Let’s get out the calculator: The PS5 (Digital Edition) costs around 400 euros – at least in theory, because it’s sold out everywhere and there just doesn’t seem to be an end in sight. According to the idealo price comparison, the prices are around 700 euros, but for our calculation we use the RRP. The DualSense controller currently costs at least 60 euros.

If these values ​​are subtracted from the total costs over a 24-month contract period, they remain 631.75 euros left for the tariff. Corresponding 26.32 euros per month for an Allnet and SMS flat rate with 40 GB LTE/5G data volume. The normal price for the “o2 Grow” tariff is 29.99 euros per month – so that’s a good deal, especially since the PS5 is currently not available at the RRP. From the 25th month, the tariff then only costs 29.99 euros per month.

Of course, the calculation above only works if you cancel at the end of the minimum contract period. It is up to you whether you should do this, although the tariff increases in data volume every year and thus gains in value, although the costs remain the same. If you want to cancel and forget to do so, the contract will not be extended by another year, but can be canceled on a monthly basis.
