Our take on the Sony PlayStation 5 Slim Console

The PS5 Slim is Sony's smaller, lighter revision of the PlayStation 5, released in November 2023. It keeps the same internal power as the original: a custom AMD chip with ray tracing, 4K output up to 120fps, 3D Audio, haptic feedback and adaptive triggers on the DualSense, and a 1TB ultra-high-speed SSD for near-instant loads. The main changes are size and storage: it is noticeably more compact than the launch model and ships with 1TB instead of 825GB. It suits players who want current-generation Sony exclusives and fast loading, and it competes with the Xbox Series X on raw power and with the cheaper Series S on value, while offering a disc drive on the standard model.
