Sony PlayStation 5 Disc Console vs Sony PlayStation 5 Digital

Both are the same PS5 hardware, so the real choice is the disc drive. The Disc model (CFI-1115A) plays physical discs, including used games and 4K Blu-ray movies, and can resell discs later. The Digital model (CFI-1215B) is the same console without a drive, so every game must be downloaded and stored on the 825GB SSD. Buyers and reviewers rate the PS5 highly for its fast SSD, DualSense haptics and 4K output; the disc version is the safer pick if you want flexibility, the Digital if you never buy discs.

• Choose the PS5 Disc if you buy physical games, borrow or resell discs, or want to play 4K Blu-ray movies.
• Choose the PS5 Digital if you buy all your games from the PlayStation Store and want the slimmer console without a drive.
