A refurbished PS5 is a used console that has been fully tested and restored to perfect working order before it is sold again. Unlike buying second hand privately, every PS5 from The iOutlet is graded for condition, sold with a free 12-month warranty and ready to play out of the box. It is the safe way to buy a used PlayStation 5 for less than new.
Every console is graded so you know its condition before you buy. A+ Pristine looks essentially new, A Excellent has only the faintest marks, B Good has some signs of use, and C Average carries heavier marks. Whichever grade you choose, it has been fully tested and works exactly as it should.
The first choice is whether you want a disc drive. A Disc Edition plays physical games and Blu-ray discs, which also lets you buy and sell pre-owned games to bring the running cost down. A Digital Edition has no drive, so it usually costs less up front and you download everything instead.
The second choice is the size. The original PS5 and the newer Slim play exactly the same games and perform identically. The Slim is smaller and lighter, so it suits a tighter shelf or a wall bracket. Neither is faster than the other.
The PS5 Pro is the one genuine step up. It renders games at a higher resolution and holds frame rates more steadily in the titles that support it, and it ships with a larger 2TB drive. If you play on a 4K television and care about image quality, it earns the difference. If you play on a 1080p screen, a standard PS5 does the same job for less.
If you want the lowest price of all, a refurbished PS4 still plays a very large library and remains our best value PlayStation. Compare the full refurbished PlayStation range, or browse all refurbished games consoles.
Every console arrives fully tested and reset, with a matching controller and the cables needed to get playing. Consoles are supplied in secure protective packaging rather than original retail boxes, which is part of how the price stays lower.
All PlayStation accounts, saved games and downloads from the previous owner are removed before the console leaves us, so you set it up as your own from the first boot.
Every order includes a free 12-month warranty and free UK delivery, and you have 30 days to change your mind.
A second hand PS5 bought privately comes as it is, with no checks and no warranty. A refurbished PS5 from The iOutlet has been fully tested, graded for condition and sold in perfect working order with a 12-month warranty, so you get the savings of buying used without the risk.
For most people, yes. You play the same games on the same hardware for less, and because every console is tested and graded you avoid the main risk of buying privately, which is not knowing what you are getting until it arrives.
They play the same games and perform the same. The Slim is a smaller, lighter revision of the same console, so the choice comes down to the space you have and the price on the day.
It depends on your television. The Pro renders supported games at a higher resolution with steadier frame rates and includes a 2TB drive. On a 4K set that is a visible difference. On a 1080p screen a standard PS5 gives you the same games for less.
