The new PlayStation 5 revision is lighter than the 2021 version

30 August 2022
Which in turn was lighter than the launch model. This is for both the Disc and Digital Editions and comes just as Sony prepares to raise prices around the world.

      Anonymous, 30 Aug 2022ps4 is enoughUm, no. PS5 can play PS4 games. That's like saying PS2 is enough when the original PS3 phat could play PS1 and PS2. I prefer PS5's much faster loading speeds. Takes 2 minutes to load up FF15 on a PS4 slim base model.

      Too bad gaming doesn't quite captivate me at 41 than it used to at ages 7 through 25. Hence, why I always prefer older PS1 and PS2 due to nostalgia and I had more passion for games at that time.

      I'm actually more interested in the Steam Deck 2. I prefer my gaming devices to be portable. The Steam Deck 1 is a brick but better like that than being tethered to your TV.

        Why does this matter, when you still can't buy this in mass? Lol.

          The quality has probably gone down as well, previous Playstation revisions have usually meant a cheaper feeling product, yet this time they have made it more expensive!

            Probably the lightest it can be and it's last iteration, then Sony would announce the hefty 5kg PS5 Pro in late 2023.

                  Why would you put a picture of a disc model and disc-less model. Ofc the disc model weighs more, make both images disc-less or with disc. Then it would actually catch more eyes.

                      Forget this, I'd rather have a PS5 lite which can play games at 1080p high capped at 60 fps or something similar to Xbox Series S.

That was like 2 years ago and PS5 consoles are working perfectly fine because ofcourse memory modules are working well within specs and Sony engineers actually know what they are doing, vs some youtuber guy. He's posting clickbaity sensationalist videos when it benefits him, just like any other youtuber.

                            The incident between steve and austin was so funny. Where steve just bullied video of austin about the new revised cooling solution of ps5. And in addition to that Arun (mrwhotheboss) made a bs funny comment without knowing any engineering and scientific factor of hardware thermal solution lol. And pcmr nerds bullied him so badly. Although later he deleted the comment.
                            I've no complain about Austin. That guy still tries to know about complicated tech products. But the truth is YouTubers like mkbhd, mrwhotheboss, dave2d, ijustine, maxtech, jonathan and some others aren't actual real tech YouTubers in the first place. They're more like daily life tech vloggers. And ironically most of them are Apple based people.
