PS5 Slim: First real images – see how small it is

We are just a few days away from its release PlayStation 5 Slim It seems that the new version of Sony’s console has already arrived in stores. Specifically, the X (formerly Twitter) user with the nickname @phantompainss He found a console bundle with the upcoming Modern Warfare 3 game at a store in his area, which he decided to purchase. Somehow, we have the first images of the console being transformed in real life.

The new model – which is not theoretically called Slim, but simply PS5 – has been reduced in size, according to official statistics, by more than 30%, with weight reduced by up to 25%. Meanwhile, the dimensions of the new PS5 are 358 x 96 x 216 mm (width x height x depth), while the original model has corresponding external dimensions of 390 x 104 x 260. Accordingly, the new digital model has dimensions of 358 x 80 x 216mm, while the current PS5 Digital Edition has external dimensions of 390mm x 92mm x 260mm.

Of course, how these numbers translate into reality is another matter, so below you’ll find relevant photography materials released by @phantompainss to give you a better idea.

Of course, at this point it should be noted that the user also made a very worrying observation. The new PS5 practically does not work without an Internet connection, as even the model with the drive pre-installed requires a digital link via the PlayStation Network. This means that the console cannot be used to play physical copies of games unless it is connected to the Internet at least once, with implications for historical preservation, a serious problem facing the industry.
