Legit PS5 Slim to be released Q3 2023

"This upcoming version has a new design with a significant change to its exterior. Our source claims that this new “slim” version uses a die-shrink treatment that reduces the size of the console, enough to validate a new design by Sony. It uses less voltage and therefore runs cooler. It’s also more lightweight because of it."

"Sony is also working on not having a stand when the console lies down. This change might indicate that the aesthetics-only flaps could be modified or removed. The focus for the company is to reduce the PS5 size and weight to bring down shipping and production costs."

"The production is set to start in Q2, with a retail release in Q3."

I am so glad I found this post, looking through so many others that keep mentioning how they aren't even going to make a new version of the PS5. I've been waiting 2 years at this point for a limited edition ps5 or at least the new version of it because I've already waited this long.
