500$ is really suprising
considering how the xbox one x pro version is 400$ atm.
Are the consoles not that powerfull or is xbox making quite the loss per unit sold to try and scare sony away.
Pretty sure both Sony and MS will be selling at a loss (assuming that PS5 with the optical drive is $500). I expect the following for Playstation models...
PS4 Slim - $150 (cease production in 2023)
PS4 Pro - $250 (cease production in 2025)
PS5 Digital - $400
PS5 Optical - $500
I expect all current X1 variations to immediately cease production. Whatever stock is on the shelves or in warehouses will be sold through and then there will only be the XSeS or the XSeX on the market.
