The new rumor:



The possible PS5 Slim console with double SSD storage? (The current PS5 Fat console with PS5 internal SSD hard drive, whose capacity is 825 GB and only SSD storage.)

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

I think that's more of his wish list than an actual rumor

 

[Robb]

A slim that’s half the size of the original would be fantastic, I’d buy that (given it’d be available) in a heartbeat.

 

[Daniel_Mallorca1985]

I have an idea! It is if console PS5 Slim double storage SSD 825 GB × 2 = 1.65 TB

Zubytech makes guesses and has no inside knowledge.

P.s. He also blocked me for correcting his maths

What does he mean by 'robot with artificial intelligence will launch for ps5'

Do you have the current ps5?

If yes, how can a smaller machine with same specs justify that price just because its smaller?

 

[Physiognomonics]

I highly doubt it as storage is expensive. Double SSD storage will maybe be there for the future premium model: PS5 Pro.

They still sell PS4s with the same amount of storage than at launch. They are going to apply the same strategy for PS5.

Storage is not ruining short on ps5 at all. It wouldn't be a selling point

Might be worth $550 to have a console that fits inside your entertainment system instead of a giant ugly postmodernist sculpture taking up room next to your TV

OP, this is just a wish/prediction list. Not a ‘rumor’

 

[vivftp]

OP was in such a rush to post, they bumped their old thread and created a new one. A shame they didn't notice this was just a personal prediction rather than a rumor.

Favourite slim designs:

Yeah I dont know about that.

You knew the console was a big ugly tower when you bought it. Could have waited for the slim or whatever.

I just think its a bit crazy having paid 1000 euro in total for the same product just smaller.

Of course you can get alot on it back thanks to how hard it is to get, but still.

No, I’m holding off for either a Pro or Slim.

Not sure I understand the question. I can’t remember the cost of the Ps2/Ps3/PS4 Slim, were they significantly cheaper than the original or something?

 

[sendit]

Rumor? or some sick fetish fandom?

 

[Rusty Shackelford]

Anyone can make predictions. This is dumb.

 

[Moses85]

Why is a slim model this important?

 

[NeonGhost]

Why is a slim model this important?

Just how console cycles work

 

[RoboFu]

I just hope it’s a radical departure from the launch ps5 that was obviously designed by the people who make glade plugins.

 

[StarPlatinumTheWorld]

Personally I’m holding off until a Pro model comes out, otherwise I’m good with my launch model.
