What changes the price of a PlayStation?
- Model. The PS5 Pro is worth the most, followed by the PS5 Slim and the original PS5. PS4 models are worth less.
- Disc drive. Consoles with a disc drive are usually worth more than Digital Editions.
- Storage. Larger storage can raise the price.
- Controller and cables. A working DualSense controller, power cable and HDMI cable are expected.
- Condition. Scratches, overheating, disc drive faults or controller drift lower the price. Our condition guide explains each grade.
How to check your model
The model number is on the label on the back or base of the console. You can also find it in Settings, System, Console Information.
