Valve is now selling refurbished Steam Decks at a lower price. These revamped devices have been thoroughly inspected by Valve, ensuring gamers still enjoy high-quality play, despite potential cosmetic defects.

Each refurbished Steam Deck undergoes more than 100 tests, scrutinizing all hardware including the I/O ports, audio system, screen, and battery. After testing, the devices are reset to factory settings and updated with the latest software.

Customers who purchase a Valve certified refurbished Steam Deck can expect a one-year warranty, a power cord, a protective case, and a quick-start guide included with their purchase. The refurbished decks are cheaper by €80, €110, and €140 compared to brand-new 64GB, 256GB, and 512GB models respectively. Buyers can anticipate a delivery time of approximately one to two weeks.

In related news, it has been announced that the PC version of Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is Steam Deck verified.
