The source @phantompainss recently shared a set of hands-on pictures of the PS5 Slim and showed photos comparing it with the PS5 console.
Judging from the exposed pictures, the PS5 Slim has a smaller footprint and is not only slimmer than the standard PS5 but also several inches shorter. While the overall size is smaller, the same ports remain on the back, including an HDMI port, two USB ports, a power connector, and an Ethernet port.
The images also appear to confirm rumours that the PS5’s removable optical drive will require an internet connection during the setup process. One of the photos shows a notification that says “Your optical drive is unavailable. You need to connect your PS5 to a network to register the optical drive.”
The new PS5 has reduced its volume by more than 30% and its weight by 18% and 24%, and there is a raised part on the side of the new PS5 for housing the optical drive, which you can remove and replace with a side panel.
When sharing the photo, he also wrote: “Although it is still being set up, the new Slim version is very quiet.” He said that during the setup process, the new machine performed very quietly, which is undoubtedly gratifying news, especially for those players who value the gaming experience.
