[@elChirrinChirriondelDiablo]

Yeah, to be honest never liked the old horizontal stand either, just tried it twice, when I was firstly setting the ps5 and I wanted to see how it works but I was already committed on using it vertically and when there was that whole buzz about the liquid metal, used it horizontally for a week and gone with “fuck it, I’m gonna use is as I want and whatever” Now I’m tempted to get the new stand, it seems more appealing to me.

The online authentication for the disc drives is absolutely ridiculous. Sony is doing exactly what Xbox got a lot of hate for in the last generation. Crazy how words and a statement can ruin everything. At this point Sony is making playing digital the only option by adding all these hurdles. They're not even trying to hide it anymore.

A very well done in-depth review on the PS5 Slim. That 30% size difference is actually quite noticeable. Glad to see you can stick one in your living room. And to be fair, the slim will grow on me in time, but there is no reason for me to swap my current 1216A PS5 for the slim, unless it breaks. But I love these in-depth reviews to see what's what.

The PS3 has been out for almost 20 years now and you can still find its latest 4.90 firmware patch online. Sony are definitely money hungry but they're also trying to maintain a loyal customer base, so I doubt they'll discontinue software patches for the PS5 long down the road.

The four plates, the fact that the top are glossy and the bottom are matte is not something I like either. And the disc drive attachment is way too pronounced compared to the rest of the console. Only plus of the slim in my opinion is the larger storage straight out of the box.

[@toastyburger]

[@konman2809]

The original model is just much better than this revision of the PS5. In fact, the PS5 that I have is the original model with the disc drive and was manufactured in February 2021, 3 months after its launch. The biggest problem with the Slim revision of the PS5 in my opinion is that the design looks really ugly and uninspiring compared to the look of the original model particularly with the line that runs across the upper portion of the console. They also made the upper top portion glossy while the bottom portion is made of the usual standard material, and the problem with the top being glossy is that it will get scratched too easily. Another problem with the Slim revision of the PS5 is the online check-in requirement for the disc drive. Understandable since Sony has to comply with DMCA laws and with the disc drive now being able to be attached and detached at will so, they enforce this check-in requirement to make sure that the user is not using unauthorized third-party disc drives with the PS5. However, if you skip the network connection process during setup with the disc drive attached, it will warn you that the disc drive will not work unless you connect it online and register the disc drive to your PS5 along with requiring an update of the PS5 System Software if you had not updated it already. They should've just enforced this online check-in just for movie playback and still have it read PS5 and PS4 game discs much like on the PS4 where you have to connect it to the internet to enable offline disc movie playback without having to connect the PS4 to the internet each time you want to watch a Blu-ray Disc or DVD on your console. This will cause a problem long-term when Sony eventually shuts down the PSN servers for the PS5, meaning that these disc drives could become electronic waste without issuing an update to allow for local pairing of the disc drive. Another problem with the Slim revision is that a multi-purpose stand is no longer included with the console out of the box unlike the original model which shipped with a multi-purpose stand out of the box so that you can position your PS5 horizontally or vertically. It only includes a horizontal stand. If you are people like me who always want to place our PS5 vertically, well too bad, you will have to purchase a vertical stand separately for $30. If you do not have a PS5 yet, grab the original model while you still can before the inventory of the OG model runs out.

[@hanzosiku]

Glad the OG Playstation channel took some time to do an unboxing of the ps5 slim.

[@eruannster]

While I will say that the online pairing for the drives is a bit annoying, I do really appreciate that they are easily interchangeable. The drives don't appear locked to a specific console, meaning you can reuse a drive from a borked console or just swap in a new drive if the old one breaks which is actually extremely nice for repairability since disc drives are one of the moving parts that may fail over time, and sending in your entire console for repairs kind of sucks.

A new software update will most likely change this lol

[@joshbucton2475]

@@Overqualificationdoubt it - the most “significant” advertising I’ve seen from Sony during the lead up to release was the ease of repairs/swaps with the portability of the new setup.

I'm glad the coil whine seems much improved. That's my biggest gripe with the OG model, let's hope it stays this way with the PS5 Pro.

Fully agree but that's because you're objectively correct and there's no denying this if you're being honest

At 4:00 we see how much you struggled with plugging in your HDMI cable. But don't worry everyone struggles with this. These cables are really something to change 😂

This was a very well edited and put together video.

Louder drive + fan and coil whine still not fixed. Great work, Sony. This and still not using hall sensors for sticks to fix stick drift. Here's your well-earned fuck-it-whatever award.

great video, I think they will update drive just to lock Blu Ray movies and just let games play with out checking drive

They shouldve launched the PS5 Dev Kit design. That thing looks fucking sick. My fav console design ever

[@DeadPhoenix86DP]

It looks bad.

Do you start daily driving the slim models when they come out? and if so, what do you do with the launch models? I didn't know they changed the status LED until this video... it's throwing me off

Were both disc drives doing the same thing(copying a game, checking for license)? For my OG PS5, I find that noise level of the vibration it causes depends on the rpm its going at, which also depends on what it's doing.

[@jackobyuk]

it all depend on how straight your game disc is. on expensive cd players they found a solution to this. sony is to cheap to care for their disc reader sadly.

Noone has said if you can buy the digital panel separately or how the stands work with it

[@Silver-5-0-5]

Which one are you going to use as your primary the original or the slim?

[@kalanafdo-x4k]

Thank you so much for the detailed review bro,you almost cover everything except new eject button inside on side cover. 😍

[@brse855]

thank you for this video , am considering on a slim model next year for FFVII Rebirth

The only man to trust with anything PlayStation.
