Amazon shoppers have also praised the Playstation 5 slim, with more than 1500 five star ratings at the moment.
One said: “The PlayStation 5 Slim is a fantastic upgrade from the original PS4. It’s sleeker, lighter, and more compact, making it easier to fit into any entertainment setup. The performance remains top-notch with fast load times and stunning graphics. The modular design, including a removable disc drive, adds great flexibility. While it’s still a bit pricey, it’s a worthwhile investment for any gamer looking to enhance their gaming experience.”
Another agreed: “You immediatley notice the difference between this and the PS4, particularly in loading times. The visual difference comes more when paired with a 4K TV/Monitor. Also fan is quiet, only sometimes the disc drive can be loud when copying a game disc (which can be fixed, as far as I’m aware). Even so, if you are a gamer I’d get this. A clear improvement on its predecessor.”
One did caution: “Great console – but you won’t get the free 24-month premium voucher (worth £200+) from buying here so probably better to order from Sony or another retailer directly in the long run.”
Whilst another added: “Everything works fine. The only problems are that the station doesn’t come with stands pr a charger for the controller. And for some reason the PS5 slim doesn’t have 1TB. It instead has 825 GB like a standard PS5.”
However another was thrilled, writing: “As a pc player this console is great fun and has plenty of great exclusives that look amazing in 4k and perform fantastic they are definitely worth getting into.”
