A revealing PlayStation 5 teardown video has compared the launch PS5 against the new revised PS5. It appears Sony has cut a crucial corner to help turn the popular console from a loss-making product into profit-providing hardware. The thorough teardown uncovered exactly how the new PS5 manages to be 300 g/0.66 lb lighter.

It's obvious that a huge one-fan solution, etc. for the PS5 were the wrong approach and it also demonstrates what many experts have voiced out that the PS5 is an overpriced router that's designed inferior to XSX, and the XSX is also rubbish but it Is at least solid and efficient, so, I don't see no PS5 Pro coming to this very poorly designed architecture without a serious major overhaul to the PS5 designs and adding just an updated SoC will not be the only solution.

Fan seems better though with the curved blades providing a greater surface area to move air around. I am still trying to get my hands on a PS5. I absolutely and completely refuse to purchase a PS5 off scalpers. Doing so would just contribute to the problem.
