The first image of the new console PlayStation 5which most people have dubbed Slim, has allegedly leaked online. The image leaked earlier today from a Chinese forum, with the source claiming that the image is of the console's packaging (box).
While forum users discussed the reported specification and dimensions of the console, observations were made that are in line with previous reports, specifically those discussing the shape, design and branding of the console.
噂: ディスクドライブ着脱式新型PS5 のパッケージを入手したという中国からのリーク(信憑性は不明)
-高さは5cmほど低くなっているが厚さは変わらずスリムではなくリニューアルモデル
-カバーには黒いスリットが追加。着せ替え廃止?

The supposed first image of the PlayStation 5 "Slim"
Admittedly, the image is quite grainy and enlarged to the point where very little is recognizable - but that's enough. Nobody has yet been able to verify the legitimacy of the image. However, the images appeared on the same forum that first leaked images of the PlayStation 5 in 2020.
Recently court documents that came to light during the trial Microsoft vs. FTC seemed to refer to a 'PlayStation 5 Slim' to be launched later in 2023.
It's also worth noting that the leak indicates that it's 5 centimeters smaller than the standard model of the console. And that, despite its plates having a kind of "cut", it would be possible to use the one from the previous console.
