The Super Slim does have two reasons that make it worthy of a recommendation for potential first-time buyers PS3 or would-be upgraders. The Slim models (that’s the last generation PS3 models) are still available for $250 and $300, and frankly are better deals than the new Super Slim. It’s more expensive than past Slim models, and today you can find older model PlayStation 3 units for less than $150. The Super Slim is not worth upgrading to for those who already own a PS3. Applications and games run and load at the same speed on all iterations of the PS3.

Thankfully, they’re as quite affordable (as long as you avoid retailers such as Best Buy).Īll of the software is identical across all PS3 models. It’s actually amazing that Sony is shipping a game console in 2012 without any HD cables. The Super Slim still comes with built-in Wi-Fi, only two USB 2.0 ports (compared to the first two models’ four ports), and ships without an HDMI cable.

The other issue for those moving from an older PS3 to this model: Transferring your data from an older PS3 to a newer one is both a painful and awfully slow process. But it’s nothing that any current PS3 owner can’t already get for just $50, a screwdriver, and half hour or so to switch out hard drives.

Anyone who uses their PS3 as a media center or who takes full advantage of Sony’s initiative to make new games available for direct download upon release will love the bigger drive.

That makes it great for downloading movies, TV shows, and storing all of your game installs while rarely worrying about running out of space. But a cheaper-looking and -feeling console that’s more expensive? That’s ridiculous.Īll that additional $20 really pays for is the step up from a 120GB hard drive to 250GB one, which doubles the storage capacity but doesn’t increase speed. It may be lighter and thinner, and it may sell as a bundle with a year-old game (Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception - Game of the Year Edition, a popular third person action-adventure), $30 of in-game currency for the upcoming free-to-play online first-person shooter Dust 514, and a month of PlayStation Plus. I understand that Sony wants to keep costs down, but the Super Slim is actually more expensive than the past Slim model, which still sells for $250. Press a button and the top of the tray flings open to reveal the disc tray.Ĭompared to the original PS3 - which uses touch sensors for the power and disc removal buttons - the Super Slim looks and feels like Sony spent millions of dollars to build a device that would look futuristic … in the ’80s. The Super Slim has an actual spring-action lock to open up the try. You know, instead of a mechanical or touch-sensitive button like most Blu-ray, DVD, and CD-ROM drives have had years. What makes the Super Slim the ugly duckling of the PS3 family is the new Blu-ray tray, which opens with a spring-release button. It can stand upright, but I wouldn’t recommend it without a stand the featherweight 4.62 pound console is easy to tip over with a gentle push. Just take a look at the gallery below and judge for yourself. It’s glossy on the front and back and with a ridged, matte finish on the Blu-ray tray I haven’t seen an uglier home console in over 10 years. The new look is as drastic a change from the past models as it can be without becoming a 360. This is where the 190W PSU really comes in handy. You can leave it on by accident and not notice because it’s so quiet. It’s silent compared to the jumbo jet Xbox 360 Slim and even a whisper side-by-side with the Wii. The Super Slim is the quietest home console I’ve ever used. The Super Slim does offer one major improvement: quiet fans. Depending on which model, the Slim already thinned out with either a 250W, 230W, or 200W PSU. You won’t see a major difference in your electric bill if you own the PS3 Slim. The 190W PSU uses half the power of the original PS3, which besides being one of the largest game consoles in history also has a massive 380W PSU. The biggest difference between the Super Slim and previous PS3 models is the power supply (PSU, or power supply unit). And since any PS3 allows for simple hard drive upgrades, it’s much cheaper to buy a new drive than buying a whole new console if you want more space. But the few additional features in the Super Slim don’t warrant a new purchase for those with older PS3s. Either you don’t actually own a PS3 and decided that this holiday is the special one, or you have one of the original “fat” models and want to upgrade. I’ve found only two good reasons to buy the Super Slim.
