New PS5 Model Is Lighter Due to Smaller, Worse Heatsink And Runs Hotter

From PSU: “The new, revised models of the PlayStation 5 weigh in at 300 grams (0.66 pounds) lighter than the original models. The big question has been “How?” With the specs and outer form factor the same, what has Sony changed or sacrificed to result in the new model weighing less. The answer is a smaller heatsink, resulting in the revised console running hotter.”
