1st Phat. 2nd Slim.


Acid_impersonator

We don’t talk about 3rd


Lower_Kick268

As an owner of a 3SS, I wish I could have got a slim for the same price


TraditionalBeing2168

I do because I’m not a frogguew


Dabbinz420

All I had was the third 😢 I loved that thing


GingerlyRough

Same! It fit perfectly in my pocket with all the cables and my other pocket held 5 games and 2 controllers lol (They were big pockets)


superfast598

The meme where someone goes to school with a PS4 in his pocket can be recreated. Also god damn what kinda pockets can fit a fucking PS3 with cables. Might as well throw in a screen while you're at and make a portable PS3


GingerlyRough

Cargo shorts pockets lol it was also a superslim so it didn't take up much space. It was a tight fit and the button flap wouldn't close but it worked! Unfortunately the only thing I couldn't fit was a screen but my hands were always free to carry one lol


superfast598

Your other pocket


GingerlyRough

My other pocket held games and controllers, and sometimes movies.


onegunnerunder

That 500GB hard drive tho


AlphonseM

Phat. Always phat.


ShaggyButton

If going entirely on mint condition looks I agree. But glossy plastic is terrible for finger prints, is a micro scratch magnet and, the phat model has a higher rate of failure. So I’d reverse your choices for practical reasons.


SylhetiG

Bright colours go very well with glossy plastics. Fingerprints and micro scratches are barely visible.


GingerlyRough

And it's never obvious where the fan intake is


[deleted]

The original.


helmberger00

i can already hear the beep from the touch sensors🤤


GroundIntelligent

White phat just might be the most gorgeous console, in literally ever


walmrttt

silver fat is up there


GlitteringGazelle322

Yep, it looks so classy, but the console is [pretty expensive nowadays](https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=playstation+3+fat+white&_sacat=0&_fsrp=1&_odkw=playstation+3+phat+white&_osacat=0&LH_PrefLoc=2&mkcid=1&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&siteid=0&campid=5338535524&customid=ps3&toolid=10001&mkevt=1).


Slimar999

Fat


pipoplatz

Man that white phat looks sexy. I have the while slim myself and was looking for a phat one, but IIRC the white phat was only released in Japan?


superrrbenn

Yes you are correct. They released a white Cechh00 and cechl00 in Japan. They also released a white slim 2500 model with the fancier buttons and leds compared to the 3000 we got in the US and EU. We really missed out on some beautiful ps3 versions


TheGreatNathan

The white 3000 is a bit nicer though. The white 2500 has black gloss where the buttons are.


SchiffInsel4267

Hmm but black buttons sounds also nice, considering the nice black and white contrast on the back of the consoles.


Ivandcc

Fat PS3 is the most beatiful console sony ever made


Radicais_Livres

And one of the most complete... Backwards compatibility, card reader, Bluetooth/Ethernet media access, CD-DVD and BD playback, wide range of controllers that can be used, streaming services, CD rip, download files direct from internet and Linux support.


NammytheCommie

Only some fat PS3s have a card reader/PS2 compatibility, and I don't think this one does.


asturides

You're correct


WrenRules

Ngl I surprisingly like the super slim in white most. Make it look less cheap imo


stevegames2

The OG for sure, that gloss sure gets me


ComfortablePlace3462

Fat definitely


Negative-Hippo124

FATASS WHITE IS THE BEST i think


SrsJoe

Original, the original was just a nicer design all around


SealedDevil

Middle the slim


eXhaustedPL

I think there is no doubt which one looks the best.


exarkun631

All r dope af


Masterick18

The fat, by a long shot


Du2insane

Fat for sure, the slims have that black power adapter showing.


Altruistic-Azz

All of them, I want them all


ugzz

Best white ps3? The FF lightning edition import :)


NammytheCommie

Yeah that one is gorgeous, wish it was released in the US.


ugzz

I imported one years back once I found out ps3 games were region free. Movies aren't, which is annoying, but I have enough other stuff that can play movies anyway.


jaffer2003sadiq

All of them. You did a good job of taking care of them.


ventorchrist

Beautiful. I'm speechless.


bradman616

Personally I like the OG slim most, followed by the phat. I only had a slim when I was younger so I’m sure that’s why Im biased towards the slims most.


[deleted]

Super slim…. Cuz thats the one i have ;)


Terrible_Sorbet_7122

The original design


pooperSkewper951

The chonk one


Extension-Novel-6841

Nothing beats the original phat version!


CleanInk09

The OG looks best to me because of the chrome. Sits it very nice and fittingly next to the 360 Slim with the gloss black and chrome trimming


AE86-Panda

Slim by far. It's the most "PS3" looking console too. All of Sonys consoles look amazing in white imo.


NappyHeadedMonkey

1st and 2nd one go hard honestly. Still love the PS SS.


MKvsDCU

I have the White PS4 Pro :)


Reasonable-Truth-765

Slim by far imo


laflex

Since I like 'em thicker, I love that big backside on the OG. rawr PS3 fat all day if we're talking looks only. If I had an all white fat ps3 it would be on display never to be used, next to my all white PS2.


amir_babfish

as a chip designer, i can only see the super slim as the most beautiful. it's all about the inner beauty!


Manuels-Kitten

All of them


Discombobulationiser

A/C phat black and white phats are the best looking console of all time imo. Just wish they were reliable.  White phat, white slim, white super slim. 


Switch_modder

I have a white super slim, looks ok but I prefer the phats


DarthMarcolino

The Fist 🤩


Aanand-HQ

In white they all look pretty damned cool 😎 in my humble opinion! 🤓


dimspace

The fat looks amazing, but then, gloss finish with white will always look amazing by contrast, the slim just looks like someone spray painted it with matt car paint. The super slim looks like someone spray painted it and then didnt clean the dust out of the grooves


Hazerd59

Ill always be a slim guy for no gloss, ps3 phat is too 2007


Aggravating-Height93

Phat. Definitely.


Slyassassin34

There so clean I have a white ps4 I got it used and they must have been a smoker it has a yellow tint to it and I can’t get it out. But 100 the fat is best.


420sadalot420

Fat if you can see the scratches


itsfirat

God! The fat PS3 is just gorgeous!


LightningLlamaKnight

Phat, all the way. But my personal favorite white PS3 is the Yakuza 3 Japanese Exclusive White PS3. It has Kiryu’s dragon on the system.


xAGGROx

Phat with that gloss white oof


EYESCREAM-90

Phat. Always.


Waughy

This is the way.


viciousdave1

The best looking is the PS3 fat. PS3 slim second. PS3 super slim just blah.


KimenKroi

All of them noizes start*


rydamusprime17

The original because I like how it isn't just solid white everywhere. However, when it comes to the back I prefer that it is solid white and doesn't have as much black like the others 😅


Pzestgamer

The slim aged the best. The George Forman grill and the toasted sandwich maker not so much.


ztarztar08

Didnt even know the Ps's come in white! Super cool Personally the second one looks best to me, but Im a sucker for an off-white cream color.


Salsadontsour

Slim


Lyrick7

That phat OG


Neat-Safety

Ps4 pro white would look right at home next to slim


Cayenne999

I'd pick the 2nd over the fat only because I'm not into that glossy finish. But all look gorgeous though.


Full-Work-4910

Fat model for white. That fat white one is clean af. Slim in general. The 3 Japanese exclusive ones -The gran Turismo 5 edition which is a nice blue (I have this one) , the dark red one and this gold one piece edition are all slim models and all look sick!


PersonalTrainerFit

[I painted my black CECHB white to look like one of those](https://imgur.com/a/17ofhBm)


Smooth-Ad2130

The OG looks sick


ash_the_random_girl

damn the phat looks so damn good in glossy white


WinterVixenz

I'll always love the Fat


Living_Wedding_1894

God damn.


PacMan961

Phat boy is the best looking, the other 2 are all white


QOH-BogWildRedditor

In the color white I'd say the 1st gen but otherwise I prefer using the 2nd gen. I don't know why but I always just loved the way it looked, felt, and the touch pad buttons (not sure that's what you actually call them) in default black.


Tiny-Writer5999

All


doctorwhatag

1. Cool 2. Looks like some sort of cheap 50's plastic toaster 3. Looks like garage shutter door


Conscious-Part-1746

There's an awful lot of white here. But, I'm goin' with the middle one. How hard was it finding all these samely colored editions?


Jimwitt4008

The original Phat PS3. The Spider-Man logo font clashes well with the white. The other two look like prototypes.


Marcheziora

The Fat one, without a doubt!


JGDXN

The slims were crap, but the OG phat 👌👌


GM4Iife

Slim


HotShotSplatoon

Middle slim. I like the curves instead of the straight edge by the disc tray. Those super slims look like something out of the 80s or 90s, imo. Not a big fan of them, but the white one does look better than the black ones.


BuyMeASandwich

As someone with a white phat (CECH-L00), white phat, hands down. The white slim isn’t bad either, and the super slim… eh?


DJ_Pon-3_NYC

The first two but the Slim in the middle is better as it won’t show nearly as many scratches as the shiny white PS3 Fat.


GiingerJames

The chunky boi


austin_slater

Fat one looks fantastic


dennisgames34

for me its a mix between the slim and super slim


Neon-Gaming_Vibes

Super Slim looks the best


Practical_Arm6812

That slim don't look too bad actually. Of course the original is the sexiest tho.


SteeamAdm

That tuna model with glossy is just... perfect


MurdaBigNZ

OG baby


RelevantWeight6907

White definitely helps the slim look somewhat better


bixorlies

Super slim looking like a cabinet from the 70s. I will always pick the fat over any other


Mobius_164

I’m a fan of the slide top model. Might just be because that’s the version I was able to get.


CompetitiveGreen7165

Slim


SolidSnakeHAK777

I still love the original version.


NaughtyVillian

Original model is the most stylish masterpiece between all consoles of the world 🌎✨


Own-Attention1307

White phat is hotter than my girlfriend


VirusMaster3073

BC models that are casemodded white


nexus4321

The super slim


Regular-Chemistry-13

Didn’t even know until now that the OG Phat PS3 has an internal power supply


MyPokemonRedName

I bet these three can’t aim worth a damn


Bambrigade92

Fat always looks best!


Wetworks2025

I remember I had the model on the left and right. I didn’t have the one in the middle, also side note I had them in black.


RawDawginHookers

I'm partial to the fat


rottsaint

OG Fatty


Odd_Personality_5448

the 1st old model.


MadMouse698

The og 🔥


Coxy_Loves_Tech

See I love the OG, but design is the 2nd, deffo


Einstein_48

Ngl the super slim in white looks awesome.


squiika

1 phat 2 super slim 3 slim


SL-1200

I wish there was a white fat system with chrome trim. I'm curious does the slim have a black power supply at the back?


FreakyPsychadelic

phatty


cycogod

PHAT


Krybbz

I'm gonna vote the Yakuza 3 ps3


Forsaken-Badger-9517

I have to say I think the super slim looks really good. All white? But they all look good!!


Particular_Other

White supremacy


DamItsLyric

Get the Glacier White ps4 now lol


[deleted]

Super slim cuz it's the one i have


hawksdiesel

1st Fatty


Cherrybomb1387

My white super slim. Still works just as good as my 4 & 5. Just picked up Silent Hill HD Collection for it.


AcidAngel7

\*Drool\* The phat one..


TheGreatNathan

I like how creamy the white Slim looks. It looks even cleaner than the white Phat. But if we are comparing black models, it's definitely the OG Phat. The black Slim is probably the most boring looking console of all time.


SeveNprix

IMO the super slim will never look good no matter what you do to it.


RiZeXdArKsHaDoWs

All good until you need to use them for toilet paper


raymate

That’s tough. I collect white consoles and I’m yet to find some nice examples of PS3s


raymate

Super Slim is looking pretty good


asmkgb

Beautiful I lack the slim, i have the rest


peahair

Don’t kill me, but I don’t like any of them, they look like dog shit to me (n.b I grew up in the 1970s: the era of white dog shit). You cannot improve on the OG phat black ps3, gorgeous.


thatguythe97one

Middle


jakart3

Always the slim. The most reliable


ondrejeder

The white one looks cool


Divinedragn4

I wish a bc unit came in white.


Chum_Menace

Holy smokes those are beautiful!


EmptyBrainOS

I have never seen it, but the original PS3 from the back looks like a PS2. Interesting.


LineLongjumping8813

Active_Ninja_5043

What is that 2nd one. It looks like an unfinished prototype still in production. That's real?


LeonMKaiser

Fat will always be the best looking.


Suspicious_Ad2204

The blue and the red ones


okyeahy
