NoNe of my others have been dropped but the Ps3 on launch wasn't bulletproof, nor was ps2... a few of the disc trays had issues for people.... and DVD read errors. Ps1 overheat and the eyes tracker would stop gliding due to lubrication heat issues. Like I've been around. Hahaha.

An important thing is Sony has never officially called this the slim. As far as they’re concerned, it’s just a revision. I believe they think this because this model seems less about making it slim, and more on cutting production cost. Of course this means it eventually ends up being slightly smaller, but the big part is the module disc drive. This allows them to basically produce the same ps5 model, only having to add the disc drive for those specific models. It most likely is a purely business reason to cut overall cost down. And it’s not targeting people so already have one, but those who don’t. Unfortunately it didn’t get a price cut even with these cost saving measures.

I think the slim is better tbh. I got mine in May and it’s very quiet. The increased internal storage is a huge plus for me! I own the digital edition as I never bothered to buy any discs for my PS4; I had that console for 7 and a half years and only picked up 5 disc games (with over 200 owned digital games). I own 48 digital PS5 games and don’t think I’ll even buy the disc drive for it in the future either! I might eventually if I find one for cheap and when the physical games go down enough in price to justify it.

The only reason the slim is better cause the storage is a bit higher and that’s how the base ps5 should’ve came idk what Sony was thinking and the size doesn’t make it better, smaller slim models of PlayStations are always cheaper and they cut things out obviously to make them smaller but hey take things out and sell it for the same price as before what a deal right? Nah the base ps5 and base models of past PS imo are always superior than the slims

You raise some great points, Mr Basement Gamer, and I find myself agreeing with all of them. By the way, they may have made both ports on the front of the console USB-C sized, but one of them is still only USB2 speed, just like the originals. So no improvement there. Look at it as a tangible sign of Sony losing their way - it's a Slim that's not that slim as compared to previous generation Slim versions, and it's not cost reduced either. Sony were still making profit on the original sized models as of about late 2021/early 2022 I think, so they'll presumably be making more on these too. It's funny because the sales of the console are flattening on the curve and the lack of a price cut is clearly why. Oh well. The prices going up on PS Plus will probably placate them.

This was made to push people into buying the digital only console, since the majority of Playstation software is sold digitally, with physical on the decline, its a psychological tatic, they want you to see how expensive the physical version is so you're more likely to get the all digital version +the stand+games, maybe another controller and a headset, so you think youre getting a better savings, when you're really not. Apparently its working because the Playstation is out selling the Xbox 4 to 1 or even 5 to 1.

Sony and Playstation constantly want too save money and in turn make money. Ponies always rave about ''consoles sold'', but they never seem too listen or acknowledge the news that Sony/Playstation are NOT earning the amounts they need. What cracks me up is, their BiPolar approach to hardware. This generation alone, 5 Revisions of the standard PS5 console Then the PS5 Slim Then the disc drive if you buy the all digital Then the PSVR2 (not selling and now made mammoth price cuts) Then the PS Portal Then all the revision's and designs of their Pro Controllers (which again have not sold the way they want) Then all but confirmed the PS5 Pro All this hardware that is NOT NEEDED, costs s##t loads too make! PSVR just isn't wanted by the masses - waste of money The revisions of the PS5, the digital, the extra hard drive, the slim - waste of money The PS5 Pro, total joke considering Playstation have NOTHING OUT NOW that is fantastic and pushes the standard PS5 too it's limits, let alone needing a Pro model - will be a waste of money Just seems Playstation were known for their incredible single player games, and pushing their hardware too the limits, yet now in 2024, the games have dried up, the PS5 hasn't been pushed, and all Sony care about is pushing the next product. The last MASSIVE power house of a company that acted like this, was SEGA in the 90's...... and we all know how that ended.

@garydiamondguitarist Sad part is I reckon both Sony and Microsoft think of ways to make your controller last barely any time. They probably try get it lasting 1 year as a goal so it goes past the warranty. I went through a 3 month phase where I went through so many elite Xbox controllers because of stick drift. For some reason the white variant that released in 2019 kept breaking. So they certainly could make the controllers last so much longer. Look at old controllers from years ago and they still working!! I picked up an Xbox 360 and it came with a old Xbox 360 controller which was atleast 15 years old because it was the Xbox 360 elite controller. The buttons did stick when I pressed them but when I opened it up and cleaned it it's bloody good as new!! No new parts required. Only issue with Xbox 360 controller was the rubber would rub off the sticks but that's easy to replace. Sony has made so many versions of the duelsense which is concerning as they each newer one probably got cheaper parts. They thinking oh that variant isn't drifting soon enough so let's make it worse on the next

It is slimmer. This PS5 is meant for new customers. Takes up less space. It isn't meant for you to replace your current OG PS5. If you are a hardware geek then yeah getting the new slim is great as it looks like the most modern PS5 even though many people say it looks ugly. Also PS5 Pro gonna be expensive. PS5 slim is the entry level system and will get great games for many many years. Also when PS released it they didn't make a big deal out of it because it was never meant to be something amazing. It's just cheaper to make. Black Friday they will become cheaper. Also Sony rarely call it the Slim. Basically it's better than nothing. It's a bit smaller which is great. It's like the ps4 slim.

Slim console are not made to be "worth it" for the buyers vs the Fat versions. It's meant for them to lower costs and sell the consoles at the same price point roughly of the original Fat's price. Also. I think Sony never officially calls their playstations "slim," it's just shops and websites that call it "slim" for it to be easier than calling it PS5 revision CECH0123 or w/e codes they use nowadays. I think it was always a way to "lower costs", and for the consumers, I think (at least for ps3 and ps2) they were also meant to consume less energy.

This generation I've played ONE game that isn't available on the ps4. I had a PS4 pro with an ssd before I bought the ps5 and I feel like I wasted my money on upgrading. I would have been fine with the PS4 pro.

The entire point of the ps5 slim is to just update the from the original model for new buyers. It's not supposed to be an upgrade for owners of the original. You would know that if u rubbed two brain cells together. This model replaces the original model so yes it is necessary just as much as the original model was cuz the original model isn't gonna be sold anymore. Maybe do your research. Btw the detachable disc drive comes with the physical version. You don't have to buy that separately. I feel like ppl just complain to complain these days

Still buying games for my PS4 library almost up to 50 games I think 🤔 and waiting on 2 pre orders currently one won't be out till 2025. Building a switch game collection slowly on the side while I wait to see if the switch 2 will be backwards compatible with the switch games if not I'll be forced to buy a switch 1 at a later time.

I’m glad I got two original PS5’s for me and my son I don’t like the PS5 slim it doesn’t look premium to me. Also the PS5 slim was made for the masses that couldn’t get the original playstation 5 it’s the only reason. I’m not buying the PS5 pro either not much difference i’ll buy the playstation 6 instead I also bought an xbox series x in October 2022 it was easier to get.🥂😏

It's cheaper to produce. Less heatsink and less plastic. Song didn't want you to buy another one nor did they brand it as slim.

I don't even own a PS5 see no point in buying one to play a few games that are actually new and not on anything else or will be on anything else in current time's. The PC with a 30 series card or greater and GOG or Steam or other sources help with that play online free in most cases depending on titles and most games have controller support or you can add it in by tampering around with settings.

My ps5 is the original, with custom plates, and my main system. I got the slim ps2,3,and4. I was gonna wait, but it seemed like it was not gonna happen, and I got a good deal on a new one, that was returned. The slim ps5 is good, if u don’t have one, but not necessary if u do. I always put my consoles horizontal, and do t like the vertical look. Ps5 pro will be another money hog, to do what we were promised on the ps5 in 2020. Just make better games, not more systems. Play ps3 games on a ps3 (with the ps5 controller, see video on my channel) play ps2 games on a ps2. And ps1 games on a ps2,3,or original. The systems are still good, even with the new ones out.

I switched from Console to PC in 2019 and gladly switched back to Console in 2021. The argument of “free online” is a silly reason to just automatically opt into PC. If you’re just simply trying to play games, objectively console is super easy to get into from a casual gamer perspective. Both price and UI functionality. PC’s target audience is for settings tinkerers, resolution snobs, frame rates for FPS games, overall enthusiasts, and for people who mod games or emulate classic titles. All great reasons to get a PC. PC is awesome! But why that group of gamers has so much hate for people who chose console is baffling to me. Not everyone needs to have this crazy build and monitor setup. Some people just wanna play COD on their 75” TV 😂😂😂
