New Sony PlayStation 5 model spotted in Japan

Tokyo: A new Sony PlayStation 5 (PS5) console has been reportedly spotted in Japan ahead of scheduled updates to the current PS5 hardware.
According to GizmoChina, the new hardware is going through the certification paces in Japan and just got the construction design certification.
There are indications that the new revision of the Sony PS5 is a CFI-1200 series model with a piece of updated radio equipment, the report said.
The radio equipment in the allegedly refreshed PS5 could mean a lower cost for the PS5 due to its choice of cheaper components. The refreshed PS5 could also provide more efficient use of existing components.
