We are now tracking a deal at Amazon that drops 8BitDo’s Retro R8 mouse with charging dock down to $49.99 shipped. This particular unit hit the scene last year in December carrying a $60 price tag, and today’s deal lands as its first deal since its debut. This fairly new model is now fetching $10 less than its usual going rate, landing it at the lowest price we have tracked for it to date. This officially licensed mouse comes with a charging dock and you can learn more about it in detail below.

You are looking at 8BitDo’s latest officially licensed Xbox Edition mouse that debuted alongside the brand’s Xbox Edition Retro TKL keyboard. The Retro R8, as you can see, comes with a translucent shell and it has two programmable buttons on each side. It’s an ambidextrous mouse that packs a PAW 3395 optical sensor with 26,000 DPI, and it comes fitted with Kailh Sword GM X micro switches. The Retro R8, as previously mentioned, is bundled with a charging dock, and it’s customizable via the brand’s Ultimate Software.

If you’re looking for a more affordable alternative, then Logitech’s G305 wireless gaming mouse is down at $28.50 right now. This one comes with the brand’s popular HERO sensor and it’s down to its lowest price of the year.
