The editors liked
Lighter design
Massive storage capacity
Easy hard drive access
Sony’s kept some of the best bits about the PS3 - like the easy to reach USB ports and swappable hard drive (Although 500GB will be enough for all but the biggest video hoarders) and trimmed everything down. Measuring 290 x 230 x 60mm
The new PS3 Super Slim is as wide as its predecessor
But several inches less deep
And slightly thinner. It’s impressive that Sony’s managed to whittle it down so
The PlayStation 3 still offers palpable gaming and entertainment value
With a nearly unrivaled library of games
Strong array of streaming services (including Netflix
Amazon
Hulu Plus
HBO Go and Vudu) and the fact that it doubles as a great DVD/Blu-ra
The editors didn't like
Cheap design
Price
No HDMI
The PS3 Super Slim is lighter
Yes
And smaller
Just. But
Well
That’s about it. It’s slightly quieter than the second generation PS3
But otherwise identical. You get two USB ports on the front
But no support for PS2 games like you did with the first PS3 models. And with the glossy black plastic
It looks a lot cheaper.Worse still
The disc tray is a real let down. This isn’t a slot-loading o
Sliding-top disc door feels downmarket
No IR port limits universal remote compatibility
PS4 will pick up momentum in 2015 and beyond as it gains more exclusive next-gen titles

While we love the Sony PS3, and how it’s evolved to become so much more than a games machine, we’re not too impressed with this model, which is cheaper without Sony really passing on the savings. There’s absolutely no reason to upgrade from the second ...

The Super Slim PlayStation 3 shrinks a powerful gaming machine into an even tinier package while maintaining the same features as its predecessors: a great gaming library and a strong array of streaming services, including Netflix, Amazon, Vudu, and NFL S

The latest PS3 slims down to its smallest size ever while retaining everything we like -- and a few things we don't -- about the PlayStation 3 gaming console.

La PlayStation 3 todavía ofrece un valor palpable, con una juegoteca casi sin rival, fuerte gama de servicios de 'streaming' (Netflix, Amazon, Hulu Plus, HBO Go y Vudu) y el hecho de que también hace las veces de reproductor de DVD/Bluray. Servicios opcio
La bandeja deslizante le resta atractivo, la falta de un puerto IR limita la compatibilidad con controles remotos universales; la PS4 tomará impulso en 2015 y más adelante a medida que recibe más títulos exclusivos de próxima generación
Aunque comenzará a ceder su posición a la PS4 en 2015, la PlayStation 3 sigue ofreciendo mucho por tu dinero....
