The coolest hardware and accessories on sale during Amazon’s gaming week

Amazon’s Gaming Week is here and has brought some great deals on gaming hardware and accessories. Whether you’re in the market for a new gaming headset or keyboard, or just need some extra storage for your Nintendo Switch or Steam Deck, there’s something worth checking out during the event, which runs until May 28.

We’ve gathered some exceptional deals on some of our favorite gaming gear below, but you can also visit Amazon’s landing page to see the full range of goods being offered during this sale.

gaming mice

There are certainly more powerful gaming mice on sale, like the Logitech G Pro X SuperLite, and the Razer Viper 8K, but given that the Razer Deathadder V2X is matching its lowest price ever, we’re going to give it a look. Will give advice.

DeathAdder V2 X offers an outstanding collection of features for only $39.99 (usually $59.99). The V2 X has seven programmable inputs and a 14K DPI optical sensor. The V2 X can connect to a wide variety of devices using its 2.4 Ghz dongle, or Bluetooth connectivity, and can be powered by a single AA or AAA battery, depending on your weight preferences.

The pastel-tinted Logitech G305 Lightspeed Wireless Mouse is also matching its lowest price ever. Normally $49.99, Amazon has discounted the G305 down to just $39.99, but if you’re tempted by the all-white model, you can save an extra $5.

The G305 is a simple peripheral with solid performance, with a total of six programmable inputs and a 12K DPI optical sensor. The G305 is powered by a single AA battery that can keep it running for up to 250 hours, and while it’s capable of connecting to a variety of devices using its 2.4 Ghz wireless dongle, it lacks Bluetooth connectivity.

microphone

For all the aspiring streamers and content creators out there, Amazon has discounted a pair of excellent microphones to check out. The RGB-capable HyperX Quadcast S is on sale for $129.99 (normally $159.99), while the Blue Yeti Premium can be found for $84.99 (normally $129.99). Although the aesthetics of the two mics are quite different, they are both excellent condenser mics equipped with adjustable pickup patterns, and share the same mounting options for boom arms.

headset and earbuds

The HyperX Cloud II Wireless has remained a reliable and affordable headset option for years, despite the introduction of more feature-heavy models like the Steelseries Arctis Nova Pro Wireless, and Turtle Beach Stealth Pro. While the Cloud II Wireless is almost always on sale for $119.99, its collection of features is hard to beat at this price.

The Cloud II Wireless combines a comfortable and sturdy build with 7.1 spatial audio support, a detachable boom mic, and can last up to 30 hours on a single charge. The included 2.4GHz wireless dongle is compatible with PC and PlayStation consoles, but can also be used with the Nintendo Switch when docked. Unless you explicitly need a headset for gaming on the Xbox, the Cloud II Wireless is an excellent all-weather option.

If you’re looking for a headset that shares similar features at a similar price point, and you’re not afraid to make a statement, the Logitech G435 Lightspeed Headset is also available for $29.99 (normally $79.99). The G435’s overall build is more plastic-y than the Cloud II Wireless, and it lacks a boom mic, but it’s still compatible with all the same platforms and is also available in some stunning pastel colors.

While gaming headsets get all the attention, if you wear glasses, you might be better off with a solid pair of earbuds instead. Normally the Logitech G Fits earbuds are $229.99 on Amazon, but you can currently take home a pair for $159.99, their lowest price ever. The G Fits earbuds use built-in LEDs to specifically mold their shape to fit your ears, giving them a secure fit, and providing a level of comfort you won’t find anywhere else. The G Fit’s Bluetooth connectivity allows it to work with PCs, Macs, PlayStation consoles, Nintendo Switch, and mobile devices.

gaming keyboard

While there are plenty of gaming keyboards on sale right now, like the Razer Huntsman V2, and the HyperX Alloy Origin 65, if we had to choose one, we’d point you to the Corsair K70 RGB TKL. Normally $159.99, you can pick one up on Amazon for just $119.99. The K70 is equipped with per-key RGB lighting, dedicated media controls, and PBT keycaps. Perhaps its best features are its 8K Hz polling rate, and Corsair OPX optical switches that offer unparalleled levels of responsiveness and performance.

storage

The excellent Samsung 990 Pro is often our first recommendation for those looking for the best SSD for their PlayStation 5. Normally available for $239.99, the 2TB configuration of the speedy M.2 SSD is currently available on Amazon for $169.99, its lowest price ever.

Before you start deleting games from your Nintendo Switch or Steam deck, you might want to check out this deal on an Amazon Basics microSD card. Normally the 1TB version would run you around $137, but you can currently pick one up for $85. There are better-performing microSD cards out there, but you’ll have a hard time finding one that matches the Amazon Basics model for storage per dollar spent.
