Today both Amazon and Adorama are hosting some great deals on the Xbox Series S console. At Amazon, you can pick it up bundled with Elden Ring for a $40 discount. At Adorama you can pick up the console by itself for $50 off. In other deal news, the Sony Days of Play PS5 DualShock deal for $59 is still live (and runs through June 8), the Switch Pro controller has dropped to $55, and you can purchase a 12-month Nintendo Switch Family membership and get a free 128GB memory card.
Xbox Series S with Elden Ring for $319.98
Amazon is offering a hefty discount when you buy the current-gen Xbox Series S console and the Elden Ring game together as a bundle. The Xbox Series S normally retails for $300 and the Elden Ring game normally retails for $60. The Elden Ring game comes in the form of a digital code. Elden Ring has been critically acclaimed just about everywhere and we also gave the game a 10/10 score here at IGN. Elden Ring is a very difficult game to master and it will test your patience and resolve, just like From Software’s Dark Souls and Demon’s Souls titles.
Xbox Series S for $249
If you want to buy the Xbox Series S console standalone without any kind of bundle, then Adorama currently has it for an unbeatable price of $249, which is $50 off MSRP. The Xbox Series S can play all the same games that the Xbox Series X can play. It’s not as powerful as the Xbox Series X, but it’s also $200 cheaper and runs games perfectly well.
Sony PS5 DualSense Controller for $59
As part of the Sony Days of Play Sale that starts now, Amazon has dropped the price of the PS5 DualSense controller to $59 from it’s original $70-$75 price point. At this moment, all colors are discounted and in stock. The DualSense controller is easily one of the most advanced controllers we’ve seen, with speakers and mic, haptics, sensors, gyroscope, accelerometer, the works. There’s no better controller for the PS5 console.
Nintendo Switch Pro Wireless Controller for $54.99
The Pro Controller normally sells for $69.99 and is rarely ever discounted below $60. Besides the Joy-Cons, this is the only licensed wireless Switch controller that supports motion controls, HD rumble, and built-in amiibo functionality. It is inarguably the best gamepad-style controller for the Nintendo Switch.

Apple AirPods 2 for $99.99
Pick up a pair of Apple AirPods 2 wireless earbuds for the lowest price we’ve ever seen. These AirPods include a charging case that you plug in via USB Type-C, not the “wireless” charger that supports Qi charging. You can get the AirPods 3 for $50 more, but it’s not really worth it unless you intend to use the wireless MagSafe feature on the charging case.
New Apple AirPods Pro Noise-Cancelling Earbuds
If you regret not picking the Airpods Pro up on Black Friday, here’s your chance to get it today at the same price. This is the newest generation model with the MagSafe compatible wireless charger. The AirPods Pro is considered one of the best noise-cancelling in-ear headphones you can get, especially for under $200. The noise cancellation is considered to be even better than the Bose Quietcomfort because of the natural noise isolating design of the in-ear earbuds. If isolation and sound quality are of utmost important to you, then it’s easily worth the upgrade over the AirPods 3.
2021 Hisense U8G 55″ 4K Android TV
Thie Hisense U8G is a fantastic TV at a budget price. It’s one of the highest end TVs that Hisense sells and its picture quality competes with the top-end LED LCD TV models from Samsung, LG, and Sony. The U8G is the 2021 model that replaces the 2020 U9G. It does a great job at displaying HDR content thanks to its high peak brightness and excellent black levels. It also makes a good gaming TV since it has a fast response time. Don’t be fooled into thinking this is a bad TV because of the brand; it’s probably the best 55″ TV you’ll find in this price range.
New 42″ LG Evo C2 4K OLED Gaming TV
For many of you who have been patiently waiting for the LG Evo C2 42″ 4K OLED TV, now you can rejoice. The majority of the 2022 Evo C2 lineup had been released earlier in the year, but for whatever reason LG had decided to hold off on its new 42″ size until now. This highly anticipated TV is finally orderable on Amazon and ships immediately. The 42″ replaces LG’s 48″ as its smallest 4K OLED TV on the market. It performs just as well as its larger sized siblings as a gaming TV, but where it really shines is as a gaming monitor for your PC.
65″ LG C1 4K OLED Smart Gaming TV for $1596.99
If money isn’t an object, OLED TVs are considered the best TVs you can buy right now. Compared to traditional LED LCD TVs, they offer better image quality, deeper blacks, better contrast ratio, wider color gamut, and super fast response times. Our LG C1 review shows a perfect matchup for 4K gaming on the PS5, Xbox Series X, or your RTX 30 series equipped gaming PC since it supports 4K @ 120Hz over HDMI 2.1. The C1 is no longer the newest model, but it’s hundreds of dollars cheaper than an equivalent sized C2 and image quality is similar between the two.
Samsung S95B 55″ and 65″ 4K Quantum Dot OLED (QD-OLED) TVs Now Available on Amazon
After so many years, Samsung has finally thrown its OLED card out on the table with the new 2022 Samsung S95B 4K QD-OLED TV. This is Samsung’s first ever OLED TV, and the technology is a bit different from the OLED panel we see from LG. QD-OLED technology was a big hit at this year’s CES and Samsung earned the “Best of Innovation 2022” award for it. Whereas traditional OLED TVs use white OLED panels, QD OLED TVs use blue OLED panels with quantum dot color filters. This supposedly allows QD OLED TVs to more efficiently produce higher peak brightness levels compared to traditional OLED TVs without losing the color accuracy and range and wide viewing angles that OLEDs are known for. In real world practice, Samsung’s S95B QD OLED TV should be brighter than even the new LG G2 OLED TV. You will be paying a pretty penny for this new technology, but you’ll also be getting the best looking TV out there right now. The Samsung S95B OLED TV also makes for an ideal current-gen gaming TV since it supports 4K @ 120Hz over HDMI 2.1 on all ports.
MSI GeForce RTX 3080 GPU for $849.99
These are easily the best prices we’ve seen for an RTX 3080 video card since launch. At this price point, the RTX 3080 is a better value than the 3080 Ti, which costs at least $250 more at reputable vendors. The performance gap between the 3080 and 3080 Ti is about 3%, hardly noticeable. The 3080 is significantly more powerful than the previous generation’s flagship RTX 2080 SUPER. This is the card you want to get if you plan to game at 4K.
Razer Anzu Smart Glasses
These Razer smart glasses retail for a ridiculous $199.99. Fortunately, they’re on sale today for a much more reasonable price of $59.99.

They also feature a built-in mic and bluetooth speaker for hands-free calling.
Arcade1Up The Simpsons Arcade Cabinet
Includes Riser and Light-Up Marquee

In addition to the core The Simpsons game, The Simpsons Bowling is also preloaded.
Klipsch Promedia 2.1ch Computer Speakers

It’s normally listed for $169.99, but today Walmart has it for only $89, a 48% savings. This THX-certified speaker set includes two satellite speakers with 3/4″ soft dome tweeter with 3” midrange drivers and a 6.5″ 200W powered subwoofer for some intense bass.
HP Victus RTX 3060 Ti Gaming PC for $889.99
This is far and away the lowest price we have ever seen for a prebuilt gaming PC equipped with an RTX 3060 Ti GPU. Once you hit the product page, you’ll have to select “RTX 3060” for $250 and a “500W Power Supply) for $50. You can buy the system as is, or you can choose to add a few more choice upgrades. You certainly have leeway with this super cheap price.
Alienware Aurora R10 RTX 2080 SUPER PC for $1299
Just because the RTX 30 series cards are out doesn’t mean one of the the fastest RTX 20 series GPUs has lost its way. The RTX 2080 SUPER might be a generation old, but it’s still a very competent video card. It compares roughly to the RTX 3060 Ti and supports both DLSS and ray tracing. At this Memorial Day Sale price of $1299.99, it will be difficult to find an RTX 30 series gaming PC that can compete in the same price range. The GPU is matched with a liquid cooled AMD Ryzen 5 5600X CPU, 16GB RAM, 512GB SSD, and a generous 1000W power supply.
Alienware Aurora R10 RTX 3080 PC for $1799.99
The RTX 3080 is way more powerful than the previous generation’s best video card, the RTX 2080 Ti, and is the best recommended video card for 4K gaming. The RTX 3080 Ti and RTX 3090 are the only cards that are (very slightly) more powerful, but they cost hundreds of dollars more. The RTX 3080 is paired with an AMD Ryzen 7 5900 CPU, which is still one of the best processors out there, whether it be for gaming or for workstation purposes. It’s been upgraded with liquid cooling as well. The rig is ready to go out of the box with 16GB of DD4-3200MHz RAM and a generously sized 1TB M.2 PCIe NVME SSD. Don’t worry, even the power supply is up to snuff with an ample 1000W rating.
Alienware x15 RTX 3070 Gaming Laptop for $1599.99
This might be the lowest price we’ve ever seen for an Alienware x15 with an RTX 3070 GPU. The Alienware x15 is a newer, thinner redesign of the m15. In fact, it’s the thinnest Alienware laptop ever. Because it hasn’t been around as long, it’s harder to find a good deal on it. This particular config comes well equipped with an 11th gen Intel Core i7-11800H CPU, RTX 3070 GPU with a TDP rating of 110W (with dynamic boost), 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD. There’s even a coupon code that drops the price by another $100.
