PS5 and Xbox Series X will be released at the end of 2020, and set the technical specifications of these two devices. In the table below, you can see a direct comparison of the specifications.

PS5 vs. Xbox Series X: Specs Comparison

The PlayStation 5 has 825 GB of memory, which is slightly less than the Microsoft Xbox X [1 TB]. To this end, Sony allowed the installation of an SSD, and Microsoft released the official memory expansion card for the Xbox Series X, which can be very expensive.

You will be able to connect a regular HDD hard drive to both devices, but Xbox Series X games only run on official cards.

Prices for the PS5 and Xbox series have not yet been determined. So far, there are many rumors suggesting that the amount is about 500 euros, but this is uncertain. Although Microsoft has fully demonstrated the design of the Xbox Series X, Sony is still a little behind. The PS5 presentation should take place in the next few weeks.
