The disc-based version of the slim PlayStation 5 was $499.99 at launch, but is currently discounted to $449.99 at GameStop, Best Buy, and Amazon. However, if you’d prefer to pick up the digital-exclusive version of the PlayStation 5 Slim, you can find the $449.99 console on sale for $399.99 at Amazon, Target, and Walmart.
These trimmed-down PS5s are equipped with the very same hardware as the older models that will eventually be phased out, but they have a smaller footprint overall and are around two pounds lighter, depending on whether the disc drive is attached. Both consoles are aesthetically similar to the original design, but both feature a small black channel that cuts through both sides.
