PlayStation Portal Remote Player  

Released earlier in 2024, the PlayStation Portal Remote Player lets you access your PS5 games over a home WiFi connection without turning on the TV. It features an 8-inch display, 60fps at 1080p resolution and lets you access your games library on the console.

Playstation 5 Digital Slim and Disc Slim 

The Sony PlayStation 5 is the most popular gaming console on the market. So if dad is a gamer, chances are he would love one of these gifts wrapped on the table.  

Vodacom online has two options available: The slim digital edition for a dad who is download savvy, and a slim disc edition, of dads who like to keep a physical collection of the games they own. Both consoles can be purchases once off or on a contract deal. 

Find the PlayStation 5 Slim Digital Edition Console here and the PlayStation 5 Slim Disc Console here.  

Xbox Series S and Series X 

The Xbox has always had a cult following and this is no different for the Microsoft owned console brand’s 9th generation console either.  

It’s hard to differentiate between the Xbox Series X and S: both can play the same new games and are backwards compatible with 100s of games from previous gen consoles. Both also have fast loading times and can play videos at 4K resolution.  

The difference comes in onboard memory size, where the X has 1TB and the S has 512MB. Another difference is in-game resolution quality, where the X maintains it’s 4K capabilities while the S steps down to 1080p high definition. 

Fid the Xbox Series S and the Series X on Vodacom.
