Third PS3 slim model. The Blu-ray drive's components were revised (including laser), as well as having the daughterboard controller integrated into the main motherboard. The networking components (LAN and WiFi/Bluetooth modules) were also updated.

Starting with some of the later manufactured date code 1A models, factory firmware with metldr2 was introduced to supersede the exploitable metldr that allowed the installation of CFW (Custom Firmware).

The "Yellow Light of Death" sequence was changed yet again with this revision, where the power LED simply turns off after the initial green, and the three sequential beeps are no longer heard.
