Our test of the PS5 Slim on JVTECH
Points forts
- Smaller, lighter, more “all-purpose”
- A more elegant console
- The same performance as the standard PS5
- Ventilation revisited in a very small format!
Weak points
- Same price as PS5 Standard at launch
The PS5 Slim is part of the worthy lineage of home consoles made in Sony. If it does not offer major changes, it still marks the arrival of a smaller, lighter PS5 which offers the possibility of adding or not a disc reader. The ventilation has been revisited, which offers very good temperatures while maintaining a machine just as powerful as the classic PS5, yet more imposing. However, we regret a launch price similar to that of the standard PS5, unlike the Slim models of other generations, sold slightly less expensive.
