Thank you for being the *only* reviewer I could find to actually demonstrate setting up the feet for horizontal orientation.

perfect video. helpful and to the point. thanks man!

[@alexanderdeldiablo6508]

Have you experienced any troubles with the Ps5 slim? Read a ton of people getting not only the controller update but getting errors while gaming, crashes, green screen, etc and now I'm worried.

[@user-xo8yc5jd4w]

Back then, the big reason I sold my PS4 phat for a slim was the big power consumption difference. If I'm not mistaken, the Ps5 Slim and Phat only have a 5W difference.

[@Youtubax]

Both the latest CF1200 fat PS5 and the new Slim version have the same chip and VRam so power consumption should be the same. The 2020 and 2021 models though have bigger chips requiring more power drain.

[@user-xo8yc5jd4w]

I've watch a video test with a wattage meter of the 2 consoles at the same time. On idle the slim sits on 49.6W while the Phat(CFI-1200) is 53.5w. In gaming (Astro Playroom) Slim's max was 214W then the Phat was 220W. He did say the subtle difference will have a margin of error, so yeah, it's still identical.@@Youtubax

[@IgorLeont]

​@@user-xo8yc5jd4w even if you compare two slim or two fat PS5s, there's going to be a few watts difference because no two chips are made equal, and there's a thing called the Silicon Lottery.

How is yours doing fan wise. I have gotten two ps5 slim. I returned the first one for a replacement and just feel the fan is loud. The first one. Not sure if the fan was damaged but it sounded annoyingly loud. My second one also sounds somewhat loud, a lot less than the first but still loud

[@FelipeAPina]

You can put an led light in the middle line would look kool

[@markjmaxwell9819]

I hope they do some custom covers with vents built in similar to the larger version. The feet for the horizontal position are not an issue with someone finally pointing out the holes they sit in which is a nice touch. So only two complaints no vents around the edges like the large version and the vertical stand should have come free in the box or be at least half the price it currently is. 😎

[@PhillipLemmon]

The original PS5 covers have no vents... You are thinking about the ones from Dbrand and it only had one where the fan is on the system. Hope this helps.

I’m thinking about to get my first PS and I really think I’m going to get a slim digital version, I’m constantly moving and I have no place to storage the disc cover; 3 years ago I got a switch and a bunch of game with the cover, I unfortunately throw away all the covers bc they took a lot of space, now I only have the game card, so for the ps5 I’ll get only digital games, and I can always buy a disk drive later if I decide where to live permanently. Thanks for the video ✌🏼

Wonder what version your ps5 slim was before you did a system update

Funny when you buy a disc version of the console the game disc is no longer included it's only a game code. I mean seriously what's the point.

Is it still working ok ? No overheating issues?

Compare new slim to older model in noise and temps.

[@theyuki-fay-multiverse9086]

That disc drive should be pre installed when u buy the disc version. It makes only sence when your old one is Broken and u buy a new one to install. Or when u turn your digital into a disc one.
