These &#8220;refurbished&#8221; units will be offered at a discount of 20% from the price of brand-new devices and will come with a one-year warranty, just like the new ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Valve emphasized that each certified refurbished Steam Deck undergoes the same rigorous testing process as their retail counterparts. These devices are restored to factory settings, equipped with all necessary software updates, and meticulously examined through more than 100 tests in one of Valve&#8217;s facilities. All the refurbished units meet the performance standards of new retail products. While they might have minor cosmetic imperfections, players can expect a stable and high-quality gaming experience at a lower cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"669\" src=\"https:\/\/tasteshk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/5efa2aa29c4214eac0b1fa11dbfda148e3bd221e-1024x669.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-657\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tasteshk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/5efa2aa29c4214eac0b1fa11dbfda148e3bd221e-1024x669.png 1024w, https:\/\/tasteshk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/5efa2aa29c4214eac0b1fa11dbfda148e3bd221e-300x196.png 300w, https:\/\/tasteshk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/5efa2aa29c4214eac0b1fa11dbfda148e3bd221e-768x502.png 768w, https:\/\/tasteshk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/5efa2aa29c4214eac0b1fa11dbfda148e3bd221e.png 1102w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Valve also ensured that all certified refurbished Steam Decks come with the same one-year warranty as the brand-new ones, including the refurbished power cable and quick start guide. These refurbished models are priced at around 20% less compared to new ones. For instance, the 64 GB version will be available at $319 (compared to the new unit&#8217;s $399), the 256 GB version at $419 (new price: $529), and the 512 GB version at $519 (new price: $649). This move from Valve offers gamers an opportunity to enter the world of the Steam Deck at a more accessible price point, while still enjoying the reassurance of a comprehensive warranty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/sale\/steamdeckrefurbished\">https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/sale\/steamdeckrefurbished<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00a92023 Valve Corporation.
