Wasn’t a better option for me. I like being able to play my consoles straight out the box. I like the idea of connecting to internet being optional and not mandatory so I went for the original🤷. That whole having to register your disc drive is all fun and games when it works but I’ve already seen people dropped out off their games with notifications forcing them to re register their drives. Bugs happen. That’s not a bug you want to have😂.

I’ll say that again ONE TIME. After that, you are free to play as many offline disc games for as long as the ps5 may last you. It took me not even 1 minute to register and guess what… I don’t have to worry about it ever again in my my life want to know why? Because why in the hell will I be disconnecting my disc drive 😂

I felt like I was one of the few people who was lucky enough to get the console when it first came out so the memories of just trying to get the damn console back then will have a special place in my heart 😂

The "slim" is louder from what I've seen. It's pretty obvious it's got cheaper components in the slim to cut production costs down. They also over engineered the original PS5 and you have more expensive components (copper heatsink) I'm happy with the phatty. I was always cautious of the system being smaller with a detachable disc drive being louder makes sense

Where did you see those reports? mine is quiet and I’ve not noticed the fan kick in much if at all. All tests I’ve seen and read say it’s just as quiet and the temperature is the same. The PS5 Slim reported temperatures between 60 and 63 degrees, similar to those of the standard model. It also has an extra heat pipe and redesigned thermals. If they were cheaping out they wouldn’t have used the same Liquid Metal to keep it cool and would have used the cheaper thermal paste. Nor do any reports say it’s louder or that the fans start up more as it has a redesigned new 19 blade fan. You can bet if it did there would be many KZbinrs reporting it for views, and lots of complaints on social media. But there hasn’t been. Yours is the first I’ve seen and you don’t own one. It has the same 6nm SoC as later batches of the PS5 so runs just the same, but a little better and cooler than those OG PS5s with the 7nm.

Well now my question is, doesn’t the PS5 not really use the discs? I know you put the disc in once and then it can/needs to download the game from it. But then from there on out all it does is some super brief check to make sure the disc is inside so people don’t share infinite game copies. So I’d think that even playing a lot of disc games would not increase the wear and tear that much, at least not like it used too. They definitely just fail in general though overtime, especially after that recent incident with Sony deleting the shows people had outright bought on the store making sure we keep the physical stuff still going is really important

Given that they removed the vents/grills on the ‘slim’ I’m wondering how this will affect dust build up. The grills do a good job of reducing the dust build up between the plates and the console. Now that the front and top are completely exposed on the slim there’s nothing stopping dust getting straight into the fan. There also doesn’t seem to be any ‘dust catcher’ holes that you can vacuum dust out of like the previous models had. I’m wondering how this will affect maintenance and the longevity of the new design.

These consoles are going the PC route, it really makes no sense to buy a console anymore. I’m a PS fan since the original and own them all from the 90’s to today and consoles were always about cheap quick gaming. Throw in the disc and go, but today it’s totally different and cost more in the long run than a PC. In cdn we’re paying almost $800 for a PS5 with taxes and the PS plus membership is now $200/year. In the first year of ownership your at $1K. Add this up over a 7 year console lifespan and now your at $2200. That’s a steep price to pay for how low the performance is on todays consoles, their still only running on the old RDNA2 architecture with gen 1 ray tracing and can’t even give us 4K@120hz. The console struggles to give us 4K@60 and comes to a complete grind when we enable ray tracing. Yes it’s a decent console like the Xbox, but the cost to performance is way out to lunch and you can build a much better pc for the total operating cost of these consoles. The worst part of all this is the fact that you need some form of plus membership just to play online and the price just keeps going up and up for something that’s 100% free on pc even on the same multi platform games. Plus is really nothing more than a game trial service as we never own those “free” games (their not free lol) and get removed all the time without notice. Meanwhile on PC we can try out any game on steam for 2hrs absolutely free with no membership fees. We also get demos on pc and of course no multiplayer fees of any kind. The worst thing I’m seeing more and more is how Sony milks console users with each generation. So many people bought GTA5 3 times for PS 3/4/5 while on PC we get free graphic updates and simply move our sliders. Their doing this with so many games and refuse to unlock sliders in our consoles, it’s nuts buying a game 3 times and when you start adding up all the games you re purchased the total operating expense climbs much higher than $2200. Sony should’ve had an RDNA3 machine by now but even that is only gen 2 ray tracing but at least the cost to performance would be worth it. On PC we’re on gen 3 ray tracing and it doesn’t cost all that much to get in to a nice 4K or 1440P rig. By the time Sony release their pro machine we’re gonna be on gen 4RT in the pc world while their still generations behind. Once people really see all this and start doing the math I don’t see consoles surviving to long at those rates. It makes no sense to fork over that much for something that’s generations behind in architecture. RDNA2 is AMD’s 6000 series GPU’s and those are dirt cheap right now since nobody wants them due to their poor RT performance. The days of consoles are numbered if they keep on this path and exclusives won’t save them since those wars ended years ago. More and more developers stopped that exclusive nonsense after seeing how much they lost in sales, yes there are still a few exclusives but even the old ones are getting ported to pc. I laughed when I seen uncharted on PC, that was a Sony exclusive and never would I have thought Sony would let that go. My favourite PS game and bought that day 1 for my PC.

I just have the ps5 slim (with disc) on my media unit without any issues, also no kids or pets. I don't see it falling over as it's wedged between the TV and speaker. Though I didn't think about the weight being on the cover being an issue. I doubt it, but just in case I put some small rubber glue on feet on the bottom that fills in the space perfectly so there is less weight on the covers but the covers do touch still. The only thing I can think of for the vertical stand is that it muffles some of the disc noise/rumbling but it doesn't seem to have any type of rubber or foam anywhere to attenuate the sound so, meh

The smaller model makes it feel more premium and not over the top. When playing with the old model it feels like you should be getting more from a video game because of its size making it more eminent. While it being smaller makes it more like an underdog… getting more than what you expect. But I still think the design is bad

They moved the HDMI port, so you do not unplug the HDMI while the PS5s power cord is plugged in. Less chance of a HDMI short.

Im sure the plates for the phat will shoot up in price and doubt Sony will keep supporting them. I plan on grabbing the blue and silver at least

I just wish they made it into a box like the Xbox with the drive at the bottom. I like my consoles to be compact and easy to move. The ps5 seems to me like looks over function. They wanted something like the body of a car but to me it just looks gimmicky. Xbox in my opinion has a better design. Just a simple box that does the job and has some little accents

For the tiny stands that come with the ps5 slim, they should made a small compartment for you to store the little plastic stands so helps not to lose them

I dont know if it makes to anyone out there and I also dont care but my purchase decisison looks like this Lighter means less metal Less metal means more heat More heat means faster fan faster fan means more noise and dust over time.. More dust means shorter life. Am I willing to take a console that is cheaper to produce but cost me the same as the no corners cut version for only 150 gigs more hdd but no stand included. I am happy with my purchase of the OG in November 2023 at CAD 649 Also the bundled Spider-man game made it worth all the wait.

So I've heard that the PS5 can only hold between 15-16 games at a time and I was wondering what that really means and how much stock I should put in that?

It can hold as many games as your storage space allows for. I’ve got a 2T SSD in mine in addition to the onboard storage (original model) and I have plenty of space for my needs. You can put up to a 4T SSD in there. If every game was 100GB (many games are much smaller in size) that would give you enough space for over 40 games.

It was between a ln old PS5 with no games, or the slim with Spider-Man 2 and a bit more memory. Same price. It was a no brainer

The slim is not better than the OG. In fact, the removable disk drive, design and slightly smaller design isn't enough to counter the production cost cut down it got. People are talking about the heatsink that is better in the OG. But what people don't talk about is they removed the dust vents off the OG for the slim design. Meaning, dust is more easily able to land and go into the sides of the console and dust up your fans. Thus throttling performance.
