PS3 Slim Compared To Playstation 3 “FAT”
By OnTopic | March 4, 2010
The PS3 Slim is a highest product when compared with the PS3 80/160GB models. This relatively inexpensive, feature packed, versatile gaming machine, multimedia hub and outstanding Blu-ray player, earns back the 5th star that I granted the Classic models and I didn’t feel that the PS3 80/160GB models deserved.
The older PS3s weren’t particularly noisy but the PS3 Slim seems to be more quiet and, after several hours of play, the Slim didn’t get as warm as my Classic. The 2 USB ports bother me a little because I brought along the Eye, a USB-wired HDD, a USB keyboard and a dongle-based wireless keyboard. That meant that I had to do a lot of plugging and unplugging when investigating. In real existence, it’s not so opportune to aim a mechanism and admittance much than one USB-connected circumferential. There are third party generic USB hubs (ugly) or PS3-specific port extenders and media hubs that could be used to increase the number of USB ports and bring back the media card slots.
The better interestingness is that you can do retributory about everything you did with the PS3 80/160GB models and in the perfect corresponding way. During my test ride, I was able to play all the games I brought with me without a problem, the Bluetooth remote controller was recognized immediately and so was the Playstation Eye. Both a USB-dongle full-size wireless keyboard, a USB-connected wired keyboard and Sony’s own Bluetooth mini-keyboard worked as expected. I was able to upload pictures, videos and music from a USB thumb drive and a USB-connected SATA 2.5″ hard disk and play them in the same way I do it on my own Playstation 3.
On my overall image of the Slim is “zero new” at lowest on layer. But PS3 Slim more cooler, quieter, smaller, and more energy efficient – you don’t notice while playing a game or watching a movie. The really great news about the PS3 Slim is that so many more will be able to afford it and, with a larger user base, more developers will feel more strongly motivated to publish more, better games that all of us will enjoy. This is the best buy product.
