Our take on the PlayStation 5 Console Slim

The PlayStation 5 Slim is Sony's smaller, lighter revision of the PS5, with a 1TB SSD and the same AMD hardware inside. It plays PS5 games at up to 4K and 120fps on compatible TVs, supports ray tracing, and runs over 4,000 PS4 titles. The bundled DualSense controller adds haptic feedback and adaptive triggers, and ASTRO's Playroom is included. It suits players who want the full PS5 library without the original console's bulk; the rival Xbox Series X has more raw storage and a disc drive on every model, while this base version is disc-free and needs the optional drive for physical games.
