SteelSeries is offering up to 40 percent off some of its gaming headsets, mice, and mouse pads through Monday, May 23rd. There are some great deals to be had, including some that are new all-time lows.

The Arctis 7P Plus is our pick for the best wireless gaming headset for the PS1, but it also works with Windows PCs, the Nintendo Switch, and other devices. It's on the premium side and usually retails for more than Sony's own headset, but it also has great battery life, an easy-to-use audio dial, and ear cups. It's compatible with the PS4's 3D audio.

The black model of the Arctis 7P Plus is now available at a new low price of $139. When you add the headset to your cart, you get free shipping and a carrying bag. Read our guide to buying a headset.

The Arctis 7P Plus has the same design and comfort of previous SteelSeries headsets, but this newer model boasts improved battery life andusb-c charging, making it easy to use the same charging cable that your dualsense uses.

The Aerox 3 Wireless is discounted during the SteelSeries spring sale. The honeycomb design of the gaming mouse is filled with colorful lighting. When you add it to your cart, you'll get the model for just $64.99 in black or white, along with a free mousepad.

You can use the included 2.4 GHz wireless USB dongle to switch between two machines on the fly, and it's a strength that it can be used either viaBluetooth or with its included wireless mouse. It is advertised to have up to 200 hours of battery life, but it only lasts a couple of days with the lighting on. Thankfully, it charges via the internet.

The SteelSeries Aerox 3 Wireless is a wireless gaming mouse. It's just 68 grams and has a charging port. The design is similar to the Rival 3.

The most recent one in support of Ukraine is very similar to previous ones that itch.io has run. This one runs until June 13th, and if it is like those before, more games will be added to the mix as it continues to raise money beyond its initial goal.

Roll for Romance is raising money to support reproductive rights by offering a robust collection of DRM-free games and resources.

The Kiyo Pro is currently on sale at both Amazon and Best Buy for $99.99. The accessory retailed for $199.99 when it first came out, but now it's $100 cheaper. It has some decent specifications, including the ability to capture up to 60 frames per second and a wide 103-degree field of view, as long as you don't mind using Razer.

The Kiyo Pro is a bit of a mixed bag, but it does a nice job with tricky lighting and manages to produce smooth, detailed video. It's a bit pricey for what it offers and missing 4K resolution, but the current discount makes it a better value. Read the review.

During its developers conference on Wednesday, the company briefly showed off the upcoming Pixel 7 and the budget-friendly Pixel 6A. The 6A lacks a jack for headphones and uses the same camera system as its pricier brethren.

If you're looking for the very best from the company, and you want the best camera performance, Amazon is selling an unlocked 128 gigabyte Pixel 6 Pro for $856.57. You can use the unlocked phone on any carrier, as well as the triple-camera system, which includes a 50MP main sensor, a 12MP ultra-wide, and a 48MP 4x magnification lens. It has a larger display with a refresh rate of up to 120Hz. There is a lot to like in the top-tier Pixel, and they are features that stand above the upcoming budget model. Read our review.
