Alternatively, Amazon is also selling a renewed version of the PlayStation 4 for £139.99. With a large 500GB HHD, this console also comes with a dualshock 4 wireless controller. Many shoppers have said that the consoles they received were of great quality and only had a few scratches.

Back to the PS5, more than 800 Amazon shoppers have bought the device in the last 30 days and the console has earned itself a 4.6 star rating from over 1,800 reviews.
One highly satisfied shopper said: "The PlayStation 5 Slim has been a fantastic addition to my gaming setup. Coming from the standard PS4, the difference in performance is noticeable right away. Games load incredibly fast, and the visuals are stunning.
"I've been playing games like Demon's Souls and Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, and the level of detail and smooth frame rates are impressive. The compact design of the Slim version is a big plus for me, as it fits much better in my entertainment centre compared to the larger original model."
Another shopper added: "The PlayStation 5 Slim is a fantastic upgrade from the original PS4. It's sleeker, lighter, and more compact, making it easier to fit into any entertainment setup. The performance remains top-notch with fast load times and stunning graphics.
"The modular design, including a removable disc drive, adds great flexibility. While it's still a bit pricey, it's a worthwhile investment for any gamer looking to enhance their gaming experience."
However, one reviewer cautioned that they may be better deals elsewhere, writing: "Great console - but you won't get the free 24-month premium voucher (worth £200+) from buying here so probably better to order from Sony or another retailer directly in the long run."
While another customer came across a problem: "Controller stopped working within a year, issue did not get resolved by seller. Without a controller, my ps5 is pointless. Controller sticks feel very loose after only a short time using them."
Despite this, another shopper praised: "Absolute joy. Fast, incredibly quiet, and beautifully designed. Games load instantly, and the visuals are stunningly smooth, bringing gaming immersion to a whole new level. If you're thinking about upgrading, do not hesitate; this console is phenomenal!"
Another five-star reviewer said: "You immediately notice the difference between this and the PS4, particularly in loading times. The visual difference comes more when paired with a 4K TV/Monitor.
"Also fan is quiet, only sometimes the disc drive can be loud when copying a game disc (which can be fixed, as far as I'm aware). Even so, if you are a gamer I'd get this. A clear improvement on its predecessor."

Alongside the selection of graphic snaps showcasing her injuries, the TV actress revealed all. "I fainted at the beach. And fell face first into a boulder," she explained.

I am sending you all of the healing energy in the world. Take it easy! We're all here for you," penned one. Another added: "Thank you so much for talking about this. Thinking of you."

Evangeline's hospital dash and health update comes after she announced she was retiring from acting. Last year, after 20 years on screen, Evangeline said: "I am so filled with joy and contentment today as I live out my vision. "Praise God, I feel so grateful for my blessings. Stepping away from what seems like the obvious choice (wealth and fame) can feel scary at times, but stepping into your dharma replaces the fear with fulfillment." She then added: "I might return to Hollywood one day, but, for now, this is where I belong. "A new season has arrived, and I AM I AM HAPPY." 5 Evangeline shot to fame on Lost Credit: Alamy

It wasn't long ago that, to buy a quality power bank with more than 20,000mAh of battery capacity, you'd be looking at over £100. But just look at what £100 gets you now. The 60,000mAh Anker Solix C200 DC Power Bank has just dropped to £109, its lowest ever price - just in time for the camping season. And it's the perfect gadget to take with you.

It connects to an app, so you can control and monitor it remotely | Anker It has three USB-C ports, two USB-A ports, and a connector for a solar panel (which is also a bargain at the moment).

That means you can charge your laptop, tablet, smartphone, and a pair of earbuds all at the same time. And you can do that for hours.

If you can catch the limited-time deal on Amazon, you'll get the power bank and a 60w solar panel for £199.99, which is a terrific deal. One of the best things about the Solix C200 is its LCD display. It shows you how much capacity it's got, how long it thinks you can run it for and it lets you monitor input and output rates. All of these features combined makes it one of the best options for off-grid 12v power, and it's small enough to take in a rucksack, so it's an ideal travel companion for any scenario. 🔥 Free Samsung tablet?
