Problems detected on the PS3 console
PlayStation 3 fat
As for all devices, when they are launched for the first time, errors
will appear in terms of the system or in terms of hardware, and this is
what happened with the Sony PS3 fat device, especially the versions that
came in sizes (20 GB, 40 GB)
The worst of these problems is what is known as the problem of the
yellow light, this problem due to the high-temperature device
temperature.
The problem was solved in the following versions of the same device,
but the problem of annoying fan noise also appeared during the long
operation of the device.
The solution to the problem may be simple, which is due to the
accumulation of dust on the fan, and cleaning it will solve the
problem.
PlayStation 3 slim
Although the ps3 slim is the second version after the PS3 fat, it is
obvious that all the problems that appeared in the previous version will
be resolved.
Of course, they did, but other unexpected problems appeared, and among
these problems that users faced is the device not reading the game disc
Also.
Some people complained about the problem of the high temperature of the
device while playing, and also the problem of freezing games or the
system, and the red light, which was previously the yellow light on the
PS3 fat device.
PlayStation 3 super slim
The problem that could be the biggest negative for many users of the
Sony PS3 super slim, which is the external shape and design and ps3
super slim performance.
The design is much smaller and thinner than previous versions, as the
shape and method of placing the game disc inside the device has been
changed as it became manual where it was in previous devices through
drag and drop, and the presence of a sliding cover for the disc
reader.
Also, the disc cover is somewhat thin, so you may hear some noise while
operating the device, and like previous versions, I found some heat
problems in some PS3 Super Slim devices, and most of these problems are
the lack of internal cleanliness of the device.
