Following speculation that Sony was working on a ‘slim’ model, Sony officially announced the PS3 Slim model on August 18, 2009, at the Sony Gamescom press conference. New features included a slimmer form factor, decreased power consumption, and a quieter cooling system. It was released in major territories by September 2009. At the same time, a new logo was introduced for the console to replace the previous “Spider-Man” wordmarks (named due to their use of the same font as the logos of Sony’s then-current Spider-Man films), with a new “PS3” wordmark evoking the design of the PlayStation 2 wordmark replacing the capitalized PlayStation 3 lettering. This console has an internal hard drive size of 160GB.
