New look for PS5 console this holiday season
Smaller PS5 design comes with 1TB storage for PS5 and PS5 Digital Edition; new model provides option to add an Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc Drive to PS5 Digital Edition.
When I bought my PS5 a few months ago I considered waiting for a PS5 Slim in the hopes that it would be less fuckin ugly. Glad I didn't wait, because they managed to make it worse by basically slapping the disc drive to the side.
Yeah, seriously. The addon drive looks uglier than the Hunchback of Notre Dame.
They look.... the same to me. Any comparison photos?
Oof, that one with the blu ray drive looks far worse now.
They really mixed it up.
The new PS5 has been reduced in volume by more than 30%, and weight by 18% and 24% compared to the previous models. There are four separate cover panels, with the top portion in a glossy look, while the bottom remains in matte.
Hm…I mean, I’m not sure I’d call it a “new look”, but I suppose there are some changes.
Honestly I like the look of the consoles however the pricing is incredibly stupid imo. 450 for diskless is pointless when the disked model is 500. 50$ doesn't seem like much of an incentive to save by going diskless. The better option would've been to charge 400 for diskless and then 100 for the drive rather than 80.
Still looks like an air purifier / conditioner unfortunately.
I was holding off with upgrading my PS4 Pro with SSD but when I saw new PS5 leaks I went with XSX. Sorry, that thing has no place in an adult living room lol.
Fridge gang vs wifi router gang
Toaster gang.
Yeah, why they have to make it so curvy in the first place? And then they have to add a stupid extra base just to get it to not roll around. Too many designers in the kitchen IMHO.
I also like making dumb decisions based purely off of something or someone's looks
I'll take the bait. I consider both consoles evenly matched but from the perspective of Sony diehard it's quite attractive value proposition:
