Thanks to Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days sale going on right now, you can try out mechanical keyboards or pick up a new one at a huge discount.
I combed through Amazon's mechanical keyboard deals to hand-pick the best seven for gamers and typists alike. For example, Laptop Mag's best overall keyboard of the year, the Epomaker x Leobog Hi75, is on sale for just $80 right now! This keyboard is my daily driver (which is really saying something since I have almost two dozen to choose from). It has an incredible typing sound and feel, a high-quality full-aluminum case, and some fun color options to choose from.
You can also score some great discounts on gaming keyboards right now. For example, the HyperX Alloy Origins 60 is down to just $50, half off its normal price!
