Valve has confirmed that certified refurbished Steam Decks are now available for purchase at a significant discount. This news comes shortly after an August 7 leak revealed details about the refurbished devices.
All three models of the Steam Deck – 64 GB, 256 GB, and 512 GB – are being sold for a much lower price compared to their standard price tags. In fact, the certified refurbished 64 GB Steam Deck is priced at just $320, which is only slightly more expensive than the Nintendo Switch. This translates to a 20 percent discount off the new unit price of $400. Valve has assured customers that these refurbished devices have been thoroughly tested and will perform just as well as new units, regardless of any scuffs or scratches.
According to a Valve spokesperson, the stock for refurbished Steam Decks is currently limited, but it will be replenished once more used units become available. The spokesperson also mentioned that although the refurbished units may have minor cosmetic blemishes, they have undergone a complete factory reset and software update. In fact, Valve conducts over 100 tests on the used Steam Decks, evaluating controller inputs, the audio system, screen quality, and internal components such as the battery and system-on-a-chip (SoC).
In addition, these refurbished Steam Decks come with a one-year warranty, a refurbished power supply, and a carrying case – everything that a new Steam Deck owner would receive, but at a fraction of the price. For those interested in handheld PC gaming but deterred by the price tag ranging from $400 to $650, this discounted offer is quite appealing.
The pricing for the certified refurbished Steam Decks is as follows: the 64 GB model is priced at $320 (originally $400), the 256 GB model is priced at $420 (originally $520), and the 512 GB model is priced at $520 (originally $650). These same prices can be found at GameStop, although it is noted that currently, these units are only available to GameStop Pro members.
If you’re considering purchasing a Steam Deck at a lower cost, you can check the availability on GameStop’s website or through the official Valve website. With a refurbished Steam Deck, you’ll be able to enjoy handheld PC gaming without breaking the bank.
