The Newest PS5 Slim Quietly Gets a Replaceable Clock Battery and New Cooling

A teardown of the Limited Edition Wolverine PS5 Slim by technician Modификator89, reported by VGC on October 2, found a revised EDM-051 motherboard. The clock battery is now a replaceable CR2032 coin cell instead of a soldered part, the HDMI retimer is cheaper, and the cooling uses a new heatsink with a liquid metal setup and better containment, similar to the PS5 Pro. Sony has not announced the revision.
