Other vendors like Walmart and Best Buy are also hosting their own sales alongside Prime Day. If the deals are better than what we’re seeing on Amazon, we’ll add them here. Everyone wants a piece of the Prime Day pie! We’ve already got a couple of good deals as well, such as the $100 Dell voucher included with a PS5, or the PS5 Pulse 3D Headset with a $50 Dell voucher.

What is Prime Big Deal Days/ Prime Day 2?

If you’ve been struggling to Google the latest sale, then don’t worry, you’re in the same boat as the rest of us. Amazon seems to be set on not calling the current event Prime Day 2 (despite it feeling like it is). Instead, the event is called Prime Big Deal Days (or you’ll even find some outlets referring to it as October Prime Day). For simplicity, we’re suggesting just checking our relevant articles listed below, and staying plugged in to our deals coverage on Twitter/X or Deals Discord.

Should I Buy a PS5 During Black Friday or Prime Day 2?

If you are in need of a PS5, there’s no real reason to delay your purchase and you can take advantage of any available sale. If you’re desperate to pick up a console before the likes of Spider-Man 2, go ahead and buy one as they’re now regularly available.

However, it’s worth noting that during sales like Black Friday or Prime Day 2, there may be new unique bundles and promotions for the PS5 that are not offered at any other time of the year.

Sony has already reduced the console’s price by $50 in recent sales, and there are rumors of a slim model priced at around $400, compared to the current disc model at $499. This suggests there will be ample opportunities to score a PS5 at more affordable prices if you’re willing to wait a bit longer for Black Friday 2023 and beyond.
