Another week, another Amazon sale - but this time around it’s us gamers being treated to some low prices. I generally don’t put too much into these random events, they often produce sub-par discounts on the same mid-level gadgets every time. However, a few key players caught my eye this time around and after digging through the whole site, I’ve found some actually impressive discounts that aren’t to be missed.
Most of Amazon’s gaming sale focuses on the PC gamer, with mice, headsets, streaming kit, and keyboards taking the brunt of the discounts. Among them you’ll find some personal highlights. My daily driver gaming keyboard theAsusROG Azoth, for example, is down to a fantastic$167 sale price (was $249.99). However, Nintendo Switch, PS5, and Xbox players will also find plenty of game and hardware discounts to take advantage of at the moment as well.
You’ll find my personal picks from this week’s sale just below, or head to the department you need just below.
