The Steam Deck OLED, the best version of Valve's gaming handheld with additional battery life, a slight increase to performance, and an eye-popping screen, can now be purchased refurbished for $110 less than it costs brand-new.
Valve has just begun selling certified refurbished Steam Deck OLED models starting at $439 in the US, UK, Canada, and EU. That buys you the 512GB model with a glossy screen, while the 1TB anti-glare model can be had for $519 - less than the $549 you'd pay to get even the 512GB model brand-new.
Valve says each refurbished unit undergoes an extensive examination involving over 100 tests, including a battery health check, and they will meet or even exceed the performance standards of brand-new units.
While lots of other Windows handhelds are on the way, the company's been pretty clear it won't release a new Steam Deck soon - not till newer chips allow a significant performance leap.
