Sony PlayStation 5 could be the heaviest console around

15 July 2020
An Amazon listing reveals the hefty weight of Sony's next-gen console.

Sort by:

Exactly! It is going to be on the TV Cabinet or a Desk Forever after it is purchased. It is not a controller that you have to hold all the time. It is neither a deal maker or a deal breaker.

            Bogdan, 16 Jul 2020Yeah, gaming PC's are more powerful, but console gamin... moreNot just that, games are more optimized for consoles so gameplay is better with consoles. once, I had both, I figured that I don't care for a better graphics, I care for better gameplay. some would say FPS are better on PCs, but I bought FragFX so its solved.

And at 36 years old I am not like I was at 20, I don't have the time and I don't feel the pleasure anymore in buying PC parts, looking for the best options, checking reviews, thinking of best compatibility between components, changing details in games, etc.
              I just want to insert the disc and start playing.
              Also, I have a company laptop for everything else, so no need for a PC just for gaming.
              And I am sure that majority of the console gamers out there think similar.

                          It is not a dumbbell. Why do we care about the weight of a home gaming console?

                              I used to have the PS3 phat and that definitely was the heaviest console I've ever owned followed by the og Xbox from 2001. But none of it matters when the console isn't going to travel with us.

                              With that said, I now prefer the slim models for each PlayStation console. I'll wait 3+ more years instead for a lighter, slimmer one that doesn't use too much wattage. I love my PS4 slim. Perfect console for my needs.
