We're big fans of the best mechanical keyboards here at Tom's Guide — and with the Amazon Prime Day sale now coming into its second day, we're making sure that there are still loads of deals for you to choose from.

Why do we prefer mechanical to membrane? To put it quite simply, they’re more accurate, they feel more tactile and thus more pleasurable to type on, and with the right keyboard switches, they can even make you a faster typer. 

We’re seeing deals for a number of big U.S. retailers slashing prices on some of our favorite boards. Indeed, of the handful of discounts I’ve listed below, nearly every single one is on our best mechanical keyboards buying guide. 

Even though mechanical boards normally cost more than membranes, our current favorite mechanical peripheral is the Cooler Master MK770 on sale for $112 at Amazon, which is actually the cheapest keyboard out of my picks. And if you’re a gamer, you can’t go wrong with the delicious discount on the superb Corsair K70 Max, which is now $174 at Amazon. Now let’s get to my five favorite Prime Day mechanical keyboard deals.
