The browser jailbreak works on 7.00 to 13.52

And with prev gen, external hds are perfectly fine, you don't need the 1TB console.

Community Reviews

These Geek Squad refurbished PS4 deals stand out for cheap entry into console gaming, especially the 1TB Slim and PS4 Pro models. The consoles can be jailbroken on older firmware, and the Pro gets extra interest for modding, smoother performance, and better headroom in some games. The bundle usually includes a controller and cables, and the system can double as a Blu-ray player. The main drawback is inconsistent fulfillment and condition, with wrong models, scratched units, and garage-sale-level wear showing up often. It is a better fit if you value low-cost hardware and can check the box before leaving.

Common Questions (5)

  • Yes, many of these PS4s can be modded, and firmware matters a lot. GoldHEN-based jailbreaks were reported working on firmware versions like 9.60, 12.00, 13.02, and 13.52, while newer firmware may not be jailbreakable yet.

  • The Slim is the cheaper pick and can be a better value if you just want a console, while the Pro offers smoother performance and more headroom for mods and patches. The Pro is also the better choice if you want extra compatibility for jailbreak tweaks or faster-paced games, but the Slim can be enough if you plan to use an external drive or just want to save money.

  • Units are listed in Good condition, but some arrived heavily used with scratches, missing labels, or beat-up controllers, while others looked fine. Included accessories commonly mentioned were a controller, HDMI cable, power cable, and micro-USB cable, though cable types and controller condition varied by unit.

  • Not always. Orders for a 1TB Slim or Pro have arrived as a different PS4 model or even a 500GB unit, while some buyers received the exact console they ordered. It's worth checking the box before leaving or opening a return/exchange if the model or storage is wrong.

  • Yes. Buyers reported getting exchanges handled in-store or through chat, with Best Buy sending a replacement and a return label or keeping the returned unit and reshipping another one. Shipping an exchange can cost extra if you switch from pickup to delivery.

I ordered a PS4 Pro and it should be here Friday. I will add that if you are still looking for a PS4 be sure to check your local pawnshop. I just purchased another Ps4 Pro from a pawn shop for $145.
It is on firmware 13.52. Jailbreak here I come.

I received my slim today and it's not in the greatest shape and the controller is a little beat up and missing the label on the back of it but all seems to be in working condition. The console is the latest revision CUH-2215B and the firmware is 13.02. Also came with a used power cord, hdmi cord as well as a new in box Best Buy essentials micro usb cable.

Well hot dang! Got my 1TB slim today and it turns out they sent me a 1TB Pro. It also came with a new HDMI cable, a new Best Buy Essentials micro USB cable, and a new Rocketfish braided power cord (that doesn't fit because the Pro takes a regular PC plug). The controller was covered in tiny droplets of some weird blue-purple gunk that eventually scrubbed off after about 30 minutes with Clorox wipes. Firmware 12.00, running Gold Hen now. Quite pleased!

Watch out. I purchased a best buy geek squad PS4 Slim 1TB version and they sent me a regular PS4 500GB version. Fuq best buy. They don't know what they're doing. Also the Good condition was closer to Fair condition. Heavily used like you'd find at a garage sale.

Same to me, just bring to bestbuy store and request an exchange, they will keep the one you returned and place an order for you to reship you another one for free.

Look like Best Buy never check what exactly they put in the box before ship, people just got random PS4, some got lucky, some unlucky, what a mess!

Yea, I called to exchange my wrong PS4 and it was a relatively hassle free process excluding the time I'll waste going to best buy to exchange it. Maybe the reason the "good" condition was so poor is because they sent the wrong one to me. I hope so because it felt like a heavily used garage sale find than one refurbished. That said the one I got was firmware 13.02 just for anyone curious.

Ordered a Pro and received a Regular or a Slim. Annoying as all hell, especially since there are people here saying they ordered a Regular or Slim and received a Pro. Now have to deal with a return.

Haven't bothered to test as I got less than what I paid for, and not more.

There isn't any "Pro" branding on the console. Sony made it hard to tell unless you know what you're looking for.

The two pictures attached to the SD post can help though. The first one is a Pro, the second one is a Slim.

Pro: 3 layer sandwich with silver PS logo on the top
Slim: 2 layer sandwich with black PS logo on the top
