    No one on youtube mentions about laying down the ps5 on its side instead, they are always showing the ps5 standing up. I had discs always fall out and landing on the ground everytime the discs are being exposed with the bottom surface of the discs always ended up landing on the ground when I had the console standing up instead of the console laying down on its side. There is also a chance of someone accidentally knocking the ps5 over when it’s being stood up and the ps5 hitting the ground when it’s standing up as a opposed to laying the ps5 on its side. All the consoles before the ps5 were always laying on its side. It always made sense to keep the console laying down on its side because it was easier to keep the console inside of a tv stand since tv stands comes in all shapes and sizes. Standing up the console on a tv stand will not always work with every tv stand since the tv stand might be too small to fit the ps5 when having the ps5 standing up so it makes more sense to lay on its side since it mostly likely fit better with every tv stand. For instance, on my tv stand. I have my yamaha hs50m studio monitors on rockville speaker stands, full size desktop pc, sony 4k blu ray player, xbox series x laying on its side instead of standing up, my ps4 pro and my ps3 super slim all on the same tv stand. Not everyone home theater set up are the same. I have my home theater set up in a certain way so some of my consoles and my other other electronic devices fit on my tv stand so I can switch between each device depending on what I feel like using at the time. It also helps having a samsung one connect box to connect all my electronic devices to the hdmi ports on the samsung one connect box. I have a ton of game consoles from old to new but they won’t all fit on the same tv stand so I ended up using some of my consoles that use hdmi and have them all fit on my tv stand and my tv is a 65 inch samsung curve qled 4k tv is next to all my other electronic devices on the same tv stand.

    The console is wide enough to stand vertically on it’s own so you don’t need the $35 stand.

    • SGG SQUAD PRESENTS

      The console should be set horizontally since the liquid metal inside starts to pool inside.

    I like this for upgradeablity to “the next disc type.” I’m curious if the disc port will be used for other drive types, maybe an 8tb optical. Cheers

    this thing is so ugly my gosh….

    • Fawkk YuTuu

      November 14, 2023 at 3:52 pm

      Yup one of the ugliest consoles of all time , the only Sony console uglier was PS3 Super Slim.

    So no die size shrink, thermals are thus the same if not worse, size is slightly smaller, lots of cost cutting with the design and details, cheaper looking vertical stand now an extra $30, same price. Pass.

  9. Arthur Gorbach

    November 14, 2023 at 12:47 pm

    Will wait for the PRO version

  10. Clive K

    Don’t need the 30 dollar stand its perfectly fine without it ….

    The slim version looks little better than the regular one

  12. V N R

    November 14, 2023 at 1:22 pm

    Why not just make one version of the console ………… this doesn’t make sense to me lol

    • Nick P

      They save money. Takes less materials to build a smaller console. Newer, smaller components are easier to cool so you can use a cheaper cooling system. More mature components could reduce $ spent fixing defects. Less weight means lower shipping costs.

    If you have a Ps5 digital why would you need to bear in mind when upgrading that the disk drive needs a internet connection to activate it. Wouldn’t you presume that you already have an internet hence reason for getting the digital version in the first place 💀💀💀

    Ah, the Vector design is _definitely_ paying for something?…

    “You’re gonna need to buy the $30 vertical stand” – or you could just, I don’t know.. Stand it upright without one like you’ve been able to do with everything since the PS2?

  19. Mario Ins

    November 14, 2023 at 2:46 pm

    IS NOT THE SLIM VERSION. Sony never said it, it is just a revision.

    • Eternal Nightingale

      November 15, 2023 at 5:46 am

      Dude fans/ comsumers call it slim it’s been like that since the beginning whenever Sony releases a revision of the original cause it’s smaller, also if you check on PS direct they have it listed as “model group slim” so yea

  20. Chris C

    November 14, 2023 at 3:26 pm

    Have they released the digital version on this “slim” ps5?

    • feedbacker

      no

    Bought the ps5 slim on launch day and I really like the look of it sitting Vertical except I would like black plates on it

    2TB of storage should be the minimum already!!!

    First video I ever saw on YouTube with the vertical stand. Looking good. I only wish SONY would just come out with it on Europe. That is disappointing. If it doesn’t come this year, after waiting 3 years to get one, I will give up on PlayStation ecosystem forever. I am quite happy ever since Valve released the Steam Deck. Gave up my PS4 Pro completely since then.

    • Selective

      November 14, 2023 at 10:16 pm

      Where in Europe are you? I can walk into any store or go on any website and buy a PS5 on sale for £430 or £479 with MW3 and I’m in the Uk

    • Big Phil

      November 15, 2023 at 4:34 am

      @SelectiveI think he means wishing the slim was avail in Europe.

    It feels not long ago that people stopped paying resell pricing.

  27. Jon

    November 14, 2023 at 10:15 pm

    I want to see it as slim as the PS2 version.

  28. Nico

    November 14, 2023 at 10:28 pm

    Hey mate, when is this being released in Australia? Crikey we’re always the last to get stuff down under. ☹️

    There are benefits to both production and to the consumer in having the device smaller. It fits places easier, it’s cheaper to make. That’s it. Simple. It’s not significantly cheaper or smaller, so it would be silly to sell your original PS5 in order to get this version, BUT it has some perks if you’re thinking about getting one for the first time.

  30. Bruce Pucci

    November 14, 2023 at 10:55 pm

    Why does every YouTube video mention that you have to have an internet connection to use the disc drive? Does that matter at all?

  31. Juan H

    November 14, 2023 at 11:20 pm

    As much as I want a ps5 i don’t really need one at the moment, I’ll wait for the pro version instead if it ever comes out

  32. Stu G

    November 14, 2023 at 11:27 pm

    When I first got the ps5 st launch I swore I’d trade it in for a smaller redesign asap. I’ve since re arranged my setup to accommodate its bigger size and now am indifferent. The fact that this is barely smaller means I see little reason to “upgrade” for 95% of existing Ps5 owners

    • JMoriarty

      November 15, 2023 at 4:00 am

      Ya it’s not much of a difference in size to upgrade if you have the original

  33. Yunior

    November 15, 2023 at 12:11 am

    What a waste of money. Glad I don’t play video games anymore

  34. Mister Schnitzel

    Terrible design, both the fat and this newer one that is practically the same.

    Excellent review. Best review on the PS5 slim actually because you compared it with other competing consoles.

    Yeah you clown you also can’t add a disc drive to the digital edition. Be fair

    Ok, so an even smaller router. Woohoo🎉

  41. James Green

    So the slim digital edition is now more expensive. Wft is going on.

    I like this guy. He gets straight to the point and is not snarky. I hope CNET keeps him around.
