $23.52 at Amazon, down from $35. Because Orzly is such a well-respected brand, that's an absolute bargain.
A knightly deal
One of the games that impressed us most this year was Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, and would you look at that? It's currently a lot less as part of 2025's Prime Day gaming deals - you can grab it for $37.99 at Amazon rather than $60+. Lovely stuff.
This Prime Day deal will give your Switch a TV boost
Marseille mClassic Switch edition | $99.99 $74.99 at Amazon
I've joked in the past saying the mClassic is like life support for the original Nintendo Switch. That's perhaps a bit harsh on the old handheld, but what it will do for under $80 is upscale your visuals and smooth out some of the rough textures the portable puts out in TV mode. This is a record low price on the dongle, and the new blue version boasts a specific anti-aliasing algorithm for the OG Switch.
This gaming mouse is also a Stream Deck
Seriously, the Corsair Scimitar Elite Wireless SE is my favorite MMO mouse on the market right now, and not just because its 12-button side array is particularly well tensioned to avoid accidental keypresses. No, the wide-base rodent can also be used as a full Virtual Stream Deck - a fantastic feature for both streamers and productivity powerhouses.
It's currently down to $89.99 for the first time in its life, and considering this is a recent release that's not a very long life at all. I've only ever seen it at $99.99 once in the past, during a brief flash sale.

PSA: Best Buy isn't price matching Prime Day deals
Best Buy usually price matches with Amazon's offers, which can be handy if you want to pick something up in-store on the day itself. However, there's one exclusion that means none of this week's Prime Day deals are included in the offer.
The Best Buy Price Match Guarantee FAQs state that any deal that is "only available to select groups of customers including Membership Program members" is exempt from its service. If you need a Prime membership to access a deal, Best Buy won't be matching your price.
I'm still seeing new Prime Day deals landing
Amazon is still launching new Prime Day deals on day three of this year's event, though newer offers are a little less exciting than the day-one blockbusters I'm highlighting up top. Newer savings are hitting cheaper PS5 games like Spongebob Squarepant: The Patrick Star Game (now $17.94) and a range of Glorious's tech (most notably, the Glorious Model D Wireless gaming mouse, now $37.99).
Will more offers follow? Looking at the shelves right now, I'm a little more optimistic that we'll continue to see new Prime Day deals dropping through the course of today. Amazon generally reserves a few discounts for the last moments of its sale, but it never drops them too late. If you need a little more inspiration, it's worth sticking around for today - I'm anticipating fewer new drops tomorrow.
PSA: I'm seeing a lot more Prime-only deals this year
Yeah, you've always needed a Prime membership for the truly outstanding Prime Day deals - but previous years have allowed plenty of regular savings to slip the net as well. That's not quite so true for 2025.
I'm seeing that Prime-only badge on a lot more discounts than usual at the moment, and retailers like Walmart and Best Buy aren't keeping up. This might be the first Amazon Prime Day where a Prime membership is actually needed to take part properly.
My number one top tip: price check
I know I know, Amazon's looking pretty good right now - but not for everything. While gaming mice, keyboards, and headsets are all shining on those shelves today, other categories are falling behind. I'm seeing much better Prime Day deals on gaming laptops, PC components, controllers, and storage devices at other stores. Best Buy, Newegg, and Walmart are winning in certain areas and on certain products.
That's why it's so important to price match before you head to checkout.
Amazon is putting much less emphasis on Lightning Deals this year
I've just had a scroll through the Prime Day Deals landing page, and I've finally put my finger on what feels different. In years gone by, I've always had to fend off a big old banner of lightning deals at the top of the page. This year? It's gone.
Sure, you'll see the odd countdown on a 'trending deal' at the top of the page, but there's no stack of rotating savings to scroll through. I'm not complaining, these offers were generally pretty poor in previous years - it seems Amazon might have got the memo.
Amazon just beat Walmart's price on this budget Razer mouse
Razer Basilisk V3 | $69.99 $36.08 at Amazon
The Razer Basilisk V3 is a must-see for me, every Prime Day. That's because this is already the best value gaming mouse I've tested so far, and it's no stranger to additional discounts. Walmart was winning this race for the first few days of the sale, offering the V3 at $39 where Amazon was nearly a buck more expensive. With a few extra dollars off the final price today though, Bezos is fighting back.

The Meta Quest 3S comes in an exclusive bundle at Amazon (with a $50 discount)
Meta Quest 3S (128GB) | $299.99 $249.99 at Amazon
The Meta Quest 3S has generally only ever shipped with Batman, but now you can grab it with the Gorilla Tag Cardboard Hero bundle for $50 off. Considering the headset itself has only ever hit $269.99 in previous sales, and it's one of the best VR headsets Duncan has tested so far, that's a must-see.
I use these earbuds every day, and they're finally on sale
SteelSeries Arctis Game Buds | $199.99 $147.99 at Amazon
The SteelSeries Arctis Game Buds have become a staple of both my PC setup and my dog walking routine. With excellent audio, both Bluetooth and 2.4GHz wireless connections, and a sturdy battery life I've abandoned my AirPods for them all together.
That's why I've been watching that price like a hawk this Prime Day and finally my efforts have paid off. The Xbox version (compatible across all consoles and PC) is now down to $147.99 at Amazon, a record breaking $52 discount overall. Did I mention these are also the best gaming earbuds we've tested so far?
You'll want to head to Best Buy if you're after a gaming laptop
Amazon does have its fair share of gaming laptop deals available this Prime Day, but Best Buy is doing the job far better. While Amazon's prices are still a little too high on older RTX 40-Series machines, the yellow-label store has a wealth of RTX 50-Series rigs on sale right now, with RTX 5060 machines starting at $1,159.99.
That's the price you'll pay for an Asus TUF F16, a new-generation machine with a fantastic 32GB RAM and an Intel i7-14650HX processor. Those aren't specs you'll find this close to $1,000 any other day of the year.
Asus TUF F16 RTX 5060 gaming laptop | $1,539.99 $1,159.99 at Best Buy
Yes, I know batteries are boring, but they're a Prime Day essential
Breathing new life into some old kit? There's a cheaper way to do that. A Game Boy doesn't exactly rinse through AAs, but if you find yourself on a roll you'll realize just how many packs your parents went through back in the day. This rechargeable kit banishes the worry altogether, coming in at less than $20 this Prime Day.
Rechargeable 3600mWh AA Batteries with Charger | $25.99 $19.54 at Amazon
Is it time to pick up Mario & Luigi: Brothership?
I'm a huge Mario fan, but even I didn't get Mario & Luigi Brothership when it launched, partly because we were hearing so many rumblings about a Switch 2 at the time. Now that it's discounted and we know more about the backward compatibility situation with Switch 2, this feels like a much better time to pick it up.
If you and the co-op partner in your life need a new adventure to go on, or you want to kickstart your Switch 2 library, this might be the brothership to board.
Mario & Luigi: Brothership | $39.99 at Best Buy | $37 at Amazon (EU version)
Looking for a new set of wireless earbuds that don't break the bank?
It can be really tricky to find a decent set of wireless earbuds for less than $100, and with so many brands out there, who do you trust? The EarFun Air Pro 4 give you excellent sound quality for just $55.99 at Amazon right now, which is honestly a silly price to pay for a set of buds this good.
I've used these for listening to music when I'm out and about, I've paired them with the Meta Quest 3, and, thanks to a low-latency mode, I've used them to play games too. There's superb active noise cancelling here that even the high wind speeds in Scotland struggle to compromise, and the EarFun app lets you customize sound profiles. For under $60, this is an excellent deal.
EarFun Air Pro 4 | $79.99 $55.99 at Amazon
Friendly reminder that you can get our favorite pro controller for cheaper right now
The Xbox version of our favorite pro controller hasn't come down from its $179.99 price tag often since launch, but right now you can get the white version for $10 cheaper. If you're looking for a gamepad that'll take the fight to mouse and keyboard players head-on, there aren't many with as much functionality as the Victrix Pro BFG for Xbox.
As you'll see from the image above, it has a modular build, which means you can take its facial components out and flip 'em around, or swap 'em for a fightpad module that gives you six face buttons. On the back are four excellent back buttons, and there are lots of other stick gates and tops to choose from in the case as well.
Victrix Pro BFG for Xbox | $179.99 $169.99 at Amazon
Final Fantasy Rebirth is back down to its Black Friday price
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth | $69.99 $39.99 at Amazon
Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth has returned to its lowest price yet at Amazon, with a $30 discount I haven't seen since Black Friday last year. This is one of GamesRadar+'s favorite PS5 games, so grabbing it for under $40 is a steal.
The 8BitDo Ultimate controller is now cheaper than ever
8BitDo Ultimate | $44.99 $21.60 at Amazon
The 8BitDo Ultimate has only ever been on sale for $29.99 in the past, but this year's Prime Day deals are taking us just a little bit further past that position this year. You'll find the wired Xbox controller up for just $21.60 right now, that's $8 cheaper than ever before.

So close to a record-low
The Baseus 6-in-1 Steam Deck dock is just $2 away from its lowest ever price at Amazon right now. Considering it hasn't been cheaper than this since Black Friday last year, and it's the best Steam Deck dock Phil's tested so far, this is still a win. You're getting a solid build quality, wide range of connections, and a handy cradle all in one affordable package here.

My favorite gaming laptop is on sale
HP Omen Max 16 (RTX 5090) | $3,599.99 $3,099.99 at HP
The HP Omen Max 16 is the best gaming laptop I've tested so far, and it's no stranger to discounts. The 16-inch powerhouse impressed in both its performance and design when I had it on the test bench a few weeks ago, and its RTX 5090 configuration is now $500 off.
That's still a lofty price tag, but take a look at other RTX 50-Series flagships and you might just breathe a sigh of relief here. I've seen plenty of discounts on the HP Omen Max 16 so far (that's part of the reason I recommend it so highly), but savings normally stick to cheaper RTX 5070 and RTX 5080 models.

This gaming chair massively improves posture
Razer Iskur V2 gaming chair | $649 $399.99 at Amazon
The Razer Iskur V2 is already solid in its construction and provides that sleek look so many turn to this Sneki brand for. Its real strength, however, lies in its lumbar support. An inbuilt cushioning system can be adjusted in three directions (vertically, horizontally, and in depth) - that's the most sophisticated we've tested so far. Ben reviewed this one last year and hasn't had to swap seats since.
Did I mention, it's also now $50 cheaper than its normal sales price?

My favorite gaming keyboard is still discounted
SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL Gen 3 | $219.99 $186.99 at Amazon
Ah, the SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL Gen 3. A Hall effect keyboard like no other. This is a pedigree deck (SteelSeries has been using magnetic switches a little longer than the competition), so it's nailed the switch feel under each cap. You're getting adjustable actuation points from 0.1mm through to the full 4mm here, as well as two-step functionality baked in.
That's all pretty standard for a Hall effect model, what makes the SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL Gen 3 the best I've tested yet is how it feels under the fingertips. All keyboards like this are a little woollier than their mechanical counterparts, but SteelSeries adds far more texture to each press. That means I know exactly how far I am down the stem at any moment, a godsend when getting used to having multiple functions on one key.

Need a new screen?
Alienware AW2725DF OLED gaming monitor | $899.99 $599.99 at Amazon
This is the first time I've seen the Alienware AW2725DF drop below $649.99, with an extra $50 taking us to a $599.99 record-low price. That's a healthy discount by itself, especially when you take that gorgeous QD-OLED panel and 360Hz refresh rate into account.
This is one of the best gaming monitors we've tested so far, and it's at that perfect age right now. Its specs are still plenty powerful, and will be able to push even more modern PCs and gaming laptops - but it's spent enough time on the shelves to take some serious price cuts. That's a recipe for excellent value.
There's never been a better time to grab Super Mario Party Jamboree
Super Mario Party Jamboree | $59.99 $52.99 at Amazon
Thanks to the Switch 2 and its backward compatibility, picking up Super Mario Party Jamboree for the original handheld and grabbing the $19.99 Switch 2 upgrade pack later on July 24 will save you more cash than simply buying the $79 Switch 2 boxed version.
This already budget-friendly wireless headset is cheaper than ever thanks to Prime Day
It's been months since I tested the Corsair Void Wireless V2, and I'm still taken aback by how wonderful this budget-friendly gaming headset sounds.
Whether it was a hectic match of Marvel Rivals on the PS5 or an anxiety-inducing survivor match of Dead by Daylight, the Void V2 and its custom 50mm Neodymium audio drivers let me hear every inch of my favorite online games' soundscapes with crystal clarity. Plus, setting it up via Bluetooth or via its 2.4GHz wireless dongle was a breeze, and I rarely had to think about charging, as it provides up to 70 hours worth of playtime.

This SteelSeries headset is a match made in Switch 2-heaven and it's now less than $100
SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5X Wireless headset | $149.99 $99.74 at Amazon
The SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5 Wireless doesn't just sound fantastic, but it is fantastic as this mid-range marvel gains you access to hundreds upon hundreds of official game audio presets that make everything from Dead by Daylight to Mario Kart World sound their absolute best.
With the Arctis app by your side, you can hook up this wireless headset and choose between a huge range of these presets, or mess around with your own personalized EQ via the GG PC software. Even without the presets to play around with, the 5 Wireless sounds sublime with its 40mm Neodymium drivers, and you're getting it for less than $100 this Prime Day.

Split Fiction is the PS5 Prime Day deal that keeps on giving
Split Fiction | $49.99 $35 at Amazon
Hazelight's latest co-op game is not only down to a record-low $35 at Amazon this Prime Day, but grabbing this PS5 game right now also gains you an additional copy. Thanks to the "friends pass" system, you can get an extra copy of the game to play through with a friend, for no additional cost.
Kicking off the end of Prime Day with a flippin' great handheld discount
Anbernic RG35XXSP | $89.99 $69.99 at Amazon
No, your eyes aren't deceiving you - that does look like a Game Boy Advance SP. If you're unacquainted with this handheld, allow me to introduce you to the RG35XXSP. It's effectively a handheld emulator that's dressed up exactly like the 2000s clamshell console, but it'll run a whole host of retro consoles. Its current price is a record low for the GBA SP homage at Amazon, and while it's pretty similar to other budget Anbernic advises, they can't flip open like your dad's old cell phone (or mine, for that matter).

Psst, UK PS5 players can get the PlayStation Portal for less right now
PlayStation Portal | £199.99 £179.99 at Amazon
I rarely see PlayStation Portal discounts, but Amazon UK has knocked 10% off the remote player handheld. The deal brings it back down to last year's lowest price, and since the device now has cloud gaming abilities using PlayStation Plus, it's actually better value for money than before. It might rely on an internet connection, but you're not going to find a portable with full integrated controls like this, not at least until the fabled PS Vita 2 emerges.

This is the closest thing to a graphics card deal I've spotted this Prime Day
ASUS PRIME GeForce RTX 5070 OC + $110 gift card | $699.99 $659.99 at Amazon
This GeForce RTX 5070 discount knocks $40 off the custom graphics card at Newegg, but it's still miles away from its base $549 price tag. However, there's a sneaky $110 gift card included in this offer, and if you deduct the value of that from the reduced price, it will actually match Nvidia's MSRP for the mid-range GPU. I would have preferred to see an actual discount take it lower than its suggested tag, but if you're building a PC right now, this will help you save some cash.

This is a ridiculously wide OLED monitor with a huge price cut
Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 (G91SD) | $1,299.99 $879.99 at Amazon
The Odyssey OLED G9 is frankly a monster of a gaming monitor, and its price tag normally keeps me from trying to squeeze it into my setup. However, Prime Day is really pushing my resilience by knocking it under $900 to a record low price, and I'm hoping I can resist the temptation of its wraparound OLED brilliance. This panel is absolutely for premium PC players looking for pique immersion, but its new price means more of you will be able to grab one than usual.
My best gaming phone pick has been Prime Day'd in the UK
Asus ROG Phone 9 Pro | £1,099 £949 at Amazon
It doesn't matter what way you spin it, the Asus ROG Phone 9 Pro is pretty expensive. But, UK mobile gaming fans can grab it for less in the UK thanks to Prime Day, as it's now sitting under $1,000 thanks to a 14% discount. The tech brand's latest cell phone is going to smash through practically anything you throw at it, pumping out high frame rates on its 165Hz display. Plus, you can even play a little spaceship shooter on the back using its little AniMe display, which makes it feel even more like a phone for gamers.

Hold up, why haven't you grabbed this incredibly tiny retro handheld yet?
Anbernic RG28XX | $54 $43.99 at Amazon
Yes, I'm talking to you, the retro lover who hasn't jumped on the Anbernic RG28XX for under $50 yet. We're talking about a handheld that takes cues from the GBA Micro that can happily run everything up to the PS1 and Dreamcast. I use it regularly to dive into Crash Team Racing and have yet to encounter any performance issues, which is bananas since it's smaller than a candy bar.

I've been testing this Switch 2 dock over Prime Day, and it's now down in price
SIWIQU Nintendo Switch 2 dock | $35.79 $28.63 at Amazon
Following a month of no third-party docks for the Switch 2, we finally have one that works at Amazon. Better still, it's actually under $30 for Prime Day, and while I'll be sharing a full review soon, it's pretty serviceable as a secondary docking station. There are user reviews live that, quite rightly, detail initial firmware issues with TV connectivity, but those have now been updated, and new models will ship with an update.
One of the nicest "Switch Pro" controllers out there is now under $50
8Bitdo Ultimate Bluetooth Controller | $69.99 $47.98 at Amazon
Our 8Bitdo Ultimate Bluetooth Controller review dubs the gamepad as "a superb gamepad with heaps of customization," and it's now going for under $50 thanks to Prime Day. This pad will work with Switch 2, but the main reason to pick one up is its solid build quality, included charging stand, and straightforward customization. When you compare its price to the new Switch 2 pro controller, it's clear to see why it's an absolute winner.

A punchy multi-platform gaming headset with $75 off
Logitech G Astro A50 X wireless gaming headset | $399.99 $324.99 at Amazon
The Astro A50 X is our best multi-platform headset pick, and with good reason. While it's got a pretty lofty price tag, it provides marvellous console and PC compatibility and excellent fidelity to boot. If you've been looking for an all-in-one audio solution, but couldn't stomach paying $400, you'll absolutely want to grab this pair of cans for under $325 before Prime Day ends.

Grab a speedy gaming monitor for just over $100
KOORUI 24-inch 200Hz gaming monitor | $159.99 $109.99 at Amazon
It might not be a familiar brand, but after spending a bunch of time testing the 240Hz KOORUI GN02 playing PC shooters and PS5 games at 120Hz, I can confirm the screens boast excellent value. They're firmly budget panels, but if you simply need a 1080p display that can hit well above 120Hz, you'll want to grab 31% off this 200Hz model before Prime Day ends.
I adore this Pac-Man pro controller, and it's cheaper for Prime Day
PowerA Pac-Man wireless controller | $99.99 $74.99 at Amazon
I'm not saying I don't love this Pac-Man controller simply because it's covered in ghosts and glows in the dark. But, that is genuinely enough to sell me on this gamepad, but if you need more of a reason to grab 25% off, just know it also has hall-effect thumb sticks, 2.4Ghz connectivity, and mappable back buttons. It's also designed for Xbox and PC, so it's pretty versatile as a pad for either.
I'd grab this affordable OLED monitor for under $500 while it's still hot
KTC G27P6 27-inch OLED gaming monitor | $579.99 $492.99 at Amazon
Not long ago, 1440p OLED gaming monitors would set you back $1,000. The turning point for me was when I got hands-on with the KTC G27P6, as it's a budget-conscious display that packs a QHD 240Hz LG OLED panel into a more affordable package. I've actually been waiting for it to drop under $500 again so I could tell you all to buy one, and Prime Day has finally made that happen.
Pikachu, I choose you!
If you want the most adorable desk buddy or something to go on your shelf at home, I challenge you to find something nicer than Mega's Jumbo Pikachu model. Besides being a dead ringer for the Pokemon, it's heckin' adorable and is also down to $41.99 at Amazon instead of the usual $63.71. When you consider the 85% five-star Amazon user rating, it feels like a safe bet.
You don't have long left
If you still have goodies in your basket that you haven't pulled the trigger on yet, I'd highly recommend heading to checkout soon. The Prime Day gaming sale is starting to wind down, and it'll be over in a few hours. I've already started to see some discounts evaporate, so speed is of the essence if you want to avoid disappointment.
The Razer Iskur V2 is out of stock at Amazon
This one moved fast, the Iskur V2 is now officially out of stock at Amazon, after dropping its price all the way down to $399.99 for Prime Day. Don't fret, though, you can still find the same record-breaking discounts available at Razer.

The Corsair Void V2 Wireless has also gone
Amazon has also run out of stock on the Corsair Void V2 Wireless, one of our favorite PS5 headsets and one that was previously seeing a record-low $85.49 sale price. There's an extra horse in this race, though.
Best Buy's Black Friday in July sale still has the cups available for the same rate and doesn't end until Sunday. That means there's still a little time to score the year's biggest saving.

The SteelSeries Arctis Game Buds have jumped back up the price scale
My favorite gaming earbuds were previously taking a particularly rare discount at Amazon, down below $150. Those numbers have shifted slightly north this morning, though only by $5. These are still worth a purchase, even at $152.99 (these are full price day to day) but we're a little further away from the previous record-low now.

Prefer over-ear? The SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless is much cheaper at Best Buy
Best Buy is winning for Prime Day deals on the SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless right now. The yellow-label store has the best gaming headset I've ever tested down at $255.99 (for the PS5 version) this week. That's not quite its lowest price yet, but it's only about $30 away and Amazon is still asking for more than $300.
This is a premium set of cups, and my go-to for console play. Simultaneous 2.4GHz and Bluetooth audio, fantastic sound quality, a slick retractable microphone, and hot-swappable batteries set this flagship apart from the rest. Not only that, but I personally prefer this slick white look as well.

PSA: Best Buy's anti-Prime Day sale doesn't end until Sunday
This week's Prime Day deals may come to an end at midnight at Amazon, but Best Buy's going for the full week. The competing retailers offers won't close out until Sunday, which means you've still got another two days to hunt down the perfect saving.
Nintendo Switch games are $39.99 at Best Buy
Major Nintendo Switch game sales don't come around too often, generally only sticking to the odd Black Friday (and even last year's discounts were barren). Prime Day has come through, though with everything from Splatoon to Super Mario Odyssey going under the knife at Best Buy - these are the games I'd recommend first.
Super Mario Odyssey | $59.99 $39.99 at Best Buy
Animal Crossing: New Horizons | $59.99 $39.99 at Best Buy
Kirby's Return to DreamLand Deluxe | $59.99 $39.99 at Best Buy
When does Prime Day officially end?
When oh when will it end?
Midnight tonight, actually. That's right, it's now only a matter of hours before 2025's Amazon Prime Day deals officially close out. That means it's time to start wrapping up that cart and scouting out any last minute discounts you might have missed.
Psst, this much-cheaper gaming headset has the same drivers and microphone as the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro
Razer BlackShark V2 HyperSpeed | $129.99 $89.99 at Amazon
The Razer BlackShark V2 Pro is our top PC gaming headset, but the Hyperspeed model still offers the same microphone and audio quality. It's also far cheaper this Prime Day, with an $89.99 sale price coming in lower than ever before. I generally only ever see these cups in the $90s during sales.
The HyperSpeed doesn't have the same kind of premium build quality as its older sibling, but it still packs the same audio punch and benefits from that super wideband microphone to boot.

Split Fiction | $49.99 $35 at Amazon
We gave Split Fiction a 4.5/5 in our review and I've enjoyed previous co-op shenanigans from Hazelight, so maybe Prime Day's $15 discount is the push I need to finally bit the bullet. I've got the spare controller, I've got the player two - and at this record-low price, it's time to finally see what the makers of It Takes Two have been up to.

There's still time to grab some last-minute essentials...
If you've gathered together some PC components for a fresh build using Prime Day deals, or you're planning to put one together later in the year, these fading hours of the sale can be a great time to grab the smaller things that people usually forget about.
Duncan put a handy guide together for these essential PC building and upgrading goodies, and he's found deals for all of them. Chief among them is the Amazon screwdriver kit photographed above, which is going for just $8.49 down from $10.35.
Speaking of PC building, now is a great time to pick up some DDR5 RAM
If you're yet to upgrade to DDR5 RAM, there are a few 32GB kits in this year's Prime Day sale that are calling your name. It's now easier than ever to get 32GB of DDR5 for under $100, and our favorite budget DDR5 is proof of that.

This 20,000mAh power bank is now under $50
JSAUX 20,000mAh 65W power bank | $59.99 $47.99 at Amazon
A massive 20,000mAh 65W power bank is all you need to keep your handhelds topped up, and Phil's been using this very charger for all their devices recently. It's just dropped down below $50 for the first time, but this Prime Day deal on one of the best Steam Deck accessories we've tested yet won't last much longer.
PSA: Amazon is now handing out Nintendo Switch 2 invites
If you're hunting down some Prime Day Nintendo Switch 2 stock you might be in luck. Earlier in the week, Amazon started taking invite applications for the new generation handheld. That's a big deal, this online retailer has been silent on Ninty's new device since the pre-order stage. This is the first time I've seen it on Amazon's shelves.

Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 DEX | $179.99 $132.99 at Amazon
I've been staring at that Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 DEX price for weeks now and it hasn't budged. Finally, Prime Day has brought some good news. My favorite gaming mouse has dropped below its previous record-low price, taking a full $47 discount to $132.99.
That's not bad for the best rodent I've tested yet, and especially impressive considering it's only ever been $139.99 in rare past sales.

If you're looking to sneak in some last minute Prime Day deals you'll need a membership to take advantage of the biggest offers still live right now. Those aged between 18 and 24 can save before they've even found a discount, though.
The $14.99 monthly price has been cut in half for young adults, which means you can gain access to all the perks for just $7.49.

The official Xbox Series X controller is finally on sale
Xbox Wireless Controller | $64.99 $47.49 at Amazon
The Xbox Wireless Controller is unlikely to return to its $39.99 record-low since Microsoft raised its MSRP earlier this year, but it's just pushed past its previous $59.99 sales price at Amazon. You can now find the official gamepad for $47.49, a 27% discount on that lofty $64.99 starting rate. That brings it back down to the kinds of day-to-day prices I used to see before those increases.
Speaking of Xbox
You can try Game Pass for $1
Gone are the days of monthly Game Pass memberships for a dollar, now we've got a two week trial at this discounted price. Still, I'd take it over nothing - and considering how slim Game Pass deals themselves have been in the last couple of years, there's really very little else out there.
This is a service I use constantly though, whether I'm on a handheld like the Asus ROG Ally, on my gaming laptop, or streaming via a tablet. It's pricey, but it's the best catalog on the web and there are some nifty cross-play features if you upgrade to Ultimate as well.

This little retro-themed display is just there to make your desk look as cute as possible, but it also doubles up as a Bluetooth speaker, and it's still on sale this Prime Day. This is a saving perfect for those cozy PC setups.

Hey horror game fans, the boxed version of Alan Wake 2 is still around this Prime Day
Physical horror games are weird in that they can become collector's items very fast. If there's any spooky games you've been wanting to pick up, I always recommend grabbing them as soon as you can before resellers get their hands on them.
This copy of Alan Wake 2 is an especially great deal for horror fans, as it not only comes with all the DLC but also a digital copy of Alan Wake Remastered, which is perfect for anyone new to this series.

Pssst, it's still cheaper to grab Tears of the Kingdom on Amazon over the Switch 2 Edition
Over on Amazon, the original Switch version of Tears of the Kingdom is down to $56.90, and if you're already a paying Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack member, you can get its Switch 2 upgrade as part of your membership for no additional cost.
It's saving on Amazon today might be small, but grabbing it means you can get access to the new version of the game for far less than its $79 MSRP. In fact, even if you buy the Switch 2 upgrade pack separately for $9.99 at Amazon, that will still save you $12 off that pricey Switch 2 boxed copy.
