If you want a brand new PS3 with all the capability of what came before, but at a much cheaper price, buy this system. Better fan, better processing, just a better system compared to the original launch consoles and some of the mid-level later versions. The flash memory isn't much, but you can easily add an aftermarket HDD (don't forget to get the mounting bracket) with upgrade instructions to be found all over the Internet. After my old fat PS3 60GB finally died this year, I did a lot of research on the other PS3 models. I knew that I didn't want a used system, didn't want to spend more than $150 if I was getting another PS3, and wanted at least a 500GB HDD so that I could shift to only downloaded games. By buying this system for $90 and the 500GB HDD with bracket for another $40, I saved between $50 and $70 from buying a similarly speced out PS3 that was brand new. Mounting and formatting the new HDD took less than an hour, and then I was up and running. Very happy with this purchase, and would recommend it to any PS3 owners that want another new system without putting a major dent in their pocket.Read full review

The PS3 Super Slim is an excellent system and I have to say that 12GB of space is actually enough as long as you're not putting photos and movies on the device. You always have the option of buying the require PS3 Super Slim hard drive caddy and installing a hard drive yourself. It's easy. Just watch a youtube video on how to do it. Servers for the PS2 were on for 16 years. So either way, this is a great system and support for it will be around for a long time! Side note: I do game console repair... You should NEVER put modern game consoles in enclosed spaces, like an entertainment center. It will cause the system to over heat and then the solder will melt. That's what causes the RED LIGHT OF DEATH. It's best to keep your system on a milk crate, out in the open so it has plenty of room to breath. You can watch youtube videos on how to avoid this too!Read full review

This Console Supports Blu Ray,3D and many more.XBOX 360 doesn't have blu ray feature.I bought this Product, Because it's latest and still in Production.and Also have Thousands of Games across,PS4! So if you willing to Buy a PS4, think Twice. Because If you're a gamer, You'll find more games on PS3. It's true that PS4 has More Graphics Quality and Features. But PS3 still on the Market.and more Support for it. Xbox one and PS4 has good design and new Features. I like it's easy setup and features. But I don't like it's design. and Controller also still the same design as on PS1.(rather than Bluetooth and sixaxis Dualshock on PS3) 12GB SSD Flash Memory may not enough for DLC's and Updates.So you will need to Buy a 500GB 2.5" HDD.(I prefer 500GB,5400RPM,9.5mm Height)7200RPM will not suits,Produce more heat. Thinner HDD's(7mm) would not support,But didn't try. To Upgrade HDD, you will need Mounting bracket.on eBay unofficial brackets price trending at 2.75USD.(can install without bracket,but risky.Try google) Best things about this Console - Blu ray support, Bluetooth Controller, Full HD support(Need Full HD TV and HDMI Cable),Dual Voltage (110V or 220V),2.5" Common Laptop,Notebook HDD's will fit. You will need Good TV, such as SMART TV or HDTV. I have Normal 29" TV,Composite cables are useless for Normal TV's,So I bought a PS3 to Component cable.and it works.(Your TV must have Component input,at least 480i or 480P) To Hack this Console, You will need ODE-Optical drive emulator(Cobra,E3 Flasher,etc..)and cannot jailbreak.(Firmware Version would be up to 3.55, that's why). I bought this for 200USD including shipping.(Fedex Express)and it was a Good deal.(from Canada,US Canada PAL version) Overall I like this Console, not the Design. PS3 games aren't cheap. You will need more USD's if you aren't a Resident of U.S.A. (example.45USD including shipping to Worldwide for Last of us.) Anyway if you don't have XBOX 360 or need to buy a better console under 200 bucks. Sieg Heil!Read full review
This was advertised as a NEW PS3, Open Box item. The PS3 was obviously used for a fair amount of time and was not just an open Box item. However, works without issue and was quite cheap compared to a new product so it is not bad enough for me to need to return the item. The PS3 did not have any noticeable scratches but did have dust build up on the exhaust side of the unit. The operating system was defaulted so it had no user data on it and it was otherwise clean and new looking. The warranty sticker is still intact so it is easy to see that it has never been opened and is not a repaired unit. For the included peripherals, A new unused DS3 Controller and was included. The power and AV cables were obviously twist tied and put back into a plastic sleeve to appear as though it was new and unused but the ties and plastic sleeves are not what is used from production on new box PS3. All in all, it is a good product that works well and was sold at a very reasonable price. I am happy with this purchase. It is a good used PS3.Read full review

I bought a PS3 for my in-laws because they were in the market for a new DVD/Blu-ray player. I told them that for the 100 or so dollars they would spend on a 'smart' Blu-ray player would be much better spent on a PS3. It really does do about everything they could want. Plays almost every kind of video codec (i.e. .mp4, .avi, .mpeg, XviD-DivX)except for .mkv which I am sure will eventually be supported via an update. It also allows streaming from Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, Pandora and it also will play movies and music stored on another Windows PC in another room. The only thing that this particular PS3 doesn't come with is infinite storage. That's really why I went with the 12GB model was so I could put in a 1 TB laptop hard drive and then it will be the perfect home entertainment system.
