    I don’t think the slim will be any better than the current models. It sounds like they are doing it to simplify their lineup. One console with an optional detachable blu ray drive. They are likely sticking to TSMC’s 7nm process, so the SoC won’t get any smaller or less power hungry.

      I don’t really care about any of that, I just hate how huge the console is.

        I’m saying the new console won’t be much smaller if at all.

    A slim doesn’t exist. The new model is the same thickness and slightly shorter.

      It’s the PS5 Short King.

      Does the pro exist? I’ve seen so much conflicting information.

      Is this an Xbox 360 reference? I was so confused as to why they called that “slim”.

        Slim has been what the community calls many PlayStation console refreshes, because they are usually thinner. This isn’t a Sony term though and not true for this refresh.
