The PS5 Slim is at its lowest price ever – here’s how to get the deal

If you’ve got a new games console on your Christmas wishlist, we’ve spotted big discounts on both the PS5 Slim disc and digital consoles at a wide range of retailers. With Sony reportedly set to replace the 1TB digital games console with a new 825GB version for the same price, now may be the best time to get your hands on it.

You can currently save up to £100 on the PS5 Slim digital edition console at John Lewis, Argos and Smyths Toys, bringing it down to just £329.99. Meanwhile, the cheapest you’ll find the disc edition is for £415 at EE, with a £64 discount.

Though not quite as powerful as the PS5 Pro, we can understand why you may not want to cough up £700 for a games console that might be replaced by the PS6 in a few years’ time.

The PlayStation 5 Slim is just as good as the original full-fat PS5, if not better. It’s slimmer, easier to store away and comes with more internal storage than the previous model. It’s one of our favourite games consoles ever made, and this is the best deal we’ve seen on the machine. Plus, if you opt for the cheaper digital edition, you can even add on a detachable disc drive at a later date, just as you would with the PS5 Pro.

For everything you need to know about the console and how to snap it up for less, keep reading.
