EarlyAmazonPrime Day deals are coming thick and fast, and Nintendo Switch is no exception there with this superb HyperX Cloud Earbuds discount.

TheHyperX Cloud Earbudsare a nigh-essential Nintendo Switch accessory if you frequently play in portable mode. Right now, US shoppers can pick up a pair at Amazon forjust $19.99. That’s a massive 50% saving off of the buds' usual retail price ($39.97).

This is one of those earlyPrime Day gaming dealsthat’s not to be missed. The last time we saw the HyperX Cloud Earbuds drop this low in price was back in March of this year, so we’d highly recommend at least giving the deal a look to avoid waiting longer for a discount on one of thebest Nintendo Switch accessories. It is worth noting that third-party new and used sellers have sold the buds for less, but most of these don’t qualify for next-day Prime shipping and a safe delivery is not guaranteed.

So far, this half-off saving for the HyperX Cloud Earbuds is one of the strongestPrime Day Nintendo Switch dealswe’ve seen so far, especially impressive considering the sales event doesn’t officially begin untilJuly 11.
