In the design, we will find the difference is that there are now four separate panels of the cover, the top part will have a glossy finish, while the bottom part remains the matte that we know.
In the case of the PS5 Digital Edition, you can remove the lower right panel to accommodate the disk drive which will be sold separately at cost 80 dollars So the design is identical to the PS5 Slim, the reader still has no official date.
Storage will come with a 1TB SSD.
