I look before making any purchase from time to time as the product was rated I done even with the Playstation 3 Super Slim.
First, the ratings have deterred me, but because I could relate a low flash Amazon offer, it was probably worth a try, I could indeed send them back.
Now for the PS3:
In my opinion, the Playstation is processed well and verhätlnismäßig quality in spite of plastic. She looks no means cheap or too plastic. But for taste not argue;)
Now to the volume:
I can not understand at all that some write here the Playstation would be too loud. She is loud only at the moment by a Blueray is inserted. These are no more than 5 seconds. Then it is quiet easy throughout the entire operation. In films, I find it even quieter than in games. Of course, you can hear the the Playstation 3 is turned on, but who already feel this faint sound as loud, which must be unique noise sensitive or pressing his ear to the Playstation. I use neither a stereo system, nor do I have the TV set when playing loud. Comparison, I have here the first Playstation 3 are, which is very much louder.
Conclusion: If "low" a new Playstation 3 would have, which can calm resort to the super slim. She is powerful, space-saving and pleasantly quiet.
