Yes OK PlayStation 5 It is not even a year old yet, information is already emerging about a possible hardware revision that would be planned for next year.
PlayStation 5 to receive an ‘update’ to 6 nm in 2022
We know that a revision of an original hardware is already a classic in the world of consoles, like models Xbox One X waves PlayStation 4 Pro. However, a revision with a year and a half of the original model on the market does not seem to be the general norm, but it could be happening, according to the report of Digitimes.
According Digitimes, Sony is developing a revision of the SoC designed by AMD for the PlayStation 5, which would be manufactured in 6 nm. This would not add more performance, it would be the same SoC chip, but with a smaller process node, reducing the node from 7 nm to 6 nm. The reason for doing this would have to do with reducing the temperature, a recurring theme with the PlayStation 5 since launch and that has delayed the inclusion of some functions, such as the possibility of adding an SSD to the storage of the game console. This is also going to mean that the console will consume less power. As the temperature and consumption are reduced, it could also generate less noise.

Although this information may disappoint some players, it would not mean a big change if you already have the PlayStation 5. The source also states that the new model would not have major changes on an aesthetic level, but it is not mentioned if there will be any size reduction for the console.
At this time, the PlayStation 5 is having some stock issues alongside the Xbox Series S / X.
