Earlier this week we got the final dimensions of the PS5 and PS5 Digital Edition

And now photos of the PS5 have been posted by Taiwan's National Communications Commission

To briefly review, Sony says the PS5 measures 153 x 102 x 41 inches (390 x 260 x 104 mm), which is larger than the Xbox Series X Microsoft's console measures 1185 x 594 x 594 inches (301 x 151 x 151 mm) and weighs 98 pounds

Photos show the PS5 placed next to a ruler in various positions, and there is no getting around the fact that this box is a chunky affair Note that, according to Sony, the PS5's dimensions "exclude the largest protrusions" in the design, as well as the base

The PS5 is equipped with a number of features: an 8-core AMD Ryzen CPU, a 103 teraflops AMD Radeon RDNA-2 graphics engine, 16GB of memory, and a fast 825GB SSD with 55GB/second read bandwidth

Excluding the disk drive, the PS5 Digital Edition makes the Xbox Series X look smaller Measuring 153 x 102 x 36 inches and weighing 85 pounds, it is at least lighter than Microsoft's full-size game console

The Xbox Series S is super compact compared to these game consoles, weighing only 425 pounds and measuring 11 x 59 x 26 inches (151 x 65 x 275 mm) However, it also has some tradeoffs in terms of power and components, including GPU performance (4 vs 12 TFLOPS), less RAM, and less storage Also, the Xbox Series S cannot play 4K games

Pre-orders for the PS5 sold out quickly, so it is unlikely that console buyers will necessarily be intimidated by the PS5's size In fact, Sony has apologized for the shortage and stated that more supplies will be available within the next few days

However, one might want to check the Entertainment Center to see if there is room for a PS5 or PS5 Digital Edition
