No way it'll be $350 and $400. There have been news stories that Sony is freakin out because of Xbox pricing, which suggests Sony was probably planning on something like $450/$500 for digital version and $550/$600 for disc version. Apparently they are slashing the price now due to Xbox so I'm guessing it'll be $400/$450 for digital version and $500 for disc version. Sounds like Sony is gonna have to take a big loss to keep it competitively priced with Xbox. They were probably back to the hubris of the PS2, where they think people will just buy the next one at any price. Luckily for consumers Microsoft gave them a rude awakening.

Please or would do well to stay away from such dubious sources. How are they supposed to know what sony is thinking with regards to the pricing? Who or where are these sources? Same sources that say sony PS5 can't handle 4K? The same sources that said PS5 wouldn't come with RT? Same sources that said PS5 is delayed till 2021? The same source that says sony did a last-minute upclock of their GPU to come close to XSX performance and is now overheating as a result?

Or wait... are you your own source? Sure sounds that way. :)

Given your own estimates of of BOM which you then constructed the base estimate and thread on , seems unfair to target his sources.

You should have just ignored him.
