Sony PlayStation 5 Overview:

There are two variants of Sony PlayStation 5. The only difference between the two is the availability of optical drive, since the standard edition is equipped with a 4K UHD Blu-ray drive that the Digital Edition lacks.

The new Sony PlayStation 5 sports a futuristic look. Sony is right on its claim that the design is bold, stunning, and unlike any previous generation of PlayStation.

The black and white color scheme on the console matches the DualSense controller that the company showcased months ago. It is well complemented by the blue lighting effect as well.

The Standard Model is recognizable thanks to the bulge because of the incision of the disc drive. The Digital Edition doesn’t have that and is thus, less bulky.

The console, as revealed by Sony sands vertically, however, it can also be placed horizontally on a flat surface. According to The Verge, the stand supports both horizontal and vertical orientation.

It is clear from the picture above that the stand on the Standard Sony PlayStation 5 is different than that of the Digital one. Maybe it has something to do with the extra bulge as Sony has already clarified that there will be no performance difference between the two variants.
