According to the report, the PS5 Slim is set to hit the shelves in the United States on November 10, with the Spider-Man 2 bundle of the PS5 Slim arriving a couple of days earlier, on November 8.

Sony claims that the PS5 Slim is 30% smaller and lighter, with a glossy top and a matte bottom. The performance remains the same as the regular PS5 model.

Sony has added a bump on the side for the disc drive, which can be taken off and replaced. It now has two slots on each side and, instead of just one USB-C and USB-A port in the front like the current PS5, it has two USB-C ports. The new PS5 comes with a horizontal stand, and Sony offers a separate vertical stand for $29.99, which works with all PS5 models.
