It is Sony’s refreshed PS5 disc console, offering the same next-generation performance as the original model in a smaller, lighter chassis with a 1TB ultra-high-speed SSD for more game storage. The Slim Standard Edition (CFI-2000 disc model) includes a detachable Ultra HD Blu-ray™ drive for physical PS5/PS4 games and 4K movie playback Inside, the PS5 Slim uses an 8-core AMD Ryzen “Zen 2” CPU and an AMD RDNA 2 GPU delivering up to 10.28 TFLOPS of graphics performance, paired with 16GB GDDR6 unified memory. This hardware enables smooth gameplay at up to 4K 120Hz, plus support for ray tracing, variable refresh rate (VRR) and HDR on compatible TVs and monitors. The built-in 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD drastically reduces load times compared to previous generations, and you can further expand storage using a compatible PCIe 4.0 M.2 SSD in the internal expansion slot, allowing you to keep more large PS5 titles installed at once. Sony’s DualSense controller features adaptive triggers and advanced haptic feedback, allowing games to simulate sensations such as weapon recoil, driving on different surfaces, or the tension of drawing a bowstring. Combined with the PS5’s Tempest 3D AudioTech and Dolby Atmos support on compatible setups, the PlayStation 5 Slim Standard Edition delivers highly immersive gameplay. Connectivity includes an HDMI 2.1 port, Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), Bluetooth 5.1, USB-A and USB-C ports, plus Ethernet. The console is largely backward compatible with most PS4 titles, letting you play a huge library of older games—many with enhanced frame rates or resolutions on PS5. Key Features More compact, lighter PS5 Slim design The PS5 Slim Standard Edition offers the same performance as the original PS5 in a smaller chassis and reduced weight (around 3.2 kg for the disc model), making it easier to place in TV units and media consoles. Detachable Ultra HD Blu-ray™ disc drive A removable disc drive lets you play physical PS5/PS4 games and 4K Blu-ray movies. If needed, the drive can be replaced separately instead of changing the whole console. Tempest 3D AudioTech & Dolby Atmos support 3D audio technology creates accurate positional sound through TV speakers or supported headsets, and recent system updates add Dolby Atmos support for compatible AV systems, improving immersion in supported titles. Hardware-accelerated ray tracing The RDNA 2 GPU provides ray tracing for realistic lighting, reflections and shadows in supported games, enhancing visual quality compared to PS4. Extensive PS4 backward compatibility Most PS4 games run on PS5 Slim, and many enjoy improved frame rates and loading times, giving you a large library on day one without rebuying titles. M.2 SSD expansion slot A user-accessible internal slot supports PCIe 4.0 M.2 SSDs, allowing you to add more fast storage beyond the built-in 1TB without external drives. Latest PS5 system software features Regular firmware updates add new options like 1440p support, VRR improvements, accessibility features and interface refinements, keeping the console updated over time.
