At the same price. Don’t forget that important point.
Silver lining is that at least you can buy a regular M2 NVME SSD, unlike with Xbox. Had to pay something like €150 for a proprietary 1TB drive because of my life choices T_T
What could even be the point of this? What are they saving per machine? That is already lossmaking.
And with the cost of HDD storage since original release, storage costs almost nothing these days.
This just makes no fucking sense. They stand to gain presumably almost nothing, and instead will piss people off
Instead of 1TB, the updated digital version of the base PS5 now comes with an 825GB SSD
So Sony saved themselves like…$10?
Didn’t the original also come with 825GB? I seem to recall that since it was specially designed by Sony for “enhanced speeds” on the PS5, that they only made it 825GB.
Multiply that by how much they sold this console and you have the final price.
So…$10?
