If you missed your chance to save over $100 on a Steam Deck OLED, refurbished models of Valve\u2019s handheld are currently back in stock, but only while supplies last. The <a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/sale\/steamdeckrefurbished\/\">refurbished 1TB model<\/a> of the Steam Deck OLED is available for $519 ($130 less than a new model), while the <a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/sale\/steamdeckrefurbished\/\">refurbished 512GB<\/a> model is available for $439 ($100 less than a new one). This is an easy way to save on the sticker price of the Steam Deck OLED, but only if you move quickly. Stocks for refurbished models are limited, and there\u2019s really no telling when more will become available, as each refurbished model undergoes the same testing and inspection process as new units.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">The Steam Deck OLED represents a substantial upgrade over the original LCD model. In addition to a modest improvement to the processor, the OLED is also equipped with a larger battery and a slightly bigger OLED display that\u2019s not only more power-efficient but is also capable of a 90Hz refresh rate.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">While we\u2019ve never inspected a refurbished Steam Deck first-hand, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/sale\/steamdeckrefurbished\/\">Valve\u2019s FAQ<\/a>, there is no functional difference between a refurbished unit and a factory mint model. Thankfully, refurbished Steam Decks are entitled to the same warranty as new models. If there is ever an issue with your refurbished model that can\u2019t be resolved within a year of purchase, it will be replaced free of charge with another refurbished Steam Deck OLED. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/good-deals\/503835\/steam-deck-oled-refurbished-valve-sale\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Valve started selling refurbished models of its Steam Deck OLED handheld last month, but quickly went out of stock.
