I'm expecting both at $450 or $500 now. Phil indicated recently that he has the support of Satya Nadella to be flexible with the price based on Sony pricing, which sounds like they plan to price match. Meanwhile, I really don't think that the bill of materials difference is all that big, while XSX clearly has the larger and more expensive AMD chipset, PS5 has a more expensive custom SSD and a more expensive controller that is chock full of tech not in the XSX controller, like an internal battery, a touchpad, voice coil actuators in the triggers, haptic feedback grips, and an omni-direction noise cancelling microphone, the SSD and controller will minimize the BOM difference between the two.

I don't know if the Dualsense will impact the RRP of the PS5 they most likely will pick the closest  $?99.00 price point  that they feel is both sustainable and most importantly not so high that they are seen to be overpriced, any extra costs incurred by the boxed  dualsense will most like be offset by the pricing and profit from all those second and third controller sales.
