As reported by Australian publication Press Start, a new skew of the PlayStation 5, known as the CFI-1200 model, has been released, and fans are already getting their hands on it. These types of iterative models are not upgrades in performance or visual design, but instead are meant to slightly adjust the internal architecture of the console by changing materials and\/or their distribution. <\/p>\n

Last year, Australia also was the first to receive the then-new skew of the PlayStation 5 (the CFI-1102A model). A building trend for these PS5 skews is that they\u2019re getting lighter each time. The original disc version PS5 weighs 4.5kg (nearly 10 pounds), while the new CFI-1200 model weighs 3.9kg (about 8 and a half pounds). The digital version saw a similarly proportional decrease. One of the most interesting tidbits relayed by Press Start is that the CFI-1200 disc version weighs what the original digital launch version did.<\/p>\n
