The PS5 Slim has been the shining star of this year's Black Friday PS5 gaming deals. While the UK price drop for the brand-new PS5 Pro definitely wins the top prize for taking me by surprise this month, its been the slimmer version of Sony's pixel-pushing beast that's taken the spotlight. As I was keeping an eye on price drops long before♑ November even began, I knew the Slim was going to see some juicy savings. But the roll out of new record low prices across the board for both the disc and digital versions of the Slim model has been a welcome🌸 sight to behold - but it's not going to stay that low for long.
Currently the PS5 Slim is just if you're after the disc edition. With stocks of the official disc drive almost non-existent, this is a great option, especially as the retailer has it listed for a saving of $75, the lowest I've ever seen it go for. Of course, the digital version is even cheaper, coming in at , also saving you $75 that you can put towards even more 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Black Friday PS5 deals - that's up to you.
Should you buy a PS5 Slim this Black Friday?
I already have a PS5 and was very lucky to wade my way through the trenches that were the PS5 launch stock issues to get my console. It wasn't easy, but I've been more than happy with my big chonky console ever since. 𝕴Like with any aged tech, it is starting to show its age ever so slightly, so I can't deny that the PS5 Slim has been on my mind, e♑specially after seeing these Black Friday deals.
Whether you want the disc and digital edition of the Slim console, they both come with a whole host of upgrades that are worth picking up if you want an upgrade. Both Slim models have a 1TB SSD storage capacity, which is still less of the 2TB of that of the PS5 Pro, but is more than enough to download December's upcoming monthly PS Plus without having to delete anything in its stead. I'm currently stuck with the 825GB of the original PS5 and I can't emphasise enough how measly that amount is. I play my PS5 almost every day and more often than not, I'm spending that time deleting games to save space thanꦡ actually playing anything.
If you've been eyeing up Walmart's PS5 Slim deals because you aren't a fan how massive the original PS5 is, then I have good news on that front. The PS5 Slim is considerably smaller than it's hefty counterpart. Don't get me wrong, the Slim still has some meat to it, but at a width of 14.1 inches it's considerably less than the 15.3 inches of the launch model. When I first got the original PS5 I had to buy a whole brand-new TV cabinet just to have a place to put it, so if you pick up the PS5 Slim at Walmart, you'll won't have to deal with the frustrations I did.
These Walmart Black Friday deals also include one of the best console bundles I've come across so far. For just $474.98 you can 🅠get the disc version of the PS5 Slim and an extra DualSense controller. While Walmart insists that's a saving of $95, it actually works out more around the $100 mark if you bought everything separately, which is even better. And trust me, having an extra controller will save you a ton of money in the long run. The official PS5 controller is notoriously prone to stick drift issues, and I've had to replace my own at least three times. So even if you don't have a player two in your life, having that DualSense to spare could save you even more than that $98 this Black Friday.
