In 2024, Amazon had three consoles up to $126 off: a slim disc version, a slim digital-only model and a NBA 2K25 bundle. The discounts on the two slim models saved shoppers $76. While the PlayStation 5 console (slim) disc model was $424, instead of $500, the PlayStation 5 Digital Edition (slim) was $374, instead of $450.

For a few years now, Amazon drops all its Black Friday deals starting the Friday before Thanksgiving weekend: This approach helps the retail giant avoid the chaos of a single-day sales spike and gives customers time to browse at their own pace.
