9 Black Friday PC peripherals I recommend with up to 58% off the top gaming mouse, keyboard and PC controllers

The best PC game controller, in our opinion, is the Gamesir Kaleid, and it’s currently discounted on Walmart. The fact that this sub $50 pad delivers customizable hall effect sensors, hair triggers and rear paddles is mightily impressive when you consider the likes of the DualSense Edge are priced at more than triple that amount. It’s perhaps not the prettiest controller, yet the customization options it offers are seriously impressive.

Our favorite wireless PC gaming controller is heavily discounted at Amazon right now. Designed specifically with PC gaming in mind, this is the ideal controller regardless of whether you primarily game on Steam or the Epic Games Store. Its handsome Xbox-like design ensures it’s comfortable to hold, while its rubberized grips mean this quality controller is unlikely to fall out of your hands, no matter how sweaty your palms get.

The best mouse for work and play is the Cherry XTRFY M50 Wireless. Rolls right off the tongue, right? With a max DPI of 12,000 and a polling rate of 1,000Hz, this peripheral feels incredibly responsive, especially when it’s paired with one of the best gaming monitors. Its user-friendly companion software and low-key design also ensure the M50 is an ideal fit for slightly more casual PC gamers. Oh, and that 100-hour battery life? Hot. Damn.

For our money, the Cherry M68 is the best mid-range gaming mouse you can currently buy. Thanks to the combination of its excellent sensor and a borderline head-spinning max DPI of 26,000, you’ll feel like Neo stopping bullets in The Matrix with this ninja-like peripheral. The fact that the M68 also feels extremely comfortable in the hand and sports fabulously clicky Huano switches is a further palm-friendly bonus.

We described the Lemokey X1 as "quintessential gaming on a dime.” No wonder it’s our favourite budget board to game on. At $36, the X1 it’s a steal. At $22 on sale at Amazon ahead of Black Friday 2025? You’re talking about the heist of the century. With build quality that rivals far more expensive, premium keyboards and user-friendly software that lets you customize its backlight, the Lemokey X1 represents incredibly good value for money.

The best mini gaming keyboard you’ll find anytime soon. Although this awesome little board may lack some keys due to its 60% form factor, it more than makes up for it in other areas. Build quality is top-tier, while its sleek and compact design, coupled with an excellent 1,000Hz polling rate, means it feels fabulous to both game and type on. The Apex Pro Mini’s winning companion software also deserves to be celebrated.

This is an absolute steal. For the cost of a reasonable round of drinks in the U.K., you can land an extra comfy, ergonomic pad that sports eye-arousing colorways for a fraction of the PS5’s DualSense Controller. Though it’s wired only and lacks hall effect triggers, that extremely attractive price point, coupled with the addition of user-friendly software, makes the Rematch Core a superb budget PC controller.

Our pick for the best gaming mouse overall is a top-of-the-tree peripheral. Lightweight at just 2.11 ounces, yet boasting 5 buttons and an almost ludicrous max DPI of 32,000, gaming mice don’t get much more responsive. Add in user-friendly software, fantastic battery life and onboard dongle storage, and it’s obvious why we think this is the gaming mouse to beat in 2025.

The best overall gaming keyboard is an attractive enough prospect at full price, let alone when it’s discounted. Sporting phenomenal looks and lush, magnetic switches, the K2 HE is as enjoyable to type on as it is for pulling off palm-sweating headshots in Battlefield 6. Undercutting other 75% form boards without sacrificing quality, this is our current king keyboard.
