Woot has a video game sale that is mostly sold out right now, but if you’re looking for a PlayStation 5 Slim Digital Edition, you can get a refurbished one for $309.99 (originally $449.99), the lowest price according to price tracking tools. Keep in mind that since it’s a refurbished console, it might come with signs of wear, but they were all serviced and given the thumbs-up to work properly. The consoles also come with Woot’s 90-day warranty program in case you have a problem with them.
Woot only ships to the 48 contiguous states in the U.S. If you have Amazon Prime, you get free shipping; otherwise, it’ll be $6 to ship.
This is the digital version, meaning there is no place to insert discs. All the games are played through the cloud, which is where the game industry seems to be heading anyway. There were other versions of the console for sale, but they sold out quickly. It’s just a matter of time before this one sells out as well, so act fast if you’re interested.
What do you think so far?
If you already have the older PS5 and are wondering about upgrading to the slim version, keep in mind that it offers more than just a sleeker design (about 30% slimmer, according to IGN’s review). The PS5 Slim also has 1TB of internal storage space, which results in an additional 181GB of usable space when compared to the original PS5. This addresses two of the biggest cons of the original PS5: the bulkiness and lack of storage space compared to the Xbox Series X.
The PS5 Slim can be oriented both horizontally and vertically, but if you choose the latter, you’ll need a vertical stand, which costs $18.99.
