Jranation said: Having a $100 difference between the 2 models will make the digital PS5 look better in the market which will be better for Sony. A $50 difference does not have that big difference. Sort of like how Phones these days have the stadard model and the Plus model. |
I think it is even possible to have
discless 825gb (or 412) for 399, disc standard PS5 499 and 1,6 Tb PS5 at 599. So they have a model they take heavy loss upfront and make up on SW, a standard model that they break even or small loss and the premium model where they profit on the HW but expect little sale.
That way they can have a cheap entry model that would twart Series S, a Premium model for anyone willing and the main model would have great anchor as the middle ground.
