Our take on the Sony PlayStation 5 Slim Disc Edition

The PS5 Slim is Sony's smaller, lighter revision of the PlayStation 5, with a 1TB SSD and a built-in Ultra HD Blu-ray drive. It runs the same 8-core AMD Zen 2 CPU, RDNA 2 graphics and 16GB GDDR6 memory as the original, so games look and play the same. The disc drive is now a detachable module, and the console is about 30% smaller by volume. Its best new price is $660.64 at Best Buy as of November 8, 2026, which is high for this console and well above its typical sale prices.

What reviewers say

Owners generally rate the PS5 Slim as the version to buy if you want discs, praising the smaller size, the 1TB drive and the quiet running. Complaints center on the flimsy-feeling stand, the disc drive's noise and the fact that it is a mild refresh rather than a power upgrade.

What people mention
  • SizePraisedOwners say it fits on shelves and in TV stands where the original PS5 did not.
  • Disc driveMixedThe detachable drive is handy for physical games, but it adds noise and bulk.
  • StandCriticisedThe included plastic stand is described as flimsy and prone to wobbling when vertical.
  • StoragePraisedThe 1TB SSD is seen as a real improvement over the original's 825GB.
  • NoiseMixedThe fan is quiet in play, but the disc drive is loud during installs and spin-ups.
  • PerformanceMixedIt matches the original PS5, which some buyers see as fine and others as no reason to upgrade.
