And the good news, the lower cost console will be available for as low as $1,999 (with no hard drive, disc drive, controller, power etc - all available as a separate package for another $999).
Either
A) a lower cost console PS6 and higher cost console PS6
B) a console PS6 and a portable PS6
C) 2 test chip candidates but only one will ultimately be used in a console
B makes sense because consoles are losing market share to Nintendo portables, phones, and tablets and PC portables (SteamDeck) for years.
None of this solves Sony’s major problem which is a lack of first party exclusives especially if you don’t count the parade of superfluous remasters and remakes. Under Jim Ryan the ‘vision’ was to spam GaaS shooter games (like Disney was spamming Marvel/Star Wars product under Bob Chapek) with plans for 12 of them but both he and that plan have been removed.
