As of July 29, there’s a sweet deal for gamers on the horizon. You can snag the PlayStation 5 Slim digital edition for just $399, a nice drop from its original price of $449.99. Both Amazon and Walmart are offering this discount. If you’re more of a disc drive aficionado, you can pick up the PS5 Slim with a disc drive for $449, a cool $50 off its usual price of $499.99.
PlayStation is rolling out its summer sale, which runs until August 5, or at least while supplies last. It’s a good time to act fast if you’re eyeing a discounted PlayStation 5 Slim.
During Amazon Prime Day, our readers showed a lot of interest in the PS5, even though it didn’t feature any price cuts. That’s why we’re giving you the heads up now—this is your chance to snag some savings and get the best possible deals. While you can check out the sale on PlayStation’s website and other retailers, Amazon and Walmart are doing what they do best: battling it out to offer the lowest price. They’ve both set their price tags 99 cents below the competition, making these deals quite enticing.
So, for those who prefer a digital-only setup, the PS5 Slim digital edition is available at Amazon and Walmart for just $399. If you’re keen on having a disc drive, then the price is $449 at the same stores.
If you’re considering the PS5 Slim, you might want to weigh your options. The disc drive version could offer more value, especially since Sony bumped up the digital model’s list price by $50 for the slim edition. However, with or without a disc drive, the PS5 Slim delivers much of the impressive performance of the original console, albeit in a slightly more compact design. According to a review by our sister site PCMag, it’s still packing a punch. Plus, it comes with 1TB of built-in storage—an improvement over the 825GB found in some initial PS5 models.
Don’t forget to keep an eye on Mashable Deals for more updates.
If you’re not fully convinced by the PS5 Slim, it might be worth waiting for the anticipated announcement of the PS5 Pro.
