Amazon Prime Day 2017 Gaming Deals

SanDisk/Amazon

Storage

Expandable storage makes using devices like Android phones or the Nintendo Switch much more manageable. You can snag a 256GB micro SD card from SanDisk for $105, a 200GB for $81 or a 128GB card for $36. Keep in mind only the former two come with an SD-card adapter, which is handy if you plan on using the card with a Macbook Air or digital single-lens reflex camera.

Samsung/Amazon

PC Gaming

Samsung and Amazon are offering up a 4K, 28-inch display for $280. Or if you’re willing to go for a 24-inch, you can have that for $347.

Corsair brings deal hunters their backlit, K70 mechanical keyboard for Prime Day 2017. $110 will get you RBG LED keys and macro programming options. Combine colorful backlighting and noisy individual keys and this keyboard isn’t just functional, it’s certifiably extra.

If you’re in the market for headphones, Sony’s XB950B1 Extra Bass wireless units are also on sale for $100 off, at $98. While you’re at it, you may want to procure these if you wear glasses while you game. The $20 lenses offer UV protection from all that time you stare at the screen.

Mophie/Amazon

Mobile

Games like Pokémon Go ruin battery life, but not when you come prepared. Mophie’s Juice Pack is nearly half off at $60, plus an extra 25% off at checkout in celebration of Prime Day 2017. If you plan on catching ‘em all, don’t leave home without it.

The Xbox One S bundle gives you Halo Wars 2 physical, Halo 5 digital, Forza 6 digital and Recore digital here. Or you can save $50 bucks and get the same games if you don’t mind a 500GB hard drive instead of a full terabyte.
