      No. They have 1 model with 2 cases. They use the same internal components, but the slim has a more compact cooling solution.

      Only difference specs-wise is that the Slim has a ~1 TB SSD compared to the ~850 GB SSD

        Thank you for the correction! I thought it was like the PS3 where there was different hardware inside the different models. Well, some of them.

        …but wait, if all the internals are the same size, why wasn’t the regular one the size of the Slim? Is it just space from having the disc drive removed?

      Im a pc user, and the pc world is still a lot more complex than just “regular, slim and pro” versions. Different hardware and combinations males it a lot more complex.
      You could say “low, medium and high end pc” but that means nothing as even a medium pc could have different cpu’s, gpu’s or even ram timings…

      But yes, the different console versions is stupid
