Black Friday week is finally here and that means you're likely to see gaming keyboard and mouse deals increase in number. After all, November now just seems to be a permanent sales month for all tech retailers and Black Friday is almost two weeks long this year, if you include Cyber Monday and the sales following it.

Of course, you don't have to buy anything in the sales bonanza but a good set of peripherals can make the difference between a fantastic PC experience and a miserable one. These are the devices that bridge the gap between you and your machine, and treating yourself to a new keyboard or mouse can transform your everyday experience.

Mechanical keyboards will always be a good recommendation, as they can make your day-to-day typing experience transform from the mundane to the sublime and tend to be immensely reliable to boot. Fast and accurate gaming mice can make the difference between a high score and a rage quit, so look out for our recommendations on all the best-performing models.

Extra functionality is a plus for many gamers, so we'll also be on the lookout for extra buttons, toggles and switches so you can customise your inputs to your heart's content. From the simple purity of three buttons and a scroll wheel all the way through to more switches than you can shake a stick at, we'll be finding the best deals on them all.

👉We're curating all the best Black Friday PC gaming deals right now👈

We test and play with the latest and greatest mice and keyboards all year long, so we know what to look for when we see something fantastic at a great price.

Black Friday gaming keyboard deals

Five things I always tell people before they buy a new gaming keyboard

1. Good mechanical keyboards are cheaper than you think

2. You don't need Bluetooth, but 2.4 GHz wireless is great

3. Go for a Hall effect keyboard for competitive FPS gaming

4. Don't give up keys you use just to have a small keyboard

5. Don't underestimate typing sound and feel

Mountain Everest 60 | Mechanical | 60% | RGB | $69.99 $39.99 at Amazon (save $30 for Amazon Prime members)
The mountain Everest 60 is a perfect example of not having to spend a lot to get a cracking keyboard. Not only does it have hot-swappable switches and RGB, it's also wonderful to type on thanks to a plethora of enthusiast design choices such as great foam dampening, pre-lubed switches, and PBT keycaps. Oh, and you can snap on modular magnetic upgrades down the line, too, such as a numpad.

Redragon K552 | Tenkeyless | Mechanical Outemu Red Switches | User-defined RGB lighting | $43.99 at Best Buy
Good mechanical keyboards don't traditionally come cheap, but this Redragon K552 is here to buck the trend. This model features good quality Outemu red switches, customisable 87 key RGB lighting and a durable metal and ABS construction. There's also anti-ghosting, splash resistance and a gold-plated USB connector, making this little marvel a hell of a lot of keyboard for not a lot of money.

Price check: Redragon $44.99

Razer Huntsman Mini | Tenkeyless | Razer optomechanical switch (linear) | Chroma RGB lighting | $119.99 $69.99 at Amazon (save $50)
A teeny-tiny keyboard, but with some seriously impressive credentials. You can customise the lighting to your heart's content with Razer's Chroma RGB lighting, but the headline feature here is the inclusion of optical-mechanical switches, with key presses registered at the speed of light. It's also got oil-resistant PBT keypads and Razer Hypershift for all your favourite macros. A lot of cool features in a small-yet-premium feeling package, now at a great price.

Price check: Best Buy $69.99

Price watch:➖
Logitech G PRO Tenkeyless | Mechanical | LIGHTSYNC RGB backlit keys | $129.99 $72.55 at Amazon (save $57.44)
This Logitech G PRO comes with a lot of refined and clever features, giving you all the functionality with less of the fuss. It comes with a choice of key switches, a detachable Micro USB cable for easy portability, 3-step angle adjustment and a lot of customisation options in the G Hub software. Those backlit keys are on the subtle side of RGB lighting, and the Logitech comes off as a class act for less at this price.

Price check: Best Buy $79.99

Logitech G513 Carbon | Full Size | Blue or Brown Mechanical Switches | Per-key RGB lighting | $149.99 $129.99 at Logitech (save $20)
For those of you that like your keyboards large, comfy and with a choice of switches, how about this slightly sinister-looking G513? Something of the Darth Vader about it this one, but with a choice between brown and blue switches, a detachable memory-foam palmrest and a durable aluminium alloy construction this keyboard is certainly here to make an impact. It's also got a USB pass-through port, meaning you could plug your mouse or even your phone into it for data transmission or charging.

Asus ROG Strix Scope II 96 | Wireless | Hot-swappable mechanical switches | $179.99 $149.99 at Amazon (save $30)
Well, here it is. The tippity-top of gaming keebs, and our top pick for the best gaming keyboard overall right now—just substantially lower in price. Here you get excellent switch feel, impeccable gaming performance, sound dampening that actually works and a build quality that stands head and shoulders above most of the competition. A truly desirable object, for less.

Price check: Newegg $179.99

Asus ROG Azoth | 75% | Mechanical lubed switches | Hot-swappable | $249.99 $189.99 at Amazon (save $60)
Our top gaming keyboard is a larger, cheaper version of this board. I know, it's a little odd that this diddy board is actually the more expensive of the two, but that's because it's intended to be the most premium of the lot with a compact customisable OLED screen and all the trimmings. That includes sound dampening (which really does make for a satisfying clack) and lubed switches. It's a dream to type and game on, and at this price worth considering (though it's still pretty expensive, ngl).

Price check: Best Buy $199

Black Friday gaming mouse deals

Five things I always tell people before they buy their first gaming mouse

1. Wired or wireless isn't as big a deal as you think

2. Don't fall for the esports hype

3. Shape makes the difference

4. Cheap can absolutely be cheerful

5. Weight is important, but it depends how you game

Price watch:➖
Logitech G203 | Wired | 8,000 DPI | Right-handed | $39.99 $18.99 at Amazon (Save $21)
This mouse has been sitting in our best gaming mouse guide as a brilliant budget wired option for some time now, and it's still yet to be bested. Perfect as a starter or low-budget option with a list of useful features like 6 programmable buttons, Lightsync RGB effects and a ton of customisation via Logitech's G Hub software, this mouse proves that you don't need to go fancy to get a great gaming peripheral.

Price check: Best Buy $19.99

Logitech G305 LIGHTSPEED | Wireless | 12,000 DPI | Right-handed | $49.99 $29.99 at Amazon (Save $20)
The Logitech G305 Lightspeed is our favourite wireless budget mouse—it's nothing fancy, but it's lightweight, has great battery life, and uses a killer sensor. The only thing to note is that this deal isn't necessarily that out of left field—the G305 hasn't been at full price for a while, but it's still worth snagging if you need a nice budget option with no frills in time for Christmas.

Price check: Best Buy $29.99

Logitech G502 HERO| Wired | 25,600 DPI | Right-handed | $79.99 $34.99 at Amazon (Save $45)
This is a substantial discount on a tried and tested Logitech gaming mouse, with an astonishing amount of customisation potential. The G502 HERO uses the Hero 25K sensor for supreme accuracy, 11 customisable buttons with onboard memory, and even comes with five removable weights to adjust the feel for even the pickiest of competitive gamers. The two main buttons use mechanical switch tensioning to make every click feel satisfying, and the programmable RGB lighting finishes off this comprehensive package.

SteelSeries Rival 3 | Wireless | 18,000 DPI | Right-handed | $49.99 $39 at Amazon (Save $10.99)
Sometimes simplicity is what you're looking for in a peripheral, and if all you want in your next purchase is something solid and reliable with a wireless connection and a standard load out of 5 buttons, this mouse is for you. It's got an accurate TrueMove optical sensor, dual wireless connections and a 400-hour plus battery life, all wrapped up in a smooth and sleek chassis. No frills at a good price. What's not to like?

Razer Basilisk V3 | Wired | 26,000 DPI | Right-handed | $69.99 $39.98 at Amazon (Save $29.99)
We're big fans of the Razer Basilisk series of mice, and when we reviewed the latest V3 model we found it refined an already brilliant recipe into an even better one. With 11 programmable buttons, an improved thumb rest, a hyperscroll tilt wheel and some very cool underglow lighting the Razer Basilisk is sure to make an impression both in performance and aesthetics. A $20 discount here means it should absolutely make your shortlist for a fantastic wired gaming mouse.

Logitech G Pro gaming mouse | 25K sensor | Wireless | 80 g | $129.99 $66.49 at Amazon (save $63.50)
With Logitech's first-generation Hero sensor, this mouse is plenty snappy with a max DPI of 25,000. It also comes with a wireless receiver to ensure a report rate of just 1 ms. You will find more impressive mice, like the G Pro 2 Lightspeed, with better specs, but this maximises value to quality almost perfectly, at nearly half the cost of its successor.

Price check: Best Buy $69.99

Price watch:➖
Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro | 30K sensor | Wireless | 90 hour battery | $99.95 $79.95 at Newegg (save $20)
The DeathAdder V3 Pro was our previous pick for the absolute best gaming mouse, and the only reason it dropped off the list is because the V3 HyperSpeed version was better value. At this price, however, the V3 Pro is cheaper than the HyperSpeed and is definitely where it's at. You're getting the best Razer has to offer in its beloved DeathAdder form factor, and that's a heck of a lot for this price.

Price check: Amazon $119.99

Price watch:➖
Logitech G502 Lightspeed | Wireless | 25,600 DPI | Right-handed | $149.99 $79.99 at Best Buy (save $70)
When we reviewed the G502 Lightspeed we found it to be a brilliant mouse, but a little bit on the pricey side. However, with a discount this big we're more than happy to sing the praises of this excellent device. 11 customisable buttons, a fantastically accurate sensor, great looks and comfort, tuneable weights and PowerPlay wireless charging support with a 60-hour plus battery life. Phew. That's a lot of great features, and a mighty gaming mouse this makes indeed. One to look out for, especially at this sort of money.

Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 | 44K sensor | Wireless | 60 g | $159 $123.48 at Amazon (save $35.52)
The Superlight 2 has only recently been updated to a higher 44K DPI and 888 IPS, setting it even further apart from its predecessor. While the original Superlight is better value when the Superlight 2 is full price, with this discount in play it's difficult to pick between the two. With the second version, you're getting a better sensor, higher polling, extra battery life, and type-C charging.

Price check: Best Buy $139.99

What should I look out for in a Black Friday gaming keyboard or mouse?

For starters, most of the top gaming keyboards use mechanical switches, and so too do the top gaming mice, for that matter. These differ from the usual membrane construction you'll find on cheaper keyboards, and that means greater responsiveness, reliability, and generally a nicer feel. Beyond that, gaming keyboards offer plenty of nice-to-have features, such as RGB lighting, media control keys, macro keys, USB passthrough, wireless connectivity, and much more.

When it comes to gaming mice, you're looking more at the sensor that tracks your movements on your mouse pad. A good sensor will offer zero acceleration, track you accurately, and be able to withstand you throwing the mice hither and thither. Combined with a comfortable shape, you're looking at a winner.

Throw in a cheaper price on top of all of those great features, and you have a keyboard or rodent set to last many years.

When is Black Friday 2024?

Black Friday 2024 is on November 29 this year, though discounts started around the start of November as retailers drive down the prices to boost early sales.

The main event, however, will be around that Thanksgiving Thursday and into Black Friday itself, with deals lasting throughout the weekend, and then into Cyber Monday and further on into Cyber Week. Essentially, it's not just one day, there will be shops fighting for your attention all around Black Friday itself.
