    18:47 It's worth noting that the PS3 had it's first node shrink from 90nm to 65nm during the FAT model then the 65nm to 40nm happened within the slim's cycle, so a node shrink never happened in the transition from Fat->Slim or Slim->Super Slim and the PS2 had multiple node shrinks in it's FAT model phase as well.

    While the removable disc drive might over complicate the product line, it's cool that years down the line, there will be plenty of easily replaceable, first-party OEM parts if the disc drives start failing. You just buy a new drive and pop it in. No screws, no ribbon cables. Pretty neat.
    *Edit*
    I know that the drive requires internet connection. My hope is that Sony uses software patches to allow people to replace them. The online connectivity is a piracy measure that Sony had to implement because of regulations. Every console made after 2005 will eventually be e-waste when they shut down their servers, but it will be a long time before the PS5 reaches that point.

    The acoustic measurements on the plane were nice (I would recommend a tinnier angular spacing to make the graph less choppy). However, because sound can be emitted in all directions, this result doesn't mean that the total acoustic energy radiated by both devices is the same. Measuring total acoustic power will give you that information. Is a more tedious measurement to do, but it does not require an acoustic chamber 🙌🏻

    I must say that Linus nailed it when he was talking about the power and reset for eject button being nearby each other. I can't tell you how many times I've accidentally ejected to this or accidentally put it in sleep mode. This is a major big welcome in my opinion that will probably get overlooked, but I'm glad that line is called it out. And I must say that overall the system looks a little bit more appealing to me being smaller. I'm probably going to wait off on the pro model, assuming that happens. But it's hard to argue that they made the right decisions when it comes to the design on this thing.

      Unfortunately it looks like they're still going to need regular maintenance, and often. I kind of wish Sony inferred with their designs that you should lay the console down flat.
      At least once a week I have to service a PS5 due to overheating, most of the time the top half (area that has less conductive material and more heat when standing upright) of the chip is covered in oxidation and is effectively repelling all that liquid metal off of the mating surface.

So i dont know about you and your PC never needing to maintain anything... Point is a Console is just different than a PC while you might just change the Thermalpast easy on the CPU or change the GPU anyways and never have that Issue to begin with (the other Guy buying it might run into Problems though).

    Regarding the USB ports, Sony's own site says the original/launch PS5 has three 10Gbps ports (1x USB-C on the front and 2x USB-A on the back) and the front USB-A port is "High Speed" USB (they don't specify the speed but "High Speed" refers to USB 2 or 480Mbps) and not two 5Gbps and two 10Gbps as mentioned in the video. The only change the Slim brings in regards to the USB ports is the front USB ports are now both USB-C with one being a 10Gbps port and the other a "High Speed" port according to Sony. This means that the USB ports are all the same speed as the original PS5 but the only difference is the USB-A port on the front has been replaced by a USB-C port at the same speed.

    I do wish the included disk drive came with both the cover to run it with and w/o the disk drive (because it makes no sense to me to buy the disk drive-less version, only to buy one later), but I'm sure a company like Dbrand will just give you the option via their darkplates in the future anyway to just buy just that one plate separately.

    pretty sure those weight difference percentages are based on whether you have the disc drive or not. also games have always kept the power usage high when minimised (god of war on ps4 was crazy) but as soon as you open a media streaming app or put console to sleep it will shift the game into a suspended state, so closing your games isn’t a must as stated

      The OG PS5 (2020-2021) Used an older more inefficient 7nm APU so despite having more heatsink it had issues overheating. Trust me I owned a launch PS5 and it overheated and killed its own motherboard, I then got the refreshed 2022 model with the new APU and even less heatsink and that thing is still going strong, I also picked up one of these slims a couple weeks ago and happy to report the heat coming out the back doesn't feel any hotter than the fat 2022 PS5.
