New PS5 Model Seemingly Registered By Sony, But Is It PS5 Pro?

New PS5 Model Seemingly Registered By Sony, But Is It PS5 Pro?

The timeline for a PS5 Pro is intriguing, though, given the PS4 Pro was released days before the PS4’s third birthday. If the PS5 followed a similar release schedule, the gaming community wouldn’t see a PS5 Pro until November 2023. It’s entirely possible that the redesign is still in the works and may not launch until next year, but the gap between the registration of this model and the release that would satisfy the PS4 Pro timeline is a full year and a half. Furthermore, it’s only been a year and a half since the initial PS5 launch, and while a PS5 Pro or similar product may be in development at PlayStation, it seems a bit early in the console’s life cycle to already have a PS5 Pro registered in Japan.
Further PS4 comparisons may in fact confirm that the new model will not be a PS4 Pro. PS4 model numbering is very similar to the PS5’s, taking on the form of CUH-XXXX and beginning with CUH-1XXX. Unfortunately for PS5 Pro hopefuls, PS4 Pro launched with CUH-7XXX codes; even the PS4 Slim launched with CUH-2XXX numbering. If PS5 follows similar numbering, it’s likely that the PS5 CFI-1200 involves important changes to the internal architecture as opposed to flashy new features, increased power, or an updated aesthetic. PS4 CUH-1200 launched with a totally different interior that included redesigned power supplies, new eject buttons for discs, and smaller motherboards. These sorts of updates could be what are in store for the next PS5 redesign, and though there’s plenty of value here for hardware, it’s unlikely this is the PS5 Pro that fans are hoping for.
