Toying with the idea of buying a Steam Deck? Well, you can now pick one up for less than ever, as Valve is now selling refurbished models. While unboxing brand new tech is nice, the fact you can get a renewed handheld for less than a Nintendo Switch is super impressive. I’d go as far to say that I’d have bought one if I didn’t own the portable already, as the discount is too good to pass up.
Even at full price, the Steam Deck is still one of the best handheld gaming PCs on the market, and its build quality means it's pretty hardy. It’s anything but a piece of disposable tech, and while Valve would rather you didn’t crack open the portable to tinker with it, repairability is one of its biggest strengths. So, the fact the company is now selling official refurbished devices makes tons of sense, and it’s a big win on the sustainability front. Not to mention it’ll free up your budget so that you can pick up the best Steam Deck dock and other handy accessories without breaking the bank.
