PS5 Pro to simplify replacement of an important component: company accommodates gamers

Sony has introduced innovations to the PlayStation 5 Pro design, paying special attention to usability and long-term maintenance of the device. The most significant change will be a dedicated slot for quick access to the CMOS battery—a key component responsible for storing critical system data.

This is a significant improvement compared to previous models. As a reminder, on PlayStation 4, CMOS battery issues led to severe console malfunctions, prompting Sony to release a special software update.
