Best Prime Day Xbox headset deals

Prime Day is bringing discounts across various Xbox One headsets, all with guaranteed compatibility extending to Xbox Series X and Series S. The available savings vary between manufacturers, with the added choice of wired versus wireless, or specific features. But whether a budget-conscious buyer or an enthusiast demanding the best, many top names have headsets suited to you. We'll be rounding up the best Prime Day gaming headset deals and those prices you shouldn't ignore.

Here are some headsets that are likely to get price drops worth keeping an eye on, but we'll be adding more throughout the week.

HyperX is one to watch for budget-friendly headsets, and Prime Day savings on its HyperX CloudX Stinger Core nails all the essentials for less. Its 40mm directional drivers provide quality stereo audio in line with the price, with an adjustable steel slider and foam ear cups for added comfort. It also packs in-line volume and microphone control, with an easy 3.5mm jack that connects to all new Xbox controllers.

With Prime Day bringing discounts to some of the best Xbox headsets, it's essential to choose the product with the features suited to you. Quick research never hurts before checkout, and it's best to consider what you need from a headset and how it fits into your gaming setup.

The crucial decision comes from wired versus wireless, with each bearing unique benefits and disadvantages. Wireless provides added versatility, and while the technology is now better than ever, you'll still need to recharge your headset regularly. Wired introduces a physical tether to consider, but the promise of simple, high-quality audio and a lower price tempts many.

The sound quality, cost, and other attributes should all be considered — and with Prime Day, a good deal never hurts, too. Microsoft has also committed to supporting all Xbox One headsets on Xbox Series X and Series S, making it safe to invest despite the cross-generation transition. You can check out with confidence, ensuring a purchase lasting for years to come.

Best Prime Day Xbox video game deals

Some Xbox games see hefty price reductions through the Prime Day window, ideal for those titles you may have missed from past months. Those savings will best serve those who favor physical, disc-based games, although select digital download codes may also receive cuts. While we continue to round up the best Prime Day video game deals, many of our Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S highlights feature below.

Cyberpunk 2077 (opens in new tab)

Cyberpunk 2077 (opens in new tab)

While Cyberpunk 2077 courted controversy at launch, the game has been improved immeasurably since 2020, and represents a truly great sci-fi RPG well worth your time. Set in a dystopian future, Cyberpunk 2077 features some tremendous writing and gameplay, especially on current-generation consoles. 

Resident Evil Village (opens in new tab)

Rainbow Six Siege carved its spot in the multiplayer shooter space, with tense tactical combat, supported by its rich lineup of Operators and gadgets. The game's success had continued over half a decade later, drawing millions of players, with quarter seasonal updates packed with free content.

Assassin's Creed Valhalla (opens in new tab)

Assassin's Creed Valhalla (opens in new tab)

Ubisoft's world of assassination makes its return with a Viking journey touching Norway and Britain's Dark Ages. Brutal combat and large-scale conflict take the stage, and you may be able to grab a sizeable saving for Prime Day. 

New video game deals will continue to arise and disappear throughout Prime Day, with some of the best Xbox games even expected to see a discount. With physical games often cheaper than their digital counterparts, further savings can be hard to overlook.

Some existing Xbox One games are among the list of Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S Optimized games, with many already pledging free upgrades. However, Xbox One games also remain playable into the new generation, alongside Xbox 360 and original Xbox, via backward compatibility.

Best Prime Day Xbox console and devices deals

A range of supply chain issues have made it difficult to find an Xbox in brand-new condition anywhere. For the past two years, we didn't see any major discounts on Xbox consoles for Prime Day, and 2022 will most likely be the same. However, we do know of a few deals you can grab already on refurbished consoles, and we'll be sure to update this roundup with more Xbox deals as they appear. Despite main console SKUs not getting deals, we may see bundled options, however.

Given the rise of Xbox Cloud Gaming, though, there may be some good deals on tablets and other devices that can augment your Xbox gaming, allowing you to play without a console at all. We'll stick some tablet deals in this segment too.

Xbox Series S (opens in new tab)

Xbox Series S (opens in new tab)

While it's unlikely that we'll see an Xbox Series S price cut for Amazon Prime Day given that it's relatively new and stocks are selling through quite regularly, we may see some interesting bundle deals emerge that'll make it worth keeping an eye on. 

Xbox Series X (opens in new tab)

Xbox Series X (opens in new tab)

Similarly to the Xbox Series S, the Xbox Series X is a hot item and is highly unlikely to get any sort of price cut this early into its lifecycle. We may however see stock injections, or even special bundles throughout the week, making it worth keeping an eye on. 

Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 (8.7 inch) (opens in new tab)

Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 (8.7 inch) (opens in new tab)

Wait, what? Why is an Android tablet an Xbox device? Well, thanks to Xbox Cloud Gaming, if you combine this Galaxy Tablet with an Xbox controller or a USB-C gamepad clamp like the Razer Kishi V2, you practically have your very own portable Xbox. This is the cheapest good-quality small tablet with USB-C, making it ideal for Xbox Cloud Gaming. 

While Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S are now available for purchase, stock disappears from most retailers within minutes or a few hours at most. With the current generation still difficult to find even at regular price, don't expect to see Prime Day Xbox Series X|S deals for either console. However, restocks could take place over the two-day period.
