Sony PlayStation 5 Slim Disc Edition vs Sony PS5 Digital Edition Slim

Both are the same PS5 Slim hardware, so performance, load times, DualSense features and 4K/120Hz output are identical. The Disc Edition adds an Ultra HD Blu-ray drive, which lets you play physical discs, watch Blu-ray movies and resell or lend games; the Digital Edition is lighter and has no drive. Reviewers and owners consistently praise the fast SSD and controller, and note the Slim's smaller size over the original. Buy the Disc Edition if you own or borrow discs; buy the Digital Edition if you buy everything from the PlayStation Store.

• Choose the PS5 Disc Edition if you own physical games, rent discs, watch Blu-ray movies, or want the option to resell games later.
• Choose the PS5 Digital Edition if you buy all your games digitally and want the lighter, drive-free console.
