If you're eyeing a PlayStation 5 but balking at the $700 price tag of the new PS5 Pro, Sony has a more budget-friendly option for you. The company is set to offer refurbished PS5 consoles through its new certified refurbished website.


On this site, you’ll find the original PS5 models being sold at significantly reduced prices. A refurbished PS5 with a disc drive will be available for $399.99, which is $100 less than the price of a new PS5 Slim with a disc drive. Additionally, a refurbished all-digital PS5 in the original design will cost $349.99, also $100 cheaper.


The refurbished store also offers DualSense controllers at lower prices. Standard white and black controllers will be priced at $59.99, while colors like purple, pink, and gray camo will be $64.99—both offering a $15 discount off the regular prices.


According to Sony, all refurbished products undergo a thorough recertification process to ensure they meet the same functional standards as new units, though they may have minor cosmetic flaws. Each refurbished item comes with a one-year limited warranty, providing reassurance alongside savings.
