The Internet Weighs in on the PS5 Redesign, and Plenty Think It Looks No Different Than Before

By Dustin Moskovitz

Nearly three years after releasing its next generation of PlayStation home console hardware, Sony announced today that it is phasing out the original design and launching a redesigned PS5 console next month.

Model redesign aside, the new console (also known as the PS5 Slim) reduces the weight of Sony’s ninth-generation console by 18-24%, depending on which model you get. The redesigned PS5 includes more storage, 1TB instead of 825GB, and an increased price for the Digital Edition.

With the announcement of new gaming hardware, users on X (formerly known as Twitter) have turned to the platform to share their thoughts. Some are excited (especially if they did not already buy a PS5), while others are not mincing words on how they feel about the reveal, including poking fun at the fact that the design of the remodel looks a lot similar to its predecessor.

One person noted that the design makes it look like the new PS5 should get checked out by a doctor.

Others were quick to call out the horizontal stand that was also revealed today, which is sold separately. There were doubts about how exactly the lil guy would work, as well as some jokes about the disproportional look.

I, too, am interested to know if the new stand can prevent the console from tipping.

Others were quick to bemoan the PS5 Digital Edition seeing an increase from $399.99 to $449.99. Some are perplexed at the decision and argue that the increased internal storage does not warrant a $50 price hike.

But my personal favorite reaction is from Blessing Adeoye Jr., who created a new “It Can’t Hurt You” meme.

The new PS5 redesign is out next November. Eventually, it will replace the 2020 model once all the current inventory is sold out.
