PS5 Slim Disc Console 1TB + Portal Bundle vs PlayStation 5 Digital Slim ASTRO BOT Bundle

Buy the Disc bundle if you want a disc drive, 1TB of storage and a PlayStation Portal for streaming away from the TV. Buy the Digital ASTRO BOT bundle if you only download games and want the lower-cost entry into the same console. Both run the same games at the same 4K/120fps performance, so the choice comes down to the drive, storage and the extra screen. Owners rate the PS5 highly for fast loading and the DualSense, and the main complaints are storage filling up and the Portal needing a solid Wi-Fi connection.

  • Choose the PS5 Disc Slim with Portal if you own disc games or Blu-rays, want 1TB built in, and will use the Portal to play off-TV.
  • Choose the PS5 Digital Slim ASTRO BOT bundle if you buy games digitally and want the console with a pack-in game and no disc drive.

What reviewers say

PS5 Slim Disc Console 1TB + Portal Bundle

  • 4.6 / 512,207 ratings

Rated 4.6 out of 5 from 12,207 ratings, the bundle is well received overall. Owners like the quieter, smaller console and the fast SSD, while the Portal draws mixed views for its dependence on a good network.

What people mention
  • Size and noisePraisedOwners say the slim console is smaller and runs quieter than the original PS5.
  • Load timesPraisedThe SSD is repeatedly credited with near-instant loading in games.
  • Portal streamingMixedThe Portal works well on strong Wi-Fi but stutters or drops on weaker home networks.
  • StorageCriticised1TB is an improvement, but owners still fill it quickly with large installs.

PlayStation 5 Digital Slim ASTRO BOT Bundle

Owners and reviewers rate the Slim Digital as a solid, quieter revision of the PS5 with the same performance and a bigger SSD. ASTRO BOT is widely praised as one of the best platformers on the system and a strong showcase for the controller.

What people mention
  • SizePraisedOwners say the Slim is noticeably smaller and lighter than the original PS5 and easier to fit on a shelf.
  • NoisePraisedReviewers report it runs quietly in most games, quieter than the launch model.
  • StorageMixedThe 1TB SSD is an improvement, but owners say large games still fill it quickly.
  • ASTRO BOTPraisedPlayers call the bundled game inventive and charming, and a great demo of the DualSense.

Questions and answers

Which is better for someone with a stack of PS4 disc games?
The Disc bundle. The Digital model cannot read discs at all, so your PS4 discs will not work on it.
Do both run games the same?
Yes. Both use the same CPU, GPU and SSD, so frame rates and load times match. The difference is the drive, storage and bundled extras.
Is the Portal worth having?
If you share a TV or like playing in another room, yes. It streams from your console over Wi-Fi, so a weak network makes it stutter.
Which lasts longer?
Both should last a console generation. The Digital has fewer moving parts; the Disc model's drive is the only extra wear item.
Can I add storage to either?
Yes. Both accept an M.2 NVMe SSD, which matters more on the 825GB Digital model.
Should I step up to the Disc bundle?
Step up if you want discs, 1TB or the Portal. If you buy everything digitally, the Digital bundle covers the same gaming.
