Ok so Sony looked for ways to cut the production cost of PS3 but did anyone expect the Slim to be such as cheap, nasty piece of kit. So it does the same as the older Phat model but I think Sony have really rushed this revised model out far too soon.
One of the main reasons I stayed well away from an Xbox was because of the poor quality of the machine, When the Phat PS3 arrived it really put the xbox to shame, but this new slim model has really wound me up.
Having traded in a perfect, very quiet 80gig phat for a slim, I feel really let down by Sony,not only does it look cheap and tacky in the flesh comapred to a phat, it's noisy and clunky.
Ive had 3 exchanges and still wasnt happy as Ive been very unhappy with the fan noise,blu ray access noise and the stupid amount of vibration the thing makes no matter what surface it sits on. Ive also noticed that the claim it's quieter has been dropped in many adverts for the slim
id like to know some of you guys opinions on the build quality of the ps3, are you happy with what you have or has the slim put you off ps3 altogether. Having had this experience with the slim ive now gone out cut my losses and repurchased a phat model which im far more happier with, although not as quiet as my oringinal phat it still puts the slim model to shame .Im happy knowing my ps3 has been made with better parts and looks far better in its glossy coat!
