The clock is ticking if you want to make the most of Prime Day PS5 deals on either side of the Atlantic. We’re keeping you up to date with all the biggest Prime Day gaming deals as they happen, but we decided with most video game purchases being so expensive, it’s time we gave a shout-out to smaller deals that come in under $50 / £50.
In terms of Prime Day PS5 deals, there are plenty of savings to be had if you’re looking for the console itself, a bundle with some games, or accessories. I wish I could write about a deal that gets you Sony’s flagship for under $50, but alas, Jim Ryan and Jeff Bezos aren’t that charitable.
Nonetheless, here are some excellent last-minute Prime Day deals to upgrade your PS5 loadout that don’t break the bank. If you have a spare $50 to spend on yourself this Prime Day, these essentials are always a good bet.
Last minute Prime Day PS5 deals under $50
UK: Samsung 980 Pro + Heatsink | £101.49 £65.83 at Amazon
Buy it if:
- You find yourself running out of storage space on your PS5
- You want quicker load times
- You can’t afford SSDs at their usual prices.
If you do go for that SSD, that deal is for the model without a heatsink, and you’ll definitely need to pair it with a heatsink. Luckily enough, we have one of those on offer under $50 too.

Seriously – NVMe SSDs need heatsinks. Please, please make sure you get one. As you can see above, they really aren’t expensive, and they’ll ensure your drive lasts longer and operates to the best standards.
