Sony Reportedly Prepping PS5 With 6nm AMD CPU


Sony is working on a PS5 redesign set to start production in 2022


quote:

According to a report on DigiTimes, Sony's manufacturing partners are preparing to start production of a redesigned PlayStation 5 model in about a year from now. The new model is expected to be cheaper to build, which will enable the company to cut the price of its latest console, which is in line with typical strategy to cut a console's price after two years on the market. The redesigned unit is projected to have a shorter lead time, which should improve supply.

Oh look, another console reeling from its launch failure because of the hubris of prior generation success.

Replaced after just 2 years? That would have to be a record for the quickest console revision.

I bought an original Xbox One very shortly before the new re-designed Xbox One S was announced. And I was pissed.

I'm never buying a console until a new, redesign version comes out.

Not really. Take a look at the timeline of the PS4 versions: LINK

It’s not. It’s the best console and with that brings stupidity hidden under the mask of jealousy.

Funny since I’ve not been able to locate a current gen ps5 in stock anywhere and haven’t bothered upgrading. Maybe this one will be available for people to actually buy.

And I’m not doing the midnight click thing. It’s 2021. Sony’s been doing this shite for 30 years. It’s always some excuse.

Consoles are not profitable. Why make excess? The money is made elsewhere.

Are they taking the PS4 backward compatibility out like they did for the PS3? First Gen PS3 was able to play PS2 games. They made the system cheaper by taking that out. I hope thats not the case, my PS4 library is huge and my PS4 is on its last leg.
